The Fallen Angel

The call

**Lucifer's POV**

I sat on the bar counter as Rhys made us drinks. "Do you think he'd give me a second chance?" I asked and Rhys looked up from his drink.

"After what you did? No. But he is your soulmate," He answered.

"Don't remind me," I murmured as I grabbed my drink. Rhys laughed and we walked into the living area. I sat down on the black leather couch and Rhys sat in his regular chair. He turned on the TV and put on FoxNews. The realm was going to shit. As always.

"You know they never had any of these problems when I was human," Rhys said and I laughed.

"People could barely talk when you were human," I reminded him and he scoffed.

"It wasn't that long ago," he muttered.

"I created you in 1300 BC!" I yelled with a laugh. He scoffed and held a hand to his chest.

"At least I'm not an old woman like you," he says with a smirk.

"I'm physically 21," I grumbled.

"Alright mommy," Rhys said and I laughed.

"What does that make you?" I asked as I took a swig of my drink.

"Your gay best friend," I raised an eyebrow.

"Rhys," he looked away from me, "Rhys are you telling me that you're gay?" He nodded softly. I smiled, "Love is love Rhys. Don't be afraid to tell me shit like that."

"I thought you'd be mad," he murmured and I walked over. I held his hands in my own.

"Why would I be mad? You're my best friend, I couldn't give two fucks about who you fuck." I said and Rhys laughed, finally looking in my eyes.

"I love you Lucifer," he murmured.

"I love you too. Forever and always Rhys," I murmured back as he hugged me.

My phone rang when I was doing something for work. I sighed and picked it up, "Hello?"

"Lucifer," Alice said, "It's Edward. He's going to the Volturi to kill himself."

I groaned, "For fucks sake." I slipped into a dark red dress and put on heels, "Carlisle had one job."

"Why are you blaming Carlisle? Bella is the one who went cliff diving," Alice replied.

"He's killing himself because of her? They're not even soulmates," I said as I grabbed my bag and keys.

"Ouch," Bella muttered.

"Get over it," I said as I hopped into my car. "I'm gonna fly there. I'll meet you outside of Voltura."

"Okay, see you soon," Alice muttered. I hung up and got out of my car. I released my wings and jumped off the cliff.

He had fucking one thing to do. I bet he let Edward go off alone. And here I was thinking about begging for forgiveness.

The ocean was black under me as I flew high enough so no one could see me but low enough to not be in a flight path. Wind blew my hair all over. Cold burned my eyes.

Hours later, I stood by gates as Alice pulled up in a yellow Porsche. I shook my head as she rolled the window down, "Grand Theft Auto?"

"Shut up," she said and I put my hands up defensively.

"I'm gonna go save your brother," I said and Bella scoffed.

"In that?" She asked.

"Damn straight," I said and took off running. Bella scrambled after me as I ran through the crowd. Lots of people looked at me suspiciously as I pushed past them.

I spotted Edward and called out to him in my mind. He snapped his head toward me and I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Lucifer?" His voice was strained.

"What are you doing?" I asked as Bella walked up behind me out of breath. "Edward you have so much left to live for. You're really going to Katherine? What about Esme and Carlisle and Adrain? If you die it'll crush them!" Tears ran down my face and Edward pulled me closer.

"What about you?" He murmured.

"I'd survive. Somehow I always do," I murmured. "I'd barely get by. I wouldn't be able to face your family. I'd fucking resurrect you so I could kill you for it and then resurrect you again."

"I didn't realize you cared that much," A tiny voice said.

"Of course I do Jane. Now let's get on with the trial." I said and Edward sighed.
