The Lightbringer

Chapter 3: Angelsitter

Chloe entered the station quitely. " Hey Dan. Anythink to report?". Dan looked up from Lucifer's letter with a simple smile. " Hey Chlo. Yes, Lucifer spoke with Lieutenant Rick and left something on your desk. The poor guy looked stressed". Chloe smiled at him and went nervously to her desk.

She found a red rose at the corner of her desk. As she picked it. It smelled of scotch whisky. His favorite drink of choice. Her eyes fell on the empty chair beside her desk. A chair that should have an occupation. A tall, dark haired, annoying occupation.

Chloe was lost in thought as she remembered Lucifer eating chips and dipping them in chocolate or the time he up his feet up on her desk. Her attention was brought back when Ella placed a file on her desk, " Hey Chloe. What's wrong?". Chloe smiled, " Nothing. Are you going on a trip?". Ella nodded, " I'm going to London for a few months. Rick will have someone cover me while I'm gone. In those file you will find the place where I will be staying and a phone number.". Ella gave her a hug and left. Chloe sat down again and looked at the photo on the right of her computer. It was a picture of her and Lucifer sitting on top of their detective car. She remembered when that picture was taken. It was their first year anniversary working together. She grabbed the photo and went to her car. As she entered her car she looked to the empty seat beside here with sadness, " How could I pull my gun on my own partner? I'm sorry Lucifer. I'm very sorry". She touched the seat and a tear fell.

She entered Dr. Linda's office to talk about this new realization but as she entered the door she saw Azrael with her wings. Chloe backed away a bit until Linda told her to sit down. " Azrael you are an angel". Azrael nodded and she grabbed the detective's hands. " Fear me not Chloe. I am the angel of death. My brother might be the devil in the flesh but he is not that bad". Chloe looked from Azreal to Linda. " She is right Chloe. Lucifer is kind hearted and he is a good man... Azrael!". Linda shouted as Azazel smelled a metal container. The detective extended her hand and took the container away. " I might have took my brother's flask without permission and I might have tasted a little". The detective shook her head in disbelief that Azrael would do such a thing. She rubbed her fingers against the flask with care and sorrow. Then a knock was soon heard at the door and Ella entered the room. " Hey everyone. Lucifer is going crazy looking for his flask. He is literally taking LUX apart ". Chloe looked at Azrael with a grin, " Azrael give this back to your brother. Without it, he will completely explode". Chloe handed Azrael the silver flask. She took it and went back to the penthouse with Ella. Chloe sniffed softly as they left with the flask. The only thing that made her feel close to him. Linda noticed her sadness as the flask was taken away and told her to embrace her emotions. To put her walls down and cry it out.

As the elevator to the Penthouse opened. Azrael and Ella could see that Lucifer had turned the place upside down looking for his flask. As he heard footsteps in his living room. He turned to Ella, " Ms.Lopez great you brought Azrael". Ella smiles at him shows him his flask, " I also found this. Azrael took it". Lucifer takes his flask and takes a sip from it before turning to his sister. Azrael looked at her older brother with fear as he looked at her angrily. He looked down at little Azrael, " Azrael Morningstar. Taking thinking is not acceptable of a good angel. You also know that no one steals from the devil. So I will have to punish you. No Whisky for a year". She knew that there was no point in protesting because her brother would not go back on his word. She instead took the flask from her brother and started to fill it up with his favorite scotch whisky. He was happy with her peace offering and accepted it. Just because he accepted it. Does not mean that all would be forgiven. Azrael still had to face her punishment with no questions asked.

Lucifer hugged his little sister, "Sois bon pour Ella Azrael. Je serai de retour dans trois jours". Azrael hugged him tightly, "Je vais Lu. Prends soin de toi et reviens. S'il vous plaît". Ella's heart warmed as she observed them. " awwww you guys are so cute. Even though I didn't understand a word you said". Lucifer smiled and hugged her too. He whispered in her ear, "Prends soin d'elle. It's French. It means take care of her". Ella was shocked that he knew French but assured him that she would take care of Azrael. With that said he left with Maze to the airport.

During the time they spent together. Azrael catched up on her studies with learning other languages but also found the time to cook with Ella. But Ella soon came to realize that another woman was in Lucifer's life. The women was not very tall with beautiful light brown hair. " Who is that?", Ella asked with a worried expression on her face. Azrael turned, " Oh that's Lupita. My brother's housekeeper. She came to work her a few months ago after her family kicked her out because she's pregnant". Ella smiled at her, " How many months?". Lupita placed her hands on her belly, " 9 months. The baby should be born any day now. Even though Lucifer told me to rest. I refuse because I want to help". Ella smiled and allowed Lupita to help. Lupita told Ella her story. That she was kicked out of her home when her parents found out that she was pregnant and at the age of 24, that's frowned upon in her family. She wandered the streets for a few days until she was found by Lucifer outside of his club in the rain. He took her in and gave her a job regardless of her sistation but most of all he gave her a home and protection.
