chapter 19

A woman stood draped in white apparel laid on the wet grass as she watched the swans gracefully paddle in the water. The breeze blew softly with her hair swaying in it.Her hair was as white snow falling over her shoulders curly at the tips. She clasped her hands and mumbled a few words. The breeze blew a little more strongly lifting her garment but an icy hand tighten around her waist pinning her body to his. She smiled and turned round to face him. He held tightly onto her while he took in her sweet scent.

His hot breath on her skin sent shivers through her. He nimbed softly on her ears making her squeal with excitement. His serpent tongue licked gently behind her ears before going down the her shoulders. She closed her eyes to prevent her senses from being knocked out.

" please control yourself. we already took that risk before and I barley escaped my father's wrath. Where is she? You were supposed to let me see my daughter today. I have spent 20 years away from her already. My heart bleeds each time I recall that I wasn't the one who took care of her as a child and yet you want to set me the privilege of seeing the woman she has become "

A tear drop fell from her eyes

" Sarah I would never do anything that would hurt you. You know the man I am. I was never created to love but you made me defy my command. For you I would lay down my life without hesitation and yet you think I would not allow you to see our daughter. Blu is as beautiful as you are. She is very brave, courageous and gas a strong heart. Am sorry I couldn't bring her to you. But I assure you that I raised her just as you wished. She is a pure angel and she has the capacity to will God's power if you train her right "

He held her chin up " don't worry about anything"

Sarah laid her head on his chest as he hugged her tightly feeling her with his Ice but she did not mind.

She knew she was wrong and should never have fallen for the devil but she had no control over her heart.

While everyone in heaven expected her to train constantly to make her grow stronger to be able to will God's power, he treated her like a true queen. He never expected her to be perfect neither did he try to tell her what to do. He never even for once mentioned the fact that she was his enemy but instead he told her to live her life the way she deemed it. To always do what she loved. He gave her no formalities thus becoming her one true friend.

She doubted his sincerity but as the years flew by, he showed her he would never break her spirit so she trusted him fully.

Then love came knocking at their hearts and they opened the door letting it waltz in. It was forbidden love but they didn't care. Together they found a place to be themselves and drop all acts. Enemity was abandoned underneath the shadows while love shun brightly at their windows.

She loved Lucifer and nothing would change that. Not her brother, not even her father himself. If it meant to forgo the throne of heaven for him, she gladly would.

" what would happen if my father finds out " her voice came as a whisper.

" don't think about that. I always live in the present. Let tomorrow worry about itself."

She looked up at him " those are my brother's words in the scriptures "

He didn't reply her. He kissed the top of her head and carried her face up.h

His eyes burned with passion as he stared at her red lips. But she broke the moment.

" If my father finds out he will kill you and I. I do not want you to die. I would rather abandon heaven and live with you for all eternity "

The lust that dangled dangerously in his eyes had vanished and was replaced with anger.

" don't you ever for a second think of leaving heaven for me. I love you with all my being and I would never want to ruin your happiness. Your father loves you so I do not want to come between you two. The instant he finds out you have to alert me. I can never crush your dreams "

" you would never want to ruin my happiness? you can never crush my dreams? But you are the reason I am happy. You are the only thing occupying my dreams "

" Don't go about this wrongly. If you leave heaven, your father would burn hell down to the ashes before the prophecy. None of us will live to see the light of day. Always remember that I love you Sarah. Always "

" I will" she threw her arms around his neck wrapping him in a warm embrace. Her eyes were moist and soon enough, tears flowed like a stream Don her cheek. She took his mouth in hers briefly.

" I have to go "

He bent his head sadly.

" I'll be here tomorrow. Please let me see her "

He raised his head after she left. He stood rooted to that spot for a couple of minutes as his hair danced with the wind. His thumb grazed over his lips which was no burning as the result of her kiss. He scoffed

"Just on kiss is all it took for her to make me feel this way. She will certainly be the end of me. The sooner I end this plan and ascend God's throne the better it is for me. It's intriguing what ends people will go for the sake of their feelings. Only if she had taken his powers before I came,dge would have been able to see through my scheme. Too bad for her. By the time I am done, he would wish h had taken her brother as an heir instead "
