Lucifer X Reader

Chapter twenty eight - Doubt

Y/n pov

"Naomi!" Castiel growled. The Naomi. Shit. You remembered hearing the name from Castiel telling you of what she had done. Wiping his memory or attempting to control him, attempting to make him to kill Dean.

"Naomi? The same who took information and memories from you?" I ask Castiel but Naomi answered.

"The very same. Now may I ask why two Archangels, the rebel and a pesky human are here?" Pesky human? She didn't know you're an archangel. Probably best to keep it that way.

"Naomi, please, just let us worry about our business." Gabriel pleaded, knowing he was still recovering from Cain.

"Give me the girl." Naomi demanded.

"What?" you laughed hoping you mis-heard.

"You were supposed to die in a fire when you were just a child. You died again and went to hell, come with me and I promise, it'll be okay. Eternal happiness." Naomi said with her hand outstretched.

"Saved from a fire I was supposed to die in ... as a child..." You say aloud looking up at Gabriel and then it clicked. Why he was so afraid of his father getting to you, Chuck had tried this before. You were a manner of creature which was supposed to die young, but Gabriel saved you with the hopes of a better life. So did Chuck killed the only family you ever knew? Your mother...But he said he and Raphael made sure you met the Winchesters. What did Gabriel do? You need to repress that for now, deal with Naomi first.

"No." You say standing your ground.

"Then I'll drag y-" She was cut off by Lucifer grabbing her wrist.

"Y/n is more powerful then you give her credit." He growled. Naomi sensed his weakened grace and his connection to you.

"You love the pathetic human? The powerful Lucifer in love, with a mere human." Lucifer clearly wants to kill her, but for you, he holds his anger. You start laughing hysterically and all eyes are on you.

"Haha, I'm no "mere human" I'm the most powerful Archangel in any dimension. And you hurt my friends... my family." You realise telling her will have consequences but in the moment it doesn't matter. Your iris glow f/c and your wings show. Naomi gasped as you heard her ribs crack, she held her side in pain and fell to the ground as Lucifer let go of her wrist. She looked up at you.

Her eyes glowed white as she attempted to fight down the power, but you were stronger. You sighed and crouched down to her level.

"You're gonna listen very carefully." You tightened you grip. She stopped fighting back and stared at you with a tinge of fear in her eyes.

"You'll let us walk, stay away from my family and keep out of Cas's head and I'll find out if you don't, I swear to you'll I'll hunt you down, and I think you get the picture." You growl with a smirk. You release her and stand. Your eyes stopped glowing and your wings disappeared.

"Why did you spare my life?"

"As much as I hate you... There is no need for more death." You say kindly offering her a hand up.

"You're not what I expected for the "Hidden archangel" That thrashed Michael around. Much more merciful." She said taking your hand and picking herself up.

"You've heard?" You asked.

"Yes, Michael sent out a call to a few as you had him in your grasp, but God seemed to have interfered so no one in the bunker could hear him. You must've scared him for him to reach out of something as strong as the cage." You looked away in regret.

"What did you mean, more merciful?" You questioned her noticing that.

"We suspected that you killed him, based on your attitude to an angel like me and that traitor- I mean... Castiel, I suspect you didn't." Naomi says keeping her eyes on your movement.

"So, what if I didn't kill him." You state.

"Why?" You look her confused.

"He's your lover is his enemy." She continues on.

"He is also his brother." You tell her. She looks as if she wants you to continue.

"Naomi, this world is suffering, and like humans, you angels are more flawed then you know. But that doesn't define you. Its when you rise with these flaws, help those you think less of you, you can be equal. Humans are beautiful, they love and care, create and watch each other grow, they are determined creatures, they have hope, it is not always fair on them. But for those few that are horrible, there are billions who are kind souls. You see, like you, greed gets to them and infects them like a virus. Angels, Demons, Humans... Archangels. We all are alike. But when you use your power to control, manipulate and hurt others, you are the scum of the world." You explain in passion not noticing Cas, Lucifer and Gabriel's proud and surprised expressions. Naomi looks at you weirdly.

"I can feel something from that, something I'm... not used to." She states. You see the defiance in her eyes grow along with the idea of learning or observing humans.

"As a wise friend said before me, it's called doubt. Naomi, I think this doubt of yours, it directed to everything you've done and thought throughout the years. Maybe heaven could do for a reboot." Castiel said stepping beside you. Naomi looked at him more gently then she's looked at anyone before.

"I-I Have to think about a few things. Be on your way." With that Naomi took a sharp turn and walked off into another white hallway.

"Wow." Lucifer whispered.

"Wow what?" You ask him with a hand on your hip.

"You." You give Lucifer a question look.

"You're stunning. How did I get this lucky with a soulmate? I know people say 'opposites attract.' I didn't know it'd be like this." He stated pulling you close to him, you could feel his breath on yours.

"We might not be so different Lucifer." You say his name with a tinge of flirt to see that lust in his eyes grow. It does. You smirk and step away from him feeling his glare, but not looking.

"Gabriel, want to stop smirking and lead the way?" You ask Gabriel. He smiles and elbows him brother bringing him back to the real world before leading the way through more of these white halls.

(Hey, so I'm feeling better and I think I've got my grove back or most of it at least. I hope you enjoyed this one, it was fun to write. I wish you all the best good day/ night.)
