Your room was a sanctuary of shadows, a place where secrets could hide in the darkness. You sat on the edge of your bed, the silence broken only by the faint hum of the city outside. Your hands trembled slightly as you held a small, glinting blade. The cool metal felt almost comforting against your skin, a twisted promise of relief from the emotional storm within.

As you pressed the blade against your arm, a sharp pain sliced through the numbness, bringing with it a flood of raw, unfiltered emotion. It was a way to feel something, anything, in the oppressive void that seemed to consume you. Each cut was a desperate attempt to reclaim control, to anchor yourself in a reality that felt increasingly out of reach.

Lost in your thoughts, you didn't hear the door creak open. Lucifer, the King of Hell himself, stood in the doorway, his piercing eyes fixed on you. He was an imposing figure, his presence commanding respect and fear in equal measure. But as he took in the scene before him, his expression shifted from its usual mask of authority to one of shock and anger.

"What do you think you're doing?" His voice was a low growl, filled with a dangerous mix of fury and concern.

You looked up, startled, the blade slipping from your grasp and clattering to the floor. The anger in his eyes was terrifying, and you instinctively recoiled, bracing yourself for his wrath.

"Do you have any idea how foolish this is?" he snapped, his tone harsh. "Do you understand the consequences of such actions?"

Tears welled up in your eyes, a mixture of shame and fear. "I'm sorry," you whispered, barely able to meet his gaze. "I just... I didn't know what else to do."

Lucifer's expression softened slightly, the anger in his eyes giving way to something more complex. He took a deep breath, his shoulders relaxing as he forced himself to calm down. Slowly, he approached you, kneeling down to pick up the discarded blade.

"This," he said, holding the blade between his fingers, "is not the answer. It never will be."

You looked away, unable to bear the weight of his gaze. "I just wanted the pain to stop."

Lucifer sighed, his voice gentler now. "I know. But hurting yourself won't make it go away. It will only make things worse."

He sat down beside you, his presence surprisingly comforting. For a moment, there was only silence, the air thick with unspoken words. Finally, he turned to you, his eyes filled with a rare tenderness.

"Talk to me," he said softly. "Tell me what's going on. Let me help you."

The dam broke, and all the emotions you had been holding back came rushing out. You told him everything—your fears, your doubts, the crushing weight of your own mind. And Lucifer listened, really listened, his expression never wavering from one of understanding and compassion.

As the words poured out, a sense of relief washed over you. It was as if a burden had been lifted, the darkness inside you dimming just a little. When you finally finished, Lucifer reached out, taking your hand in his.

"You are not alone," he said firmly. "Whatever you're going through, you don't have to face it by yourself. I'm here for you."

For the first time in a long while, you felt a glimmer of hope. Lucifer's presence, his unwavering support, was a lifeline in the storm. And as you sat there, hand in hand with the King of Hell, you realized that maybe, just maybe, you could find your way out of the darkness after all.
