Lucinda wanted to talk, but she was lost for words. Her mouth couldn't open. She had to stay away from Earth now because of her own stubbornness.

"I have decided that Luis will do the job now. Maybe you are not fit to be my queen; you are too kind." Lucifer declared.

"I am not kind, I just want to see my enemy suffer on earth before I end his life. If I kill him now, he won't be able to suffer." She assured.

Queen Luna and Luis started clapping their hands. 

"Nice speech, my queen. You think we are kids you can lie to? I will definitely kill him." Luis stated, clenching his fists.

"Just tell the king the truth that you are in love with Ralph. He won't bite you." Queen Luna stated.

Lucinda's heart started pounding hard. Queen Luna's word really got to her. What if she tells Lucifer the truth, will he spare her? 

"What weapon do you want?" Lucifer inquired, staring at Luis.

"I just want an emerald sword to finish the job." Luis beamed.

"Luna, I thought we had one." Lucifer asked.

"We do, but I kind of lost it." She muttered.

"Then look for it! You are the one that lost it!" Lucifer declared in a deep voice. 

"I will." She replied. 

Lucinda cleared her throat, thinking about what Ralph might be going through on Earth without her. 

She wanted to go see him so badly.

"Can I go?" Lucinda asked bluntly.

"You can go. I will reconsider. You are competing with Luis now. Whoever kills Ralph first can ask me for anything." Lucifer beamed.

Lucinda and Luis both glared at each other.

"We're on my queen," Luis muttered, grinning.

"Yes." She muttered with her head held high.

"Lucinda, I am expecting you to finish the job you started. If not, I will be disappointed in you. You can both double-cross each other." Lucifer declared.

"That's a good thing," Lucinda said with a toothy smile, breaking her fingers.

"I will leave now," Lucinda stated, trying to leave, but she couldn't move her leg.

"You can't go just yet; you haven't had fun with me yet," Lucifer stated, and he levitated her to his lap.

She landed on his leg, staring at him. She was feeling awkward.

Her body started quivering. She had started seeing him as a beast now.

"What's the matter? Do you want me to turn into a human?" He inquired.

"No, it's okay." She muttered.

"Take this." He declared, putting the cup close to her mouth. Lucinda held the cup and peeked inside. There was alcohol inside, so she sniffed it.

"But you told me not to drink alcohol." She muttered.

"I told you not to drink when you are away from me, but now you are with me." He assured her, encircling his hand around her waist, and pushed the cup to her mouth, where she closed her eyes and drank the alcohol, then immediately removed her mouth. Her tongue was sour. She gulped, swallowing the drink that burned down her throat.
