Chapter 32 | Plans, pants and protection

Chapter 32 | Plans, pants, and protection. 

I awoke startled. Jolting awake to find myself in the safety of our bed. Slowly I noticed the blinds were wide open and outside was dark.

"What the fuck were you thinking?" Grumbled Lucas.

I tilted my head over to where he sat, he sat on a chair beside the bed his face looking pale and exhausted. I wasn't in the mood for his bitching. I slowly got out of bed.

"Easy, love you were out for hours," he said softly reaching to help me.

I slapped his hand away, standing steadily on my feet. I was done playing games, I was done with Daniel. I tried and I failed. He was a monster just like our father and I would not let him hurt my future. No one would dare hurt my fucking child.

"Cloud, your glory," Lucas muttered leaning away from me.

My eyes flickered to his hands that were just touching me. They were burned and I felt guilt dig through me.

"I'm sorry," I spoke softly.

He sighed, pulling me into his chest. I cried out when I could feel my glory continue to burn him and I took a deep breathe to calm down. Abaddon would be so disappointed in me if I didn't get my shit together.

"Lucas, you need to let me make my decisions and you need to trust me," I pulled away to look at him.

His eyes widened then casted down to the floor.

"I do, I'm sorry I just I don't want anything to happen to you or our baby," he breathed.

I smiled.

My fingers tilted his face up, "I love you. Let me be queen and you, one day you'll be king. Show the people what they're getting."

Then I let go and made my way to the closet. None of these would do, I'd need Abaddon to get me some angel gear. For now, I pulled on a mesh silver gown. It was heart shaped at the top, and down to the floor with a slit up the side.

"Where are you going?" Lucas asked catching my arm.

"Lucifer. Daniel said he was going to rip our child from my stomach and crush it into the ground. He said he'd be here at our home to destroy everything in a month's time."

His eyes widened, then they turned fully gold with an anger I've never seen before. A dark power crackled around him, the closet was demolished around us. I covered my face with my arm until he pulled his anger in.

"I will order my father be here in the next few hours, as well as the Alphas, Elizabeth, Elliot and Kit. Get ready my queen, we will not allow this pitiful monster to lay a hand on our child," he ordered becoming the man I had first met.

I nodded welcoming the sudden change. Knowing I'd always love his soft side but right now we needed the sadistic prince of hell. He pressed his lips to my forehead before leaving the closet. I stayed where I was for a few minutes knowing once I left the destructed closet I would not have any peace for the next month. Not until Daniel was dead.

"Cloud, Sir Lucifer sent me to stay by your side as your personal guard and advisor until further instructed," Kit appeared in a cloud of blue smoke.

I smiled knowing Kit would always be at my side when I needed her. I turned to leave the room when my foot caught on something. Something survived Lucifer's anger? I bent down and moved the ash of clothing away. What stared back at me was the very "training" pants Abaddon had given me.
