[Just wanna point this out so there's no confusion, Henry's mother is the daughter of Eobard Thawne, not his sister. I know some said she was his sister but she is in fact his daughter, Eobard is Henry's grandfather.]

The sun shined peacefully into the room through the curtains as Maze woke from her slumber as she rubs her eyes as she looks and sees she wasn't wearing any clothes

She chuckles remembering last night's activities with Henry; she was usually hesitant about doing so much with one person but the way Henry made her whole body feel...she just went with it

Then again she was sure she made an impact with Henry she tried her best to make him feel pleasure just as he made her feel

She sees turns her body over as she puts her hand through her hair as she sees Henry standing by the window as he looked out just gazing outside

Maze: You okay?

Henry chuckles as he turns to her seeing her now awake

He had woken up a few hours ago; he even went to get their clothes from the alley though he was just gonna leave and not even tell her but he decided to stay so he didn't have to deal with his problems right away

Henry: Morning. You're clothes are sitting on the dresser.

Maze nods as she gets out of the bed as Henry turns back to the window as she goes over and starts to put her clothes on

Maze: You know when I sleep with a man they usually leave before I wake up but then again the way you made me feel; I'd say you were god.

Henry laughs as he turns around and leans against the window as he replies

Henry: I'm not god, that I can say. Have you ever met god?

Maze chuckles as she ignores his question and continues to get dressed; Henry turns back around understanding she didn't wanna answer as he looks back outside

Henry: I control a whole city.

Maze stops hearing his words as she slowly steps a few feet towards him

Henry: I took it in the palm hand... killed people to get it. And for years I've been a king watching over my throne as everyone begged for mercy but I didn't give them any.

Maze: And what? You regret it.

He couldn't say that he regretted it; he couldn't say that he wished for a time when he didn't have his city; his throne...because he loved it; he loved being in control of a city that he took with his own hands

Henry: No. I say this because I look out at Los Angeles seeing the people walk around as if their own problems don't matter as if they can happily say that they were just that... happy. The literal devil walks amongst them and blame him for their sins just as the people in my city blame me for theirs.

Henry turns around to Maze as she takes a step back; for the first time since she met him; he was showing the side he hide...his bad side

Henry: I thought that by controlling the world that I could forge it in my image; my kingdom; but how? How can I create a better world if the people out there blame me for their sins?

Maze: Are you at fault for them?

Henry looks down at the ground and then looks back up at Maze as he walks towards her

Henry: Thanks for the fun, Maze. It'd been a while since I had that.

Henry walks past her as he opens the door and walks out of it leaving Maze by herself

But it was funny; all she saw was the Lucifer she used to know; the one who wanted hell as his kingdom and enjoyed it before he decided to blame god and take a vacation in Los Angeles
