To Win The Devil's Heart

♦️Chapter 11♦️

◇Lucifer POV◇

"With Zeon's forces getting closer go our main line of defence we must be ready to attack. Our navy holds at the blood moon lagoon where it's impossible to hide from and is their only way to enter by water" I listen in closely to Axel as he informs me and the council of Zeon's next moves.

After our touching moment, Salem went to pack for his leave I'm a couple of days. However I might be sending him off early if Zeon gets closer.

"Our forces are equipped with many weapons blessed by hell fire as well as toxins too. Thank me later. However word has it that the the dumb bitch Samantha has joined forces with Zeon and will be joining the battle." Ah yes Samantha. That dumb pillock was always in love with my dumb brother and now she joins him to take my Salem's title away from him.

"We Salem pregnant we must protect him, so he'll be sent away"

"Where exactly?" An old hag decides to chirp in. Not in my watch.

"None of your concern. He will be safe from harm."

"Or he's just a coward. A little bitch hiding away from the battlefield. I bet his pregnancy was a lie and so was his lov-" the poor man doesn't finish his sentence as I rip out of throat, blood pours out and the old pig tries to stop the blood but it doesn't help. His lifeless corpse is lit on fire as I burn his soul for good.

That seem to capture everyone's attention. A mix of fear, admiration and respect linger on all their faces.

"Now if you say anything against my dove, I cab assure you that death will be certain and let that man be of example to you all." I wipe my hands and sit back down, relaxing my breathing.

"Continue." I gesture to Axel in which he nods and contuines informing us on who Zeon has recruited.

Vampires and rouge wolves have joined. Some witches and orcs too but all can be destroyed easily. The meeting finishes and everyone is dismissed.

I steady myself and sit back in my office chair soaking in the silence. It's the only time they'll ever be silence.

Thinking back to when me and my brother where just children in Hell. Ahhh the good old days where we killed every living thing without a care in the world. But jealously is a funny thing. As I grew stronger, Zeon envied it and did anything to belittle me but I made sure to always put him on shutdown.

I offered him to rule alongside me but nope. He said he'd rather die then join hands with his dear brother. So death is what shall come.

My door opens showing Axel alongside Captain Wyatt something. I don't pay attention to names.

"Your majesty it's a great honour to be here in your presence, let me be the fir-"

"Is you ship ready to take Salem away?" I don't care about complaints, makes you sound like a kiss ass.

"Yes your grace a couple more hours till midnight and it shall be ready go set sail."

"Good." I wave my hand to shoo him away but he clearly wants more.

"What?"

"Well I want to know my payment for carry out this task." Of course can't have everything for free.

"You owe me a very big debt from when YOU tried to take control of my navy and what did I do? Spare you for your loyalty in which I will have unless you want would burnt alive. Do you?" The man shakes no and mutters something under his but I dismiss him anyways.

"And you?" I turn my attention to Axel who's been a good friend to me over there past weeks.

"Are you ready for battle? I mean when was the last time you picked up a sword let alone used it?" It hasn't been that long. We just don't get many wars.
