24-Hurt.

We all got back inside the castle, Lucifer still holding me close to his chest I felt some tears go down my face on their own, they weren't waiting for my permission, they were just going down on my face. Lucifer's hold on to me was still firm, he got us inside to the throne room, pulling me on his lap, but I didn't want Andy to be hurt, I know he just got his ass beaten but what else is going to happen to him. "Lucifer, is he going to be okay?" I ask him with a teary face. "Other than his pride, I guess he's okay" Lucifer assures me, wiping my tears, kissing my cheeks making me smile. I didn't want to move from his hold, I stayed in his arm, closing my eyes enjoying the closeness.

"No, no, don't sleep, you still need to eat" he says shaking me awake, I whined, not hungry, or maybe I am hungry, I could stay awake while we eat. He moved us toward the dining table, we all sat down, it wasn't as many people as before, and I stayed in his lap the whole time, he fed me while I just opened my mouth for more food. "She's spoiled, and she only been here for what? Three days?" Keiran says with a laugh. "My pet has every right to be spoilt" Lucifer says, calling me pet again, I didn't like it, but I didn't object either, I didn't have any right to demand another title, I'm not his girl, not his loved one, just a pet. "Leave it Nova...overthinking would only mess with your head" he says kissing the side of my head.

The day passed like that, and the day afterward, and the day after, I don't know how long I've been here, but I've settled into a routine around here, I'm used to life here, it's not that bad except the showers he makes me take, I hate showering. Today was just the other ones, except Lucifer is starting to give me more freedom, I loving the power I get, one of those power is now choosing my own clothes for the day. I went a skirt for the day, a sweater on top, and some high knee socks to keep me warm, I tried to brush my own hair without touching my ears they kind of hurt lately. "Ready for the day pet?" Lucifer asks, finished getting dressed, I nod and run toward him holding his hand and walking with him toward breakfast first, food, I love food!

"I thought you love me pup" Lucifer says while I just shrug, I don't hate him, ever I came back here, I've been treated better than I have ever been treated back on earth, I don't mind hell after all. I was still in my baby space, little space as he calls it, I didn't want to come out of it, it makes everything easier, makes things much more fun. "Sit with you?" I ask, not wanting to sit alone, sometimes makes me sit alone, I don't like it, he just pulled me up his lap feeding me from his plate, food tastes better when he does it like this.

After food, we moved toward the throne room, I sat on my own seat, I love having one of my own, but I also get bored, I really bored from sitting here, I can't play with Keiran, he too is working, when I try to attack his wings, he'd tell me to settle down while he works. "I'm bored" I say after a while, I napped, I woke up, and I'm still sitting here. "Then don't be" Lucifer says, rude! I was about to give him some smarty-pants answer, when the door opened and in came,  Andy, he looked furious, but he wasn't alone, another guy with him, I mean another demon and they were fighting.

"Enough" Keiran says in a loud voice getting them both to shut up."What's this about?" Keiran asks again. "He's being a brat and refusing to do chores," the second demon says, my eyes went toward Andy, he looked angry, I have never seen him this angry, when he locked eyes with me, he now look hurt, in pain. "I'm not a maid" Andy growls "I'm a fighter!" he says. "I see...that how it's gonna be" Lucifer says with a growl, I was worried he's going to hurt him, my hand went toward his holding his hand, I don't want him to kill Andy. "Since you are not a maid, from now on your new job is to keep my pet entertained, she'd been locked inside for too long. If you are a fighter as you claim to be, you'll have no problem protecting her" Lucifer says.

Andy looked shocked, his eyes went wild, when he looked at me, he was furious about his new assignment, but I was a bit happy, maybe deep deep inside, I was happy I'm getting to spend some time with him now.
