Satan knew from the start,
That weakness often comes from the heart,
That's why he always keep a look on Asmodeus,
For he knew that this demon had the most trust.
He was gullible, emotional, and dependent,
He was bad at lying, and could never pretend,
This made him the most vulnerable of the main seven,
But this rooted to something, that long ago to him had happened.
Satan may have been notorious for his wicked schemes,
But he was the one who rescued the young boy,
and raised him by all means,
He tried to strip away, all that lingers from his past,
But those soon backfired, and his advices had not long last.
He trained him to be cold, wicked, and heartless,
And yet he became this touch-starved, demon craving for happiness,
No matter what he does to form him the way he is,
Asmodeus keeps on going back, even if his training lasted years.
Satan had many successful apprentice, and yet why was Asmodeus his favorite?
Maybe because he still managed to be charming? Despite being different?
Maybe because Satan's heart melted, the first time he saw Asmo so little,
Fragile, scared and hurt, and yet trusting him as he sniffle?
He treasured that precious moment to the core,
Asmo's presence, was sure something he adored,
He loathed the angels, everything God created,
And yet the little crying boy who walked up to him,
Was an exception that cannot be hated.
Among all demons, it was fate he saw him at his lowest,
His big onyx eyes, lighting up at the help he long waited,
And to this day, Satan can recall the warm feeling,
Of the little child he carried, still quietly sobbing.
Even though it was expected for angels to be divine creatures,
For him, Asmodeus was the one most gorgeous.
He loved the little demon, and cherished him as his own,
So seeing him being played, and being left alone,
Fills Satan's soul with hatred and wrath,
That can never simply be erased or thrown.
He never really wanted Sellena for him since she came,
She was a wolf, fiery, and hard to tame,
She was harsh, and was strong on her beliefs,
That it made him feel quite anxious,
No day was a relief.
What if her strong mentality waver Asmodeus's loyalty?
Or what if she plays her along, until help comes eventually?
Satan was happy, that Asmodeus seems happy,
And yet Sellena was different from what he imagined his royal wife would be.
The negative feelings rushed back as he stare at the two,
Seemingly in comfort, as they stare at the stars,
Sellena well relaxed, in the demon's arms,
But Satan fears he was unaware, that it was all according to her plans.
(A woman with that attitude can never be trusted,
Strong-willed, and could bend the situation if they wanted,
That is why women are not to be overlooked,
If fierce enough, they could use their charm as their hook.)
The demon of wrath sighed as he watch them further,
It was also painful, since they look like a wonderful couple,
He was torn apart by letting the poor demon enjoy the fun he deserved,
Or warn Sellena, than simply observe.
The wind blew, and the romantic setting hightened,
Satan's cape also was blown a bit, and it produced a noticeable sound,
Not wanting to be caught and sighted,
He chose to leave them be for now.
...
"It's getting cold," Sellena said as she look at his eyes,
"Want to borrow my cape? Don't worry it smells nice,"
"You're really something, but I'll take it, anyways,"
"Here you go," Asmodeus put it on her,
As her own heart begin to race.
He's demon. He's a demon. He's a demon.
Don't fall for him! Come on!
Sellena tried to act poised, but she was barely holding it,
"Hey Sellena, are you sick?"
"Ah, no. I'm fine, just...fine,"
"Well, you look kinda red, do you want to rest this time?"
"Yeah, I guess that will do, I'm sorry,"
"For what?" "All of my troubles, obviously,"
"Pf, it sounds like you're beginning to like me,"
"No, I don't. That's just your little fantasy,"
"You know, I could pretty much use a kiss right now,
After all, I DID save your friend somehow,"
"Idiot, you don't force someone to kiss you,"
"Ah, and you called the Lord Asmodeus an idiot too,"
"I guess you're right though, and I owe you a lot,"
She leaned for a kiss, as Asmodeus grinned,
"That's hot,"
Sellena soon gave a face of disgust as she looked the other way,
"That was a joke, seriously, I'm sorry, okay?
Can I have my kiss now? Please?
Even if it'd last a second, just give it at least?"
Sellena soon broke into laugher seeing how desperate he seems,
But it soon turned to pity, as she remembered how he is,
She looked at him seriously, and hugged him tight,
"Hugs are better, they could be as longer as the night,"
Asmodeus felt his heart almost skip a beat,
As he felt his body recieve her heat,
He wrapped his arms around her as well,
Enjoying the moment, as he further fell.
"I really want to keep you forever now,
Maybe renew our marriage, and have a different vow?"
"You're being a child, Asmodeus, just take this hug for the meantime,
Anyways thank you, for never leaving me behind,"
Asmodeus only smiles, but soon his eyes turned gloomy,
Remembering something, a repressed part of his memory,
He panics a little, and tried to calm himself down,
But to the horrific memory, he continously drown.
"I think you're the one who's sick,
You're as cold as a brick,"
"I just remembered Lluming,
Maybe we should head back quick,"
...
Lluming wakes up covered by darkness,
As he heard the door, being unlocked,
He sat up, feeling a bit tired,
As he feels the strain from his back.
"Sellena, you've returned,"
"She's not the only one, who have,"
"Ah, you're back too,"
"You're really teasing me this time,"
Lluming continued to ignore the demon,
As he let Sellena check him up,
"You're getting better, and you'd recover soon!
Although I doubt, you'd be able to leave this room,"
"Heck, yeah I won't. Lucifer will kill me if he continue his plan,
So you need to stay here, and no more demands,
It's dangerous enough that I'm keeping an angel here,
So stay put in this room, am I being clear?"
"*sigh* Fine. I'll stay put or whatever you say,"
"But won't he get bored, Asmo?" "He's not a kid that would play,"
"But it would be unhealthy if he keeps being stuck in a room like this,
Let me take him with me sometimes, I beg of you please,"
"Sellena's right. This is torture to my mental state,
I could shift my appearance, so you'd be sure I'm no bait,"
"That's not what I'm concerned of, once anyone finds out, my head is off,
As influential as I am, once I turned away from Lucifer, I'm done,
I'd be beheaded, maybe tortured, but the endgame, I'd be gone,"
"Ah, I see. I'm sorry then, but...if that's so, I'd accompany Lluming a bit more so he won't be lonely,"
"What?! But you are my wife, and you should be mine, only!"
Lluming sighed, "How foolish you are for a prince of hell,
You've been deeply spoiled, I could tell,"
"Whatever, but you follow my commands,
This is my domain, so you just can't do whatever you want,
Your revenge mission of whatever, cancel it if you want to see another day,
I'm telling you, I'm still being considerate, so don't further bend what I have to say,"
Sellena nods slowly, as Lluming pretends to agree,
Asmodeus felt guilty, but it's the best scenario that could be,
He needs to protect Sellena, and himself from Lucifer's maltreatment,
So he needs to keep an eye on Lluming,
before his goals shifted.
...
Lluming felt disappointed that his lashing out caused him this much,
And yet he still thanked the demon's kindness, by a million lot,
He may not say it that way, but he's slowly trusting the demon,
He saved an angel, which is not very common.
Although his wounds still hurt, he could walk after a few days,
Although his wings, were still in a very bad place,
He tried to think positive, but it was frustrating to see,
How much he failed Eleazar, as he was now far from free.
Day and night he thinks of a plan,
And yet keeping everyone's safety now, as much as he can,
He knew that he could be selfish, for an angel as he,
So he began changing that, so he and Asmo, would coexist peacefully.
...
Meanwhile Ken couldn't sleep well once more,
Checking every twenty minutes, the lock on the doors,
Eventually his oddity, affected those around,
"Quit standing and making those sounds,"
Ken apologized, but he was just feeling uncomfortable,
He was anxious all the time, and calming it down made a hassle double,
He cannot trust his eyes anymore,
His dreams and reality feels barely different at all.
And yet when he saw something soft, crawling towards his direction,
He tried to know what it was,
Until Jacob sat up and rubbed his eyes,
Asking the same question.
