• Lucifer POV °

I took a deep breath before stepping through the portal to the sky behind them. I knew that once it closed behind us there was no turning back. 

I don't know what they want from us but I know it will be that I will be damn if I let them hurt my family. 

Scarlett is right when she says that I need to learn from my past mistakes and I did two often. I didn't listen fully and I made a lot of impulsive as well as thoughtless moves. 

I will have to stay calm and listen to the end of what they want to tell us without interrupting. I felt my nerves take over me when Al grabbed my hand 

'' Everything will be fine Lu '' he said 

'' I know but it's been years since I've been here '' I said quietly 

'' We're here with you dad '' said the little duck 

'' I know and I'm happy about it '' I replied before we reached the gates of Heaven. 

I could see that the young seraph was waiting for us. I could sense that she did not equal my age but I could feel great strength in her 

'' Emily! '' exclaimed Charlie happily 

'' Charlie Vaggie nice to see you again '' she said with a smile 

'' Your Highness '' she said with a bow 

'' You must be Alastor '' she said with a smile 

'' It's me nice to meet the angel who will stand behind our Charlie '' said Alastor

 '' Nice to meet you '' I said

'' Heavenly Father thought it would be better if I greeted you than Saint Peter or any of the princes. They pay attention to your relationship he knew you would feel most comfortable with me '' she said with a smile 

'' He was right '' I replied reciprocating the smile 

'' Where is Scarlett? '' she asked noticing her absence

'' Scarlett stayed behind to protect the hotel. A few sinners and Overlords don't like Charlie's project. Until they are caught red handed I can't do anything '' I replied 

'' Understood '' she replied with a nod before standing proudly with a smile 

'' Without major delays. I welcome you all to Heaven '' she said as the golden gates opened 

'' Tell Emily what happened to Sera, Adam and Lute ''  asked Vaggie 

'' Sera lost most of her power like and her position as Head Seraph. Now I am settling that position while training another promising angel. In two years he should have a test that will assess his readiness for the position of new seraph '' she began 

'' Congratulations '' said Charlie 

'' Thank you '' she replied 

'' Adam has lost his angelic powers completely. God found out how much Sera let him off the hook with his behavior. Adam is kept in a special cabin where he will be taught under the guidance of several angels to improve his behavior. His father has told him that if he does not improve he will be banished from heaven. It is known that he will not survive a day in Hell '' she continued 

'' Lute along with the rest of the exorcists have been drafted into the angelic army where they are being monitored under the watchful eye of Raphael '' she finished '' Heavenly Father has also placed marks on them stopping them from leaving Heaven without his permission. However, if they tried it would mean final exile or death '' she added after a moment
