*The underworld*
"Make arrangements" he breathed " l need to renew my life source.
Lucifer knew that he had passed his limit, and right now he was thirsty for blood to renew his mortal body. His wounds were now taking time to heal and he was bleeding profusely, even when he lack blood. He lock drained and very pale, and he knew that if he didn't act fast then his mortal body would perish and he would have posses some other mortal to be with his Sheba. The thought of him using someone else's hand to touch his Sheba irritated him , and he wouldn't want that.
He was still in thoughts, when Hal appeared with word. " my lord, your bathe is ready". Lucifer just nodded and teleported himself to the bathroom. It was a pool filled with fresh blood. The scent of blood everywhere made him eager to jump into the pool. He stripped himself and went in slowly because he was took weak to rush things.
Immediately he entered the pool, he let himself sink. He wanted to enjoy every bit of the blood's odour, taste and refreshment.
Usually, this process take his just twelve hours. But this time, he dwelt in the dept of the pool not knowing how long he would stay, his mortal body was just too weak so he couldn't decide. How ever, his soul never left the side of his Sheba as she slept peacefully.
*the hut*
Khalan woke up feeling a very terrible headache. She kept on blinking her emerald orbs till they adjusted to the light. She opened her eyes fully and stretched herself with a yawn. She frove halfway through the stretch as she found out that she was almost naked.
"Aaaaaaaah" she screamed, wrapping the bedding around her chest. She was wearing just her chest coverage and underneath skirt. She wondered why she was wearing just that and what happened to her dress. As if her eyes were seeking for answers, they darted around the room till they met familiar pieces of clothing on the floor. She stooped low to it and picked them up raising them one after the other. She couldn't believe her eyes, she had been raped.
"Oh my goodness, how did this happen, who did this to me?! " she yell as she was already crying her eyes out. She couldn't believe that her chasity was no more who could have done this to her and where was Nathan?. She stood up immediately, still crying with tears in her eyes flowing non stop. She ran to Nathan's room but he wasn't there, she went outside but he still was no where to be found. Then it dawned on her, 'what if the evil and ruthless people outside the barrier had taken him and raped her as well, what if they will still come back to take her '. As these thoughts ran through her mind, she felt like she was going mad. Her cries increased and her pain doubled, even her hatred towards the villagers outside the barrier heightened. She sat on the bare soil, with the bedding wrapped around her chest as she was still crying, stomping her feet on the ground as a child. She felt so much pain and frustration at the moment.
"Nathan where are you? Nathan! My chasity has been taken, this evil people have taken you and my chasity away from me. Nathan please come back to me, come back!! " she kept crying and yelling, not knowing what else to do as her headache increased and she began to feel dizzy.
She was still weak from everything that happened the day before, which she obviously couldn't remember. Her body needed enough rest and her cries just made matters worst. She continued crying till she finally fell asleep on the bare soil, not having the energy or strength to go inside and lay on her bed.
* An hour ago*
Lucifer's soul stood by the bed side watching over his Sheba, his body was still getting renewed in the pool of blood. He kept staring intently at her still she moved. He sensed she was waking up and truly, she was. She blinked her eyes for a few times before adjusting to the light. She was stretching herself and yawning loudly before she stopped abruptly. Lucifer wanted to laugh at the sight but he couldn't without his mortal body.
He looked closely and saw that she was staring at her body and he read her thoughts immediately, hoping she wouldn't think the worst of what she was wearing. Unexpectedly, she let out a loud scream. Lucifer was hoping that she wouldn't jump into conclusion already because even though he knew what really happened, he couldn't say for the fact that she couldn't neither see, hear nor feel him.
Though Sheba would but she was not awake yet so powerless and weak khalan couldn't see him, nor feel him so she can't know the truth at that particular time Well, she didn't think the worst at that time though. But when she set her eyes on her torn clothes on the floor, she couldn't believe her eyes. She picked them up one after the other as she examined them closely before letting out a cry, a very sad one at that " oh my goodness, how did this happen? Who did this to me? " she asked rhetorically.
Lucifer was helpless, she now thinks the one thing he had really wished she didn't. She now believes she had been raped and her chasity taken away from her.
He felt like was loosing it as he listened to her cry for no reason. Immediately, he teleported himself to his underworld kingdom, were his body was. He had to go back and stop his Sheba from crying. And in order to do this, he needed his mortal flesh.
"Hal! " he called on his arrival
"Yes my lord" Hal answered with a full bow.
"Is my flesh ready? " he asked with a serious tone.
"My lord" Hal bowed before replying. " it can worn at the moment but its not fully energized" he said, choosing his words very carefully, so as not to offend his lord.
"How many hours has it been under process? " Lucifer asked, sounding impatient.
"Thirteen my lord" Hal answered, in the most polite manner.
" how much more time do you need to finish up" he asked again, calmer than before.
"Eleven more hours, my lord" Hal answered keeping his head low.
Lucifer couldn't believe what he was hearing. So his body needed a full day to get refreshed. How was his Sheba going to cope with out seeing him for a full day. She was already thinking that he was kidnapped and crying her eyes for him.
How was he going to explain to her that she wasn't raped and that it was just a misunderstanding. He weighed his options, whether to go back and with his incompletely renewed flesh or to go back and watch over her with just his soul. Finally he decided to wait till after Eleven more hours before he could see his Sheba.
Lucifer understood how weak his mortal body was and knew that even if he took it with him that way to meet his Sheba, it would absolutely be of no use, due to how weak his flesh was. Therefore, he settled for option b. Immediately, he teleported back to the hut and found her lying down on the bare soil, still wrapped with the bedding.
She was asleep. Finally, she won't have to cry herself out for no reason. He just manipulated the soil around her and it became soft so that she can feel the least comfortable, since he couldn't touch her, because she was in mortal flesh and he wasn't.
