In Hell's Satan [GirlxGirl]

chapter 5: Hords

Lilithia was aiding Satan Asiul as she got dressed. There will be a meeting in a few minutes later on. Lilithia was somewhat surprised at how lax the satan is.

"Won't the Helldom leaders be angry?" Lilithia asked.

Satan Asiul looked at her strangely and burst into laughter.

"They're patient. Don't worry. Besides, the hords know that I'm tired of all the traveling and inspection I'm doing," Satan Asiul said before winking at Lilithia and leaving the room.

Lilithia stood there dumbfounded. She blinked a few times before continuing to clean Satan Asiul's room. Lilithia folded her sleeves and began cleaning. She was rather proud and had a smile on her face when the room was finally squeaky clean. Lilithia grabbed the plastic tub, placed the cleaning cloth inside it, and walked towards the cleaning supplies room.

"Lilithia!" Shelby shouted from afar.

Despite being startled, she only managed a glare. Lilithia's hands found their way to the tip of her nose. She inhaled deeply. I swear you would be the end of me.

"So how did it go? Satan Asiul is such a charmer. She's got a fan club too," Shelby winked.

Shelby grabbed another maid with glasses and orange hair in a bob haircut named Irahs with a broad smile on her face and gave Irahs a peck on the cheek, causing the latter to blush a deep red.

"Right?" Shelby said with an adorable smile while looking at Irahs.

"Irahs's a big fan of Satan Asiul; she even drew a poster of her. You should see it one time," Shelby bragged proudly.

Irahs blushed deeply at what Shebly mentioned.

Lilithia, who saw all that, was smirking internally. She took the chance and slipped out, heading towards the kitchen while Shebly was talking with Irahs. Lilithia fixed her apron and prepared the tea, which will be served in the meeting room.

Lilithia knocked on the door and waited for the door to open by itself, hinting that she was welcomed. She pushed the trolly inside the meeting room. There were three hords — the leaders of the large Helldoms of Hell. All were young-looking. This made Lilithia thought about the previous demons she had seen. They were all young. Maybe the afterlife really ages people backward.

Lilithia made sure to look at her hords. There was a handsome purple-haired man. When Lilithia saw no Adam's apple, she knew that she was wrong. She's a woman. The one across her was a young and handsome-looking man with his hair perfectly combed. Lastly, there was also a lad — a pink-haired one. Lilithia disregarded her thoughts. She speculated that they all had been here manys years already.

Lilithia served the tea one by one to each of hords. She was caught off guard when a hord winked at her, and gave her a flashing smile. It was the one across the female hord with short purple hair, combed adequately.

"Don't you have a dear husband waiting for you, Hampher?" The female hord rolled her eyes.

"Kayleigh, chill. Ladies love it when I flirt with them, don't they?" He said, looking at Lilithia.

Lilithia's eyes looked dead, then she just smiled, which made the whole room, including Satan Asiul, laugh out loud. She felt a pair of eyes on her. When Lilithia turned her head, she locked eyes with Satan Asiul, who in return winked at her. But, instead of those dead eyes, her ears became warm. With this, Lilithia immediately excused herself.

"Wait!" Satan Asiul commanded.

Satan Asiul turned to the hords and loudly announced, "Meeting's over," before grabbing Lilithia's hand and leaving the room together. The hords were left there, stunned.

Since when has our satan been that close to a maid? The hords thought, not knowing that the satan herself had appointed a personal maid after hundreds of years ruling Hell without one.

***

Lilithia was being pulled by the satan as they headed towards the carriage. The carriage was huge enough to fit four people. It was made of gold with two wild fanged horses with bloody red eyes that looked like the predator version of Earth's horses in front pulling it. Lilithia looked at it once more before heading inside the carriage. It really fits the satan's image well. The carriage was painted red and made with gold. Lilithia stepped in and sat on the opposite side of the satan.

Lilithia had a smile on her face while contemplating whether to ask the satan why she was pouting. Had she perhaps offended the satan?

"Satan Asiul, are you unhappy?" Lilithia managed to ask.

Satan Asiul's face lit up after Lilithia was concerned about her and flashed a wide smile.

"How'd you know!" The satan excitedly exclaimed.

"Come sit beside me," Satan Asiul continued.

In a flash, Satan Asiul grabbed Lilithia's wrists and pulled. Lilithia blinked a few more times to process what had happened. Realizing she was now beside the happy satan, who was swinging her body left to right and vice versa, Lilithia just smiled.

"Satan Asiul, you have to be careful next time, or else I might die," Lilithia calmly said.

Satan Asiul chuckled and placed an arm around Lilithia's shoulders that caused Lilithia to flinch a little out of surprise.

"You're already in the afterlife. You won't die, but I'll be careful," Satan Asiul smiled again.

"Oh, and call me Asiul, drop the satan," Satan Asuil tapped Lilithia's nose with her index finger before relaxing inside the carriage again.

Lilithia's heart rate quickened once more. Is she a natural flirt? Was she flirting with me? Stop it Bella- no, it's Lilithia. You're Lilithia now. You have been single for so long while you were alive that you don't know what love is anymore. This might be just because she's so charismatic and affable, unlike your boss back on Earth. No- wait. That's isn't even the problem. She's Satan-the satan. Lilithia tried to convince herself.

Despite her calm demeanor, Lilithia was panicking inside instead. The love she never experienced before; and the love she didn't acknowledge. The quick heart rate Lilithia suddenly experienced, made her stressed. No. You're just new to this. Yes, that must be it. On the other hand, the happy satan was excited to show Lilithia around, and decided to skip her work today.

"We're here, Satan Asiul," The coachman said.

Satan Asiul snapped her fingers, and their clothes changed. Satan Asiul was now wearing simple commoner's clothes — a white shirt with lacing and rugged cuffs similar to a tunic with a belted waist and breeches. Lilithia, on the other hand, was now wearing a gown with a sleeveless tunic complemented by a white long sleeve shirt.

"Doesn't this hairstyle look beautiful on you?" Satan Asiul reached her hand and gently touched Lilithia's half-up braid.

Lilithia stared at the glass window and saw herself. Indeed she looked more beautiful than ever. A sudden thought of grooming herself popped in her mind. Stop. Lilithia told herself. She did look nice.

"How are you able to do that?" Lilithia asked calmly despite her inner world in chaos.

"Mana," Satan Asiul smiled.

Satan Asiul exited the carriage and offered a hand to Lilithia. From afar, they really looked like couples.
