Lucifer's POV
Lucifer, I love you. I know your note says to move on but I can't. I'm broken without you. I hope I get to see you soon. I miss you so much.
Chloe. I smile. Hearing her voice brings me so much happiness but sadness at the same time, I want to see her so bad, she's my everything. I can't stop thinking back to her begging for me to stay, a broken soul in front of me and I still left her, I had no choice but to leave, it was the only way I could protect her. Sign. Chloe. I can't stop thinking about her no matter what I do. Hell just seems so much darker than before, I left part of myself with her. I don't enjoy torturing new souls, the demons don't even bother me anymore. I don't even know if they even respect me as their king anymore, I doubt they do, I don't even respect myself as a king.
" My Lord, where do you want these new souls?" Dromos asks pulling me out of my train of thought.
" Just bring them to the 3rd ward and get to work, Dromos." Sign. I can tell by the look in his eye that he knows how out of it I am but it's partially his fault, he couldn't just have come home and made my life easier but no, he ruined it all. Chloe. Chloe. Chloe. Chloe. Chloe. Chloe. Fucking Hell. I miss her, I miss the spawn. I need to find a way out of here. I look around the dark room and make my way over to the bed and sit down. I stretch to let my wings pop out when I hear her again.
Lucifer? Did you make the feather glow? I'm crazy aren't I? Are you sure you can hear me? I miss you. I love you. Come home.
Glow? What does she mean glow? I ask myself when suddenly I see it, my wings get brighter almost like a glow. " Chloe, I know you can't hear me but you aren't crazy, you're perfect my love" I say in a quiet voice when suddenly I hear
Lucifer? I can hear you, come home. Please. Just for a visit. Please. She pleads. How is this possible? How can she hear me? I wonder if it's the glow. I notice my wings still lit up and say " Chloe, I will do all in my power to find my way to come and see you. Soon. Get some rest, I'm always here and even if I don't always answer I need you to know that I can always hear you. I love you." Tears start rolling down my cheeks, quite the devil I am, a devilish cry baby perhaps.
Please find a way. I'm going to talk to forever. I love you, Lucifer. I smile. I hope she finds it. I put my wings away and lay back on the bed and go to sleep with her on my mind.
Chloe's POV
I smiled and cried so much when I heard him talk to me. I miss him so much. God, I need a drink. I get out of bed and make my way over to the bar, so many choices, expensive ones, everything on this shelf cost more than I would ever consider spending on liquor but this all belongs to Lucifer and heaven knows that man isn't cheap. I keep looking at all the options and finally just grab one at random, some type of whiskey. I pour a glass full, far more than should be in there and down in as fast I can feeling the burn. Burn. I wonder if Hell is actually on fire, if so, how does Lucifer stand it? No matter what I do I can't stop my thoughts from going to him. I really hope he means it when he says he will do everything in his power to come back to me. Of course he does, he's a devil of his word. I chuckle at that thought. I start to walk around the penthouse to explore, all thoughts of sleep forgotten. I make my way over to his library and marvel at the collection, books in all languages and all of time periods, this man is truly amazing. I smile. I see on that catches my eye by the door, I walk a little closer and see the title is "Mon Coeur", my French is rusty but I believe that means " My Heart". Curious, I pick it up and open it and catch my breath. A feather. Well, not exactly a feather but a cutout of one, almost looks like you could put a feather in it. Oh my lord. I drop the book as realization hits me and run to the bedroom and grab the feather Lucifer gave me and run back to the book as fast I can. I pick up the book and whisper to myself, " I hope this works" and I place the feather he gave me in the cutout when suddenly I hear a click to my right, sounds like a door unlocked. I look around trying to find it when I see that the bookshelf is sticking out more than it was, I grab it and pull it towards myself. It moved very easily and I see a door behind it. Tentatively I walk over and open it, I see stairs. I take one step and call out, " Hello?". No answer. Just darkness and quiet. I bravely take a step forward to walk down the stairs. Lucifer gave me this feather so he must have known I would find this and he wouldn't send me here if it wasn't safe. I find the courage to walk down the steps, carefully as I can't see anything due to the darkness. Finally after what feels like an hour, I get to another door, I reach out for the handle and open it when suddenly I get hit with heat. A lot of heat and what is that awful smell? " Lucifer?" I call out, hoping he can hear me.
" Oh hello, what is this? A living one?" I hear someone say behind me and just as I got to turn they grab me and throw me into the wall. Everything goes black.
