His Sanity by Mirah Selim (great book club books .txt) 📖

Why suddenly she pushed him back. It was obvious she wanted him just the way he did. The way she closed her eyes was the open proof then why. Just why.

"Lucifer I don't know what are you trying to do. But trust me you don't have that much control over me. It's not easy to fool me as well. You can fool anyone with your charms but not me." This burned his insides.

"Fooling you. What the fuck is wrong with you. I just ripped my heart out in front of you and you think I am fucking fooling you. Are you kidding me?" He raised his voice making her gulp realizing that in panic she didn't choose the right words.

Without replying to him she grabbed his both biceps placing her tiny palms on them. She forced him to stand up and sit on the end where she was sitting earlier.

She tried walking away but instead, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him. Her body stumbled on him. She had to grab his shoulders for support.

"You're not going anywhere tonight. You will sleep with me either you like it or not." With that, he pulled her tiny frame in his arms making her fell on the bed beside him.

She struggled to get away but instead grabbing her waist, he jerked her body against his chest making her whole body fell on his. His grip was tight enough to not hurt her but to keep her on spot.

"Lucifer what are---"

"Shh. Let's just sleep I don't want to fight more." He whispered caressing her hair with his hand.

"But your hand is bleeding Lucifer. It needs treatment." Instead of leaving, he pulled her impossibly close.

"Then let it bleed. I don't care." He against murmured kissing her head making her huff out in disbelief.

She stopped struggling and just did what she needed to. Wait. She waited for him to fell asleep so she could treat his hand. And it did happen soon she heard him breathing slowly and his grip on her loosening up.

She gently crawled away from his arms and stared at him with a frown. How did he even let her get away from his arms? That never happened before.

She without making any noise brought the first aid kit and grabbed his bloodied hand only to let out a hiss at how badly injured it was. The cuts were deep and he was still bleeding.

With the help of a wet towel, she wiped his blood away from his hand and then wrapped the bandage carefully. She was shaken at how in a deep sleep he was. He didn't for once move. That was weird.

She still completed her task and then closing the kit. She kept seated beside his sleeping figure staring at him with sadness yet confusion in her gaze.

The man she witnessed on the dining table wasn't the man who expressed his love for her while kneeling. It was almost like someone else had taken over him.

It wasn't kid Lucifer or a dominant scary one. It was another part of him. The new personality of Lucifer. But again how. He wasn't behaving like angry Lucifer or childish one instead he looked mature yet dominant.

What's happening. How many personalities did he have stored in him? How much he had fooled her over the years. What's the truth she had no idea of.

But she knew one thing. The eyes she had witnessed when he confessed his love was familiar to her. She had seen those eyes before. They were hazel but the way he looked at her was different.

Staring at him for God knows how long she finally decided to lay down beside him.  She didn't want to anger him again. But as soon as she closed her eyes the man laying beside her snapped open his.

His gaze wasn't an obsessive one or a purely innocent one. It was normal. Just like a normal lover. He looked like he was trying to express something through his eyes but he seemed too helpless.

His gaze went to his bandaged hand as a small genuine smile appeared on his lips. His eyes again moved towards her sleeping face sighing out in content.

"I am sorry Little one. But it's not in my hands anymore. I am sorry."
