Chapter 2

Ever

I can feel my body heat up under Lucifer's gaze as he runs his eyes over the length of my body. He tuts lightly when he sees the deep scars on my thighs from cutting myself as a teenager. It had been a place that no one could see, but as I had grown older, the scars on my thighs had built and I had no longer felt the pain and had moved on to more sensitive areas. My arms, upper and lower, along with my breasts and my abdomen was littered with the thin scars.

"Those will disappear shortly, come get into the bath. I want to make sure your body is clean and whole before you receive my touch." Lucifer looks at me like he sees something I don't. I had always tried to hide from my reflection the only time I looked into the mirror was when I was feeling my lowest and the dark voices in my mind urged me to look over my scar covered body.

His touch...I shiver though the room is heated. Thick waves of steam wafts from the hot water of the tub. I look at his large hands and imagine those hands on my body.

What would it feel like having those hands on me as they brought me pleasure? Pain? I found myself wanting to feel them as he gave me the most pleasurable torture.

The dark thoughts inside my head spoke up for the first time since I had awaken. For so long they had been my only companion.

Why would he want you?

Shame... Even if it was only for a moment I had thought that he could want someone like me.

"Stop. Now." I startle at his rough tone as he grabs both of my arms pulling them in front of my body. His hands wrap around my wrists. I look from his thunderous expression and wonder what has made him angry.

Pulling one of my hands in front of his face I notice my nails that have a fresh stain of blood on the tips before I feel the warmth of blood dripping down my arms. I hadn't even felt the pain of my nails sinking into my skin.

"Rule number 2. You are Never to harm yourself. The only person to leave marks on your body is me. I will punish you each time I find marks on your skin that was not made by me." He brings my arm to his mouth his tongue laving over the skin. I watch wide eyed as it heals before my eyes.

"Tell me you understand Ever. I want to hear it from your mouth as you look into my eyes that you understand. Now Ever."

"I understand." I shake my head as I lift my gaze from his mouth to look into his eyes.

Lucifer

I had sealed the wounds on her arm but I was angry. She had dared to harm herself in my presence. I can feel the muscle tick in my jaw as I ground my teeth together. 

I start to remove my clothing as I ponder her punishment. She had already defied me once and this time though she had not known I would forbid her to harm herself she had already known she belonged to me. As I pull off my jacket laying it on a bench I hear the sound of her startled voice. Her hands are in front if her face as a scarlet blush spreads across her cheeks.

Hmm...

Tossing my shirt with my jacket I remove my belt and walk towards the edge of the tub.
