I didn't even bother to look for Sebastian the following day for I knew he would be gone. I don't know why I didn't ask him where he kept going or order him to stop leaving. But I figured I was making his life hell enough and that maybe this was his way to escape.

But what about me? Where was my escape? Perhaps its in all these books....I thought, looking around me at the shelves filled with reading material. I had taken shelter in the library to try and ease my loneliness.

I don't know why I care so much about Sebastian leaving me. I hate that demon. But do I really? A small sigh escaped my lips. Hell was so boring and lonely. And my new found depression from Sebastian's absence wasn't helping anything.

Every day I would try and imagine what Sebastian was doing without me. Maybe he went to some demon bar. Or maybe he's out pillaging villages on earth and stealing peoples souls.

Or maybe...he was with a woman. It wasn't hard to believe. Sebastian was a very handsome, intelligent and all around perfect man. He could undoubtedly have anyone he wanted.

Women had already swooned for him back in London. But the thought of Sebastian with some random demon lady irked me.

I remembered all those times Sebastian had slept with other women just to get information. It had anger and rage flowing through me as well as sadness and betrayal.

But I was completely confused to why I was feeling this way. Maybe I'm...I shook my head as it began to ache, dismissing the thought and for getting what I was thinking about. Shrugging, I picked up my book and began to read.

I had one final object to find. I needed blood as black as night. Where the fuck am I gonna find that?! Groaning, I aimlessly walking around the depths of hell.

Sighing heavily, I decided to pay a visit back to Satan. "Saaaaataaaannnn," I whined. The higher demon rolled his eyes. "Need more tears, asshole?" He asked sarcastically.

"No. I actually need some information." The elder sat up straight in his chair, motioning me to continue. "Where can I find black blood?" I asked.

Satan thought for a moment. "Well, a demons blood usually turns black from loneliness and pain a loved one has caused," he explained. Well that's coincidental. I'm a demon who's lonely and in pain from a loved one.

"Alright. Thank you grandfather," I said, smiling softly. I bowed in respect before exiting the palace. I walked to an empty forest, sitting on a rock and taking out a knife and jar. Sighing softly, I slowly and deeply slit my wrist, watching as black blood oozed out of the wound.

I watched as it dripped into the jar, filling it slowly. Finally. I will be reunited with you, my love. This blood will no longer be black when this deed is done. I will return your true self to me and we can finally live happily ever after...
