Chapter 8

Can you die from too many orgasms? Chloe moved slightly and felt every muscle in her body protest. Lucifer may call himself the Devil, but she was pretty sure he was actually a god. One that specialised in sex. Their night together had turned out to be the best sexual experience of her life. She hadn't known it was possible to have that many orgasms in such a short space of time. Lucifer had played her body like she was his piano, always the right note at the right time. In one night he'd managed to find out things about her body that she didn't even know. Like when he bit her in that spot where her neck and her shoulder met, it went straight to her nether regions and soaked her underwear. And when he did it as she came? Holy Hell! She was pretty sure her shoulders would be covered in bite marks, but she couldn't care less.

But the night hadn't just been about great sex. They'd talked and learnt a lot about each other. She felt like they'd bridged a huge gap between them, like there were no more secrets to hide. It was quite a feeling, having someone know everything about you. Chloe thought she had had that with Dan, after all, he was her husband. But she hadn't. She had it with Lucifer. The Devil.

After waking up from a short bout of sleep, Chloe had questioned Lucifer about his sleeping habits.

"I don't need sleep" He'd replied.

"What? C'mon, everyone needs to sleep Lucifer, it's a necessity."

"For humans, yes. But I'm not mortal. I rest, but it's not the way you do. How did you think I could keep going all night long?" He scoffed.

"I… hadn't… thought about it. I guess…" Chloe was beginning to wish she hadn't asked.

Lucifer sighed. "You're still having trouble accepting I'm the Devil aren't you?"

"Ugh, not this again." Chloe threw herself back onto the bed.

"I can show you if you like." That got her attention. She could hear him moving towards her. She sat up and looked at him, squinting her eyes suspiciously. "Not the whole deal mind you. I like you sane, and not in the loony bin. But I can give you a little… demonstration." He looked at her expectantly.

"All right then. Go on." Chloe crossed her arms, raising an eyebrow at him.

Lucifer calmly sat opposite her on the bed and unfolded her arms, taking her hands in his. "No matter what you see or feel, I need you to remember that it's me. The Lucifer you know. Can you do that?" He looked worried. Which worried Chloe.

"Um… Ok…"

Lucifer cleared his throat and closed his eyes. Chloe began to feel heat radiating off him. He was always warm but this was something else. When he opened his eyes, she saw fire in his irises. She gasped and drew back away from him, frightened. Lucifer blinked and his eyes were back to their regular warm brown. He held his hand out to her. "It's alright. You're safe."

Chloe blinked and looked from his eyes to his hand and back again. He's the Devil. She began to remember all the weird shit she'd seen since Lucifer strutted into her life and felt herself start to panic. But as she looked back up into his face, other memories of him began taking over. How he'd thrown himself in front of bullets for her, and was there when she woke up in hospital. How he'd defended her time and time again. His warm smiles and generosity to her. How he always had her back and made her feel not so alone.

She calmed, her heart slowing down from its rapid pace, and reached out to take his hand. Lucifer sighed in relief as he pulled her into his arms. "You really are him, aren't you?" She couldn't deny that it scared her. But Chloe knew evil. She saw it almost every day in her job and Lucifer wasn't evil.

"Yes." He stroked her back in reassuring circles to calm her.

"Do it again."

"What?"

"I want to see it again. I know what to expect this time." Chloe scrambled up and faced him. Not a hint of fear on her face. She could be brave. She could show him that she would accept him no matter what.

Lucifer closed his eyes again, and, just as before, when he opened them Chloe saw fire.

"What is it?" She asked him, fascinated by it as she moved in for a closer look.

"Hellfire. Keeps me warm and toasty." He joked as he watched her face get closer to his. He blinked and the fire was gone, but Chloe's head remained where it stopped. "Having fun there Detective?" He grinned.

"Mmm… You know, once you get used to it, it's not so scary." She gave him a smirk and quick kiss before settling back against the pillows.

It had been a revelation, but strangely enough, Chloe found that once she'd accepted that he was, in fact, the Devil, she felt a calmness come over her.

And now it was morning, Chloe thought as she lifted her head to look at the clock: 5:10. Almost sunrise. She felt both relieved and disappointed. Part of her wanted the night to never end, but the majority of her body was begging for a hot bath and respite from the night's activities. She decided sleep a little longer and snuggled back into the warmth of her bed partner, who draped one arm over her belly and slid the other under her pillow. As she wriggled back into his body, Chloe felt his hardness prodding into her back. Again? What vitamins does he take?

"It's not yet sunrise. The night isn't yet over." He murmured into her ear in that deep sexy voice of his. He nuzzled the back of her neck as he brought his hand between her legs to test her wetness, before slipping his cock inside her. She groaned at the contact and Lucifer pulled her closer to his body. Chloe raised one arm to grip his hair and the other linked her fingers with his under her pillow. They rocked together as the pressure built between them. Chloe felt him rumble in his chest as he began picking up speed, urging them on until her vision began to blur. She came as hard as she had each time throughout the night and brought Lucifer along with her.

As they calmed, he slipped out of her with a grunt, and she turned over to face him. She squealed as Lucifer maneuvered a turn that had Chloe on her back and him above her. He held his weight on his elbows beside her head and looked down at her with a slightly pleading look "Stay."

* Note - I am aware that Chloe accepted the 'Devil' thing really quickly. I didn't want to drag it out. I think she's always known it and was just waiting for proof from him, and now she has it, it's easily acceptable. Sorry if this bothers you.
