2 Weeks Later

"You asked us to come to Earth, just to not sell us your club?" Caspian asked the infuriating man in front of us.

Henrich Jacobsen; a huge mogul on earth and owner of a lot of the biggest clubs in New York. He was one of the few humans who knew of Jeradua and the other realms.

Henrich was a dick and the only reason he wasn't dead is because of his contract with Lucifer. With all of his fortune being from my father you'd think he'd be a little more courteous to us, but no.

"I'm sorry you traveled all this way," he said with a smug laugh. For the past couple of weeks, he's been hassling Caspian and me to spend more on his club than it was worth. We hadn't been budging but neither was he.

Every time we told him no, he said no as well. Today would be different though, my good luck charm was with me.

I grabbed Queen's hand and she smiled at me sweetly. A few days after Lucifer told her everything she was a mess. We stayed in bed for days and she would just cry things out.

She was better now but it took a lot of time. I would never hope to go back to those days but if I had to go through it again for her to be as happy as she was right now, I would.

After her difficult week, she started making trips to Hell so my father could teach her how to control and grow her powers. She went every other day and she would come home excited to show me everything she learned, no matter how stupid it was. Those were the moments I began looking forward to.

I kissed her hand and she gave me a seductive smile.

Henrich's eyes followed us and I heard his heart race as he looked at Queen. He loosened his tie and sat back as his eyes trailed her body. It became increasingly difficult not to kill him right then and there but I needed to rein it in...for now.

Henrich cleared his throat and turned back to me. "Why did you bring your girl here?"

I shrugged. "I thought she could talk some sense into you."

Henrich smirked and pet the gun in front of him to intimidate us and I scoffed. I don't doubt if he shot it that it would fall on deaf ears to the club goers beneath us. The music was loud enough that anything that would happen here would be unnoticeable.

Henrich turned to Queen and bit his lip. "Talk to me, sweetheart."

Queen smiled at him sweetly and crossed her legs. I watched as her short black dress rode up on her thigh and I held back my fingers that itched to adjust it. I could tell the guards in the room also had their eyes on her and it was pissing me off slowly but surely.

"I think you should sign the papers, Henrich," she suggested. "Unless you want me to be a lot less nice."

"Can you believe this shit?" He scoffed and the men around the room laughed. Caspian and I looked at one another, we both knew they would regret doubting her soon.

Queen took off her sunglasses and leaned back into her seat. I watched as the man's mouth dropped at the sight of Queen's eyes. They were the crimson color that I had grown to find addictive on her.

"I'm not an asshole like you Henrich so I'm going to give you a choice here. Call it free will." Queen shrugged. "Pick up your gun."

"No." He said as he picked up the item. When he realized what he was doing his eyes widened. He looked between the gun and Queen as he registered he no longer had control of his body.

"Kill them!" Henrich ordered his guards. They held up their weapons to shoot and I snapped my fingers. With a loud and synchronized crack, their necks twisted and they all fell to the ground.

"Now," Queen said happily as she leaned towards him. "Here's what we're going to do. You're going to fill out the papers, signing over the rights of your club to Syn and Caspian. Or you can shoot yourself."

Henrich trembled in his seat, obviously petrified by her demand and I kept my eyes on Queen. I didn't think it was possible for my feelings for her to grow more, but as she opened up to me and herself, it happened.

"You call this free will?" He spat. "You said you would give me a choice!"

"And I am," Queen shrugged with a pout and glanced at us. "You can either sign the papers or die. That's the choice."

Henrich opened his mouth to speak but Queen stopped him.

"We don't need to speak. You have 5 seconds to make a decision. If I get to zero before you sign I'll assume you want to die."

"I can't sig-"

"5."

Henrich shook his head and looked to Caspian and me for help. We looked back at him blankly. He was a shit person and he wasted our time so I didn't mind Queen's methods.

"4."

"I suggest you make a decision Henrich," I said. "She can be a lot meaner than I am."

"2."

Henrich quickly used his free hand to pick up the pen and moved to the contract.

There we go.

"And 1. I'm proud of you Henrich," Queen said as she stood up and took the contract. She turned back to Cas and me and smiled. "I'll meet you both outside."

My eyes followed her as she walked out and when she left I sighed in contentment. "That's my girl."

Caspian grinned at me and shook her head. "She's badass."

I looked back at Henrich who was crying into his hands. "Would you like to continue our meeting or...should we reschedule?"

Caspian snickered and stood up. "He looks a bit down. We'll come back."

Caspian and I walked out of the room and he turned to me. "You're really in love huh?"

"For lack of better words," I admitted.

Caspian laughed at my words and we walked out of the club and to the parking lot.

"I'll see you and Queen tomorrow," Caspian said as he into his car.

I nodded and walked to my car where Queen was leaning against the door waiting for me. She smiled up at me as she wiggled the contract in front of her. Ignoring it, I wrapped my arms around her waist and brought my lips to hers.

In the short time we've known one another, Queen had become my other half without me realizing it. I would've never thought I needed anyone before I met her. I used to think that caring for someone and putting all my entire being into them would make me weak. But with Queen, we made each other stronger, and together we were unstoppable.

She pulled away and squinted up at me with a giggle. "What was that for?"

I shrugged. "Just because."

"Hmm...you love me," she said as she flipped her hair over her shoulder.

"No...no I don't."

She raised a brow at me for a moment then nodded. "Ahhh the more than love?"

I answered her question my peppering kisses all over her face. She squealed and tried to get away but ultimately failed as I held her face in my hands.

"Go on a date with me," I said.

Queen cleared her throat and leaned her head against the driver's side door. She looked into my eyes and all around us before looking back up at me. "No."

"No?"

"It's late. I want to go home..." she said as she wrapped her arms around my neck.

"And..."

"Order a pizza..."

"And..."

She raised a brow and grinned at me. "What else is there?"

"You can try on that lingerie you bought." I teased.

"Oh? You want a show?" She asked.

"I want a show."

"Hmm. Pizza and lingerie sounds like Heaven."

Does this man think I'm fucking stupid? How many centuries have I spent trying to prove to Lucifer that I'm not an idiot? Yet here he was again doubting my intelligence by lying straight to my face.

He thought he could fake a break-up and I wouldn't know? I should've felt a surge of energy in the earth when they broke up but I felt nothing. When I dug deeper I found out Syn and Queen were on Earth...together!

They just took me for some fool. Even if I couldn't bring Adam back with Syn's broken heart, there would be other ways. I still didn't want my daughter with such evil.

So now it was his fault. Lucifer's fault that his son would be dying. I looked at him across the table as he smugly smiled at me. I didn't want to let it be known that I knew the truth but as I stared at his stupid face I couldn't help it.

"Did you think I wouldn't find out you tried to play me?!" I spat.

Lucifer rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Just give me the gun, Lilith."

"I'm not giving you shit," I seethed as I stood up. "Since you couldn't do a simple task, I'll have to take matters into my own hands. I'd write my wills if I were you two."

I quickly left the restaurant and my mind was filled with ways to destroy Lucifer. The most prominent being our current plan. It was solid and what greater pain is there than watching your child die?

"Syn why would you let me eat pizza before putting this on?" I asked as I pouted and looked at myself in the mirror.

The black lace lingerie Cleo had chosen for me was sexy but I didn't feel sexy right now. I ate almost an entire box of pizza and I was bloated like crazy. As I looked at myself more I could see that I gained weight all over and I was pissed. At Syn.

I turned to him and squinted my eyes in blame. "This is all your fault."

His eyes stopped raking my body and he looked at me. "Hmm?"

"I said...this is all your fault." I gestured to my body.

I snapped as he got distracted again and I rolled my eyes. "Eyes up here, baby," I ordered as I pointed to my face.

He sighed and crossed his arms as he looked at me with ultra focus. "What's my fault?"

"Syn, I've gained so much weight," I said with a groan.

"I don't see it," he muttered.

I looked in the mirror and pinched a large
amount of fat on my stomach and walked to Syn. "Look. Touch it!"

He looked up at me and sighed. His hand reached for where I told him to put it and he pinched me.

"Ouch!" I yelped.

"You're beautiful, Princess."

"Yeah, yeah whatever take your shirt off," I said.

"Would it make you feel better if I find fat on my body?" He asked.

I crossed my arms and looked around reluctantly. "It might." I shrugged.

Syn stood up from the edge of the bed and lifted his head above his shirt. I watched him as he touched his body for a part that wasn't muscular or toned. It felt like I waited almost 10 minutes and yet there was nothing.

"Umm..." he said slowly.

I laughed at his efforts and shook my head. I turned around to go back to the mirror and Syn came behind me. He wrapped his arms around me and I smiled at him through the reflection.

Suddenly the stomach of mine that was beginning to get on my nerves, felt strange. I held my hand over my mouth as a wave of nausea passed through my body. I ran to the restroom and straight to the toilet and puked up all the pizza I consumed tonight.

Syn rushed to my side and pulled my hair behind my head. My stomach convulsed a couple more times and I weakly leaned back against Syn when I finished.

"Queen..."

"What a fucking waste of food..." I said sadly. I stood up from the floor and walked to the sink to brush my teeth.

"Queen?"

"Hm?" I turned around to face Syn and frowned at the serious look on his face.

"When was your last period?"
