Love and Hope
Chapter 3
Lucifer flew to the school with all speed, after just finding out that Beatrice grew wings in class he realized that his young daughter needed him, now perhaps more than ever, and he was determined to be there for her, unlike his father had been there for him.
Lucifer landed at the front of the school and casually walked into the front door, pushing past security and teachers with his red eyes, they happily moved out of the way to let satan pass, they knew better than to piss off the father of the girl who literally had just sprouted wings in class. Lucifer had quickly arrived at the principles office to the sad face of a crying Beatrice.
"Lucifer, i'm so happy you're here" Beatrice said after running up and giving Lucifer a big hug at his waist, hugs that once upon a time scared the big bad devil now made him very happy, she was such a beautiful and good little creature, and she was his daughter, a fact that brought him so much joy "Lucifer everyone is calling me a freak, they say that i'm some kind of monster for having wings on my back" Beatrice said looking up at Lucifer with tears streaming down her eyes, Lucifer could see the little girl had a broken heart, Lucifer then looked across the desk at the cruel looking faces of principle Jack Williams and Vice principle Thomas Escher.
" , i'm sure that you're aware that we have a responsibility to protect all students that come to this school, and frankly we can't have some little freak like your daughter at our school growing wings and scaring all of the other children, you'll understand if we expel her from our school" principle Jack Williams said with such hateful scorn that it made Lucifer rage.
"So take that little monster away from our school, she doesn't belong with the rest of the normal children" Escher said glaring with disgust in his eyes at Trixie and at Lucifer. Trixie started balling her eyes out more and with every tear that she cried, the fates of these two fools became worse and worse.
Trixie cried harder and her tears soaked into the armani suit that Lucifer was wearing, Lucifer picked up the little girl and held her close and gave her words of comfort "Don't worry Beatrice, these fools are just scared of you, and they're jealous, you have a nice long life to look forward to, unfortunately for them, they don't" Lucifer rocked the little girl in his arms and allowed her to cry all of the tears she needed, Lucifer then turned around and left but as soon as he closed the door it happened, the royal first guard of hell consisting of Darla, Lilah, Trinity, and Zula, appeared in the room and began what would be hours of merciless torure for principle Williams, and Vice principle Escher, both would soon taste their own balls in their mouths, no one messed with Lucifer's daughter, no one.
Once Lucifer and Beatrice left the school, Lucifer flew up into the sky holding Beatrice close "What those bastards said to you Beatrice was complete lies and hate sweetheart, you're not a freak for growing wings, you're my daughter and your wings are a part of you sweetheart, don't believe a word those men said, I think they're regretting it right now even as we speak" Lucifer said with just a small grin at the last part.
"But I don't know how to use my wings Lucifer, I don't know how to fly or anything, they just literally appeared out of thin air, I not even sure how I got them to disappear again after they showed up, I don't want to be considered a freak either, all my friends think i'm one right now" Trixie said sadness and despair aching in her words. Lucifer just held her closer as he flew her through the air.
"Don't worry my dear, we will go get your mother and Maze, we can reverse time to this morning, and I can teach you all about your wings so that you don't feel so overwhelmed by them, how does that sound Beatrice" Lucifer said as comforting as he possibly could be, Beatrice giggled which relieved Lucifer to no end.
"This is so crazy, my dad is satan, and I have wings, and I have aunt Maze who is a demon" Trixie said giggling and laughing thinking about the craziness of it all.
"And don't forget about your awesome mother Chloe" Lucifer said smiling at the little girl as she giggled.
Trixie then glared at Lucifer curiously which made him nervous, she was too young for 'the talk' and he wasn't sure if he was the right one to give it in the first place "Are you, mommy, and Maze having sleep overs Lucifer?" Lucifer was at a loss for words, there wasn't much sleeping involved, just two perfect tens on his arms everynight, one being the human love of his eternal existence Chloe Decker, and the other being his demon consort of millions of years Mazikeen, of course when they weren't having sex they would in fact cuddle up and watch movies together, so he could tell the little girl yes and not have it be weird or lying in anyway, "Yes Beatrice, we three have sleep overs, we watch violent movies, and eat popcorn" Lucifer said hoping to end any further line of questioning from the curious little girl, he didn't need his two lovers killing him for giving Beatrice too much information, cause Chloe and Maze made a great team (giggity) not going there mentally, Lucifer thought to himself, but those two would be frightening if they were both angry with him.
Lucifer and Beatrice soon landed on the balcony of the penthouse, but what they found left them both worried, a wide eyed, crying and very nervous Maze was pacing back and forth in front of the bar. Lucifer walked in slowly and looked her over feeling very concerned over what he was seeing "Maze my love, are you alright, you seem positively distressed darling" Lucifer said feeling an ominous feeling inside of him, was she sick or something somehow, he felt concern in his soul.
"Aunt Maze, your scaring me, are you alright" Trixie said running up and giving her favorite demon a big hug around the gut just like she would to Lucifer.
Maze patted the little girl on the head and smiled softly but tears falling even more down her face "I'm just fine small human, can you give me and Lucifer a few minutes little human, we need to talk" Maze felt nervousness, and actual nervousness she had never felt, how would he take this, how would he respond, she never imagined that she would have to tell him this.
Trixie nodded her head and left the two of them alone, going into one of the spare bedrooms to play with her toys, she just hoped that everything was alright with Maze, Trixie had never seen her like that before.
"Maze you're scaring me right now darling, is everything alright love, I've never seen you like this before, and honestly with us that's saying something" Lucifer said taking a step forward to stand in front of Maze, he knew this was serious whatever it was.
"Lucifer I need you to promise me that you're not going to freak out and run away or something when I tell you this alright, promise me Lucifer" Maze said glaring at Lucifer, her heart was racing, would he leave, would he reject her, his reaction in this situation meant everything to her.
"Maze I promise, not to leave or abandon you ever, we're a team, you said that to me before and it is truth, I will always be here for you Maze, whatever is going on i'm here alright" Lucifer said calmly and as kindly as possible because he had never seen Maze like this before...ever.
Maze took a deep breath, now was the time, it was now or never "Lucifer...i'm...Pregnant" Maze said slowly and calmly staring into his eyes and hoping his reaction would be the right one.
Lucifer stood there feeling a flood of emotions hit him all at once, but tears of joy started slowly falling from his face as he put his hands on Maze's face and caressed her face gently, and then pulled her into a deep passionate kiss. "That's the greatest news ever Maze, I love you Maze, my demon, and now mother of my child" Lucifer said feeling an anvil of happiness crush him "I love you, I love you so much darling" Lucifer said holding her close.
Maze was crying a river of emotional happy tears, happiness she had never felt before, it was the perfect reaction, from her devil, she just couldn't wait to tell Chloe, that their family was growing.
