Chapter 31 - To Trick the Devil

Meredith wasn’t sure how exactly Jackson tricked Lucifer. All the Devil would tell her is that he was trapped in Jackson’s pocket. He feared anyone—even one of his demons—having the knowledge of how to kidnap Satan, the Prince of Darkness. Eventually, Jackson grew tired of listening to the Devil threatening him and released him, but only after some serious negotiation. They struck a deal that Lucifer would leave Jackson alone for another ten years if Jackson released him. Satan grudgingly agreed, and Jackson released the Devil, walking away feeling safe and sound for the time being. When Lucifer left, he was far from pleased at being the recipient of one of Jackson’s tricks and, entering Hell, Lucifer swore that Jackson Lantern would rue the day he ever tried to make a deal with the Devil.
