The Devil's Love

Chapter 2

Aurora's POV:
We walked out of the ceremonial banquet, with him, of course dragging me. There was a black Rolls-Royce sweptail which was followed by, roughly 15 Rangerovers. If not for his devilish aura, anyone would want to be in my position. Even I was taken aback for a second, by this display. I snapped out of my thoughts when he grabbed my waist and pulled me closer. While looking in my eyes, he said, "Like the view, sweetheart?" Before I could say anything, he pushed me in the car. I hit my head on the seat. Ouch! Is he so deprived of basic manners that he doesn't even know how to ask someone to sit in the car? Lunatic! I adjusted myself as he sat on the other side. I was so tired. Slowly, my eyelids drooping, I rested my head on the back of the seat and my eyes closed before I could realise that I was in a deep sleep.
When I woke up, Lucifer was looking at me with an expression that I can't describe. As soon as he noticed that I finally regained my senses, he said, "Seems like you had a good nap?" I look back to him and tried to reply when he again said, "Let's not waste more time. The night is long and we have so much to do." He smirked and I know I'm in a deep trouble.
He got out of the car and I was told to do the same. In order to prevent myself from being in the harsh embrace of his, I hurriedly get out of the car. The driver takes the car away and I am now, infront of this luxurious mansion.

I had always wished for something simple but I never thought of living in such a place. The mansion was nothing less than a castle. Infront of the house, there are gardens on both the sides with all sorts of plants and flowers that I've never seen before. The door was magnificent, of course the one that leads into the house. It seemed as if I'm a queen entering the castle. Oh, what life it would've been if Lucifer wasn't the one standing next to me. I didn't know if I am supposed to be happy or not because having this kind of place to spend your life is really a blessing but being with him is a curse. The place was surrounded by so many guards that even I started counted now, it'll definitely take hours to know the total number of body guards he own.
As I was absorbing the beauty of the place, Lucifer, with his smirk, looked at me again taunting, "Looks like you're satisfied with the house." I look away and he leans in and whispers, "You will be more satisfied once we're alone, honey." His words make my cheeks hot and there I blush.
Wait, what?! Why am I blushing over this jerk's words? Is something wrong with me? Nope! No way!
I was throwing curses at me when a short heightened lady, in a maid's uniform comes over and says," Welcome back Master Knight." He didn't reply and moves in. The lady offers me a sweet smile and I smile back. I follow Lucifer and enter his magnificent Palace. There was a huge chandelier in the middle. Fawn coloured sofas with gold colour wood were luxuriously arranged in the lounge. The hallway had red carpets. There was a big armchair in the corner, to opposite of which was a big TV screen. It gave me the feeling of a cinema. I was taking in every inch of this place when I bumped into someone's back.
Damn it! It's Lucifer! Oh Aurora, why do you have to be a disaster?! I was cursing myself again when he, without turning, said, "Take her to the room."

The man said, "Yes Master." He turned to me and said, "Mrs. Knight, please." I started to follow him. Never daring to look back at the man, who was now supposed to be my husband. On the way to my so called room, we went through a hallway with alot of pictures on both the walls. It seemed as if it was Lucifer. But I made a small mental note justifying that it can't be him because the kid in those pictures was a bright one. Smiling and happy. But Lucifer? Does he even know how to smile? I kept following this servant of Lucifer. He opened the door and there I was.

The room wasn't very big but for a girl like me, it was the most beautiful one. The floor was wooden. With a king sized bed. The back was comfy with lamps on the side tables. There was a TV screen on opposite side of the bed. The window was big, with velvet curtains covering it. I walk over to it, pull away the curtains and I can see those gardens. With unknown flowers. Beautiful!
I look back and see a walk in closet. I open it and walk in to see all sorts of designer dresses. So many of them. If not for Lucifer, I'd think it is sort of romantic. But again, it's that jerk. How can he be so considerate to have me wear these marvellous dresses? I sigh and move out of it.
The man smiled at me and said, "If you need anything you can call me, Mrs. Knight."
"What's your name?" I ask. He looked a bit confuse but then, he offered me a warm smile and say, "You can call me Edward." I smiled at him and nodded my head "It's nice to meet you Edward." He smiles and go out of the room.
I was so tired so I get my clothes and take a quick shower.
As I lie down, I wondered when will Lucifer come in and destroy my peace. His words playing in my mind. I wasn't able to keep myself up so I just prayed;

" Hopefully tomorrow will be better. "
