Timeless; Boundless (Obey Me x Reader)

LUCIFER: Masterpiece

Author's note:

Hello again. Forgive me for a bit of a late update. I was suffering from a writer's block lately that's why I'm kinda having trouble on constructing the words I wanted to imply in my story. Regarding the music I've chosen, yes, ambient music helps a lot while reading this chapter (well, because I used it while typing and crying at the same time). 

So yep, please do support my other works as well. It would mean a lot to me. Thank you and enjoy your reading experience <3

*Lucifer's POV*

She had fallen asleep on my chest right after her intense crying and thankfully, that area where we resided was rarely visited by anyone except her. Our kiss temporarily dissolved her tears but she continued as soon as we stopped. I did not expect her to be so bold to kiss a ruthless demon like me. I knew that she was aware enough how I killed countless people before she was even born. All I could think about was that we're not meant to be together but somehow our strings got entangled with each other. I treated her as if she was a complete nuisance in my life, my brothers' lives, and called her stupid over her selfless intentions.

I felt sadness whenever she would intertwine her lips to mine, like it wasn't pleasurable at all, similar to a double-edged sword piercing through me. Then I remembered the night wherein I forced her to make a pact with me and she stayed the night just to grant my selfish desires before leaving Devildom. That, there I realized that there was nothing but fear inside her as I took over her freedom, not knowing how badly she's hurting.

Frustration hit me hard for using my pride on something that isn't necessary at all; in fact, this is going to be the first time I'll call myself an idiot. I didn't know that her passionate self would turn into hostility.

"I'm sorry, Y/N. I didn't know that you are going through all of these because of me. Is there a way for me to make it up to you?", of course, silence would be the one responding because evidently, she's sound asleep out of exhaustion. After all, she needed to take a break from everything she's carrying on her back. I wanted to take all of them and carry them myself just to see her smile again.

I only need her smile.

Not a little while, I decided to go back to the mansion where my brothers were waiting for us in the living room. Their expressions grew in worry as they saw Y/N sleeping weakly in my arms. There weren't any conversations after that because they all want me to let her rest throughout the upcoming weekend.

So I followed, gently tucking her to her blueberry scented bed then placed the plushie of her beside which Levi made on her birthday. Afterwards, I stood up to leave the room and finally had a talk with the rest of my brothers.

Back in the living room where all of my brothers waited for a hearty conversation, I arrived with a tray of jasmine tea on my hands then placed it on the center table made of thick fibreglass. The seven of us surrounded the table: Mammon and Levi lounging on the sofa, Satan across them reading a John Green book, Asmodeus staring at a blank space a few steps away from where I was standing, and the twins shoving pizza into their mouths with hesitation. One could feel the melancholic atmosphere residing in and out of our noses, faces filled with grey alone.

I took a bit of a breather before I uttered the words my mouth wanted to say since this morning. Finally, I spoke with an obvious worry released from my throat, "Y/N is asleep now. I guess we can now talk freely about this situation."

Beel, who had put down a slice of his homemade pizza, sighed with his periwinkle eyes affixed on the ceiling. "I still haven't told you what I saw last week after our movie night. I think you can remember the time when I followed Y/N to the kitchen to help her out." He stopped on his track of words then covered the shining light above him with his massive hand, and he continued, "I didn't see her there, instead she was inside the gym crying. All I saw was that she's stepping on the weighing scale. Right there I knew that she's starting to get scared about her weight. Although, I still wonder why she forces herself to eat that much and throw them all up."
