Hi! Sorry for soooo long! Hope this chapter won't be a kind of shock for you:)

Chapter 15

Tête-à-tête

So the war has started … While the Common Council of witches, vampires and werewolves tried to take decision, soldiers settled in a war camp around the fortress of Lucifer. Seline was met there like a hero, because the way she fought against the nobility for all these years. After answering to different questions and shaking hands with old friends she could enjoy the taste of battle and weapon. She then set on the ground with Lora and Alexander, but they kept silence for a long time. All three were talking to Mirek in their minds.

"So, what plans, guys? To smash few mortal asses?"

"You think elders would take devil's side?" Alex faced to Lora, who wanted to kill anyone, no matter if it's a demon or a human.

"Perhaps … If not we'll have to fight with two enemies, we'll be surrounded so ... That's not advantageous for us." noticed Selin, looking at the scarlet skies above. "As for me I'm sick and tired from the changes and I want to turn everything back."

"Me, too. But what can we do?"

"I don't know, Lo … I'm not your leader anymore, you may do what you want to."

Assassins then started thinking about their own, drowning in thoughts that nothing else existed. Seline heard a voice inside her head; it was so metallic and unpleasant. She rubbed her temples tiredly.

'Inviting you for a dinner, Miss Cale. I think it would be worth doing for you …' It was Lucifer's voice. He got inside her minds and was waiting for an answer.

'Why should I? I'm working here.' Sel replied telepathically.

'When I invite anyone, I use to hear 'yes'.' the devil persisted, making her annoyed. Still her friends haven't noticed anything.

'Listen, I'm just a turned vampire! Get off.'

'Wrong …'

Selin felt pain in her stomach and groin area; it was almost making her to scream.

'Want to loose your child, ah?' he laughed coldly.

'Alright! Stop it! Where and when?' the woman asked, breathing heavily. She was really afraid for the girl she carried.

'Right now … Say 'goodbye' to your friends and be out of sign then. I'll bring you to my fortress …'

Sel rose up quickly and flew into the sky without any explanations. Her last dry 'see you soon' worried Lora and Alex, but they were called by their new captain and hadn't time to follow her. When the camp left far behind, a warm wave covered her and in the next moment she found herself in some kind of guest-room, decorated with ugly statues of demons and other monsters. Her amber eyes ran through the room, but saw nobody besides walls of wild stone, black marble floor and statues. No doors, no windows …

"Show yourself, Lucifer …" she called and then felt his hot breath on her neck.

"You seem so calm, my dear … I'm not scaring you?" he whispered in her ear.

"Well, those statues are more scaring. What do you want?"

Seline faced to him, her eyes pierced his awful black, looked like empty holes. He has seen his face uncovered with the hood for the first time. It was grotesquely ideal with pale skin and his hair was as white as snow, short with curled ends. He was clad in black formal suit and holding a silver walking stick.

Lucifer gazed her up and down and then shook head:

"Hmm, seductive but not ready for dinner … Let me think."

He took her hand and spin her; a spectacular red evening dress with a corset, embracing her waste and breasts tightly. Her perfect bosoms were filling the dress out to the max. There were also two cuts on sides going high almost to the waist, showing her well-toned legs. Her hair was hanging down her shoulders and back like golden waves. She looked just charming, attractive, beautiful …

His thin lips curled into a smile:

"You are ready …" he then clicked fingers and the room changed into a luxurious chamber. A round table of black glass with two chairs appeared in the center of the room. Lucifer offered her to sit and took place opposite her, his eyes never left hers. Seline could see lust deep inside his black orbs and it made her to flinch.

"What all of this for? Just say what you wanted to!"

"Let's have a drink first."

Two goblets full of blood appeared at them. The devil raised his, but she wasn't sure. "Is it poisoned?"

He laughed, threw his head back. Selin haven't even smiled, staring at him as was waiting for a trick or so.

"My dear Seline, if I wanted to kill you, I could do this long, long, long… ago." Lucifer said seriously. "Drink for my son. He'll be pleased with it."

The vampiress picked the goblet and made few small gulps. It was good.

"Good girl," he grinned, watching her coral lips touching the cold crystal of a goblet.

"Now, say what you wanted to," she said firmly in ordering manner. The devil stood up. "Do you hear the music?" he asked suddenly.

Selin looked around. Yes, there was a music, becoming louder and louder. Haunting melody, playing by violins.

Lucifer bowed and offered his hand. "Dance with me …" he muttered.

"I'm not in mood to dance."

"Better for you to agree. I'll tell you everything while dancing."

Sel gave him her hand and they started dancing. He was graceful, but quite rude. He spin her and then dipped her down, his hand caressed her thigh, lifting her leg up around his waist. She felt depressed and uncomfortable, feeling his hand sneaking beneath her dress. 'Hey, I'm pregnant!' she thought and released quickly, hissing at him with her fangs had grown long. The devil laughed and then music stopped. Everything has changed back to normal and Selin felt much better in her leather suit with pistol on the belt.

"Now listen, my pretty: my son desires for revenge, but he can't concentrate on it. Guess why."

"Because you've came back …"

"Funny. Ah, you see, you were so cold with him that he had lost his mind, always thinks of you. I can understand him …" Lucifer caressed her face, making her to flinch once again with disgust.

"So beautiful, yet so hard to get … or not?" he grabbed her by waist and started kissing her soft lips, but Seline was well-trained and hit him with all her might. He was thrown to the wall, still instead of slapping her or something just laughed.

"Well, when I find Diana's sole I'll make her my Dark Queen of Hell, but you can take even better place in my bed."

"In your dreams!"

"Dreams can sometimes become reality … Think about it …"

Then she was returned back to the sky. 'What was it? A flirt?' Sel landed on the burnt ground gracefully. 'So … Vlad is thinking about me? I won't forgive him! Never … I hope …"
