Love Thy Murderer (ON HOLD)

Chapter 2

"I see fire" by Ed Sheeran

I sat shivering on the ground from the cold air and the sheet is doing nothing to keep my naked body warm. I sniffled wiping the tears from my cheeks and listened to Lucifer's breathing.

Out of nowhere he banged on the door with a yell. "Fuck, Kaitlyn!" He growled in anger. I jumped in fright, inching away from the door just in case it broke if he was to bang on it again. He shuffled around before I could hear his footsteps walking away from the door.

Soon enough I could hear hangers being moved in the closet. I stayed silent on the floor calming myself before I stood up wrapping the sheet tightly around my body. With a hesitant step, I stepped towards the door grabbing the doorknob.

I slowly opened the door and walked out of the bathroom to Lucifer pulling on his old pair of black boots I had kept. Lucifer is now dressed in a pair of dark jeans, a long sleeve shirt, and his boots. I walked to the bed where I sat down with my head down trying to refuse eye contact.

He walked to the bathroom slamming the door shut. A few second later, I could hear him brushing his teeth. I stayed in my spot listening to the chirping of the birds from outside. When Lucifer came out of the bathroom, I still stayed in my spot.

"I'm leaving." Lucifer said stopping in front of me. "I'll be back later." He said with a sigh. I looked up at him and he looked like he wanted to say something before deciding against it. I watched him stalk out of my bedroom then I heard my front door slam close.

I let out a loud sigh then glanced at my clock seeing that I have an hour and a half to get to work. So I got up and got ready for work. After a long shower of scrubbing Lucifer's scent off of my skin, I dressed myself in a white knee length business dress with a pair of black pumps. I pulled my hair up into a tight neat ponytail and dabbed on a little bit of peach lip-gloss.

I parked my car into my reserved parking spot and got out. I've been working in this company for nearly six years now as an interior designer. "Hey, Babes." I hear someone say as I walk towards my very own office.

I smiled turning towards the voice. My friend of four years smiled at me. Daniella walked to me in her slacks and blouse. Her long brown hair brushes her shoulders. Anyone who looked at her would never guess that she's a man.

"Hey, Daniella." I said hugging her then looked up into her brown eyes. She stopped smiling and frowned. "What's wrong? I can tell something is going on." She whispered softly. I looked away from her then walked to my office pulling her behind me.

"Hello, Ms. Bell." My assistant said with a smile. "Hi, Crystal. Do I have anything going on today?" I ask her. She looked down at her IPAD. "You have nothing going on after the Rogers come by which will be in an hour." She said.

I gave her a nod and walked into my medium sized office. Every interior designer in the building has their own office and assistant. "Tell Dani what's wrong?" She said sitting on the two seater couch I have in my office. I sat down next to her and sighed.

"Promise me you won't be mad at me." I said looking up at her and she tilted her head to the side. "I don't know if I can keep that promise. You know I get crazy in the head when I'm upset, but I promise to try to not get mad at you." She said "Good enough." I thought before taking a deep breath knowing how this is going to end.

"Lucifer's out.....and he's been coming over to see Luther every day." I said then watched her left eye twitch ad stop before she took her own deep breath. She put on a smile that I know is hundred percent fake.
