Enjoy!

Chloe nuzzled closer into Lucifer's warmth, enjoying the feel of their bodies being entwined together. Her head rested comfortably on his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart against her ear and with her fingers she traced invisible patterns over his smooth skin. She had no idea it would be like that. For all his talk she had figured he was just inflating his already gigantic ego, but no, Chloe could say for absolute certainty that she had never experienced anything like it before. Sex with Lucifer was...mind-blowing, out of this world, an addiction she could already feel worming it's way through her body. The man was intoxicating and with his scent filling her nostrils, she felt a familiar ache low in her body.

Her hand drifted lower, slipping under the thin sheet covering his naked flesh and as she wrapped her hand around him, she had to bite her lip to keep from moaning out loud.

"I could get used to waking up like this." Chloe could hear the smile in his voice as he mumbled sleepily.

He blinked blearily at her, his lips quirking into one of those sexy smirks that filled her with all kinds of desires.

"Morning," she whispered and pressed a kiss to his soft lips.

It started to get a little more heated and then the next thing Chloe knew she was on her back with the Devil on top of her. His body covering every inch of hers and his touch setting her on fire. He knew how to do things with his lips and tongue that left her begging for more and when she finally got tired of his teasing she gripped his head with both hands and dragged him back to her lips. Her kiss was desperate, her tongue teasing his lower lip before he granted her access and then she was lost in the feel and taste of him.

Lucifer smiled against her lips and after finally pulling apart, both of them breathing heavily, he rubbed his nose against hers and kissed her softly. He gazed down at her with such affection that she could have swore she felt her cheeks turn a bright shade of red.

"You are the most beautiful creation I have ever laid my eyes upon, Chloe Decker and that is the truth." Lucifer's dark gaze was open and honest, baring his broken down and beaten soul. "You continue to mend the damaged parts of me. With your wit, your stubbornness and your never-ending goodness. You are slowly but surely healing a part of me I never knew could be fixed. For that, I thank you."

Chloe didn't even have the words to express how deeply his confession meant to her, so she used actions instead of words and pulled him in for another kiss. This one was slow and sensual, pouring all of her feelings into the kiss and hoped he understood.

It seemed he did. With a quirk of his lips he dipped his head and trailed his tongue along her collar bone and down between her breasts. Chloe's eyes fluttered closed in pleasure, her skin sizzling from the contact and she felt him shift above her and in one smooth movement he buried himself inside her.

She moaned loudly, wrapping her legs around his hips and pulling him as close as possible to her.

He started moving inside her, and she gripped his shoulders, her nails digging into his flesh as he brought her to the peak of ecstasy over and over again.

Feeling pleasantly sated Chloe curled up against the Devil, her head pillowed on his chest and enjoying the feel of his fingers combing methodically through her hair. She could get used to this too. It was just as well she'd had the foresight to have Dan take Trixie for a couple of days while she helped Lucifer deal with his illness, because at this moment in time she couldn't see herself wanting to get out of bed any time soon and that wasn't like her. She had always been the type of person to get up early, never having a lie in unless she was ill, which didn't happen often and even then still having to get up to make sure Trixie was taken care of.

The life of a single parent.

Having the opportunity to laze about, to take some time for herself had not been a priority for a very long time and yet Lucifer made it seem natural, like she'd been doing this for years and she hoped this meant that there would be many more days like this.

Dating the Devil. Who would've thought her most exciting relationship would be with the Devil himself. She couldn't help a soft snort from escaping and Lucifer' fingers paused, still tangled in her hair and she swore she felt him smile and when he pressed his lips against her head she titled her head up and captured his lips in another slow kiss.

"Hmmm, we should have done this month's ago, Chloe." His voice rumbled deeply and she felt a shiver run through her at that delightful tone of his. The one that made her weak at the knees.

Chloe pulled the covers around her body, still feeling a little modest in the eyes of her partner who gave new meaning to the word; perfection. She smiled warmly at him as he continued trailing his fingers up and down her arm, leaving goosebumps on her flesh.

"Is this going to change things between us?" she asked, trying to keep the hesitancy from her voice, but failing miserably.

Lucifer grinned, turning on to his side to face her. His hands still fascinated by the feel of her soft, porcelain skin beneath his fingertips. Chloe Decker was his, just as he was hers, and he would let no other touch her beautiful body but himself. He was a selfish Devil and he wanted her all to himself.

"Of course it is, love," he responded, his grin widening gleefully. "There will be many more sleepovers, and healthy amounts of sex. Which I'm very much looking forward to." Lucifer pulled her closer, his lips slanting over hers and his tongue in her mouth was creating all sorts of wondrous feelings throughout her body.

Chloe melted into the kiss then after a moment she started to push him back, needing a straight answer and not to be distracted by his talented mouth.

"Lucifer," she groaned when he trailed his fingers down her sides. Even through the thin sheet, her skin burned at his touch.

Seeing that she was being her usual stubborn self he relented and lay back on the bed. With a deep sigh he stared up at the ceiling before letting his gaze drift back to her pale, curious eyes. "It will only change things if we let it, and I am not willing to let that happen, Chloe. You make me feel things I haven't felt in so long, you make me," he frowned, trying to think of the right word. "Better. I feel more alive with you in this past year than I have for thousands of years."

Her eyes widened. "How old are you?" she asked, forgetting the age gap because of how young he looked. "Do you inhabit a body, or is this you?"

The Devil chuckled, enjoying having her questioning him. I meant she finally did believe and they could get on with having the real conversations.

"Yes this is my body, and you're welcome to examine every inch of it, if you so desire." He smirked. Reaching out with his fingers, he played with a lock of her golden hair, thinking how soft it was and comparing the feel of it to that of an Angel's wings. His brow furrowed as he tried to work out exactly how old he was, but when you were immortal those kind of things didn't really matter. "I'm not entirely sure how old I am, Chloe. You have to admit though, I look bloody fantastic."

She couldn't help but laugh. He really was like this all the time, it wasn't just for show.

His touch stilled at her neck and he brushed his fingertips against the faint marks on her neck where Samael had gripped her and he swallowed audibly, trying to keep his emotions from bubbling over.

Chloe could see the conflict in his gaze and grasped his hand, entwining their fingers. "I'm fine, Lucifer."

"I could have killed you."

She shook her head. "No, it wasn't you."

Lucifer looked pained, his dark eyes filled with lingering torment. "But it is me, Chloe. He is a part of me. I've just kept him buried for so long. That was what I turned into in hell, a dark, twisted, torturer of the damned, and you know what scares me?" He stared at her. "That he is always there, always pushing me to exact his kind of punishment onto the criminals of this world. Those are the times I almost over step the mark. It's his voice in my head, whispering to me, telling me to embrace the darkness."

"But you don't," she told him, squeezing his hand and bringing it to her lips. "You're a good man, Lucifer. I've seen it, numerous times. You did tell me a while ago that the Devil gets a bad rep."

His lips curled up at the corners and his eyes glowed brightly at her reassurance. This mortal woman might make him vulnerable to harm, but she also had the ability to make him feel invincible. Lucifer was beginning to think that with Chloe's help, he might be able to drown Samael in the light that she continued to bring back into his life. With enough time, perhaps she could heal them both and Lucifer wouldn't have to spend every day fighting to keep control.

It was bloody exhausting.

"Chloe, I once believed that my father made the most horrendous decision when he created humanity, and it's only taken me thousands of years to meet the one person, that one soul that has changed everything. You've turned my world upside down and inside out. You have made me believe that I do deserve happiness. I've been consumed with anger and hatred toward my family for so long that I thought that was all I would ever feel." He bit his lower lip nervously, his eyes dropping to their still linked hands and finally smiled when she trailed her free hand through his hair and pressed her lips against his.

"I'm here to stay Lucifer. You're not alone any more."

His face lit up in a beaming smile. He pushed her gently backward until she was lying flat and stretched out over her.

"I've never believed in soul mates, always thought that was some rubbish you humans came away with to make yourselves feel better, but now I know."

Chloe's brow arched questioningly. "Know what?"

"My dear, our souls met long before our eyes ever did," he said softly, almost in a whisper before capturing her lips once more.

Her heart swelled with emotion and a pleasant warmth spread through her body, from the hair on her head to the tips of her toes. She trailed her fingers through his hair, gripping the short strands as she pulled him closer.

Chloe had no idea what their future together would be like, or what challenges they might face, but if she could bring him as much happiness and fun as he did to her life, then she could die a happy woman.

"So we have a lot of catching up to do," she teased.

"We certainly do." Lucifer hips ground against hers, letting her feel exactly how turned on he was. "I plan to take my time and enjoy this, Chloe."

She couldn't take her eyes off of him as he showed her over and over again what she'd been missing and Chloe continued to hold on tight and enjoy the ride.

The End.
