Chapter 3:
Who is Lucifer Bane

Lucifer had taken Reese everywhere she asked. After getting her clothes from behind the bush two blocks away from Landon's house, he took her out to get Chinese food. They sat in the clinic chomping on egg rolls and sipping coke while a nurse wrapped Reese's ankle.

"I hope it doesn't hurt too much. I wouldn't want to carry you to the car. But I would." Lucifer joked, helping Reese to her feet. The nurse had also cleaned the tiny cuts on her hands too.

As they passed the front door, the two tossed the  trash away and headed back into the cold night. "So, where exactly do I drop you off, Ms. Evening?"

"I don't really have a place to stay now."

Lucifer opened the passenger door to his silver Mercedes. "You mean to tell me, you lived with that guy?"

Reese nodded, shivering as a sudden wave of chills rushed up her spine. "I use to think he was an awesome guy. Then, he started to get violent. And I wanted to leave, believe me... I was just saving up enough money to do that."

"Do you not have family?" Lucifer asked, leaning against the door.

"No. My parents died the night of my graduation and I don't talk to my brothers."

Lucifer didn't reply to her this time. Instead, he closes the door and rounded the car, sliding into the driver's seat. "We'll figure something out. I'm sure you'll be fine." But Reese took his words differently than he intended.

What Lucifer meant, Reese didn't think. She thought he was going to abandon her somewhere. But what he was planning to do was take her to his place and let her stay there for a while.

Two hours later, Reese and Lucifer stopped outside of a beach house in Fort Peters. In the passenger seat, Reese was sleeping, silently snoring away while Lucifer picked her up. Pulling the keys from his pockets, he unlocked the door, leaving it open to carry Reese up the stairs and into his guest room.

He laid the sleeping, injured girl on the soft comforts of pillows and a blanket large enough to cover her from head to toe. She unconsciously snuggled even deeper in the pile, they gave her comfort she hadn't felt in a long time.

A soft sigh left her lips. Lucifer didn't stay long before entering his own room. Only a pair of boxers covering his privates. Nothing but the rustling of leaves outside were heard as he soon fell in the depths of oblivion.

The first thing Reese heard was a blender being used. The sizzling of bacon, the popping of oil, had her confirm someone was up and cooking at such an early time.

Reese rubbed the pad of her thumb underneath her eyes to remove the sleepiness in them. She was soon sitting up on the unfamiliar bed.

She became aware of her surroundings, nothing in the room reminding her of the dreaded place she usually slept in.

She was quick to get off the bed and stand on her injured ankle.

"HOLY SHIT!" She crumpled back against the mattress. Her ankle throbbed with pain, a bad move on her part.
