Narika: The Ghost Bride-Chapter 244 - Two Hundred And Fourty-Four:A Grieving Heart.
He watched her sleep.
Not that she was actually sleeping because she was tired, and needed rest. No! But because she was dead, Marilyn is dead!
His woman is dead, and that’s a fucking slap to his face. All these times the enemy was so close, so close than he could think but he couldn’t think of the reason why Erin would waste so many years of their friendship.
But the answer was clear to him, Rowan is his father, and sons are to listen to their father just like the rest of his children were. Lucifer has thought of any good reason why out of everything he owned, and yet Marilyn was the one who he lost.
The one person who was a human, and not a demon who he could easily resurrect using dark magic, not minding that it’s going to cost him to be reprimanded by the lawmakers. But he doesn’t care, at this moment he doesn’t care about anything anyone would say or do to stop him, because one thing is clear.
Rowan is going to be a dead man in two days time, and he would make sure of that. Nothing more, nothing less. The Grand Alliance and Crystal palace might have different opinions about what to do with him, but his word is final!
He’s going to kill Rowan! Everyone who contributed to the death of his loved one, including Erin but firstly he’s going to use him to trap Rowan down.
Even after everything that has happened, Lucifer hasn’t gotten the answer he wanted. If Erin was truly the enemy, then why did he try to warn him about Lucius, which is another topic to discuss because the motherfucker is nowhere to be seen. It’s like he disappeared or maybe Rowan had mind compelled him, just like he did to the humans.
That’s bullshit, Lucuis is a demon. One that he didn’t know its history or how he came to exist, another mystery to be solved who he’s totally getting every answer tonight.
A bang on his door reminded him of Adrik, who was outside his room requesting to see Marilyn. Her death didn’t just affect him but their son too, and right now he could only come to understand what it truly felt like to lose something so dear to you.
But looking back at the way he treated her, he didn’t know if it was right for him to be acting the way he was doing right now. Marilyn was nothing but a prisoner here, one that he forced down here with him, and there’s the part where her real husband is locked up in his dungeon, having no idea that she’s gone.
He should have treated her right, Lucifer was regretting everything, including their twin girls that he has no idea what Erin has done to them, he’s nothing but a failure than a king everyone saw him as.
What sort of a king was he if he can’t protect his family?
If he can’t be there when he’s needed, but would create more time to protect his kingdom and his image, than to care for the people he loved as he claimed?
"Let me see her, father, please." Adrik cried outside. He was using his powers to try to counterattack the ring of protection he had over the room where they were in, blocking other people from coming in including him too.
"Adrik." Lucifer heard Narika call him, everyone was outside waiting for him. To know what was his say in this situation and the longer he’s here without being outside to strategize their plan to kill Rowan, the more the spies Rowan has implanted in his Kingdom was likely to hurt other people, which he can’t have.
He stroked Marilyn’s smooth face with his thumb. She was cold but that didn’t stop him from thinking of every possible means to bring her back to live. He’s no angel of light, and Micheal and Gabriel would be the last people to help him.
But he’s ready to do anything just to bring her back, if that would include that he forever remains under their supervision. Although it’s going to be hard to do that, as long as he’s got Marilyn by his side, that was enough for him.
Having found such a good yet stupid idea that he knew wouldn’t come to light, but then the hope that truly he’s going to get what he wanted made her stand up from the side of the bed he was in, to finally kiss her lips one last thing.
"I will bring you back, Marilyn. I promise you." Lucifer said lastly, before walking out of his room to see everyone. By everyone it also includes his other children and they had this sympathetic look on their faces.
One that the old Lucifer would find annoying, because that would only entail that he has a weakness. But right now, he doesn’t care because the cat has been let out of the bag. Marilyn is his weakness.
"I will prepare an arrangement for her body to be..." Raj was the first to speak, offering to take care of the dead body but he cut into her words.
"You will do nothing, Raj. She’s fine where she is.’’Lucifer said coldly, there was this sudden gleam about him that made everyone fear for their lives.
They haven’t seen him this way before, and that made no one try to push further with their discussion about what to do with Marilyn, so as to not tip him off the more.
"She’s dead, Lucifer. What exactly do you plan on doing with a dead body?" Erin asked from the wall, where he was pinned to, as a mocking laughter left his mouth, and that was it.
That was everything Lucifer needed to lose control, the temperature in the room changed instantly, just like Lucifer who changed form and raised his hands up towards Erin, who came flying to stop at where Lucifer was, with his hand wrapped tightly around his neck.
"How many others?" He asked in a cold tone, " How many spies are here?" He added, as everyone watched hoping that if Erin knew what was good for him he would stop trying to lessen his death by giving Lucifer what he wants.
"That’s lt, Man! I have being missing this look of yours for a long time, Marilyn really did a number on you."
But stupid Erin chose to die like a fowl, because a single blow from Lucifer was what made him cough out blood, as he fell to the floor shaking vigorously, while trying to touch his heart and gain control of his body.
"How many!!!" Lucifer thundered, making Aurora jump where she stood besides Azazel, who held her hand to comfort her.
"He’s going to kill him, don’t we need him alive to threaten Rowan using him?" Narina asked the others, who were also scared just like she was.
"That’s the point, but i don’t think Lucifer seems to know that."Oregon said.
Since no one was brave enough to interfere into what Lucifer and Erin had ongoing, stupid Abbadon tried playing captain America.
"Father, I don’t think..." His words were cut short of him, when something snapped and Abbadon coughed out blood, before falling face flat to the floor.
"Noo!" Aurora cried in horror," is he dead?" She asked Azazel, who didn’t give her any answer before taking her out of the room, just like his other siblings who carried Abbadon’s limb body to start treatment.
"You have been nothing but blind, Lucifer. All..these y..years, yet you couldn’t see the handwriting on the wall. Do..you think you would finally have peace after the pain you caused?" Erin stuttered, before laughing hysterically then screamed in pain.
His words got to Lucifer who increased his torture. Raj tried stepping forward, but Oregon shaked his head talking her out of what she’s trying to do.
Erin deserved everything he’s passing through, and Lucifer deserves to let out some pain. He’s grieving.
"Speak!!" He roared, just like Erin did too, Narika covered Ares’ eyes from the scene. Not that he wasn’t actually going to see something worser than this in two days time, but this was pure torture.
Since Erin was wasting tone, Lucifer hoisted up in the air, ropes tying around his hands and feet line a starfish, before Lucifer started to drag the rope ls apart using his powers with ease.
He’s trying to disintegrate his body into parts, and when Erin figured out what that means, finally gave in, crying out in pain as he screamed.
"Lucius!!"
Hearing his words, Lucifer stopped before coming closer to him." Where is he?" He asked, the two of them were working together and yet he tried to Make him see Lucuis as the enemy.
"Why did you want me to suspect Lucius?" He asked, but Erin sighed.
"He’s a useless son, we are better off without him. He wasn’t able to accomplish anything with you." He laughed, before coughing out more blood. " Can i leave now?" He asked, looking at him.
He thinks this is funny, but he would show him how funny things would get in two days’ time." No, you won’t ever leave because you are going to help me resurrect Marilyn just like you did to Rowan." Lucifer muttered, as everyone looked at him as if he had gone crazy.
But yeah, he definitely has gone crazy.
