“No.”
“Purgatory?”
“No.”
“Well, I know for sure we didn’t make it to Heaven.”
“Why not?” Now he looked amused.
“If this was Heaven, we just did something sinful!” I stressed and gestured to the door. “We had wild, rejuvenating sex! That has to be against a law in Paradise!”
“You realize our Creators created sex as a means of procreation.”
“Yes…” I began. “But it’s sinful.”
“If abused like any addiction that becomes a negative impulse that takes your mind away from your purpose in life,” he summed up and walked over to me the moment the bath water was at a good level.
Now he was facing me again.
“We’re not abusing it, so it’s not a sin,” he concluded. “And we’re not in Heaven.”
“Then where are we?”
“Apparently an alternate world where Lucifer comfortably lives,” he revealed. “A pit stop on the way to Hell, a short walk away from Earth, and a short distance to Heaven, Faerie, and a bunch of other universes we don’t need to visit.”
“Right.” I stared at him. “You’re too calm.”
“I’ll take that as a compliment,” he assured me before literally scooping me up. “Into the bath, you go.”
He lowered me into the calming waters of warmth before he laid a passionate kiss on my lips.
“I’ll be back. Stay in here and daydream about my cock.”
“I bet you that’s a sin to say as an Archangel,” I pressed and watched him smirk as he rolled his eyes and headed to the door.
That made me remember what we’d been talking about.
“Wait! If we’re at Lucifer’s place, are you trying to say that Lucifer’s Daddy Dearest?!” It finally dawned on me and left me gasping.
Atticus simply looked over his shoulder and smirked.
“Wait till I tell my Creator I’m mated to the Devil’s only daughter.”
With a wink, he was gone and I was left to sink further into the tub as the news finally sunk in.
Oh fucking goddess, I’m Lucifer’s daughter!
CHAPTER5
A Glimpse Of Hope In The Realms Of Flaming Despair: Part One
“HOW AM I LOSING?!” Cornelius screamed as he looked at the chessboard as a means to save himself from getting slammed with the magic word “checkmate.” “There has to be a way out of this!”
Arthur leaned back from his chair to glance at the gameboard.
“Nah,” he declared and shook his head. “You’re fucked.”
“You could have given him a glimpse of hope by having him move his knight,” Sawyer reasoned.
