Chapter 15

Is This Really How It's Going To End?!

Lucienne pov

"So, you trying to bribe our siblings with a human's way?"

It was 08:15 AM when I felt someone's presence in our house while Hope is still in deep sleep, turn out it was Luce who has this frustrated face and a couple of bottles of red wine in his hands. He's been telling me his effort to have our siblings voice pick him as their new God instead of Michael, "you should start with something catchy and easy to remember, like a "Make Silver City Great Again" phrase, perhaps?"

He rolled his eyes, "it's bad enough that I only have Amenadiel, sister. Why did mother have to force you, Gabe, Az, and Orion to take an oath?!" pouring the red wine into his glass. "Maybe that is why, Luce," I answered. I straighten my back, "maybe you should start from yourself, Luce." He furrows his brow and motions me to continue. "Our siblings said the same thing when you tried to bribe them, right? They are unsure if you're fit to be a God."

"Yes, they are. Do continue, sister."

"So, here are my questions to you... Why are you so hell-bent on wanting to be a God? Are you unhappy with what you have? Who or what are you trying to prove?" I asked him. He frowns, "it's clearly either me or Michael. Can you imagine Michael, who whispering in Dad's ear and making him think he was losing his powers in the first place, all so he could take over now?" asking me back.

I let out a heavy sigh, "yeah, Michael's kind of a dick. He's a massive dick and a grade A asshole. But that's not the answer, Lu. Let's not bring Michael or Dad to our convo, it's about you, yourself, and the big of "Why the hell I want to be the big guy?" or "Who or what am I trying to prove?" question. You can try to seek Zadkiel as your last and desperate choice." 

I know that this person is Detective Chloe Decker, but I want him to say it. 

As he keeps quiet and trying to answer my question, I hear Hope is awake from our room. I get up from the couch, "You can go to Linda for some... inspiring enlightenment." I shrugged my shoulders, "meanwhile, I'm about to make breakfast and you are welcome to join us."

Luce decides to see his therapist to find the answer of my question and not join us on breakfast. After feeding our fur baby a raw meat, I take my small notebook out of my pocket as I feel a new name is written on it, I keep flipping page over the page until it stops on a certain page and find a certain name.
