13% Devil's Little Guardian / Chapter 13: THE LITTLE BRAT

Chapter 13: THE LITTLE BRAT

"Are you sure that you are not staying back for a while?" Lucifer asked as he tried to hold onto Naomi who was looking at him with a small smile.

"I am sure so better let me go. I will come back soon if you allow me to be on time for work."

It was working, her small pleads and requests always worked on him, she was so petite which was totally impressing the dark lunatic. She was not at all innocent or dumb because she knew exactly what she was getting into and him being the main character in her life was totally using the chance. Lucifer let go off her hand and she ran out of his apartment before he could change his mind. He chuckled at her silliness before sitting back on the couch only to be startled.

"Ahh, my forking hell." He gasped, holding his chest.

"Looks like you had a lot of fun here with that little human." Selene scoffed as she picked up the panties which was on the couch with his finger tips.

"You scared me. This is not hell, you can just loosen up a bit here." He muttered while glaring back at her.

"I have no idea what is going on in your mind because whatever it is, it doesn't suit the Lucifer that I know."

"You have a lot more sides to see, and the one who had seen all that was the girl who just left now." He said pointing at the door making Selene burn in anger.

"Fine, she knows you much more than me who stayed with you in heaven, hell, and now even on earth."

Lucifer ignored her words as he walked to the counter to fix a drink for them and Selene couldn't help but break the ninja blade in her hand into pieces. Her hands were shaking as anger took over her and if she had an opportunity, she would have sliced his throat for being so ignorant toward her. He was always like that and there she was assuming that he would be that way generally, accepting him the way he presented. But she just witnessed him whining and sulking for attention from a mere human like he is another ordinary guy.

"Take the drink, you will feel better after all. You did a good job in keeping that idiot away as I asked you to."

"Like really? I obeyed you not even knowing who she is and what I have to do with her for a drink?"

"Ohh, she is Amela and she is a friend of Naomi. She is a little too annoying as far as I know and I want to keep her away from Naomi till the time I am here. She is a nuisance in between us, you know?" He shrugged while placing the drink in front of her.

"Really? This is just absurd." Selene shouted before dashing out of the apartment leaving a confused man behind.

"She definitely woke up on the wrong side of the bed." He said sipping on his drink.

.

"I will get going today. I think he will be somewhere in the city by now so that I can approach him without being too obvious." Lilah informed as she picked up her small handbag.

"You remember what I told you, right? He is stunning with his looks and personality that any girl can fall for him. He knows how to captivate souls so you should be extra careful around him." Cristian warned her.

"He is the devil and I am the angel in charge to destroy him. He can never use his silly tricks on me, Cristian. You have to trust me with this."

"I am not doubting you and I do trust you. In fact, everyone here trusts you and we are backing up for you throughout this battle. We are just a little concerned that he will use his dirty acts on you."

"I will be extra careful." She smiled at them before vanishing into thin air.

Not that far, but she landed in a big building that kind of looked like a hospital as she saw a few sick people sitting by the side. She was confused because every time, she lands next to him, it would be a totally unexpected place. The last time was an apartment where he was whining like a kid and being clingy but now, in a hospital. She looked around to find him even though, she doesn't recognize his face hoping to somehow find him with the aura.

"Of course, what was I thinking? Devil should obviously be in a hospital to pick on sick people. How cruel and cold-hearted?" She asked herself as she climbed upstairs, following her instincts.

Her eyes were wandering all over the place to figure out the unknown building but she didn't notice a man walking out of the door. He closed the door behind him and turned only to hit a random person and stumble back. Lilah gasped as she desperately tried to get a hold of something to not fall, in the process of ripping something expensive. She surely did fall down with a loud thud but a piece of fabric covered her face. Lilah needed a few seconds to process what had happened but when she regained her senses to remove the fabric and look up, there was no one.

"Uhh?" She looked around to see two or three people giving her a questionable glare for still being on the floor.

She stood up and patted her back before taking one more look around, still not finding anyone suspicious. The leather fabric in her hands was the only clue to finding who it was but it didn't seem important to her. The only thing that was troubling her was the fact, the person left without apologizing or helping her up.

"The little brat." She cursed before shoving the fabric in her bag, hoping to find the owner someday.


Chapter 14: A SMALL DEAL

"Looks like someone got railed today." Selene rolled her eyes as she watched a worn out man rush in, eyes burning in anger.

"I feel humiliated." He groaned throwing the half torn shirt to the couch.

"Taking it in the ass is not always easy, it seems. Now you know the pain?"

"I am not in the mood to laugh at your dad jokes. It was a freaking limited edition shirt from Saint Laurent and it got ripped in a jiffy."

"You are sad about your money? How did this even happen? Who took the courage to strip Lucifer, the devil, out of his shirt in earth?" Selene asked swirling her ninja blade.

"Of course, my shirt matters. I have to be perfect all the time and to bring to your kind notice, no one stripped me. I bumped into someone and she pulled my shirt to balance." he explained, changing to a new pair in hurry.

"Oh, another girl. Lucifer only attracts girls and troubles as said by someone wise which happened to be me. Are you disappointed at it?" she snickered knowing how much it would irritate the other.

"Oh, come on!! Time is up and you got to feed that little earthling now."

"Too much of a concern to an enemy. Does Lucifer own another personality on earth? The epitome of kindness and observation is coming from none other than the great King of Hell, the devil." Selene laughed out, the laugh wrapped in sarcasm.

"Just leave before I kick you out with my dear legs. I have a small deal to attend to." He gave her a pressed smile and Selene rolled her eyes before walking out, muttering random words to herself.

"Glad!" he mumbled before taking a box from under the bed and rushing out right behind.

.

"Hello Marcus, I am here with the thing you asked for."

It was a garage that was under construction, workers scattered over the building as they were bickering and having fun. Some sitting in a circle at the corner, smoking in some dried leaves and powders and two of them beating the shit out of each other which was impressive for the man in the suit. The said man, named Marcus came forward as he rubbed the grease in the back of his pants, making it turn grey.

"Look who we have here. The sponsor of our new venture and I am glad to welcome you back to our world." Marcus said keeping his hands forward.

"Ohh, hey.. hey.. hands, I am a little allergic to dust." Lucifer ironically muttered, not wanting to shake his hands with someone's greasy hand.

"I meant the box. Give it." Marcus caught up quickly making the other a little embarrassed.

"Oh sure, always hawk eyes on someone's money and that is how you are still in this place." He looked around once more, displeasement washing over his heavenly face once again.

"People like me belong here so that the people like you can rest in luxury."

"Whatever, keep this and consider the deed done. Just a reminder that you are now owing me big time and it can come around whenever it pleases me. You wouldn't have the option to say no to me then.

"Well considered. Wanna grab a roll?" Marcus asked pointing to the people in the corner.

"Looks fresh but drugs are not in my vocabulary unless someone reeks me with it." He shrugs his shoulder, running his ethereal slender fingers over his brown curls.

He walked out glaring at the man, his eyes turning red for a flash second and it sure didn't go unnoticed by Marcus who froze on spot. He never discloses his identity but at times, it becomes a necessity to let people know his truth. No one should dare mess with him and for that, two or three small tricks would be enough.

"Your agreement is sealed properly, Marcus, and I will make proper use of it when the time comes. Hope you will learn to stay within your limit soon." He smirked before getting on the back of his luxurious Bentley, immediately pulling the girl next to him for a heated kiss.

"Did he just disappear from the hospital? I can't keep running behind him like this." Kristen complained while chewing on her burger.

"Miss, anything else?" a waiter asked.

"Sure, a plate of Lucifer's flesh and bones." she hissed at herself before shaking her head as a no to the waiter.

"I told you, it is not that easy to get him in your hands. This is just the first day, so take it slow." Cristian assured while sipping his Americano.

"But, I knew where he was and only if it wasn't for that dumb little brat who pushed me down." she glared at the shirt fabric which was peeking out from her half-opened bag.

"Hey, it would have been a mistake. Let go of it instead of boring holes in that fabric."

"He didn't even help me up. Is this the human manner? If then, it is very disappointing."

"You tore his shirt and it looks damn expensive so be happy that he didn't sue you for it. And about this little nuisance, take me with you the next time." Cristian suggested.

"I don't want anyone else involved in the mess, he might recognize you." She shook her head while wiping the crumbs off her chin as the burger was done.

"You need to find a way to help me with you."

"You said Lucifer is into girls so taking you with me would end up giving him an impression that I am with you or something. If that is his weakness then I am making it my strength. I will stoop down to any level for this one thing even if it is not my agenda." she looked very desperate while saying those words.

"As you wish, Lilah but just keep in mind that you have me and everyone else if needed. You are not alone." He smiled.

"I am grateful."
