Chapter 7

9:30pm

In the penthouse above Lux Maze was sitting on the couch with a blank stare swinging her blade occasionally tossing it up in the air and catching it.

The events occurring as of late bothered her especially when she woke up on the floor in Lux and strange enough with her back and arms bruised that looked like shelf marks. Trying to recall what happened along with wanting to know who had the nerve to bruise the most feared demon in hell, she wanted payback.

" Something doesn't add up " she said tossing her blade but when it didn't return she turns to see Amenadiel holding it, " what doesn't add up? " he asks handing her blade back.

Rolling her eyes Maze swipes the blade back, " if I said there might be something not of this world...would you believe me? " she asks looking at the angel, " depends do you believe it has something to do with that prescence? " asks Amenadiel intrigued by the question.

" Yes cause I get the feeling it or they were at Lux awhile ago " answered Maze squeezing her fist tight, " are you serious? " Amenadial asks surprised " why wasn't I informed about this? " he asks getting upset. " Backoff I wasn't sure if I should say anything but for some odd reason I can't remember the events of that night " explained Maze " and trust me I remember everything whatever happened it must of been done to Lucifer as well " she added walking to the bar.

" Are you saying your memory and Lucifers could of been erased from that night? " asks Amenadial approaching Maze, " yes and it angers me that I could of been defeated that day " answers Maze before down her drink.

" I wouldn't even know what or who could have that sort of power " said Amenadial getting confused " what if it's something beyond any of us? " asked Maze pouring herself another drink.

" It couldn't be possible " replies Amenadial looking at the upset demon, " well whatever it is I wanna take them out...no one does that to me " growled Maze crushing the glass in her hand.

Meanwhile at Chloe's home she just put her daughter to sleep along with gently caressing her cheek, after reading her a book Chloe took a moment to watch Trixie in her peaceful state. " I love you " she whispered before lightly kissing her cheek before leaving.

After closing the door Chloe sighed heavily today had been quite the event, after leaving the station she made sure to stay out of sight went to the nearest salon got a haircut along with getting it straightened. It was the most bizarre thing to happen to her but also she had guilt inside.

Walking into the kitchen she stood momentarily by the counter thinking of Lucifer...when she saw the flowers he carried with him today it was the most sweetest thing in the world. And today he wanted to tell her how he felt, " oh god did I ruin it? " she asks looking up trying not to let her tears fall.

Just then...

* knock * * knock *

Facing the door Chloe calmed herself before going to answer it, looking through the curtain her breathing stopped followed by unlocking the door to see Lucifer with his arms behind his back.

" What are you doing here? " she asks nervously while he smiled at her, " good evening Chloe...I've been looking for you when you weren't at the station I was worried " explained Lucifer keeping eye contact.

" Come in and I'm sorry I had some personal things to do " she replied but then heard a chuckle from him " your still a bad liar I noticed the hot coffee on your desk as I was leaving " he said with a sly smile. " Okay I was there momentarily but then I left " Chloe explained holding herself.

" I see Chloe I need to tell you something but before I say anything " said Lucifer he takes a deep breath and reveals a rose bouquet, " Lucifer they're so beautiful " breaths Chloe as she accepts them.

Holding her face Lucifer makes eye contact " your welcome but I just want you to listen...detective what I feel whenever I'm near you is indescribable, you make me feel different something I couldn't imagine " explains Lucifer in a shaken voice " at first I was in denial or feel jealous but I can't deny it anymore because what I feel for you is real " he breathed slowly caressing the side of her face.

" Lucifer " she breathed awaiting to hear the rest " what I'm trying to say is...I love you " he whispers only to see tears fall on the side of her face " I love you too " she whispers followed by pressing her lips against his.

The bouquet slipped from her hands causing a few rose petals to scatter on the ground followed by Lucifer picking up Chloe, never parting from her lips he carried her to the privacy of the bedroom making sure to close the door so that what was to come next was shared only between them.

Elsewhere far from earth both Eve and Libra were walking together on a stone path then stopped sensing something, " it would seem that they are consummating " said Eve in a shy tone of voice, " yes and she's very happy by the sense of it " replied Libra while blushing.

Exhaling heavily Eve closed her eyes " this will be more difficult now " she explains continuing to walk " sadly yes so we must act sooner then expected " said Libra following close as they walk up a couple steps to a candle lit area.

Both of them stopped as they stared at the statue in front of them, " our lady forgive us for breaking your orders but we will bring your daughter back sooner then expected " said Eve looking at the statue in grief " along with avenging you for the pain you went through " breathed Libra tears started forming in her eyes.

The statue in front of them was of a celestial being looking up to the sky in pure sadness her hands in prayer along with her wings extended out.

" Let's go " breathed Eve as she and Libra left the area to complete there mission...
