There she sat, beside the treacherous hospital bed, clutching onto the almost lifeless hand of the man she loved. There were tears forming in her eyes, though May would not cry, she had to stay strong for him. Even if he did die...
She had tried praying, it didn't work and she was beginning to lose that little strand of hope left in her. Then she thought of something. No, it was stupid... But what else could she do?... she cleared her throat and softly whispered...
"Please, Lucifer, I need him to live, I'll do absolutely anything"
And with that the room went dark and a tall good-looking man appeared on the corner, a smirk playing on his red lips. His yellow eyes focused on her, a top his black messy hair two thick horns stood and behind him a spiked tail.
"Anything, you say, my dear?"
His voice was deep and playful, like honey. May, though surprised by the sudden appearance quickly nodded her head.
"Good, if you become my pet and promise to serve me loyally until the end of my days he may live, deal?"
The man offered his hand, the nails on the ends of his fingers being claw-like. May was quick to accept his terms reaching out and shaking his hand, and as she did blue flames ignited around the two hands.
"I promise to be a loyal servant to you, master"
With that his smirk grew and he let go of her hand, the dancing blue flames disappearing, walking over to an enchanting purple portal that had came to being in the room. Stopping just in front of it he looked over his shoulder at May.
"come now, pet... he will awake soon don't you worry, but I never said you'd be here to see it"
He smiled wickedly at her, causing May to let out a gentle sniffle tucking a strand of blonde hair she walked through the portal with no protest. Lucifer's eyes widened slightly as he glanced at the man in the bed, who was now stirring.
"She really would do anything for you, now that's true love"
His look then changed to one of disgust as he looked at the man.
"it's a shame you don't deserve it, you rotten mortal"
He said before turning away and following May through the portal, leaving the miserable world of depressing mortals behind.
Once back through the portal and in the underworld he turned to May, who was looking around in slight panic. He turned to her, the smirk returning to his face.
"Welcome to the underworld pet,you'll be staying here in my castle so I'd get comfortable"
He then pulled a sort of bracelet out of his pocket, a round silver ring shaped one, and handed it to her.
"Put this on, that way everyone will know you're mine, oh, unless you want a collar"
He grinned down at her slyly and May shook her head frantically before sliding the wrist accessory on.
"Good, now Nix will show you to your quarters, good bye for now little pet"
Lucifer turned and walked away, a smaller ,horned individual approaching her with long dyed hair and red eyes in contrast to Lucifer's yellow ones, she figured out that this must be Nix, she looked her up and down and taking her wrist started to pull her down the massive halls, though with an almost friendly smile, making May feel slightly relieved.
"Come on mortal, I'll show you to your room"
❤😈END OF CHAPTER 1😈❤
The room that Nix led May into was not at all as spooky and haunting as the rest of the castle. It was gorgeous, it was luxurious. The walls were white and so was the bed, various pieces of artwork hung on the walls, there was one of a beautiful river with boats on it that May liked in particular.
Nix turned and smiled at her surprised face, she chuckled and said
"Wow mortal, the master must like you to give you one of the best rooms in this damned castle"
May turned to her, the growing shock evident on her face
"H-he likes me?"
Nix chuckled yet again and nodded
"He doesn't do deals with just anyone, anyway I'll leave you, your stuff should be here already, see you at dinner mortal"
Nix said this then winked playfully then left the room, leaving May to do whatever she wished. Her stuff was indeed there as Nix had promised it to be and since she could think of nothing else to do May got her sketchbook and stationary and then sat at the breathtaking wooden desk that she assumed costed thousands since it had diamonds encrusted into it.
After drawing for what felt ages a knock arose from the door, startling May a little, she got up and went to the door. Once she opened it there was a smaller older demon with white hair and a mustache, in a comically posh accent he exclaimed
"dinner is ready, human"
May not wanting to upset Lucifer because he was rather intimidating nodded quickly and followed the old demon to the dining room, which was a lot more castly than her room.
There was a fireplace lighting the room, yet it cast shadow over the long table. Lucifer's shadow. There he was, sat at the end of the table hands clasped. His smirk came back to his face as he watched her approach the table, the suit he wore now a little more disheveled than earlier.
"Do sit down, my dear."
His silky echoed around the mostly empty room, it was only her and Lucifer other than a few servants and Nix in the corner, flashing the same friendly silly grin, making may feel a little more comfortable. She sat. Suddenly with a click of his fingers a ton of food appeared on the table and Mays mouth watered.
"Eat as much as you'd like, the leftovers will go to the servants"
May didn't waste anytime, stuffing her face before looking up at him, raising an eyebrow and questioning
"Aren't you going to eat"
Her voice was still shaky, though she was growing more confident.
"Ah, no..."
he replied
"Im not hungry, I'll leave you to your food"
He said standing up and smiling to her before turning and walking to his room, tail following after him.'that was odd' May thought to herself, but was to indulged in her food to care.
Lucifer looked through the pool at the mortal world, watching the man, that man... no, he couldn't anymore...that man disgusted him. With a growl of disapproval of what he had viewed he gently waved his hand over the pool causing the scene to disappear. He lay down on his bed, looking at the ceiling, hoping for sleep's friendly hand to claim him...
