"The motherfucker tricked us,” Lucifer growled as he crumpled the piece of paper resting in his hands and threw it on the floor.

"Now what? We can't let him get Sarah," Angelina said worriedly as she looked at Lucifer's pacing figure. Every single fiber in her body was feeling concerned and perturbed for Sarah.

"He won't touch her. I'll kill him before he could even think of laying his fucking fingers on her." Lucifer snarled as he slammed his fist against the wall-shaking it with the effect.

 Angelina leaped stunned. A thought crept into her head as she walked toward Lucifer. She could certainly see him trembling with resentment.

She put her hand gently on his shoulder as he halted jerking.

"Reynes isn't safe for her,” Lucifer looked at her with a scowl masking his worried emotions. He looked into her eyes and threw his hand in the air knowing where this conversation was going.

"Have you lost your mind?" He said as he turned around but Angelina quickly grabbed his arm.

"And it is the only solution, why don't you understand,” She said frustratingly as she tried to convince him.

Lucifer narrowed his eyes as he looked at Angelina's hand on his arm and yanked his arm back angrily.

"You don't tell me what to do." Lucifer snarled at Angelina as she backed away and leaned against the wall. Lucifer looked spitefully at her as he roamed his hand through his hair to calm himself.

"I-I just want her to be alive." A lone tear flowed down her cheek as she took deep breaths to not cry but was failing miserably. Her mind was becoming more chaotic passing second making her remember when her brother became a monster that everyone despises. She gulped down her bitter memories of the past as she looked painfully at Lucifer.

"She's changing you, brother," Angelina whispered lowly as words managed to pass out of her mouth. Lucifer's face twisted as he looked nonchalantly at her. He tried not to show his true emotions but failed as Angelina again gulped down. She wanted to know what was going on in his mind, she wanted to know why was he suffering inwardly, why he wasn't letting anyone see his true self, the self that was burned with Melissa's death.

"Don't pretend as you know me," Lucifer growled as he sensed Angelina looking at him. He breathed out in fury and smashed his fist on the table breaking it into two.

"No, I don't know you...but I know the brother hiding behind this tough face and...I promise you, brother, no one's going to harm her," Lucifer looked strangely at her as she quickly turned around and walked away. He kept looking at the door till the sound of her footsteps faded. He looked at the broken table as he sighed loudly.

"Fucking hell,"

"What?" It was remarkable and stunning at the same time. I was feeling delighted yet frightened simultaneously. 

Lucifer's words were still lingering in my ears and the clear threat that he imposed on me was scaring the living daylights out of me. 

"Yeah...pack a few necessary things and get ready. We don't have much time." Angelina said as she walked into the closet. I looked wide-eyed in the direction where she went and ran towards her.

"Like seriously? Are you sure Lucifer allowed me?" I asked nervously as I looked at her packing a few clothes in a duffle backpack.

"You sound worried, don't you want to go?" She raised her brow while she packed a few more clothes forcefully into the bag.

"No, No! It's just, I'm kinda excited. Why would he let me go to my parent's kingdom if he just threatened to kill them like a few hours ago?" I mumbled confusedly. What was going on in his mind? What were the games he was trying to play? Why did he suddenly permit me to see them?

All these questions were consuming me alive. I was feeling desperate to meet them and saw what they were like. So many emotions at the same time were hard to handle.

"Is he going with us?" I asked Suddenly my mind drifted to a few hours back when he threatened me. 

"Yes, he isn't going to let you go alone." She looked strangely at the duffle bag as clothes started popping out.

"Okay," I sighed. 

At least he was letting me meet them.

I had nothing much to pack only a few clothes and some other necessities. I still couldn't buy myself to believe that I was finally meeting my parents. All my life I was living in lies and now when I finally was going to see them for real, my heart started beating erratically against my chest. All the misunderstandings and confusions that Lucifer had about my family, I was going to clear. My heart was telling me that my father could never kill his mother, there must be something missing and I was going to find out what was that. 

And also I had a few questions for my mother too. I was seeing myself in a mess created by supernatural creatures including witches. Though they are mortal, they still held an upper hand in the historical period. Whatever their intentions were, they were neither good nor bad. Or probably they wanted to kill vampires and werewolves for their protection?

I didn't know. But I was going to, soon.

We were in Lucifer's car with Rafael driving, Lucifer sitting in the passenger seat and me and Angelina sitting in the back gossiping with our eyes. Lucifer's dark aura was making us shut our mouths till we reached there. I hadn't talked to him since he threatened me and it's not like I wanted to talk to him but he seemed somewhat distant. He was not in his usual self making me scared, rather he helped me get in the car by opening the door for me. 

I was shocked, I must say.

He was behaving rather nicely to me.

Why? I didn't know.
