Miracle

Pt. 36

" Go to your room we'll try again later" her father says at if to completely dismiss her he walks into the house without looking back at her. She continues to pant softly looking up at the dark sky her body was to tired to move it felt like she's been practicing for hours and her muscles hurt from all the constant arm movements. She stands up slowly rubbing a bruise that was starting to form on her arm that yellow demon was finally able to land a hit on her and it hurt like hell her father showed no remorse father when the demon hit her he claimed she should have been faster then she wouldn't have got hit. She makes her way back inside look down at her shirt it still had jagged claw marks and dry blood ripped across the front she walks into the guest room she was currently sleeping in closing the door softly behind her she angrily takes off the shirt throwing it at the closed door huffing loudly as she paces around before walk over to the closest opening it. It was already fully stocked with clothes the day she got there in a variety of sizes for all kind of different events mostly all black pieces reaching she pulls out a basic black t-shirt she slips it on her head before sitting on the side of the bed. She pulls the necklace from over her head holding it tightly in her hand before look down at the bright emerald at least it could still protect her from demons physically touching and grabbing onto her so she still decides to wear it but when her father grab her earlier he showed no signs of discomfort. She wondered why he didn't act like it was burning him but maybe he was just hiding the pain he felt. Her father throws open her door without knocking she quickly slips the necklace back on turning on the bed to face him " You going to need to start getting ready we have a event to go to later" she raised a eyebrow this was the first time since she's been here he's talked about a event. She slowly stands up was he walks closer into the room looking through her closet " An event...for what?" her father let's out a light laugh forgetting that she didn't know the customs of hell " We are having a ball for your return for you unlocking your powers tonight I'm going to also announce you being my right hand the whole underworld will soon know your name...we are going to rule over hell together" he says before turning back to the closet pulling out a black full length dress with a dark blue corset style top. She glares at his back " I don't want to go" she says strongly he sighs turning fully to her " You will go Lily that's final everyone in the underworld will be there...even Satan himself will be there to see my beautiful daughter you will not humiliate me by not going and you'll wear this". He throws the dress onto the bed before walking to her standing Infront of her he reaches his hand out ripping the necklace right off her neck she lets out alittle yell in surprise " And you won't be needing this anymore it may work on weaker demons but definitely not me. If you fuck this up for me tonight you'll regret it." she rubs her neck as he makes his way to the door throwing it open " I'll send some maids in to help you with your makeup and hair when the moon is that the highest point in the sky is when the ball begins you will be ready by then" he says before slamming the door closed behind him. Now she was without her necklace for protection the demons here could do what ever they wanted with her she picked up the dress holding it up to her body as she looked at herself in the full length mirror just a year ago she had no idea about this whole world now she's about to get ready for a ball celebrated in her honor. Throwing the dress onto the bad she looks out the stained glass windows rubbing the place on her neck were the necklace once sat watching as different demons decorate the outside of the house for the ball " Please hurry Alex".

"This place is huge inside how are we going to find what room she's in?" Max whispers as the walking down one of many hallways " The demons in this place seem to busy notice us so we have time" Alex says as a demon rushes by them holding a tray of different foods. There presents was unminded by the demons around them they walked past the different demons as they walked around decorating and moving things around they seemed to busy preparing for what Alex assumed was from some kind of party or big event. Two female demons walk past them carrying different makeup and hair products gossiping and chatting " I heard Alistair asked to have a beautiful gown made for her he's really pulling out all the stops for her coronation" the yellow skinned demon say the shorter red demon looks at her " It's a honor for us to be chosen to do her hair and make up for the ball honestly she should be more greatful to be here her father is rich and literally Satan's right hand Lily would live well here" the yellow rolls her eyes laughing at her co-workers comment " Not everyone cares about climbing the social ladder...she was literally kidnapped for her home have some pity Ivy". Alex grabs Max's arm and they follow them at a distance " They're going to Lily we follow them we find her" they both agreed Alex realized the party was probably for Lily's coronation he had get them all out of here before she was officially known to all the underworld as Alistair's daughter.
