The one and only Devil

Wings and devilish things

There was a knock on the door on  Wednesday morning. Cordelia walked to the front door and opened it. Lucifer was standing there.

"Will you have sex with me?"

"What the fuck Lucifer!" She slammed the door in his face.

"Cordelia? Why are shutting me out? It is cold out here!"

"First the whole stripper thing happened and now you want to come into my apartment to have sex with me? You must be fucking delusional Lucifer!"

"Language."

"I don't give a shit."

"Well you should. I have a job for you it will skim a large sum of money off your debt!"

"I don't want to hear it Lucifer and frankly I just want to go back to sleep."

"Cordelia, Cordelia, if you start denying jobs and not letting me into your house I might have to send my wife down here to sort this out. I have been nice to you Cordelia. But my wife? She will tear you limb for limb." Cordelia froze, she had heard about Madeline Morningstar her reputation was horrific. Apparently she was on the top of the FBI's most wanted list. They have never gotten her, investigations have literally died under Maderline's boot. All while she has managed to rule the underground markets like a literal queen. Although Cordelia respected the woman's reputation she never wanted to meet her.

"I don't want to meet the bitch, but I also don't want to talk to you either. Go away and let someone else do all this job notifying, surely this is below you."

"Tick tock Cordelia I am getting cold out here and as for handing this special job off to someone else that is simply not possible. Let me in."

"Ahuh. Have fun freezing out there. I am going back to bed. I look forward to see who you assign to the job." There was no answer from the other side of the door. "Lucifer? Are you ok? Please answer me otherwise I will post to social media about your medical illness of ice cold balls."

"No need" The bastard was behind her. 

"How in gods name how..."

"Don't bring my dear daddy into this he only makes conversations much much more boring." He glanced at her. " As you were saying about my ice cold balls." She stared at him blankly, eyes wide. "Now go on Cordelia don't get shy now Lucifer wants to know." Her mouth slightly opened she looked scared and surprised as she pointed behind him. Lucifer glanced backwards.
"Fuck they have grown back." 

His wings were white and one of the prettiest things she has ever seen. Too bad they grew on the back of one of the most annoying people god had thrown her way. "Lucifer. Explain!" He folded his wings back and looked like he had seen a ghost. 

"Now this is gonna sound quite strange but I need your help."

"With what? You obviously are quite beyond my help. I must be hallucinating. I obviously am quite beyond helping myself too." Lucifer tried to grab her hand. "Nup not happening today demon? Angel? Devil? thing? I don't know. But you are not touching me." She leaned into whisper to him. Pausing for dramatic effect. "What if it is contagious?"

"Contagious? Are you absurd? Of course it is not contagious! Dear old dad just grew them back and I need you to cut them off."

"You have got to be kidding." That's it. He is delusional and I am hallucinating. 

"No I am not kidding. I need to cut them off!" 

"This must be some sort of party trick. Or a prank. Come out guys very funny. I don't know how you managed to get the guy I owe a hell a lot of money to be in on this but it's not very funny."
