The Devil ✅

25- Rumors

I was walking through the big and never stopping hallways to get to the kitchen. Many demons were around me but never too close to me. And can i say that i was supposed to wear queen gowns outside the room so it was more believable? Well i do, and i am not a big fan of it, but after the weeks passed i grew more attached to this dresses. I found an open door and it looked like it was the kitchen.

"Good morning, my queen." one of the servants said, i smiled genuinely at her and tried to stay as far as possible. We don't want more trouble than what we already have.

"Here's your food ma'am." another woman said, i thanked her and grabbed my tray. I turned around and was about to leave when someone grabbed my hand and pulled me into a small place.

I looked towards the person and noticed that she is a girl. I tried to smile and hide how trully nervous and scared i was.

"Hey!" she said in a happy tone.

"Hey." i said happily as real as i could.

"Am sorry i scared you, i just always wanted to talk to the queen but Lucifer won't let me and i just wanted to have a friend so i thought maybe you could be." she said and i smiled and chuckled a bit at how fast she talked.

"Of course you can be my friend, but promise that secrets stay secrets no matter what, not that i have any but. If i do, no say." i said and she smiled, she hugged me and squealed into the hug, i hugged her back.

"Thank you!" she said happily as she broke the hug.

"Okay c'mon let's go in my room." i said, i know Lucifer said to not talk to any demon but this girl seems more of an angel to me than a demon, and i know that from the bible that most kids are born with complete unluck because of their parents mistakes, so she might be a really nice person, but because of her parents mistakes she is now a demon.

"Wait, really?" she asked excited, i nodded before i chuckled and grabbed her arm.

I took her with me and we went inside the room.

Her mouth formed an 'o' shape and it was kinda funny actually watching her like this.

"This room is huge." she said in amazement.

"Don't you all have rooms like this?" i asked wondering.

"Just a little smaller than this. This room it's mostly for the king and queen, the reason there are two room for them is if the queen it'z pregnant they use the second one for a nursery." she finished and i nodded, and what she said made me wonder, two thousand years in this world, how does Lucifer not have atleast one kid?

It was probably because of the curse. I might have to ask about that.

"Did Lucifer ever have a child before?" i asked her. She looked a bit confused at first but then she hid it.

"He actually did, he had a lot of them, with many girls-" she stopped talking and i motioned for her to continue but she seemed a little scared to continue. "But he would kill the babies from a very young age, or torture them." she said and my eyes widened, how could he-- no it wasn't him, it can't be but Cole can be.

"Oh okay then." i whispered more to myself.

I heard someone's footsteps outside the door and i knew what would come next. Lucifer barged in angry.

"Why is a demon in the room!" he said furious, how did he know?

"She is a friend." i said and i walked beside her. I don't know which side of him is here now so i better be careful.

"Get out. NOW!" he yelled at her and she hurried outside.

"What is wrong with you?!" i half yelled. He was taken aback from my sudden behavior.

"Nova what is it? You've been acting weird." he said to me and i looked down at my toes, Lucifer is right i've been acting weird and i don't even know why.

"A-am sorry for yelling at you, i-ts just i don't know what's gotten in me." i stuttered, Maybe hell was causing all of this maybe this is a side reaction.

"Don't worry Nova, i'll be dying soon, but i'll make sure i let you go before the really bad things start to happen, i just want you here for a little longer." he whispered softly, i looked at him, my eyes already filled with tears.

"No Lucy i am not letting you die, even if you don't accept me helping you, i wont leave without knowing i helped even a little." i said to him, he shook his head, and i knew what was coming next, the same things he said to me months before.

"I told you, you already helped enough." he finished. "And if you want to make friends be careful please." he said holding my arms and squeezing them softly.

I nodded and gave him a small smile, i looked him straight in the eyes, a very white light reflecting inside his eyes, it was like something was behind me. I looked behind me and then back at him seeing that there was nothing behind me.

He looked shocked but then again hid it.

I'll let this part go for now. Maybe i shouldn't ask too many questions.

"I better go." he said and i nodded, he softly let his hands fall to his side and then he left. Leaving me once more alone inside the dark room.

It was already dark outside and i needed to take a nap until tomorrow.
