DarkPriestess66 says, Lillith can see Cupids because she's not human, she's outside of time and space all together, kinda like the Avatars. Cole is human but with demonic powers from the wasteland, he can't them only feel them when they step in to, as Lillith would say interfere.
Lillith opened the door to her apartment, and step aside to allow Cole in first,
"This is your apartment?" Cole asks, he looked around the spacious living room, something you would find in a Better Home and Garden magazine, there was nothing in here except for the velvet curtains to suggest the occupant wasn't one of the living dead.
"It is for this decade," Lillith answers, "I move around a lot being immortal and all that, I don't want the humans to know, throws off the balance. But since this a demonic owned establishment, I can living here as long as I need too."
"I see," Cole mutters, but Lillith could hear him. She showed him a closet to put his things,
"I believe Nixon was in office when I bought this couch, but the bed hasn't been used." Lillith explains, but Cole wasn't paying attention, she turned and found him looking at photographs along the walls,
"who are they?" Cole asks,
Lillith looked at the photos with a wistful expression, "Some of my human friends, long since gone with time, but I treasure the memories, it's back when magic was open, and they weren't afraid. But this picture, I love most of all." she ran an icy finger along the frame, "I drew it myself, a few years after I was turned, it's my mother and father the way I remember them."
The man had short cropped hair, that was the color of straw, in the modern times it would be called blonde, he had blue eyes, he wasn't breathing handsome, but his smile made up for it. The woman was beautiful, with waves of raven wing black hair, and cobalt blue eyes, but they weren't warm, it was like she didn't want to be in that picture.
"My mother wasn't the nicest human on the planet, sometimes, I think she was my stepmother, if I didn't look like her at least." Lillith replies,
Cole glanced at Lillith and saw the human in her when she was thinking about her parents, "What happened to them, I mean after you chose to give up your life with them?"
"My father died of heartache, I went to his funeral and payed my respects after the service ended, and wept because I loved him, my mother married again of course, but this time she was happy, I found out a few years after she died that her first marriage wasn't a love-match, it was an arranged marriage, I was the only good thing she had." Lillith answers, "This was in England, mind you. America wasn't founded yet."
"Brit," muttered Cole
"Cowboy," Lillith replies, "Of course, I traveled to America when the time came, I killed some of the traders that were sailing to America, but left some of them alive, because they didn't have the wits to say what caused the others to die, it was a plague of some kind, I didn't enjoy the witch, vampires, werewolf hunts, the Old West was fun, I even had a demonic best friend back then."
"Really? What was his name?" Cole asks, he felt a emotion, he hasn't felt in two years, jealousy.
"Her name was Elizabeth." Lillith answers,
Cole turned sharply "What did you just say?"
Lillith looked up at him, he was pale, "You're as pale as I am, what's wrong?" she took his arm and lead him to the couch, "Talk to me."
"Elizabeth was my mother." Cole replies,
Lillith gasps and her eyes hardened, "That's what she was doing. That horrible snake." She stood up and started pacing getting faster with every thought, "How could I have been so blind back then,"
"What are you talking about and will you stop, you're making me dizzy," Cole asks
Lillith stopped pacing and stood with her back toward Cole, "I taught her everything I know about the Art of Seduction, I didn't know she was going to seduce a mortal."
"You did what?" asks Cole in disbelief.
Lillith turned back to him, her eyes smoldering, "Vampires and Vampiresses are good at seducing mortals, how do you think we get them to come with us willingly, she was curious as to how I could lure mortals into my bed or out into the night with me,"
"So you showed her how," Cole guessed,
"Seduced a male right in front of her and she took to the lessons like a fish to water." Lillith replies,
"So that lead to me, nice to know that the vampiress who is suppose to save me, is the one who helped create me in the first place." Cole states.
"How was I to know, she was going for the most powerful figurehead of that time, I wasn't with her during the day," Lillith replies, she bit her lip, "I guess I have to thank her one of these days,"
"Why?" Cole asks, he wanted to really know.
"Because if she didn't seduce her husband and had you, I wouldn't have met you a hundred and some years later." Lillith answers, She looked at the curtains, she felt the sunrise, "I must sleep soon, and we've been up all night."
Lillith went into her bedroom and into her closet, she rummaged around until she found a pillow and a set of sheets, "I'm a sentimental fool, keeping all this junk."
Cole walked in, and looked at the closet, seeing all kinds of garment bags, "You know you could sell half of this,"
Lillith spun around, her teeth bared before she realized who it was. "Rule number one, don't sneak up on a vampiress."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." Cole apologizes,
"It's okay, why did you come in here?" Lillith asks
"I guess, I just wanted tell you have a good sleep," Cole replies,
Lillith stares at him before her daring side shown, she walked over to him, keeping her eyes on his. She leaned forward and gently kissed his cheek, "That's sweet, Cole."
The Vampiress opens her coffin, and sighs, she wished she could stay up in both daylight and nighttime. She gave Cole one last glance and smiles slightly as he was touching his cheek where she kissed him, maybe winning his heart wouldn't be so hard after all.
'When did I fall in love with him?' was her last coherent thought before sleep claimed her.
The night night, when Lillith awaken, she decided it was time for some investigating, she needed to know if Phoebe Halliwell had truly lost all faith in Cole, because if she was going to start anything with him, she had to make sure she was the only one.
Lillith left the apartment, as an excuse of needing to hunt. Which wasn't true, she ghosted along the tops of building until she made it to 1329 Prescott street,
She listened in with her acute hearing,
"There you are. Paige, did you ever make that vanquishing potion?" Phoebe Halliwell's voice asks,
Lillith bristled at the thought of Her Cole being vanquished. 'Wait, when did I start thinking of him as mine?'
"Vanquishing potion?" Paige Matthews asks,
"The one for Cole. Remember I gave you the letter opener with his blood on it?" Phoebe asks
"Right, vanquishing potion. I'm sorry, I didn't know you needed that right away. Do you?" Paige asks,
"Well, if the nightmare I had last night turns out to be a premonition, then yeah, big time. He had me back in the underworld as his queen." Phoebe replies,
Lillith's lips curled over her teeth, and she snarled, "Over my undead body,"
"Oh, yeah, but you've had that nightmare before." Piper replies, "Besides you have seen Cole in a while,"
"I've lived that nightmare before, we all have, but this time we have to be prepared." Phoebe states, "He could be buying his time, trying to figure out a way to win me back."
"Of course, he hasn't even been thinking of you, since he's been with me." Lillith states, from the open window of the attic that she just ran up, causing the Charmed Ones to go into defensive stances.
Piper tries to blow Lillith up but the vampiress was too quick,
"Oh please, if I was going to kill you, I already would have." Lillith laughed. "Freeze me, and deal with them" she looked up at the ceiling of the attic,
"The Elders?" Paige asks, "Who are you?"
"Lillith Frost, I'm a vampiress," Lillith replies, "I heard you talking just now, and there is no way, you can vanquish Cole."
The Charmed Ones glanced at each other,
"I thought we vanquished the vampires already?" Paige asks
"Not all of us, there are a few covens left." Lillith replies, "anyway, I'm here to tell you, he's been given to me."
"Please tell me as dinner." Phoebe begs,
Lillith crosses the room and glares her, "No, I've been assigned by the Elders to fix what you did."
"That means you're good right?" Piper asks
"Depending on who you ask, but yes, I'm good and I'm the only one who can keep Cole's head on straight." Lillith replies, "He's staying with me, so I can fix him, you ripped him apart, he's broken, heart and soul, and now that I see for myself, you are too."
"He doesn't have a heart, he was the Source!" Phoebe exclaims,
"He does too and it is mine, broken and bleeding but it's mine all the same." Lillith states, she then turns to Piper, "By the way, that baby has my protection, any demons that come after her, I will drain the life out of."
she then left and found a low level demon and drank him dry. Before returning to her apartment. She went inside and found Cole watching tv,
"Have a nice time?" Cole asks, relived that she didn't meet up with Phoebe or her sisters.
"Yes, I had a encounter I rather soon forget." Lillith replies as she trails her fingers along his neck before going into the kitchen, "Have you eaten yet?"
"No, I was kinda worried about you." Cole replies, looking at her.
Lillith smiles, but then felt guilty about not telling him the truth. She busied herself with making Cole something to eat. "I saw the sisters." she admits.
"You are crazy," Cole states, "they could have vanquished you,"
"Yes, I am crazy," Lillith replies but silently adds 'about you,'
"So what happened?" Cole asks,
"Phoebe wants to vanquish you, she thinks you want her back." Lillith replies, "I don't know how I would handle that if it's true."
"i did at first, but now I'm not so sure." Cole replies, "I come to realize, I will never earn Phoebe's trust back, but I have someone's else's trust."
Lillith looked up at him, "Whose?"
"Yours." Cole answers, "You have put so much faith in me, that I can be good, also you're cute when you say things you don't mean too."
Lillith's heart surged, her blood felt electrified. "You have my trust, Cole. You could have more if you want too."
Cole smiled at her, "but first there is something I have to do,"
"What?" asks Lillith,
"I have to help Phoebe." Cole replies,
"Help her?" Lillith repeated,
"She needs to regain her trust in men," Cole explains, "And it's my fault, she lost it in the first place."
"It's not your fault, It's hers. She should have never strip you of Belthazar," Lillith replies, "But you're right, and we'll help her together."
