Saved By The Devil - BOOK 1 ✔ (Edited)

Chapter 42 (Edited)

He walked around the counter and looked around for what he wanted. The room started spinning again so I placed my head down on the counter and stared at the floor. I heard some bottles open and then poured on top of the ice. I sat up to see Scotty smiling as he poured strawberry rum into his cup with some ice.

He closed the bottle and placed it back. "Cheers," he said while holding up his cup. I gave a smile in return and he passed me the cup that was next to me. I gave him a look that I didn't want my drink but he ignored it. I rolled my eyes and picked up my cup. It felt a bit heavier than I remembered but I brushed it off since it was my powers messing with me.

"Drink it all. If you do I'll leave," he smiled and I nodded in agreement.

"3,2,1, go," he counted down before chugging down his drink.

I lifted my cup and started chugging. After 4 huge gulps, I finished and placed my cup down. I watched as a smirk rose on Scotty's face. The aftertaste of Henny and Monster hit me strongly but it tasted different. It tasted like ...

"Strawberries," I mumbled out loud and my eyes widened in realization.

I looked at Scotty to see a huge smirk on his face. "You asshole," I mumbled as I got off the stool. I felt myself falling but someone helped me up. "You did this on purpose," I yelled trying to push him away from me but it did nothing. "You knew I was buzzed this whole time."

"Don't fight it, baby girl," he mumbled and sat me back on the stool.

I leaned back and looked at him. He was inches away from my face and I tried to move him back but he stood there like a rock. He grabbed my hand and held it down on my lap.

"Hear me out," he begged.

"No. This is assault," I yelled but it came out in a soft voice.

"I want our gangs to work together. On any missions, my gang gets 60 percent since we are huge and your gang will get 40 percent," he offered.

"What?! NO!" I shrieked in disbelief. The fucking audacity of this cunt was unreal.

"Skylar -"

"No, you can't just come in my house, get me more drunk and hold me down against my own will. That's -"

I felt something warm and soft against my lips. Scotty had crashed his lips against me. I tried to push him away but he pulled me closer. The harder I shoved the more he pulled me closer. I used all my energy to kick him in the dick. I watched as he fell to the ground cursing. I slid off the chair and tried to run to the backyard.

"James," I tried to yell but it came out soft. I was then slammed across the wall and then pinned. Scotty's face was tensed up and I knew he was now mad at me. I felt a sting across my face. He had slapped me. "You will respect me," he growled.

One thing Scotty had always failed to do was pay attention to his surroundings. He was too full of anger to realize what was coming next. I need him again. I got out of his grasp and stumbled down the hall. I felt my knees giving in and I dropped to the floor. I turned around to see Scotty getting up and walking towards me.

"Lucifer!" I screamed but it also came out soft. Tears rolled down my cheeks as Scotty got closer. Within a blink of an eye, a body appeared in front of me. I knew it was Lucifer. Scotty looked at him as if he just saw a ghost. Lucifer turned around and looked down at me in shock. He picked me up bridal style and placed me on the nearest couch that was in the hall.

"What did he do?" Lucifer asked calmly as he wiped the tears from my face.

I shook my head and a sob came out. "Sky," he called.

"He poured rum into my drink without me knowing and made me chug even though he knew I was buzzed," I sobbed.

"What else?" he asked, turning my chin.

"He forced me to kiss him," I sobbed some more.

Lucifer's emotion changed and I knew he was mad. He brushed the hair out of my face and his eyes widened.

"He hit you," he growled and his eyes were now black and I nodded. He turned around and walked toward Scotty who seemed to be frozen in place.

"You can't kill him," I tried to speak out but it came out with a cracked voice. If Scotty died, this would cause a war to break out between his gang, my gang, and the organization.

"I'm not going to kill him. That would be too easy," Lucifer growled. Scotty turned to run but Lucifer flashed in front of him and held him by the throat before flashing out. After half a minute or so they flashed back and Scotty was screaming.

Lucifer threw him to the floor and Scotty took the chance to run out. He walked towards me and wrapped me in a hug. "I'm sorry I've been ignoring you. I thought it would be easier if I just didn't hang around you and it'll be easier when I leave," he explained with a sad tone.

"That just makes it harder," I sobbed in his chest. "Yes, I see that now," he whispered and rubbed my back in circular motions.

I stopped sobbing and looked up at him. "Where did you take him?" I asked, referring to Scotty screaming.

He stared at me for a moment then cracked a smile. "Let's just say, he might start going to church every day," he laughed then pulled me into his chest.

My eyes widened as I realized where Lucifer took him. "I love you, my Princess," he mumbled in my hair and planted a kiss on my head.

"I love you too," I sighed into his chest.
