We both were in pain but due to different causes, even though the culprit was the same. I could suddenly feel bubbles of emotion bursting in my heart. I was happy, joyous, relieved that I finally met with my mother, with my real mother, but deep down I was scared, angry, and terrified about the fact of what Lucifer would do to her.

"Lucifer!! Please! Let me hold her!" The eagerness, desperation was evident in her voice. I looked up to find Lucifer standing beside me with arms crossed over his broad chest, making him look more intimidating than he already was.

Words left my mouth as I abruptly nodded, making him laugh out loud. And the devious look in his eyes scared a hidden piece of me.
