Part 9: Telling Charlie

Lucifer POV:
I'm sitting in my bedroom, currently working on some rubber ducks. I finish putting the antlers on one- wait, antlers? Sometimes I do things subconsciously without realizing I'm doing it. I look at the duck and realize that it has a very similar resemblance to a certain deer. My face heats up, for some reason, Al has just been stuck in my head for the past few days. I know that what I'm feeling..it's a similar feeling to what I felt with Lilith but not quite? Lilith..oh my sweet Lilith..why did you leave us? Why did you leave Charlie? I look at my ring, feeling sad. I know where she is, and I know I should hate her for leaving us behind and going to heaven, I can't bring myself to do so. I vowed to love her for as long as I lived at our wedding and I'm not going to stop now. I feel tears blurring my vision, then rolling down my cheeks. I go over to the mirror, I should really fix myself up. I grab a tissue and wipe the tears off my face. I think..I think it's time to tell Charlie about Lilith. I go downstairs to the lobby, hoping she is there. Sadly she isn't.

"Looking for someone?" I turn around, it's just Al.

"Yes in fact, I am looking for my daughter. Do you know where she is?" I ask.

"Probably in her room with her significant other, but what do you need from her?" I roll my eyes.

"I have something to tell her, which is none of your business." I spat.

"Fine then, goodluck with whatever it is beansprout." I glare at him.

"You are so very lucky that Charlie cares about you." I grumble, walking up the stairs to her room. I knock on the door. Charlie opens it.

"Hey dad! Did you need something?" I look to the side nervously.

"Charlie, there's something I need to tell you. Is Maggie in there?" I try and see.

"No, she went to go see Carmilla for her weekly training. Is it something private?" I nod, stepping into the room. Charlie closes the door.

"Ok, I am going to be as gentle as possible when I say this. Just know, I never meant to keep this a secret, I just didn't want to hurt you." Charlie looks at me with a worried expression.

"It's about your mother and where she has been." Charlie's eyes widen.

"But you said-" she starts, I interrupt her.

"I'm sorry I lied, again, I didn't want to hurt you with the truth, especially since you were still young. Your mother..she made a deal with Adam. To stay in Heaven, if she lets the exterminations happen." Charlie gasps horrified. She puts her hand over her mouth.

"But..wouldn't they have to ask you that?" I nod.

"Yes, and I agreed to let exterminations happen, which was my mistake. But you have to get approval from both the King and Queen to let it happen. Your mother loved this place much more than I did, so they offered her paradise if she agreed to let extermination happen. I stayed behind because you were too young and Hell still needs a ruler." By that point, we were both sitting down with my hand on Charlie's back.

"She just..she just left me like that though. She gave up her own kid? For her own selfish desires?" She started becoming angry, her horns slightly showing.

"She loved you though, very much, and it was hard for her to decide. But ultimately yes..she gave in to the deal." I finish. Tears start rolling down Charlie's eyes. I move her head on my shoulder and pat it.

"Shh..it's ok.." I whisper. Her sobs die down and she looks at me.

"Can I..can I see her?" My eyes widen, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised if she wants to see her mom.

"Honestly honey? She might not want to see you, Hell, she might not even talk to me because she didn't want you knowing about it." I sigh.

"I get it..and I mean, if she left me and didn't even bother to say goodbye then, why should I say hello to her?" She smiles at me, wiping the tears off her face.

"Thank you for telling me dad." I nod.

"Of course, you have a right to know, especially since you will take her place some day." I wink, Charlie giggles. I give her one last hug before heading back to my room.

Alastor POV:
So..that's where the Queen has been huh? Interesting..maybe if I tell $&@ this then they will be pleased and let me off.
I grab my cane and head back to my room, then I call $&@ on it.

"Alastor? Why in Hell are you calling me? It idk you that wasn't allowed, only I get to contact you. You will be punished for this-"

"Now now, the only reason I've called you is because I have some important information." I interrupt.

"Oh~ tell me more my pet." I roll my eyes at the nickname.

"I know where your sister is."

(Yes y'all, I don't think it's Lilith who owns Alastor's soul alright? I'll explain more about my theory in a different chapter. Anyways, bye my lovelies<3)
