Lucifer

No guards followed me down the hall to the bathroom. The security in the palace was pathetic, but that would make it easier to rescue Gemma. Then she would have to fall at my feet.

Last time I’d been in Atlantis, the walls had been made of mud from the ocean. After Zeus and my fight, Poseidon had rebuilt the palace using gems and the best seashells. His palace never would have looked this good if it hadn’t been for Zeus and me.

I pushed open the door to the restroom and pulled out my phone. Scrolling through the contacts, I got to Wrath, and I sent her a text.

Lucifer: Can you text me the layout of Atlantis?

Wrath: R we finally taking it over?

Lucifer: I need to get Gemma out of the dungeon first.

Wrath: I call dibs on Poseidon’s office.

Lucifer: Map. Now.

Wrath: Get your flames under control.

I watched the three bubbles on my screen. Seconds later, another text came through with a full map of Atlantis.

Wrath: Let me know when we are storming the castle.

Ignoring her last text, I scanned through the map, looking for the fastest way to the dungeon. There was an elevator at the end of the hall that would take me down to the dungeon level. I slipped my phone back in my pocket and walked quickly down the corridor.

When I got to the elevator and pressed the button, nothing happened. I pressed it again. Nothing. Someone walked up behind me and pressed the button, and it lit up.

“It wasn’t working a second ago,” I said.

The servant pointed back down the hall. “You need to go check with security. Maybe something happened to your access.”

Theseus came down the hall with a beer in his hand. “Hey. I thought you would be on your way back to hell by now.”

“I love what your father did to the place.” I waved my hand around. “You mind showing me around the dungeon?”

Theseus leveled a glare at me for a few seconds before pressing his thumb to the elevator. As with the servant, the button lit up, and I followed him into the silver elevator. It was nice, but it would have been better if it were made of gold. It had been centuries since I updated my place, and I couldn’t have Poseidon showing me up. I didn’t plan on going for the girly look like he did, but I might steal his interior designer and have her give me a concept.

Poseidon's son leaned against the elevator wall and took a sip of beer. That was what I was missing—a drink before battle.

“I’m surprised my father let you back into Atlantis.” He took another swig of beer. “I still hear him curse your name for what you did.”

The elevator door opened to show two guards standing at attention. Unlike the previous guards, they weren’t dressed in an elegant uniform with seashells. These guards carried large guns. They were also not from Atlantis. The men and women from Atlantis were tall, blond, and as skinny as models.
