chapter 9:

previously in Gone in de wind,

"We will find her, love," Lucifer said, wrapping his arms even more tightly around Dan.

"That is not all, babe. Right before I called you I had a visit from a strange priest. He knew about our relationship, he told me that you were dangerous to me and asked me to help him to send you back to Hell. I am afraid that everything is connected with each other and that I will lose you." Dan said holding his boyfriend close to him.

"You don't have to worry about me, love. There is nothing that this priest can do to send me back. Holy water doesn't work on me and if Amenadiel is right, I can be immortal again even in Chloe's presence." Lucifer said or at least he hoped that was true. He wasn't going to say that he doubted his theory though.

on with the story:

Daniel sighed deeply, his head against Lucifer's chest, "I am so worried, Lucifer. I need to go to work soon but I don't want to leave." He enjoyed the arms wrapped around his shoulders.

"Well, it's good that I called in a sick day for you." Lucifer smiled before kissing the top of Dan's head.

"You did what?! Why?" Dan was confused at this.

"Well, I didn't think it was just because you missed me that you called me. You sounded worried, I knew it had to be serious. I didn't know it was this bad though." Lucifer was stroking Dan's back in an attempt to comfort his boyfriend.

"For once I am glad you did, babe. I don't know if I could focus on my job." Dan wrapped his arms even tighter around Lucifer's waist." Dan sighed, "Why don't you call your friends in Rome to look out for Trixie."

Lucifer let go of Dan before taking out his phone and started to make his call.

"Mario, It's Lucifer Morningstar. I need your help with something." Lucifer started when a man answered the phone. Mario was one of the few who could speak English. He was one of his most exclusive tailors but someone who could protect Trixie if it would be necessary.

"How can I help you, Mr. Morningstar?" Mario asked his best customer.

"The daughter of my boyfriend and her mother are in Rome but they stopped calling him and their phones are turned off. If I send you a picture could you please keep an eye out for them and help them if they are in trouble?" Lucifer hoped he and his brothers wanted to do that for him.

"You saved our business, Mr. Morningstar. We owe it to you. We will keep an eye out for them and help them if needed." Sounded on the other side of the line.

"Call me if they are in trouble. It doesn't matter what time. My private jet is ready to fly." Lucifer looked worried at his boyfriend while making that call. Dan was pacing up and down the room.

"We will, Mr. Morningstar. I am going to send my brothers out from the moment I have their picture." Mario sounded friendly. Lucifer knew that they would be in good hands with the Italian family.

The devil didn't waste a second, he started to search his phone for one of the rare pictures he got from Chloe and Trixie together. He sent the picture with the text, 'The daughter's name is Beatrice Espinoza and the mother's name is Chloe Decker.'

Moments later he got a text back, "We will be looking out for them."

Lucifer took a seat on the couch and patted on the place next to him, "Come here love. They are going to keep an eye out for them. You know well enough that the cops won't do a thing at this moment."

Dan sighed and grabbed his hair. He didn't know what to do. He felt so helpless, "You are right, babe. Chloe isn't due to come back for a few more days." He walked over to the couch and laid down. His head in Lucifer's lap. The devil started stroking the man's hair. He was trying to give him some comfort.

"If they are in trouble, Mario and his family will find out. They will help them and I will be on my way to Italy with my jet." Lucifer smiled softly.

"You have a jet? Why is that? You can fly faster yourself?" Dan was confused now.

"Love, I can only take one person with Air Morningstar." Lucifer grinned.

"Oh, and you are not going alone. I am going with you if they find them." Dan was sure about that.

"Love, it's best that I will go alone. I am immortal, remember." Lucifer sighed, he didn't stop stroking the man's hair.

"I am going with you and that's final, it's my daughter, Luce." Dan didn't want to stay home when his daughter was into trouble.

"Let's not think about that just yet, love. It's possible that nothing is going on. She had quite a scare by seeing my devil face."

Dan closed his eyes, enjoying the attention he got from his lover, "Thank you, Lucifer." Before falling asleep on Lucifer's lap. The devil smiled at the sight but didn't have the heart to wake him up, so the devil didn't move an inch.

*** Lucifer ***

Sister Grind was doing some paperwork when some of the papers flew from her desk when a sudden gust of wind appeared, "What in the lord's name." The sister groaned.

"Almost right." A voice said from behind her.

Sister Grind looked up and saw the tall, dark man. He was wearing a turtleneck and classic pants, "Lord Michael, what an honor for your visit."

"We have a problem, sister. Father Kinley failed us. We need another plan. We need to convince the miracle to help us bring my brother, the devil down." Michael didn't do pleasantries so he cut to the chase. What he didn't know was that someone was listening in.

"I don't know how to do that lord, Michael. She is genuinely afraid of Lucifer. She won't help us." The sister sighed deeply, "I understand her reaction though. We all fear the prince of lies."

Trixie gasped at hearing all of this, "Lucifer isn't evil. Is he why we are running? Is he the bad man mom was talking about? Lucifer does not lie." She whispered to herself before turning towards the conversation again.

"Yes, I do too, sister Grind and I can't go and fight this war like we have fought his rebellion." Michael sighed faking a defeat, "Lucifer isn't the naive Samael anymore. He has an army of his own and he would raise a war if we aren't careful. A war fought on earth. We need to prevent that, by all means necessary."

"Do you have a plan, lord Michael?" The sister asked curiously, they couldn't let evil win.

"Are you prepared to do as I ask without asking questions?" Michael tried to hide an evil smile, luckily the sister didn't look at him.

"I trust in you, Lord Michael." The sister kept her head bowed, her eyes towards the floor.

"The child must disappear. We will blame Lucifer for it. Saying that he wants to hurt Chloe Decker by hurting the child. That his relationship with the father is only a ruse, that he is using him to get close." Michael was an expert in lying where his brother was a master in telling the truth.

"When do you want it to happen, lord?" The sister sat on her knees and she didn't move an inch.

"I will return in a few more days with the rest of the plan. Don't worry about it now." Michael said before he left. Only then sister Grind started to move to take all the papers from the floor that had flown off when Michael had arrived. She sighed deeply, she needed to remind herself that she was helping the world now.

She stood up and continued with her paperwork, not knowing that her secret wasn't as much as secret as she thought.

Trixie gasped she had to leave now that she still had the chance. She would find her way back to Rome and talk to the police. She hoped that the police would understand her and call her daddy and Lucifer.

It was late already and her mother was possibly asleep. This was her chance. Trixie sneaked towards the gate and opened it carefully. She looked around if there was someone in front of the gate but she was in luck.

The young child ran to the forest as fast as she could. She didn't know where she was going. The anger towards the people she had heard and towards her mother gave her such an adrenaline boost that she ran for hours until she couldn't run anymore. Trixie sat down against a tree and fell asleep only to wake up by a male voice, "Beatrice Espinoza?"
