CHAPTER 47:
We reach the door to our room in what feels like seconds. It swings open just long enough for us to step inside, then slams shut and locks. I stop just onside the door, watching Lucifer pull away and start pacing the room. He's beyond furious, not at me, but at his brother for coming down into his domain and trying to steal away his queen. I feel no anger or annoyance towards him. Any rational man would be upset after that.
That said, I can't watch him pace the floor like a trapped animal. It makes me nervous. I want him to calm down faster, to cool off quickly enough that we'll still have time to roll around in bed. I square my shoulders and walk over to him, gripping his wrist and pulling him towards the bed. He resists at first, but acquiesces and follows me back.
I reach the bed and spin around, sitting down on the soft blankets the line the enormous oak structure. With Lucifer staring at me dispassionately, I reach up and hook my hands on his shoulders, gently forcing him to his knees. He crumbles easily, collapsing to the floor and gazing at me with hollow, empty eyes.
Fuck. That's creepy as hell.
I loop my arms around his neck and pull him forward, guiding him to the front of my dress. If I know Lucifer, then my body will do wonders to calm him down. His cool cheek presses against my breasts and I hold him there, running my fingers through his messy hair. He relaxes almost immediately, turning his head so he can press his nose against my skin and breathe me in. He nuzzles the skin of my breasts, and a soft smile finally arrives on his lips.
"If I had the ability to die," he whispers against my skin, "I would suffocate myself in your breasts and die a happy man."
I relax a bit and smile myself. "Please don't. I'd have to sleep here alone."
He groans happily and pulls away, looking up at me apologetically. "I'm sorry about that argument. Something about Michael always seems to set me off."
I run my fingers through his hair again. "I understand. He pisses me off, too."
His smile widens a bit. "Anything I could do to help my distressed queen?"
I pause, the gears in my head starting to spin. My curiosity builds, the reckless teenage side of my conscience daring me to ask for something insane. My rational side stares in horror, begging that I return to sanity and ask for something normal. I stare at him and chew my lip, stalling for time while my two halves fight for supremacy.
Lucifer's smile falls a bit, his eyes turning worried worried. "Lisa?"
With one final shove, my reckless side claims the crown. "Mind if I blow off a little steam?"
"Blow off a little..." His eyes narrow in confusion, then widen with hope. "I do hope you're implying what I think you are."
I smile and nod.
He stares at me with wide, thunderstruck eyes.
