++ After that evening with Diavolo, you and the rest of the House of Lamentation slowly adjusted to life in Devildom... Although everyone seemed to stray further and further from one another the longer you lived and you did not know how to assist the brothers... ++

"Lucifer this constant bickering has to end... How does one argue about something every evening? It is maddening." You huffed as you threw yourself onto his bed, "I mean... Seriously every evening we return from working they have something new to yell at one another."

"Leave the fools to their bickering, we have much more important things to do." Lucifer was referring to the research he was asked to do for Diavolo, research that involved centuries of history...

While within the library, Lucifer stood at a table littered with books and skimmed through the pages while you curiously looked over the massive collection of literature that filled the large room.

"I love this room Lucifer, the smell of the old pages and the floor to ceiling shelves of literature! It's jarring!"

"I am pleased to hear you so excited, but do be cautious darling."

You picked up a book and skimmed through the pages, but then a black book with gold trim caught your attention. It was as if you lost all control of yourself just to touch the book...

"Darling can you come here a moment? Darling?" Lucifer tried to catch your attention but you ignored him completely, "(First name)! Darling stop come here!"

Your fingertips caressed the book, but you immediately fainted. Your world went dark and your body grew cold, eternal sleep to never wake...

+++

Lucifer stood shocked, unable to move from where he stood, but soon collected himself just enough to pick you up and place the book into a case. He quickly brought you and the book to Lord Diavolo's castle, praying for the best...

"Come inside, please explain what had happened..." Diavolo seemed gloomy when he saw your sleeping face, he knew something just was not right...

Lucifer spoke of the book you touched with your bare fingertips and Barbatos was the one to speak:

"Pray tell that is not the book she touched?" Lucifer nodded, "She will stay in a deep sleep for many years... There is no way to tell when she will wake Master Lucifer... This book calls out to the wounded and ensnares then in sleep..."

Lucifer felt his heart break all over again, just when he thought he could be okay... God decides to smite him one last time.

The only person who could truly appreciate him, long gone into an almost eternal slumber... How could he go on like this? With the heavy burdens of his life coming down on him... How could he...

Internally, he fought himself and externally, he quietly sat without saying a word. Diavolo examined him for a moment before suggesting:

"Why not build a room to keep her comfortable in? We can attach it to your room so she may rest easy until she wakes."

Lucifer looked up for a moment, a single moment of weakness poured out, and he nodded solemnly:

"Yes... I think she would like to be as close as possible during this..."
