Hello,
the new Chapter.
Thank you to my new beta reader :)


Chloe closed the bathroom door and put her forehead against the cool dark wood. She had seen it for the second time, Lucifer's devil face, only this time she wasn't shocked. Rather, this time she felt a sense of ownership and deeply passionate love.
A mix of emotions that she had never felt before. Between all the thoughts, she thought of Trixie, and how she would deal with Lucifer and Dan. That moment in the warehouse had revealed so much.

"Chloe?" she heard Lucifer's voice through the bathroom door.

"Is everything ok in there?" Lucifer hadn't heard anything, not even then water running.

"Yeah, everything's fine," she replied, swallowing. "I was just thinking. I'm going to go ahead and take a bath now."
When Lucifer heard the water, he nodded to himself. He had so many ideas right now, so many good ideas.

"I'm here if you need me," he said, waiting for Chloe's reply.

"I know. Thank you." He heard her voice behind the door and touched the dark wood with his fingertips and left her to her privacy.

Chloe closed her eyes and enjoyed the warm water that hugged her body.

"Lucifer Morningstar. Is that stage name or something?"
"God-given, I'm afraid."

"I'm the devil,"
"Not to me!"

"It's all true!"

Lucifer, her charming, caring, funny, passionate Lucifer was the devil. She thought about it for three sleepless days. The bond of trust between them, however, was stronger than her fears or her doubts. She had to see him again. Lucifer had become more than just a partner.

Lucifer was sitting on the sofa with a glass of Scotch and thought of what had happened in the warehouse. Chloe unconscious on the ground, his unbridgeable anger combined with a strange sense of ownership. He had never felt this way about anyone, he had always seen everything as fun until now. Lucifer thought it would all be easier after Chloe saw his face. But on the contrary, everything seemed even more complicated. He had no idea what it took to have a good relationship, he had always seen the human emotion as just fun.

"Hello, Lucifer," Dr Linda said, shooting a smile to Lucifer who was standing in her doorway. "I have lunch break," and pointed to the fork in her hand. "Which means I don't have to listen to anyone right now."

"I showed Chloe my devil's face." For a moment, Linda looked at him with wide eyes and open mouth.
"Wow," she said after a pause. "That's a good reason to stop my break." She put her lunch aside. "The Doctor is in."

"Thank you, Doctor," said Lucifer. "Is it possible that Chloe is not normal?" Lucifer asked after sitting down and looking at Linda in confusion.
"How did you get that idea? Did she give you a reason to doubt her?" she asked.

"She came back to me after she saw my face, nobody does that. " Lucifer said, confused.

"The reason is that Chloe sees more in you, more than you think."

"What do you mean? Like that strange thing in my chest I feel when I think about her, or does she see evil?"

"That's called love Lucifer, love makes many things possible." Linda said with a smile.
"And it lets her overlook the fact that I'm a monster?" Lucifer asked with a piercing glare in his eyes.
"You are not a monster!" Linda replied, louder than intended.

"Believe me, Doctor, I am."

"Where is she now, Lucifer?" Linda asked quietly.
"She was in my bathroom when I left." Linda didn't know what to say.
"So you left her alone?"

"I respect her privacy, even if it's ..."

"No, Lucifer... What do you think Chloe will do when she realizes you're gone?" For a moment she realized that Lucifer was thinking. It was a big step forward, he thought about what she said.
"Good argument, Doctor," he disappeared without saying anything else, as always.

"You're welcome," Linda Said with a grin as she gazed at the open door. He had not changed at all.

Chloe left the bathroom with a towel around her body and hair. She froze when she saw a sweaty Lucifer standing at the piano, with a glass of scotch in his hand. Chloe looked around and looked at Lucifer. "I hope for your sake that there isn't other woman here." Lucifer looked up from his glass.
"No, of course not, I was thinking about the situation in the warehouse."

"That made you sweat?" Chloe asked. "Lucifer, I was thinking about it too. I'm worried about Trixie, I know that she adores you, but now we have a very different point of view. You have to accept that Trixie belongs to me, she is my everything."

"Chloe," he said with love in his voice and smiled. "I love the spawn...because she belongs to you." Chloe went forward a couple of steps and took Lucifer's face in both hands, while looking deep into his eyes. "Beautiful words," Chloe said with a smile.

"Because they are true." he said, looking at her as if asking for permission to kiss her. "Chloe, you saw my devil face and I know you want do see my wings too. But..."

"It's ok for me, Lucifer. You can show me your wings when you're ready." Lucifer's answer was a beautiful, passionate kiss.
