The Darkness Inside Of Her

Better Hide It Now

"Zara, you are to bear my child whether you wish to or not. I will not have to force you now, but I could eventually."

"I am the devil," he glanced at me.

"Right." I say.

I could see Lucifer staring at me. He looked so peaceful right then. Time almosted stopped until I shook my head away from any thought of him.

"Really Lucifer? Why the hell do you want to knock someone up so bad? Why do you want to have a child? I don't know why you want it to be from my womb...."

"Zara... Oh Zara I wish you knew.."

"Knew what?" I calm down. There is a reason.

"Please tell me what it is.."

"I can't Zara. I am sorry. I never can."

"Bu-"

"God damnit Zara I said I CAN'T!"

I would have fought for years, but before I could we were interrupted by a loud sound.

"My Lucifer! Where is my darling Lucifer?"
The voice came from behind me, almost too preppy.

It was a womans. Young sounding and beautiful. I turned to see Lucifer. His face was the total opposite of calm. He looked angry.

     His eyes showed betrayal, but then switched to an emotion I could not read when he noticed the lady when I looked. The lady behind me was beautiful with red curly hair that I swore burst into flames. The fire seemed to burn me, as she glared. Then, she turned her attention to the shaken man behind me.

I crossed my arms. Is it hard to hear a conversation? I wasn't one for being interrupted.

She lit up.

"My darling Lucifer!" She yelped, jumping into his warm embrace.

"Penelope! You are back? I missed you so much. I thought you would never come back." He said, his voice cracking with happiness.

What the hell? I should just go this is idiotic. Since the horn devil would be too entranced to notice I was gone anyways. I slipped out unnoticed. Right before I left, I decided to peek my head once more. What is this?

"Oh Lucifer! How I missed you my love! Who was that wretched girl in here with you? She was very funny looking. Don't tell me you were gonna replace me with that thing? Or were you?"

"Oh Penelope, I could never replace you." He said, holding her.

I know it wasn't my business, I should not care.

This still hurt me. I had actually started to think he felt for me. Is this woman the reason why he wanted me to bear his heir? I guess If that was to be true, I would know eventually. She don't look big enough to hide a bun inside of the oven.

Instead of worrying, I head into my room and lay down. Is this how my time will be spent for eternity. Would I stay here until he chooses for me to burn with the others? At least I could speak to Mr. Burning Steve and crack some jokes. It's better than watching a live adult film forever. Soon, I find myself falling asleep. Even sleeping was useless, but it served a good time waste.
