Chapter 2

Maze was worried. She could feel her master crying out for her, but she could also feel that he was finding the comfort that he needed. Normally she wouldn't have let Chloe near him, she knew what was happening even if her maker was too blind to see. He had only given into his lust since he was there, but she knew other emotions, and she could feel it creeping up on the insides. It was love, Chloe Decker had made the devil fall in love with her. Too bad he was broken, a broken devil could be very dangerous.

She didn't know how long she had been driving. Seems like it was taking her longer to get home then it did to get there. It was because she kept looking at him. He wasn't looking too good, she could feel the heat radiating off of his body.

"Are you with me Lucifer?" she asked concerned.

Lucifer was about to answer her, but then he was snapped back to reality. He was with Chloe; she was the problem. She was the reason he felt this way, and she was a gift from his father. If he wanted it all to end he could just jump from the car right now, he would bleed out before the ambulance got there. The thing about that was if an ambulance came and they were separated then there was a chance that he would heal, or they could see his real face and then he'd have to kill everyone in the hospital and that would totally be wrong so, he had to think.

Chloe was not liking the way he was looking. He's breathing was shallow, and she thought he might be about to hyperventilate. He was sweating more and more by the minute which let her know that his temperature had to be rising. She contemplated if she should take him to the hospital but she thought back to her talk with Maze…

"Please tell me why I'm going out in the middle of the night instead of you?" Chloe asked her roommate.

"I can't believe that I'm about to say this, but he needs you now. I'm only a reminder, but you have to go now and retrieve him. I know how your mind works, no matter what you find don't take him to the hospital." She commanded.

"Hospital? Do you think he hurt himself?" she asked more panicked.

"I don't know. There have been lots of changes in him of late. Some of them I like, I like a lot actually and others I wished would go away, but right here right now he needs you. Go to him, bring him back here to me. I'll be waiting."

She was pulled from her memories by a noise that she couldn't place. She looked to her companion and he was beating his head against the passenger window.

"Lucifer!" she shouted.

*Broken*

Maze had been trying to sense her master's mood. He was all over the place, he was lost and she knew that she wouldn't be able to fix him, at least not alone. All of a sudden she became overwhelmed with panic and pure fear. She was out the door in a flash, her knives at the ready. That's when she saw the car pull up.

"Thank God you are outside, come on you have to help me get him inside." Chloe announced getting out of the car.

Maze noticed two things about her master when exited the car. First he had a severe head wound, there was so much blood. His hair was an ashen white and drenched. He was drenched, and she could feel the heat radiating off of him from where she stood. He was too vulnerable and she needed to get him away from Chloe and see what the problem was.

Chloe was amazed and both thankful when Maze came to the passenger side and gathered up Lucifer with ease. She would not say she got jealous as how he seemed to lean into her and moan her name. No she was not jealous at all.

"Get some bandages and I will put him to bed." Chloe ordered.

She didn't like being ordered around but she needed to get away from him for a minute, she didn't want to see him in so much pain so she gladly ran off in search of the bandages.

*Broken*

Maze had been telling Lucifer over and over again that if you get too close, the emotion would be too much for him. She was created to protect him, and she couldn't protect him from this. He had decided to come here after…. she didn't want to discuss why he fell from grace and then he was just supposed to have fun here, that was until the detective came along. Now he was feeling everything, and then he'd killed his brother and now he was this broken mess before her.

"Pull yourself together! Do you want her to see you this way? What happened to you, what happened to your head?" she asked touch the gash.

"I can't do this anymore Maze. I don't deserve to be here; I've done things that I can't take back. I walk around angry that people do things and use my name, but I'm no better than them. My father was right, I deserve everything I get."

"Never! You are so much more than them. We will sort that out later, first lets get you out of these clothes."

Maze didn't know who this was before her but it wasn't her master. The heat was radiating from his body, and she needed to cool him down. He was the devil, he was supposed to hold the fire within, but it was coming out. He was losing a grip, and the façade was slipping. Just to add fuel into fire as that say for three brief seconds gone was Lucifer Morningstar that the people here knew, and her master lay before her in all his hellish glory.

"Master!" she shouted.

Chloe couldn't believe what she had heard. Had she really called him that? She didn't know what kind of relationship that they had she was sure it was something sexual it had to be, right? She was almost cringing to imagine how she would find them when she returned to her room. What she found though? She didn't know what to think?

Maze had removed Lucifer's clothing; she hadn't realized that she had pulled the bed out from the sofa. He was still sweating, but he fell in a restless sleep. She didn't know what to do, he needed a doctor. She was looking at him so lovingly, she was whispering words of comfort in his ear, but it was weird. It didn't seem as if they were speaking in English if at all. She had removed her shirt, and was dabbing at his head with a cloth.

"Here, I have this." She told her passing the first aid kit.

When she looked up at her she was stunned. She was expecting her to have on that cold unapproachable face but she didn't. She looked scared, and was that a tear running down her cheek.

"Maze." She asked concerned.

"I have to go. I can't be here; I can't see him this way. You have to fix him; I need to I need to hurt something." She shouted rising from the bed after kissing Lucifer on the forehead.

She could tell that she was distraught. Something had happened, and she need to get to the bottom of it. How though? How could she do it when everyone was acting all out of character. She wanted to question her about what was happening, after the separation from Lucifer his cries came back louder than ever. She was afraid that he was going to wake Trixie.

"Lucifer please, you have to let me help you." She tried to bring him comfort. He was very hot she had to get him into the bathtub fast.

"It's too late Detective. No one wants to be around me anymore. I have no one, even Maze had to leave she can barely look at me anymore. I think it's time I just do everyone the biggest favor."

"What? What are you talking about Lucifer?" she asked getting panicked. She quickly went back to in the car as he was beating his head against the window.

"Oh Chloe, don't you know there's no such thing as sympathy for the devil." He smiled and his eyes rolled back into his head.

"Lucifer!" she shouted panicked. "No this can't be happening, wake up Lucifer! Wake up!"

End Notes: Okay am I torturing him too much. If I can help it you'll get another chapter before the day is out.
