"Ah Lucifer!"
A grey hair main, wiping the counter in the inn exclaimed happily immediately he look up and saw Lucifer, standing in a corner and looking around the place.
His gaze fixed on a red hair beauty..
"George.."
Lucifer called, strolling towards him, with his long legs..
His hands are tucked in his trouser pockets, as he approached the old man..
"To what do i owe this August visit?"
The man named George asked with a grin, causing Lucifer to roll his eyes.
"Gin."
He ordered and the man immediately poured it for him in a clean glass and handed it back to him..
Taking a huge gulp from the drink, he set the glass on top of the counter.
"I'm here for business."
Lucifer uttered, coldly.
"Oh! The usual.
And I thought you are here, to pay poor old me, a visit.."
The main said..
"You wished.."
Lucifer, replied scoffing..
"Oh! I'm heart broken!"
George exclaimed, holding his chest, with his hand dramatically.
"George cut the jokes.
I'm not here, for plays.."
Lucifer ordered, in a cold voice..
"Yeah! We should get down to business quickly.."
The man said..
"My stupid brain..
Why did I forgot that he is a cold hearted man that doesn't joke.."
George muttered, to himself..
Hitting his hand on his head, continuously..
While Lucifer, narrowed his gaze at him..
Grabbing his drink on the counter and downing it all..
"More.."
He ordered, dropping the glass on the counter and the man quickly filled it up for him with delay..
"Where is that funny young lad that always accompany you here?"
George questioned, looking around the Inn, to see if he will catch sight of the jovial boy..
"Andrea?
I turned him to a cat.."
Lucifer responded emotional ess, causing the man to spill the bottle of rum that he is pouring into a cup for a customer.
"You did what?"
He whispered, leaning his ears closer to Lucifer.
"You heard me right.
I don't like repeating myself.."
Lucifer uttered, gulping down the glass of gin, on his hand..
"Bu-t h-e is yo-ur friend.."
George stuttered..
"Brother..
I don't have friends.."
He corrected bluntly.
"Then what are we?"
The old man said with a pout.
"Acquaintance.."
He replied truthfully, making the man to frown but quickly cover it up with a smile, that didn't reach his eyes..
Of course Lucifer noticed the changed in the man countenance but he didn't care..
"Wait! The lad is your brother?"
The old man questioned in surprise as what he said finally dawned on him..
"Yeah! Any problem with that?"
Lucifer asked with a raised eyebrow..
"You both are so much different.."
The man started..
"He is funny, Jovial, playful and cute..
While you are---"
"Cold, mean, and heartless.."
Lucifer completed for him with a smirk..
Causing the man to stare at him in horror.
"That is not what I was planning to say.."
He lied, blushing at being caught red handed..
"Oh! Spare me that bullshit speech..
I can see through your lies.."
Lucifer uttered, drowning his glass of gin in a gulp.
"More.."
He requested, causing the man to stare at him strangely.
"I think you should minimize the amount of drinks that you take to avoid getting drunk..
As here is a dangerous place, filled with evil people..
You might get hurt. "
George uttered, with concern.
"Devils don't get drunk, neither do they get hurt..
So keep your damn advice to yourself..
I'm f*cking off for fun.."
Lucifer replied, dropping lots of cash on the counter, and snatched the bottle of gin from the old man hand, walking away, towards the red hair girl table..
His next prey..
"That little wizard..
He didn't know that he is not the only supernatural being here.
There are lots of others, who are evil..
Who knows, even the devil might be here.."
The old man said, shuddering at the thought of Lucifer paying his Inn a visit.
Unknown to him, he have already met the very own devil but didn't know as Lucifer introduced himself to him, as Luciano a wizard from the land of Oal.
"Although I won't deny the fact that he looks very dangerous.
With a powerful aura too, like a king or something.
But he tips well.."
George said happily, staring at the stash of cash and greedily packed them into his waist bag.
"Need a bottle of rum.."
A young smallish man, uttered sitting on a stool that is Infront of the counter, distracting him from watching Lucifer..
"Sure Elfie.."
He said happily, dropping a bottle of rum in his front.
Ignoring the Elf man snarl of displeasure at his choice of name for him..
Serving other supernatural customers and ignorant humans, whistling happily.
"Mind if I join you?"
Lucifer asked the red hair girl, sitting alone at a round small table..
Looking lost, in the crowd..
"Huh me?"
She asked in surprise, staring up to see the owner of the voice..
"What!"
She gasp in shock at the handsome face that she is seeing..
So far, he is the most handsome guy on earth that she have ever seen, in all her 28, years of existence.
He looks like a Greek god, no a demi god..
"Is anything wrong with my face miss?"
Lucifer asked innocently, smiling happily at her..
"Mm-mm n-o.."
She stuttered, blushing crimson red at being caught red handed drooling.
"Please sit.."
She offered, gesturing at the sit close to her with trembling hands.
Wondering why a handsome man like him, could be interested in her..
When others have been ignoring her.
Suddenly she felt self conscious.
Without waiting for a second invitation, Lucifer sat down, smirking.
"What is your name, beautiful?"
He asked the girl, pretending not to know.
Just the few minutes he have stared at her.
He have succeeded in poking into her mind and finding out literally everything about her..
She is an orphan with few unfaithful friends..
And it's good for him.
As no one will care if she suddenly vanished from earth or try searching for her.
Not like they will succeed or survive if they ever tried to do so..
But he is taking precaution measure, to avoid the news of a predator out for preys, spreading everywhere..
"Lucy.."
The red hair girl muttered shyly, replying to his question and distracting him from his thoughts..
"Lucy.."
He tasted it on his tongue, causing her to shiver in delight..
And a wide smirk to appeared on the corner of his lips..
Of course he knows the effect that he have on her..
Leaning down towards her, while she stared at him in shock, thinking that he was about to kiss her, as she immediately closed her eyes..
Waiting for the kiss, causing him to shake his head, and whispered with a smirk ;
"Your name is beautiful and unique like you.."
"Such an easy prey.."
Lucifer soliloquy..
"Thank you.."
She stammered, responding to his compliment.
A bit disappointed that he didn't kiss her, like she was expecting.
"Can you tell me about yourself Lucy?"
He asked, to get the pretty girl to loosen up and stop being shy.
Putting his right hand on top of hers, and she gasps as tiny sparks erupts..
And she felt butter fly's dancing in her stomach and her heart started beating fast..
"Yes of course."
She said and start blabbering about herself, while he pretended to listen with rapt attention.
One minute into the conversation, his ears start aching from listening to her boring story.
"Lawd! Can she f*cking pity my poor ears, from her torturous speech and shut the f*ck up.."
He muttered to himself, groaning inwardly..
"Or should I make her mute?"
He wondered.
Zoning out of the conversation..
Thinking about his main mission..
TBC ...
