chaptet 11: slip up

"Lucy wake up!" I hear a voice say.

I could feel my body being shook quickly as someone gripped my sholdures.

My eyes slowly fluttered open to see the devil himself standing over me.

Slowly I rub my eyes to wake myself up from the ride back to his home.

"I'm up" I say groggily and stepped out of the circle with a helping hand from Asher.  

He chuckled a bit shakeing his head at me but I just ignore it and walked ahead to the door before reliseing a small creature by my feet.

The dog has black fur and black horns that go into a flame red at the tips, Sparks fly off its horns, paws and tail. When I look at the tail I am mezmorised to see that the end is in flames with a beautiful purple coloured fier, as often her back she had small purple bumps.

The paws have sharp claws and the fur is rugged and knotted all over.

The creature stops when I do and stears at me.

"What's this?"

Asher stopped little ahead of us and looked over his sholdure.

"That's magma she is your hell hound, shes only a pup though" he replied and ushered us to follow.

I had to armit she was a cute hound and she was so beautiful and gentle.

When her tail git near me it never felt like it burned only like a tingling feelig.

Me and magma started to walking again.

I smilef again as I feel her following along side me.

Her eyes listened when she looked up at me everyone and then.

Her small barks and yips were very high pitched, almost to the count if shattering glass.

With a tierd face I walk into my room and plop down into my bed

"Do you like her. I thought you could use a friend seeing as your always by your self, but mainly shes ti stop you shopping around more" he said with a huff.

A small smile was on my lips until I hurde a knock at the door interrupt us. 

The door eloely creak open and there stood Angelica with her hands folded tightly over her chest as she smiled looking over to us.

Asher sighed as I hid behind him not knowing what she wanted or if she was just going to cause trouble again.

"Come now my child don't hide" her voice was sweet, kind, fental and caring, unlike hoe she would normally speak to me.

She wanted something.

Asher sudanly became angry over Angelica words as hes posture turned strait and stiff like he wanted to hit her.

Now now don't be so protective over the human" she said with a smirk

"What do you want angelica" he hissed out angrily.

I had never seen him so mad nit since my first fre nights were I would snoop around his home.

I eanted to move off the bed and towards her but asher was stud in the way; i could already tell he would just grab my arm pulling me back behind him if I had even tried. 

I stayed were I was sat as asher walked to the door way, he pulled the door shut after him and began to talk to angelica.

I suddenly heard shouting and creeped over to the door slowly putting my head against the door to listen in.

It sounded like they was arguing, arguing over me.

Magma barked and growled at the noice before I hushed her with a finger against my lips to tell her silence.

She kindly obliged and lied down silently under the bed surprisingly not burning anything.

"She's a human asher you can't keep her here" I hear angelica say with annoyance.

You could hear Asher huff behind the door and yell back at her in response.

"I don't care angelica that boy hurt her iv see what he dose behind her beck for the past couple of years" he wisper shouts.

"He what?"

My body felt light all of the sudden, I could hear the thumping inside of my head getting faster and faster.

How could he do this to me?

he's seen what chaise has been doing behind my back.

He knew what he was doing, He knew the deal would end up in his favour, He doesn't care about anyone he only cares about himself and causing others pain.

I slowly hear foot work and ran back over to the bed before hearing them stop outside if the door.

Asher looked at me he could tell I was upset for some reason.

He walked up to me and roughly picked my chin up with his hand  to look at him, I twisted my head awa and moved back ever so slightly moving my body further onto the bed.

"Lucy what's wrong" he asks me with a raised brow.

He was playing dumb.

He had been playing dumb with me the hole time I was here, like some toy of his.

Like he doesn't know.

He knows why I'm upset.

He knows what's wrong; he plays like he doesn't know what he's done.

"Lucy I said what's wrong!" he growled out impatiently his eyes holding a small bit of worry in his eyes but it was hard to see.

The growl made magma bark for a second before he glared af her and she hid away from sight back under the bed her flames going out.

I wanted to say "You know what you did"  under my breath

He diddnt hear me.

He still looked down at me confused on why I was mad and yet he knew why at the same time.

Maybe he wanted to ignore it or maybe he just wanted to have some fun and games by playing with my emotions.

He had to do this when I was just getting to think he was a good person behind all that shroud, behind that's scary mask he out on for everyone else to see.

"You knew about chase..." I mumbled slightly louder gritting my teeth together in anger as my hands clutched the bed sheets tightly, a ball slowly forming from the soft fabric.

"....you knew he was with my best friend-"

The tears threatened to fall from there place but I didnt want them to.

I had already cried to mutch over chais and the fact that i was never going home.

This place really was hell.

This really was torture.

I couldn't hold it back any longer.

I could feel my throat becoming dry and tight from holding back my screams and crys, the pain I wanted to let out.

The words rushed out like a volcano ready to erupt.

"YOU KNEW! YOU BASTERD YOU KNEW!"

The tears feel my throat shrivelled on the inside.

It was sour and painful to even say a word.

Small creaks came out when I cried and my eyes closed tightly shut to try and stop the stinging in them.

When I finally opened my eyes I could see he was closer to me.

Bent down on one knee his hands going to wards mine ready to grab them.

I pulled away quickly.

"You wasnt ment to find out" he said and growled looking at me.

Was that all he could say.

I wasn't ment to find out.

He was the devil, that was true, he was the ruler of hell and he deserved that name, he was a monster.

"Lucy I didn't want you to be with him"  he sais looking at me.

He said strict dark eyes, darker then normal, he was anoyed with me.

My body felt like it was getting hit the anger going strait to my head.

Smack

I didn't relise it but my hand had come in contact with his face.

It wasn't that hard but it was still a strike on the devil.

He stud up and pulled me close to him.

What was he trying to do, Be nice to me after I had just found out what happened at this point I trusted angelica more then him.

My anger built up again and I started to slam my fists against him as hard as I could but it didn't effect him.

"calm down you stupid human! You should be happy"

My eyes widdened.

"Happy!" I yelled in my head

Happy how could he say that.

How could I be happy knowing somone knew I was going to get hurt and just watched, they saw me be played for a fool and just waited till it was the right momment to break me more.

"NO"

I push at his chest and manage to get myself louse, i run out the door  and bump into angelica.

Asher looks over to my dirrection with angry filling his eyes, his brows furrowed down into his face showing how anoyed he was.

He was mad very mad.

Angelica wrapped one arm around my shoulder a small smile laying on her face as she looked over to asher.

Asher grinds his teeth together.

"You did that on perpous didn't you?, you wanted her to hear what I said didn't you?" he yelled

When he yelled you could see his eyes slowly growing darker a pair of black bat wings apearing on his back and a pair of twisted black horns sprouting on his head.

Black sparks start to fly, Angelica pushed me back behind her, a big pair of white  wings sprouted from her back and a small haylo apeaed above her head.

Ashers anger got stronger and stronger each time after a while he asked angelica something in another language, she didn't answer.

You could tell the tention between them started to grow.

Asher was now throwing small balls of fier at angelica.

She blocked them by grabbing her haylo and putting it were they were heading at her allowing them go burst once they came into contact.

"She needed to know!" She yelled.

Ashers Growled and walked up to her glaring into her eyes and huffed his wings spread out wide.

Angelica did the same to cover me but out of curiosity I poked my head around her wings and saw Asher, the devil.

He looked like he had been possessed, like all he had in him was pure darkness.

He looked over me for a second before his eyes started to fade back to normalx his horns disappeared, The only thing that stays was a small bit of darkness hanging in his eyes.

"No she didn't" he said and frowned more. "Now leave hell and get back to your relm you over stayed your welcome" he gritted out.

My gaze drifted over to the bed to see magma ever so slightly sticking her head out and looking at me gently ready to pounce if any harm came to me, although she was still a pup but then again she was still quiet big for her age.

After a while angelica huffed and looked at me her wings fluttering behind her before shrinking back into her body only leaving two small holes were two gashes of skin could be seen.

She slowly turned her head to me and smirked.

"If you need me just think Angelica help in your head and I'll be called apon" she said before taking her leave down the hall.

Asher huffs before pulling me by the fore arm from the hall way and to his side.

He still looked anoyed, mad even that I had found out, maybe I could some how use this to my advantage, Maybe I can get something out of this, Maybe I can make him give me something in return for me to trust him again.

"I want some more books" I I say simply pulling myself away from him again and walking over to my sofa.

I lightly pat my hand on the sofa signalling for magma to come join me.

She gave a small bark and slolwy walked up and jumped on giving my face a nuzzle before curling up into a ball.

I could feel ashers eyes looking at me, if felt like the back of my head was burning from the glares he was giving me.

After a while Asher growled and closed the door leaving me and magma alone in my room.
