So, after the ball, me and 'Brina talk to the high Priestess and her sister.

"This could be our shot to defeat the pagans." I whisper, "And Sabrina won't have to be the Queen, I will."
"No, you are my niece's friend. I am not letting you free Lucifer, even if it helps with the pagans. We will find another way."

"Aunt Zelda..." I sigh, "We both know that this is the only way. There is no denying it anymore. We need Lucifer... I have to say yes. And me saying yes isn't just about the coven, it's about the people of Hell too..."

They all (Zelda, Hilda, Sabrina, Ambrose and Prudence) look at my sadly.

"I'll tell Lucifer tomorrow." I smile, even though it doesn't match what I genuinely feel...

I go home. Almost ready for bed before Lilith visits.

"So, you asked Lucifer to spare me?" She asks and I nod, "Why?"
"Because you're my regent..." I reply.
"Well... thank you." She smiles and I give a small smile.

"And oh, before I forget. Caliban gave this.." She hands me a locket and a note.
"He said that you should read the note now. And open the locket when you're ready."
"Ready? What does he mean ready?" I ask.

"I don't know. I asked the same thing. He said that you'll know..." She replies.
"Bye then Lilith..."
"Good night, Bridget." She says before disappearing.

I open the note.

Dear Bridget,

I am so sorry-

I rip the note to pieces before I can read the rest of it. I don't want his stupid apology. I don't wanna hear it.

And I hate his stupid necklace. I hate it, I hate it, I hate it, goddamn I freaking love it...

My mom comes into my room, "I heard a voice, who was it? Was it you?" She asks.
"No, Mom. Don't worry. Now, go to bed, you look tired..." I reply.

"What's that Necklace? It's beautiful..." She asks... "It suits you really good... Put it on."
I look at my mom, hesitantly before putting the locket on, "Happy?" I ask and she nods.

I smile, she kiss my forehead and I go to bed... Talking about long days...

It's the next morning. I'm back in Hell.

"So, have you considered my proposal?" Lucifer asks.
"Yes, I have..." I sigh, "And I accept..." Lucifer smiles, "But I have some conditions first..."

He groans, "What is it?"
"You spare Lilith. And you must restore the coven's power without any tricks..."
"Done." He responds and I smile, "Now get me out of here!" He commands.

"That's the job of the guards... They'll attend to that... In the meantime, I have a friend to comfort, especially now that her psychotic father is out and free..." I walk away and signal to guards to free Lucifer.

Hi guys! Short chapter, I know. But I'm having a writers block. I should be back to working soon. Love y'all!
