Looking away from him, I see red hills, red dirt.
Where am I?
“Where am I?” I voice the question raised in my mind as I step away from both of them and toward a fire.
“You are in Hell.” I pause as I near the fire and look back to Lucifer. “You are beautiful with wings,” I tell him. “Now, take me back.”
“No, you need to calm down.”
“And you think being here will calm me down?” I yell at him.
“Shit! What have you done to her?” Valefar asks.
“The seer killed her lover,” Lucifer declares.
At his words, I feel myself snap just a little more. The ground beneath me starts to shake and Lucifer walks up to me, grabs my arm, and pulls me to him.
“Stop, right now.” When I glance at his eyes, I see the Devil, which is only fitting.
Lucifer growls, and as I go to speak, something hits me in the back of my head so I fall forward. Lucifer catches me, and my hands brush his wings. “You hit her?”
“Would you prefer I killed her?” Valefar says from behind me. Lucifer shakes his head. “What, you want her to bring Hell into the world?”
“Of course, I don’t.”
“Well, if that was me, you would have killed me,” Valefar argues.
“You want me to kill her?” Lucifer asks incredulously.
My head feels dizzy as I push away from Lucifer.
“Well, she is causing a lot of trouble.”
“She is going to be queen. Wouldn’t you rather someone like her ruling that world?”
“No, Iwould rather rule.”
“You will never rule, Valefar.”
“You are a real asshole. You know that, right?”
My hands go to the back of my head, and I rub it.
“It’s time you go back,” Lucifer says. “Don’t destroy the world in the process.” He touches my forehead, and I’m standing outside of the castle as it falls to the ground.
Something that was once untouchable, sacrosanct, is now falling to pieces as if it had been nothing but rubble all along.
“Talia.” Cinitta reaches me, and I turn to her. “Are you okay?”
“I’m going to destroy anyone who served him,” I tell her. Fire bubbling up in me.
“Where do you want to start?” Cinitta asks.
“Talia, you need to go and see Tatiana.” I ignore Tanya as she comes closer. “Talia.” Her hand touches my arm, and I shrug it off. “Talia, Max would want you with your family.”
“What did you say?” I spin to face her, stepping up close.
“Max would want you with family.”
