CHAPTER 47 💜48
Vanessa stared at the new transformation Lucifer went through as she tried to recite some spells to show her where Neriah was. She had a feeling that Lucifer probably kept her in the mansion.
Nathan stared at his sister and he knew exactly what she was doing and there was no way he was going to let her harm Neriah.
Killian held his sword tight as he attacked Lucifer. Something in him was against this but he will surely do anything to get Neriah.
"Attack!"Nathan yelled at the werewolves when he saw Killian fighting and they all went towards Lucifer.
"Can you handle them or I should take over?"Veer asked Frediano who scoffed.
"Let me show you how to handle bunch of fools without turning into animal. Watch and learn"Frediano said and Veer growled angrily.
With a swift of his hand, a silver sword appeared on Frediano's right hand as he smiled broadly.
"It's been a while" he said as he moved in a swift movement slashing through the necks of the warriors as blood splashed everywhere.
A smile plastered on his face as he watched them die. He knew the right places to attack all supernatural to ensure their death and he didn't waste any time in killing them.
"What a bunch of weaklings"he did flicking his tongue as he turned to see them bodies of dead warriors scattered on the floor.
Killian stood watching in awe. He had paused from attacking him when he saw him slaying the warriors and within a few minutes, a thousand men were dead. He was really Lucifer,no doubt.
"So who's next?"Frediano asked as he dusted his body.
"Don't kill all of them,leave some for me"Veer whined and Frediano chuckled.
"Fine take over now"he said as he gave control to veer.
"Bye"he greeted with a smile.
A loud growl echoed through the whole forest as a tall black wolf emerged glaring daringly at the people before him.
____
Vanessa paused her action and stared at the wolf before her and she knew it was the most powerful wolf that ever lived.
Killian unconsciously stepped back as he looked at the remaining people on his side.
People who remained were Killian,Amelia,Nathan and Vanessa. The rest were already killed.
Amelia quickly took a protective stand before Nathan as she growled at Lucifer's wolf who tilted his head at her. She didn't know why she felt like he wasn't going to harm her.

Neriah finally got the way out and she ran outside. A loud gasp left her mouth as she saw the number of dead bodies lying on the floor. She heard a growl and turned to see Lucifer's wolf glaring at her.
"Why the fuck are you outside?"she heard Lucifer's voice within her followed by a growl which she knew was from Frediano.
"To stop you from being a monster. It's my fate and I don't need you to change it for me"she replied and he snorted as she watched Veer change back to Lucifer who walked angrily towards her.
"Get back in there,Neriah. Don't be stupid"Lucifer said as he grabbed her hand harshly and she nodded negatively.
"It's my time to go so I will. You just have to wait for me"she said and Lucifer growled at her.
"You are being selfish here. How do you expect me to live without you?"asks Lucifer and Neriah pitied him.
"The same way you lived before meeting me"said Neriah and Lucifer stared at her in disbelieve.
"You want me to go back into darkness?? into my dark past?"asked Lucifer and Neriah held back her tears.
"Enough of the lovey-dovey"they heard and turned to see Vanessa walking towards them with a wicked smile.
Neriah quickly stood before Lucifer as she glared at Vanessa.
"If you are going to kill me then do it fast"Neriah said boldly and Vanessa chuckled.
"Do you think I will let you have an easy death?"asked Vanessa and Lucifer growled at her.
"Neriah!"she heard a voice call and she turned to see Nathan coming closer to her.
"Nathan!"she called out as she ran to him and hugged him. Lucifer growled in anger as he pulled her away from him while Nathan glared at him.
"What are you doing here?"asked Neriah and Nathan's face softened as he smiled at her.
"I brought people to save you,Neriah. Come home with me,you don't deserve to be with a monster"he said with a smile and Neriah stared at him in disbelieve.
So her best friend brought people to kill her Lucian??
"Why? Why Nathan?"Neriah asked and Nathan's eyes darkened.
"Because you are mine! and I want you. He snatched you away from me"Nathan yelled and Neriah could see that her best friend was going insane.
Two angry growls was let out simultaneously from Lucifer and Killian as they glared at Nathan. She wasn't his!
Vanessa chuckled as she stood between them all and sighed.
"Let's settle all this and kill the woman causing dispute"said Vanessa as she cast some spells and threw it towards Neriah.
Suddenly a white light shined sending the spell back to Vanessa who quickly dodged it and the spell hit a tree. The tree went dry immediately and Neriah gasped in horror at the thought that it would have been her fate.
"Am sorry I came late"Eliana said as she approached them and they all turned to her.
She scrunched her nose in disgust as she stared at the bodies on the floor. Seems like her son had already wrecked chaos.
Lucifer stared at his mother as he sighed in relief. He knew she was the one that saved Neriah just now. He couldn't move an inch so he was sure Vanessa had him rooted to the spot.
"My poor Neriah"Eliana said as she cupped Neriah's cheeks. A tear dropped down her eyes but she knew she couldn't stop it.
Neriah stared at Eliana and for once she felt that Eliana truly cared for her.
"So you want to kill her, right? You want Lucifer??"Elaina said as she took dangerous steps towards Vanessa.
Vanessa cowered back in fear,she wasn't a fool to stand against Eliana,a powerful werewolf and also a witch.
"Why don't I make you look more presentable?"Eliana asked wickedly as she directed a fireball towards Vanessa and it burnt her left eye creating a scar.
Vanessa cried out in pain as she fell to the floor and Nathan didn't even move an inch. He planned on killing her anyways.
Amelia could only watch the whole drama unfold before her. Her major priority was to save Nathan and nothing else.
Killian stood looking at Neriah. He could feel she wasn't his mate but what was this connection?
"So which one of you is next?"asked Eliana as she turned towards Nathan who stared at her angrily.
"I don't want any trouble,Eliana. Give me what's mine and I would be gone"said Nathan and Eliana scoffed.
"Okay,I will"said Elisha as she threw a magical dagger straight into Nathan's chest.
Nathan growled in sorrow as he fell to his knees. Neriah couldn't stop herself from running to him at the same time Amelia too.
Nathan stared at Neriah sadly and smiled.
"I love you and I will be back for you"he said as life slipped out of him.
Amelia screamed in pain as she held her chest falling to the floor. She just lost her second-half so she had to go through pain. Her veins popped out as she cried out loudly while Eliana just watched her.
"You had the wrong choice of mate this life but you will be compensated with another"Eliana said to Amelia as she turned to Neriah who was glaring at her.
"It was best he died or else he will be trouble for you in your next life"she said and Neriah growled angrily.
"Why are you here and just passing judgments to everyone?"asked Neriah and Eliana smiled before transforming into a beautiful woman with long white hair.
"Am Bella, the moon goddess's messenger. And am told to come and settle everything for your next life. Kill who is meant to be killed and preserve who is meant to live"she said and Lucifer growled. He couldn't still move from where he was.
He had a feeling that it wasn't about Vanessa's spell anymore. Maybe this Bella did something to him.
"Oh,Lucifer,I had to pin you down so you wouldn't interfere with fate. It's dangerous besides Eliana is safe where she is. I did nothing to her."said Bella as she walked towards Killian who quickly drew his sword.
"Calm down,dragon. I won't kill you. You still have to live for the next two lifetimes. Your mate is waiting for you there"she said and Killian's hands shook.
She knew his secret. But why was his mate not in this lifetime or the next? Two fucking lifetimes?? What if he died before then?
Suddenly the sky darkened just like the day Lucifer was born but it was a little different as fire arrows started falling from the sky.
Lucifer furrowed his eyebrows in realization. The demons were here!
"It's time!"Bella said as she disappeared into thin air and men dressed in black came out from the surrounding bushes.
They began shooting arrows towards Lucifer who was quick to pull Neriah behind him as he tried dodging them.
"I will hold them here. Take her to safety first"Killian said to Lucifer who nodded pulling Amelia along with Neriah into the forest.
Amelia ran lifelessly with them. She had nothing to live for anymore so she didn't care if she died.
They got to a dead end and Lucifer looked down to see a river under. He turned and saw that the demons already caught up with them and were laughing wickedly at them.
"Jump"he said to Neriah and Amelia.
Amelia stared at him and she knew she would be stupid to wait. She will only be a burden to him if she stayed.
"I will never forget you. I will be back to see you" Amelia said as she jumped while Neriah stayed.
"Fucking jump,moonshine"Lucifer growled but Neriah nodded negatively.
She was a bad swimmer so either ways she was going to die. It was really fate and she felt sad. All of these should have happened when she had no reason to live not now when she fell in love.
"I love you,Lucian"she said as she shielded him with her body taking in all the arrows shot at him.
