"From today onwards, Ares will be responsible for your security."
Haven froze.
Lucifer's voice was final, unwavering. She knew that tone. Knew there was no room for negotiation.
Her grip tightened around the glass in her hand. "I don't need a bodyguard."
Lucifer's stare was ice. "You don't get a choice in this matter Vida."
She scoffed. "You expect me to let him follow me around like a damn shadow?"
Ares stood by the doorway, silent, dark, and completely uninterested. The dim lighting cast sharp edges across his face-expression unreadable, stance lethal.
"You think I want this?" he muttered, voice low, detached. "So stay out of trouble, and I won't have to babysit you."
Haven turned to him, fury igniting like gasoline meeting fire. "Babysit? Cute. I didn't know Lucifer's lapdog could talk."
Ares barely spared her a glance. "Talk back to me again, and I'll show you what else I can do."
Lucifer sighed, rubbing his temples. "Enough. Haven, Ares will be your bodyguard until we find someone more... tolerable."
Ares scoffed. "Don't bother. No one would last a week with her."
Haven's lips curled into a slow, wicked smirk. "Then let's make sure you don't last a week either, shall we?"
For the first time, Ares actually looked at her.
Long. Cold. Assessing.
And then, he smirked too. "Try me, fiera."
Her pulse jumped at the name. Fiera. Little fire.
