Obey me! Lucifer X Reader

Chapter Three: The Beginning of You and I

----

"Listen to me an' make sure ya really open-up ya little human ears!" Annoyed and tired, Mammon pauses halfway through a random pavement, turning around and facing (Y/n) with his hands firmly planted on his hips to show her he means business, "I -I won't enjoy this. Me and ya are stuck together an' it's embarrassin' that I'm having to look after ya or whateva. Don't do, say, or even IMPLY that we're close in front of tha others even if somethin' like that does happen in the future - Which it won't obviously! - but I'm just sayin', just, y'know.. just in case.." Mumblings towards the end, Mammon snaps his head back up,

"Ya got it?!"

Does she understand?

That question is iconic.

All she understands is she just met her fucking soulmate, the person who's literally tied to her by fate, and that it's this tsundere guy's brother, even though they look completely different. Does she understand? No. She's unable to wrap her head around one) the genetics and two) whatever's happening. Both of them make no sense, not in her world where everything is determined by a good, solid reason.

Yeah, she knows what's going on. She's seen it time and time again on TV, or while playing Otome games, or while reading online, but that's just it. It was meant to be limited to fantasies. It wasn't meant to make it's way into reality, and definitely not into hers. On one hand, this was a dream come true, a world she could escape to, but on the other hand it was apparently hell.

Which one's worst?

(Y/n) feels like she's answering one of those cringe 'would you rather?' tests online, like 'would you rather live in a world without your soulmate, or live in a world with a soulmate that hates you?' She couldn't speak for everyone but now she's experienced it, she preferred the world where Lucifer was a fallen angel who rebelled against God, over the world where Lucifer is some sadist, manipulative council member.

So to all those people who answered "hates you.", she can confirm they answered wrong.

Hope her past self heard that somehow.

"Ey ey ey...why'd ya look sad?"

Ah shit...She was thinking so long even Mammon picked it up...She'd have to do better at hiding these things.

Sad...

"Humannn."

No, she wasn't sad. (And Mammon...why u gotta annoy boi).

Despite the fact Lucifer is her soulmate and yes, she does feel pained, she can't be sad over him. I mean she doesn't even know the guy.

"I have a name bitch, it's (Y/n)."

His eyebrows raise so high for a second she thinks they'll shoot up past his forehead, then he turns around with a scowl on his face and marches off. To think he had pity for her, even for a second, annoys him....thinking she'd led some harsh life like many do, thinking the fact Lucifer had shunned her back there had hurt her feelings like it hurt his...Gosh, he was stupid...

She wasn't shunned...she didn't even know the guy.

And when she went into deep silence she could've been thinking about anything, her mind didn't work the same as his.

She...was just a human... He had to look at her like that.

A weak, simple-minded human, who by chance got into hell, and by even greater chance got paired up with him. Something was telling him that it wasn't a coincidence, but every time he looked down at his thread to check, it was the same as always....
