Chapter 7
"So, how'd it go?" I asked as I sat down and leaned back against the side of the bathtub. Lucifer placed some of the shampoo in his hand before massaging it into my hair. "How did what go?" he asked.
"Turning her human," I spoke referring to the woman from his office. "Oh," he spoke as if he had totally forgot about it, "It was nothing much," he spoke not wanting to talk about it.
I stayed quiet whether to push the topic or not. "So..." I trailed off, "You and her, huh?" I questioned. He let out a sigh as if he was already bothered by it. "It's in the past," he mumbled.
I hummed in response. Silence took over again as he was gently massaging my head.
I took a sip of my drink before placing it back outside the tub. "Why did you guys break up?" I asked. He let out a groan, "Not that I respect your curiosity but I need you to drop it this one time he informed me. I frowned a bit wanting to know what his past relationship was like. I stood up in the tub and rinsed out the shampoo from my hair before sitting back down from him to condition me.
As he opened the bottle, his phone rang and he dried his hand before pulling out his phone and answering it. "What?" his voice growled to the other person on the line. Silence filled the room and Lucifer let out a frustrated groan before he said his byes and hung up.
"Sorry but I got to take care of something. I will be back to condition your hair. Stay put," he spoke behind me. I hummed in response not bothering to look at him. The room went quiet and I knew he had flashed out. "Sure you'll be back," I mumbled in sarcasm.
I sat in the bath and drank the rest of my drink out before getting up and conditioning my hair myself. After finish washing my hair, I rinsed out my whole body before hopping out. I wrapped myself in my towel and flashed into my room. Walking over to my closet, I dried myself off and dropped my towel before putting on a pair of shorts and crop top with a cardigan. I combed my hair and dried it. Flashing back to Lucifer's room, I walked out only to meet Sam and Heath. I nodded to them as I walked down the stairs with them trailing behind me.
"Where's Lucifer?" I asked.
"Office," Heath answered. I turned a corner downstairs and walked over to Lucifer's office. Opening to door, I looked up at the ceiling and sighed as I saw who was inside. It was Quinn and that woman from earlier. I had thought she left a while now.
I looked over to Lucifer who was clearly pissed off in his chair. I looked around the room to see Axel was also here along with Micah. "Didn't I tell you I would be back?" Lucifer growled towards me as I walked into the room. Although he was mad when he spoke to me, it was clear I wasn't the reason why he was mad...I hope.
I shrugged, "It's been 20 minutes already and I would've been looking like a raisin," I replied walking over to Axel and Micah who was leaning against the wall.
"Sunshine," Axel chirped as he hugged me. "Hi," I squealed as I hugged him. A smile rose to his face as he pulled away. I then tackled Micah with a hug to which he chuckle. "Angel," Micah greeted me.
I heard a scoff behind me and I looked to see it was that woman. I rolled my eyes and looked at Lucifer.
"Why is she still here? I thought you said everything was done?" I questioned.
"No, you assumed everything was done," he corrected me. I heard a snicker and looked over to her to see her eyes were black.
My eyes widened a bit shocked she was still a demon, "Why is she still a demon? I thought you took care of her?" I hissed to Lucifer.
Her just rolled his eyes, "You keep assume things and we're in the midst of discussing it but you keep talking," he hissed at me.
"No offence but how hard is it to write her off as human?" I asked.
"Because we're making a new contract for me bitch," the woman spoke.
Lucifer glared at her to which she shrugged. "Call me a bitch one more time and see what the fuck happens you rebound," I gritted through my teeth as I tensed up. She stood up from her seat and turned to look at me with a smirk on her face.
Axel shook his head, "Don't do something you'll regret," he warned her.
"Liana, you better sit the fuck down," Lucifer's voice ordered from behind his desk.
Liana opened her mouth, "Bitch," she called out.
I went to tackle her but Micah quickly stopped me. I looked at him about to slap him for stopping me. "I know you're mad but she's not worth it," he spoke in a soft tone. I looked back at her to see she was still smirking.
I loosen my fist and slowly nodded as I agreed with Micah.
"Who know? Maybe Lucifer will leave you and get back with me or even have a future together. He'll leave you ass for me any day," she chuckled from across the room. Something in my clicked and it looks like Micah saw it because his eyes widened as he looked at me.
I flashed over to Liana and slammed her onto the desk whilst having a grip around her neck. "Talk now bitch," I hissed down at her as she was gasping for air.
"Skylar," Lucifer sternly called my name. I looked across the desk to see him now standing up. "What?" I growled at him. His eyes blacked as his lips was now in a straight line. It was clear he was furious now.
"Release her," he ordered me. I shook my head and looked down at her. "No, she wants to talk all this shit now she can't fight. What happen to bragging about all those centuries you were a demon?" I asked her. Her grip tightened around my wrist as she was trying to pry my off her but she couldn't.
"SKYLAR!" Lucifer's voice boomed through the room as he grabbed my hand and yanked it off her. I looked up to see his eyes boring into mine. "Leave the room right now. Go do something," he ordered. I snatched my hand out of his grasp and looked at Liana who was now standing up trying to catch her breath.
"Now!" Lucifer shouted.
I gave him the middle finger and looked back at Liana who was staring at me without any expression. "You better hope you get that renewal contract because if not, and I find out you're human, I'm coming for your ass," I smirked at her. I watched as pure horror took over her face.
Lucifer let out a growl, "Do I have to drag you out?" he questioned.
I rolled my eyes and turned on my heels walking out the room. As I walked out the room, I slammed the door shut and walked towards the kitchen. I grabbed a bottle of rum and sat down with it by the island before pouring myself a glass. I heard footsteps enter the room and I turned to see Heath and Sam standing by watching over me. Soon, Quinn came in and I couldn't help but scoffed before chugging my drink.
"Mind if I join you?" she asked taking a seat next to me. I rolled my eyes and didn't say anything. She poured herself a drink and sipped on it.
"Look," she sighed, "I'm sorry about what I did earlier and I know -"
"Just be quiet please," I pleaded with her trying to say it in a soft tone but it came out as a demand. Her head dropped as she sat in quietness.
About an hour had passed by and I was now emptying a bottle of vodka with some strawberry kiwi juice. Footsteps echoed through the room and I didn't bother to turn around.
"Serious? This is how you handle the situation? Drink everything you can get your hands one?" Lucifer scoffed from behind me. I shrugged as I drank my drink. "It can't kill me so there's no harm in drinking it," I slurred out.
"You know, you didn't have to act like that in my office. You had no right to go what you did back there," he spoke in a stern tone. "Sure," I sarcastically replied.
I felt the room become more tense as it was clear my response was not to his liking. "Sure? Is that all you have to say?" he hissed. I turned around in my chair to look at him. Behind him, I could see Micah and Axel leaning against the wall. I could tell Axel wanted to tell Lucifer something by the way he was glaring at his back but he didn't. I looked over to the side of the room to see Liana was still here and by the door way next to Heath.
"Skylar!" Lucifer barked my name.
I looked back at him to see he was now furious. "What do you want?" I asked in a casual tone not wanting to put up with his shit. "Fucking answer me!" he demanded.
I shrugged, "What you want me to say? That I'm sorry for feeling threatened? That I'm sorry I feeling like you're going to leave me for her?" I glared at Liana who had a small smirk. I felt my fist tightened, "Wow, and you still have the nerve to smirk," I mumbled.
I looked back at Lucifer who was now sending her a death stare. "I'm not sorry for what I did. You didn't tell me the truth upstairs so it was fair enough for me to suspect something. Then you order me to do something as if you're siding for her. I don't expect you to side with me all the time but when getting married, I expect you to tell me the truth. It's bad enough we're in deep shit and now we're got more problems. It's like you've grown so much from what you were only to just kick yourself back to the starting line again," I informed him.
I watched as he tensed down and released a heavy sigh. "I know this is hard for you but you can't act out this way," he softly spoke.
I stared at him dumbfound. Axel and Micah even shook their head as they knew he had said the wrong thing.
"That's what you got out of that?" I questioned. His eyebrow rose before he quickly shook his head as he realized how wrong his answer was. "No, no. Of course not. I love you Sweetheart and I know I shouldn't have spoke to you like that. I also know why you acted like that. I would act like too if I say your ex but I promise, nothing is happening. Just a plan for the war and I will never," he spoke as he walked toward me, "never leave you for someone else," he reassured me as he kissed me on the forehead.
I let out a sigh as he pulled me into his chest. "I'm sorry I was harsh on you. I'm just under a lot of stress as well," he muffled into my hair. I wrapped my hand around him as I buried my face in his chest. "I know you are but it's still no excuse," I informed him. He pulled away and gave me a small smile, "I know and I'm sorry. Please forgive me?" he asked.
I nodded, "You are forgiven for your sins," I jokingly replied causing him to roll his eyes. "Nah, I'm good with my sin," he chuckled as he pulled me off the chair and hugged me again. I hugged him back, "Just don't do that again," I spoke in a stern tone.
"I will not," he reassured me.
"Good, or else I will really get a bible and holy water and since I'm a Demon now, and my hits are harder, I could literally knock you out with the bible," I commented.
"Can I spray him with the holy water?" Micah asked. Lucifer pulled away from the hug and glared at him. "Oh course and Axel, you could smack him with the cross necklace then choke him out," I squealed.
I then felt a sting on my behind as Lucifer had just slapped my butt. I looked up at him a bit shock to see him with a smirk. "There's more where that came from," he winked.
I reached up and slapped him on the forehead, "The power of Christ compels you! Be gone Demon!" I chanted.
Lucifer rolled his eyes, "Oh fuck off," he replied as he was now walking away.
My mouth dropped in shock, "Oh my gosh! It actually worked!" I squealed, "Should've done this years ago!"
"That's it. More spanking for you," Lucifer hollered over his shoulder. He flashed towards me and threw me over his shoulders before turning on his heels to walk out the room. I looked towards Axel and Micah. "Get the holy water and bible quick!" I ordered them before we disappeared out the room. I felt another sting to my butt.
"Really?" I shrieked. "Not my fault your ass if so smackable. Not only that but it's also very tempting to grab," he chuckled as he grabbed a handful of my butt before slapping it.
