"Rosie, please calm down. It'll be ok, I promise we'll find him." Harry tried to sooth my nerves but only made my anger rise.

"How can you say that, Harry? He's gone. Our son was taken by the devil himself!" He looked a bit taken aback by my outburst. "And let me tell you something else, Styles. I am not going to calm down. I'm going to find my son. Now. Come if you want, I don't care."

I pushed past him, blood boiling and all. Harry called after me, running to catch up.

"Don't come between a mom and her kid, mate." Liam mused with and arm around Niall who was happily munching on a cookie. "Slow down, baby. You're going to get sick."

He looked up at Liam with a pout before nodding and took slower bites, chewing them instead of instantly swallowing.

I sighed when Harry grabbed my arm, spinning my whole body around so I was forced to face him.

"Princess, I love you, you know that. And I love Edward, I want to beat Luci to a pulp for even touching him. But we can't just rush into this. We need a plan. The devil is deciving and...although I hate to admit it, smarter than us. He wants you to come and confront him alone. He could easily kill you, and as he knows, that would make it easier to kill me."

My eyes widened as I stared back at Harry. My head tilted slightly, eyes narrowing.

"How do you know all of this?"

He thought for a moment before shrugging lamely. It was just know that I noticed Zayn and Louis had entered the room.

"I lived with him as a cat for nitey nine years. You get to know someone after a while when you're trapped in the same house as them."

"Harry's right...he knows Lucifer really well, much better than me. You know how he thinks, and I know the things he may plan to do. If we work together, perhaps we can guess what he's going to do next." Zayn proposed, making Harry's face scrunch up in disgust.

"I would never work with you. I don't know if you haven't noticed yet, but I still don't trust you."

"Harry!" I gasped, making his face drop in guilt. "If there is anything that you can do to get Edward back, you are going to do it. Understand?"

He nodded sheepishly, making me sigh. I leaned over, kissing his cheek before smiling.

"Thank you."

He rolled his eyes playfully. "I'm only doing it 'cause I love you...and to get Eddie back. In any other case, I wouldn't let you even anywhere near this house, Malik."

Zayn shoved his hands in his pocket with a small smirk. He then shrugged his shoulders.

"I guess it's a good thing that she wears the pants in the relationship, then."

I laughed at his words, making a face at Harry. His eyes grew darker as he gripped my waist harder, leaning down to whisper in my ear.

"You're going to pay for that, princess."

My eyes went wide as he chuckled to himself. Zayn looked at him with furrowed eyebrows, clearly confused.

"Ew, Harry!" Liam yelled suddenly, covering his face with his hands.

"Hey, you're the one that read my mind."

"Its not my fault you think so damn loud!"

Niall was giggling at Liam because of his noticible uncomfortness. He suddenly looked up at Niall with a serious expression.
