Rama's attention was suddenly averted on Lucifer when she saw him moving toward them with slow, elegant strides. Every movement of his was ensnared with darkness and pride swirling around his silhouette as his black robe billowed behind them with the air of menace.
Rama swallowed her tears back as she surveyed him with keen eyes while pulling Malika behind her, but she stood her ground beside her, refusing to hide behind her like a shield.
"You should have accepted my offer, Malika and then things wouldn't have ended this way. You would have had a chance to be happy." Lucifer's voice bellowed softly as he stood at arm's length away from them.
"Get away from her!" Rama yelled as she forcefully shoved Malika behind her.
