The King's Forbidden Maid

Chapter 5

The meeting ended after roughly an hour, Gemini kept flashing annoyed glanced at Rome that caused her to roll her eyes more than she thought possible. When she wasn't rolling her eyes or talking politics, she was gazing at Lucifer like a snack she wished to taste. It was honestly cringe worthy and those around her in the room including the king himself, did. If there wasn't a desk in the way she probably would have pounced on him. Rome shook the thoughts out of her head as she tended to the dishes from the meeting, ensuring they were properly cleaned. 

As she was cleaning, the kitchen staff headed in to prepare the king's lunch. They always started early because of how expansive a menu they created, even though he barely ever ate around lunchtime, but more food for the staff. Once she finished the dishes, she left the kitchen heading down a lengthy hallway up some stairs that matched the dark hard wood floor halls. She headed up them to the king's room, typical at this hour so she could clean it in peace. 

She opened the door and as usual the room was empty. The canopy bed in the middle of the room had blankets that were hanging off the bed and disheveled. The night stand on the left cluttered, the right neat and empty. The closet door wide open revealing a messy closet, one she never bothered to clean. The door to the adjacent bathroom was shut, which was odd, but only peaked a hint of curiosity, if any at all. She moved further into the room and got to work tidying the floor, picking up clothes and throwing them into a hamper that was nearby. She then moved to make the bed as she did she heard the bathroom door open, she turned around to see Lucifer standing there, clothed thankfully, drying his hair with a towel.

"Cleaning off the presence of Gemini are we?" she asked as she turned back around to make his bed.

Lucifer rolled his eyes in response, "ha, but no, I spilt some tea on myself"

"How clumsy of the oh so put together king," she said as she fluffed the pillows. 

"Oh yes how clumsy of me, oh interesting my maid noticed the bathroom door being closed and she invites herself into the room" he leaned against the canopy frame with his arms crossed, watching her make the bed.

"Last I knew of you, you were in your study. I had no idea you weren't." she tucked the blankets under the mattress, hotel style.

"Could you not tuck my blankets like that? They are so difficult to get free at night."

"For someone with a lot of magic and power you tend to lose battles to the blankets it seems." she untucked the blankets letting them fall off the bed some, "better?"

"I have magic and power yes but I don't wanna waste it on freeing my covers thank you," he looked over the blankets from where he stood, "yes much better."

She rolled her eyes and walked over to his window and tied the curtains off to the side letting in sunlight or whatever it was in hell. As she did this Lucifer watched her, his red eyes boring into her soul it seemed. She paid him no mind really, she'd been stared at before for a variety of reasons in her life, never by him though, not for long anyway.

"If you keep staring at me like that you're gonna strain your eyes," she murmured as she finished tying the curtains.

"I was watching how you tied, the precision in it was...unique" he stated still leaning against the canopy bed frame.

"The precision..?" she blinked for a moment before chuckling, "I used to live a life of kinky endeavors, don't look too far into it" she smirked and made sure the windows were locked.

"Kinky? I never pegged you for the type."

"I wouldn't expect my boss to worry about my sex life." her smirk grew.

Lucifer merely blinked at her bluntness, "as correct a statement that is, me not caring about your sex life, I just never thought you'd be kinky, I wouldn't even hold it to you to be vanilla."

"So you assumed I just didn't partake in it?"

"Yes, frankly you don't seem interested in anyone."

"That is a correct observation," she stated as she walked to his night stand to declutter it, "however in the past I've had kinky partners in hell, they weren't up to par with lack of experience and such" she took the trash off the night stand and placed it in a trash can.

"That's information I'd rather you didn't share," Lucifer said still watching her from the bed frame.

"Too sensitive a topic for the most sought for bachelor of hell?" she chuckled and threw the trash away in a trashcan under a small desk on the other side of the room.

She looked on the desk and found some envelopes that resembled love letters.

"It's a sensitive topic I'd rather not discuss with my personal staff" he said as he pushed himself off the bed frame and walked over to the desk, looming over it beside her looking at the letters, "ah love letters, I get them daily along with kingdoms within hell practically throwing their daughters at me, some sons too," he picked up one and then sat it back down after observing it.

"No one strikes your fancy then oh mighty devil," she smirked and picked up one of the letters this one not a love letter, it was opened already so she just took the letter out and skimmed it over before Lucifer snatched it out of her hand.

"These are sensitive for your eyes, not something a mere maid should be reading."

"Really? It looked like they mailed you smut."

"Smut?"

"Sexual writing, porn but in literature form," she picked up another one and swiftly opened it, skimming it over, this one was a love letter from some random demon named Tiffany, "Jesus Christ-"

"Don't bring him into this."

"Ha, funny, anyway," she looked down at the letter, "what in the actual hell is this? does she want you to love her, fuck her, marry her or sell her into prostitution?"

"Hmm?" he swiftly grabbed the letter and read it, he was efficient in the matter, "I wish I fucking knew, this girl is something-" 

The two watched a couple naked pictures of who ever this Tiffany was, some blonde with massive breasts, Rome swiftly picked them up turning them to solid ice and shattering them over the trash can.

"Get a P.O. Box"

"I should," Lucifer said before burning the rest of the love letters.
