Lucius' pov:

It was a Saturday morning again. I grunted and got up since I got a hangover from drinking too much last night. I yawned as I walked to my bathroom and took a shower. It was already winter so it's really cold outside.

I turned on the heater and showered. It's already Christmas season so people are doing last minute shopping. After my shower I looked from my window and sipped some hot chocolate.

That is when I saw a guy looking at me from afar. He's not that near but I can see him staring. I felt like I was being stalked. I closed the curtain and sat on the reclining chair that I had.

My phone rang and I picked it up only to hear my mother's voice from the other line.
"Luci... Are you going home for Christmas?" She asked in her sweet voice.
"I don't know mom. Maybe if you stop telling me to get a wife maybe I can come." I joked and laughed.

"Oh son... You know I want you to start a family already. I'm not getting younger and your dad also wants to have grandkids from you." She sighed.

I'm not a mama's boy and I don't want to indulge her in those thoughts.
"Mom... I'm going to marry when I feel like it okay?" I told her over the phone. "I will come to dinner this Christmas but I don't want to hear that thing anymore." I said which earned grunts from her.

"Oh alright. But you tell me when I finally get to have a grandkid." She joked and I heard my dad laugh from the other line. After 20 minutes we ended the call and I decided to walk outside to get some gifts. Since I'm an only child my parents expect a lot from me.

When I went out I was checking my social media account and wasn't really looking at where I'm going so I bumped into someone.
"Sorry." We both said and looking up I saw a very beautiful girl that I never saw before.

"Hi... Are you new here?" She asked me.
"Huh? Um... No. I've been here for 5 years." I answered.
"That's weird. I know everyone in this city. Why haven't I even see a face as good looking as yours?" She asked.

"Well... I don't go out often. I work as a breeder for dogs. Pedigree dogs." I replied.
"Oh... What's your name? I'm Dainara. Dainara Smith." She answered. Dainara... It sounds familiar. (I used my MC's name but as a reader you can use yours)

"I'm Lucius. Lucius Marshall." I replied.
"Lucius... Your name sound similar to the one my friend has." She said and smiled at me. She's so beautiful.

(A/N: My MC stays the same for years that came after the exchange program because she asked Solomon to help her to be immortal.)

"Really? Who's your friend?" I asked as she tried to dodge the question.
"He's... Oh look at the time. I'm sorry I need to go somewhere. I'm-" I interrupted her.
"Buying last minute gifts?" I asked her.

"Yeah." She plainly answered.
"Then let's go together. I can use a friend to help me decide." I smiled at her and we went.

Dainara's pov:

I felt like there were eyes following me. This  Lucius guy was somehow familiar. I just couldn't put my finger on it. We went to the shops to look around. Lucius said that he needed a girl's opinion to choose a gift for his mother. We went for his dad's gift first.

And then I heard my D.D.D. ring. It's someone from Devildom. I excused myself to go to the washroom and he agreed as the washroom was only a few steps away.

I answered it.
"Dainara..." I recognized the voice from the other line. "Diavolo... How wonderful of you to call. How's everyone?" I asked as I haven't been in touch for a long time.

I heard him sigh and I felt he was already tired of everything.
"Dainara there's a reason why we haven't called for the past 20 years you see... 20 years ago I messed up." I felt he was serious and he had a big problem.

"What happened?" I asked.
"You see... My old man was found dead in Lucifer's room when he was with child. They were both poisoned and I didn't know who to suspect and was under a big pressure. Things were messed up too. And someone gave me fake evidences that pointed Lucifer as the culprit." He narrated.

"And you're only telling me this now? Diavolo I was already under Solomon's tutorship that time and I could've helped." I nagged him. I know I didn't have the right to.

"I know. I'm sorry. Things went for the worst and I being the biggest jerk in the three realms believed and went after Lucifer's head when he was already suffering because of my accusations and his stress and the poison killed the baby." I gasped in his story and I wanted to point out what kind of jerk he was.

"What can I do to help now? Where's Lucifer?" I asked him. I was mad. Real mad.
"That's the problem. I've been looking for him for 20 years and yesterday... I figured that he made his choice 20 years ago to become a human mortal and... Forgot everything about us." He narrated which made me want to cry. Lucifer... Really did forget?

"Where is he? You didn't even answer my question." I tried to be the calm person I want to be at that moment.
"He's the human with you right now."  He answered which made me turn to where Lucius was. He was still choosing a gift for his dad.

"Diavolo you really messed up." I stated as I tried to pry my eyes away from Lucifer. No Lucius.
The jet black hair and the black eyes with red gradient... Tall and slender. And the pale skin. It was really him. I thought that Lucifer paid me a visit.

"I know Dainara. I know. Please help me." He begged.
"How can I help you if he doesn't even remember a thing about you or his previous life?"

"I love him Dainara. I know I messed up. But I haven't been myself these past 20 years. I want my family to be whole. I want Caim and Abbadon to have their papa. I want to have him near to me again."

"Diavolo... I don't know if I can. But I'll do my best. What plan do you have in mind?" I asked as he went blank for a while.

"I want to introduce myself to him." He said which didn't surprise me. He'll do everything even starting from scratch again.

"Alright alright..." I said and he told me a plan he devised himself. That we will meet him "by chance" and as a common friend I'll introduce them to each other. That'll be in front of Lucifer's apartment.

"Diavolo... What if he doesn't want you anymore? What if he's changed? A lot can happen." I told him.
"It can't be. He promised me he'd be mine for the lifetimes to come. He can't just leave me and our children."

"Diavolo now that he's human he doesn't have a connection with you or his brothers anymore. He doesn't have children in this life." I tried to explain to him.

"I don't care. I just want to be close to him somehow." He said and ended the call. I went to Lucius again and I smiled.
"Are you done picking a gift?" I asked trying not to feel awkward.

"Yeah. Now I'm picking a gift for my mom. She likes flowers and I'm thinking to get her a new fancy flower vase." He smiled as we left the store to go to an antique vase store.

"Your mom likes antiques?" I asked. 
"Well... Kinda. She collects the unique antiques she sees. So I'm going to do my best to find the most unique and beautiful vase there is. That's why I need your help in choosing."

"Oh... Okay. Let's go find that perfect vase." I said and we looked.
After an hour or so we ended up finding two vases. An ocean blue one and a pure white with a painting of giant waves on it. I found the one with the giant waves on it.

"I cannot decide. Both are very stylish and looks good."I told him as we estimated the two vases which are both 3 feet tall.
"What if I just take them both?" He asked.
"Well... That's a good idea." He said as he went to pay in the counter.

"Ah no... I'm 3 dollars short." He sighed as he tried to make his changes fit the three dollar shortage.
"I'll pay for it." I smiled handing the 3 dollars.
"But... You don't even know my mom." He said which I chuckled at.

"Well... Your mom seems to be a sweet lady. And you seem to be nice too." I say and we both went out of the store to go home.
"Where do you live Dainara? Let me walk you home."

"Just a few blocks away from where we met." I told him.
"Well... We're practically neighbors." He exclaimed and we laughed. We were laughing when I saw a familiar face.

Diavolo...
