and he is the sun

Summary: Morpheus loves the werewolf guard of Lucifer despite the fact that they don't get to stay together very much, as she lives in the depths of hell. While she is desperate to leave and live with her lover, the fear of Lucifer is always there. How could she even possibly get out?

"Do I have to return now?" (Y/N) asked Morpheus, who was holding her gently. There was a plead in her tone. Don't make me leave you.

He sighed, kissing her forehead. Hating this moment. He hated stealing away her hope every time he had to let her leave him. "You're waking up." He told her regretfully. "I will see you another time."

He wanted to keep her by his side, but he knew that wasn't possible.

She had asked him to put her into an eternal sleep, so she wouldn't have to go back to hell. But Morpheus knew his own limits. If someone found her sleeping body and killed her in hell, she would be ripped from the dreaming and stuck in hell forever.

And as she faded from his realm, his hands dropped to his sides. Morpheus returned to his duties, hoping she would return soon.

(Y/N) and Morpheus should have never met, should have never fallen in love. She was one of the were-creatures, taken to Hell to act as a guardian of the Underworld. Eventually becoming Lucifer's guard.

But despite her supposed loyalty to the Ruler of Hell, she could still dream. She would enter the Dreaming, reuniting with Morpheus. It was never for long, but it kept her sane in this prison of a Realm.

But her double life wouldn't last long. Lies are common in Hell, demons thrive on untruths. But there's nothing you can keep from the Ruler of the Underworld.

No matter how smart you think you are.

"(Y/N), are you paying attention?" Lucifer's smile was cold and empty, their voice poisonously sweet. "I asked you a question."

(Y/N) was flustered, mentally hitting herself for getting distracted. "What? Oh, I'm sorry my Grace. What was the question?"

"I was just wondering if you were going to tell me about your sleeping trips to visit Dream of the Endless? My enemy."

The breath was knocked out of (Y/N) lungs at that question.

Lucifer knew. They knew about her and Morpheus, and was going to pull her apart by the limbs for it. (Y/N) was horrified. "Your Grace..." Desperation was thick in her voice.

"I can destroy you for this betrayal, Pet." Lucifer was smiling, but (Y/N) had been around them long enough that she could tell how they were truly feeling. They were trembling with rage, thinking about all the ways that they could torture the werewolf.

Fear enveloped (Y/N)'s mind, terrified of her ruler.

But...

She couldn't back down. There was no way out but forward now that Lucifer knew. No way to survive unless she acted like a devil herself. "And risk Morpheus's wrath?" She could see the Devil getting even angrier at that. "If I disappear he'll know exactly what happened."

"You..." Lucifer lunged forward, reaching out to grab her by the hair. "You traitorous little bitch." (Y/N) gasped at the sudden movement, knowing there was no one else in the room to keep Lucifer professional.

But Lucifer suddenly stilled, hand wrapped around (Y/N)'s neck.

The dark smile returned. "And how do you know that Morpheus will do anything? Even if he truly loves you, you really think he cares enough to go to war with hell?" When (Y/N) couldn't reply, they continued. " No, you aren't important and you know it."
