In Love With The Devil

Chapter 16

I awoke and sat a bolt, were my dreams real and not actually dream? They couldn't be real...but yet they felt so real. I then noticed light coming from my bedroom window, more than the usual car and headlights. I walked over to my window cautious, remembering what Micheal said about angels being after me. When I look out I saw huge cats , more of lynx than a cat, coming toward my apartment. I was bewildered until I looked more closely at them. They were white and gold, they were also letting off light and sound that sounded like church-bells.

I was scared, so it was real. I slowly started to back away from the window. I back right into something and I felt arms circle me. Before I could even think I screamed, I then heard "easy Valerie, easy." It was Roland... Lucifer, I relaxed against him and said "sorry, it's just I saw these things, then felt arms around me, I panicked." He sighed and whispered "I know, I will keep you safe but I need to ask you something but not here, somewhere safe." I looked up at him and asked "where's safe?" Roland licked his lips and replied "you probably won't like this answer, but hell." I nod, figuring that was the only safe place from those heaven cats, fitting though, hell has hell-hounds- dogs of hell and heaven has cats.

In the blink of an eye we were in hell and a lot seemed to be going on. Demons, spirits, and other creatures were all moving around. They seemed to be preparing for something. Lucifer then turned my head to look at him and said "Valerie I have something very important to ask you, I need you to really think before you respond okay?" I nod, I had no idea what he was going to ask and was kind of fearing his question. He took a deep breath and continued "I know we haven't known each other all that long but I know I love you more than any other, I also know I want you by my side forever but only if you want to be there, I will not force you or try to trick you into it. If you say no I can send you back up there and we will never bother you again."

I didn't know what to say. If I stay I wouldn't see any of my friends or family again, but if I leave I'll never see him again. I know I will never love anyone like I love him but to chose between him and my family, friends, and career. I had questions so I looked at him and asked "will I ever be able to see my family?" Lucifer smiled and replied "yes, occasionally same with your friends, although you will live down here and you won't be able to work up there."I had two more questions, "will I still be able to design and make clothes?" His smile grew and he took my hand and led me down a corridor he pointed to one door and stated "that would be our bedroom." We stood in front of a door across fro what could be our bed room, I blushed at the thought.

He opened the door we were standing in front of and inside was a room full of drawers that had all different kinds of buttons and pins. There were manikins and sewing machines. It was a dream come true for me, there were tables to cut fabric, every color of thread and fabric imaginable. It was all to much, I was ready to say yes but I still had on more question. He seemed to  sense something so he asked "what is it? Is something not right?" I looked around again and answered "everything is perfect. I just have one more question and it's a big one." "What is it?" he asked.
