Malachi's POV
Malachi stood, frozen in place.
He wanted to know where Claire had gone. She was here a few minutes ago, then she just disappeared.
Malachi felt his left shoulder being squeezed.
He turned around.
There was Lucifer with a triumphant smirk on his face.
Of course.
Lucifer must have sent Claire away because she wasn't a demon.
Where did he put her?
Malachi got in Lucifer's face and spat out,
"Where did you put her?"
Lucifer had the audacity to be laughing at him.
"Who? Your little girlfriend? I didn't put her anywhere. God is the one who took her. He is probably punishing her now, as we speak. Just like he did to me. "
Malachi shook his head.
"No. He wouldn't do that to Claire."
Lucifer laughed again.
Malachi wanted to punch him in the face.
"You do realize that you two had sex, right? God doesn't want any of his angels to have sex, let alone with a demon. Your girlfriend is probably on Earth now, all alone. I would have you join her, but then you wouldn't be punished."
Malachi gasped.
"Why would I be punished?"
Lucifer grinned a devilish grin.
"Well, because you fucked an angel. We demons may do many things, but we do not have sex with angels. Angels are pure and innocent. We corrupt a lot of people, but not angels. It is forbidden for a demon to have sex with an angel. I know that you knew that, Malachi. Yet, you still did the deed, anyway. So, what do you have to say for yourself, before I banish you somewhere very unpleasant?"
Malachi tried to find the right words to speak.
Finally, he said with a smile on his face,
"I had fun. I don't regret anything. It was the best sex that I have ever had."
Lucifer looked at him,confused at his statement.
"Are those really your last words?"
Malachi smirked.
"Yes. Do with me what you will, Lucifer. I think that I finally found someone who cares about me."
Lucifer guffawed.
"You think that angel actually cares about you? She probably just wanted to fuck a demon to see how it is."
Malachi shook his head.
"No. You are wrong, Lucifer. Claire is different from the other angels. Honestly, she is different from most women."
Lucifer gagged.
"You sound like you are in love with the angel."
Malachi felt his cheeks redden.
Lucifer pointed his finger at him.
"Wait. Are you blushing? You have never blushed the whole time that you have been in Hell. This angel is changing you, Malachi. You used to be my favorite demon. Oh, well. Too bad that you can never be with your angel. You two were doomed from the start."
Malachi sighed.
"I will find her."
Lucifer had another laughing fit.
"Where you are going, you won't be able to find her. Goodbye, Malachi."
He felt electricity through his body and in a flash, Malachi was out of Hell.Malachi looked around and the only thing that was around him was desert.
Lucifer had put him in the middle of nowhere.
He felt like he was the only person in this waste land.
Also, Malachi glanced at his back and saw that his wings were cut in half.
They were white, like Claire's.
Did this mean that he was half angel?
No.
That couldn't be true.
He was a horrible person.
He didn't deserve to have white wings.
Claire did, though.
Malachi knew that Lucifer was lying about her not caring about him.
He wondered what she was doing right now and if she was okay.
Did she have his wings?
No.
That wasn't possible.
Angels couldn't get black wings.
But Lucifer had said that Claire had been banished to Earth.
Which meant that she couldn't go back to Heaven.
All because of him.
Hopefully, she didn't regret having sex with him last night.
After he was done with his inner thoughts, Malachi looked down at his shirt.
He was wearing a white t-shirt with blue jeans.
I guess this means that Lucifer doesn't think of him as a demon anymore.
Malachi didn't know what to think about the outfit change.
He started walking through the desert, hoping to find Claire.
After several hours, he stopped and gazed ahead.
Malachi thought that he could see Claire, a few paces ahead of him, but that couldn't be right.
This was the desert.
It was probably a hallucination.
Damn.
This was a realistic mirage, that was for sure.
"Malachi?"
He could hear Claire say his name, but he knew that it wasn't her.
She got closer to him, right to his chest.
Malachi sighed.
"Look, I know that you are not real, okay. You are a figment of my imagination. I have been walking for a really long time and I miss Claire. That's it."
Claire touched his face with her fingers and it felt so real.
"Oh, Malachi. Lucifer banished you, too. You look so different now."
He looked at what she was wearing and gasped.
She was wearing a red dress.
Lucifer was right.
God did punish her.
"You look different too, Claire. I'm used to you wearing white."
Malachi heard her laugh and it felt like she was near him again.
He knew that this was an illusion, but Malachi didn't care.
He kissed Claire passionately and she kissed him back.
This feels so real.
How is this happening?
