Reconcile

## Lucifer's POV

I lay on something soft, a strange crunch under my back making me stir. Opening my eyes, I see a blur of faces: Charlie, Dad, my brothers, their partners, Raphael, Michael, and their partners, too.

"Dad," I croak, my voice hoarse. "What's going on?"

"Well, while you were on your trip," Michael starts, "a crazy demon started a riot. Battle happened, blood everywhere. Alastor... he's still not healing. We tried our blood."

"Alastor... the babies?" I ask, a knot of fear tightening in my chest.

"They're in your old room," Michael says.

"Charlie, I know you were freaked out, but I need to check on them," I say, pushing myself up.

"It was so bloody," Charlie says, her voice trembling. "The sinners were so violent, not the normal sinner violent." If I'm right, I'm going to be in trouble with the other sins, but that's another day. I need to check on my kids and husband.

It feels like an eternity before I reach the bedroom. Slowly, I open the door. The babies are asleep in Dad and Mom's arms.

"He hasn't woken up. Or healed," Dad says, his voice heavy with worry.

I lay beside Alastor, gently touching his wounds.

"Mh," he moans in pain. I bite my wrist, hoping my blood will help.

I press my wrist to his mouth. He sniffs weakly, then grabs my arm, pulling me closer. He drinks, his eyes flickering open as he does.

"Soulmates," Dad says. "No other person can heal him but you." A golden light surrounds Alastor, and he sits up, looking at me.

"I'm sorry," I start, but Alastor cuts me off, grabbing my hand.

"You carried three babies, delivered them, fed them for two months. I know weed helps with your anxiety, but let's not overdo it. You're my fucked up little hen, and nothing could ruin that. Your family helped," Alastor says, his voice gruff but filled with gratitude. A few tears escape my eyes. I hug him, burying my face in his coat. Heaven.

"Look, I told Michael to send you, Charlie, and our babies here. Trust me, I don't belong here either. I wanted you to be safe. And Charlie and Vaggie are engaged, Husk and Nifty are together, and Angel is stuck at the gate, not dead. I had your brothers send them here," Alastor says.

"Dad," I say, my voice choked with emotion.

"On it," Dad replies, disappearing and reappearing almost instantly. "They're with Charlie, and Nifty is unarmed."

I feel the fall again, the pain flooding back. "I need to go back to Hell," I say, my voice cracking.

"Hell is fine. Eve is looking after it," Mom says, her voice calm and reassuring. My body shakes my mind is clear, what happened. 

" you are emotialy stable your depression gone; you broke your curse. " Dad said.

" I'm sane. " I said.  

**Alastor POV**

He has different wings, a blue base with red spots on them. He smiled a genuine, happy smile but had the look. "Dad, take them out," he said. God and Mother Nature left. He locked the door and pounced on me. "You are my love," he said, kissing down my chest.

"What about both of us wanting to?" I asked.

"Sorry, I just got carried away. You bring out my old self," he said. I sat beside him. "I like it; I just don't always want to go all the way, but your kisses send electricity all over," I said.
