Chereads / DEVIL'S OBSESSION / Chapter 8 - Cole Reyes

Chapter 8 - Cole Reyes

{ Lucifer's Pov }

Before Lucifer could react to the lady's sudden decision to take leave to the dancefloor, Kehlani had sprung shakily to her feet and made direction to take the stairs. Lucifer made no utterance but watched as she hurried down the stairs. Her imagery soon appeared in the space below, Lucifer could see her twirl her way into the circular partition. He watched with close scrutiny as her glossy hair danced in the air. When her hands were raised and the blue lights illuminated her face, Lucifer couldn't fight the urge to get a closer look at her. And so he initiated his spirit eye, as though sending a visceral vision from above, where he majestically sat, he began to examine her face. What made his observation more enchanting and interesting was the fact that he termed Kehlani Simpson as angelic looking. 

He monitored and took to memory deep sendoffs from not just her face but her entire body. The way her eyes reacted to the lighting, the way they subconsciously positioned themselves as a result of the sound. He focused on her hips also, how her slender and light legs were able to make hard stance on the floor, how she smiled and moved her hands in a billowy manner. Kehlani had inputted a mixture of fragile and mustful dancing, the one thing he picked up was that she didn't care how she appeared. 

Lucifer was still in the act of staring at the woman when his body began to commence something only he knew and called deep sensual reaction. When DSR showed his face, Lucifer immediately drew back the spiritual eyes he had on Kehlani. His reasons being that DSR was indeed its name, It was stage where he got so intensely focused on a prize that his hormones permitted a constraint that sweetened his insides down to his outer membrane. DSR stretched to his entire epidermis, sometimes covering his eyes. The reaction caused him great tender that he sometimes forgot himself at the spot for hours. He stationed back to his solo business, away from Kehlani. 

" How long are we going to be here? " Agra growled.

" Tell me you're not having a good time. " Lucifer poured himself another drink, he'd lost count how much he'd taken.

" Permit me inform you about a possible shit-uation? " 

" I presume its a bad one, tell me, I'm getting bored already. " 

" Take Saturn girl home and make fun already. " 

" I will, " Lucifer arched a brow drowning himself in a brief memory of the possible future of fun with Kehlani, " About the shit-uation Agra? " 

" Storm. " Agra replied plainly. 

" Fucking hell, " 

" She'll come for you soon. " 

" I will kill her for real. "

" So you have said a million times, maybe obey your father and marry her. " 

" Not on hell's walls, and after what she did to me, storm will bleed. " 

Agra eyes quickly perched at another location. 

" What? " Lucifer noticed. 

" Saturn girl just found a male fancy. " 

Lucifer's heart stung the instant he saw Kehlani hugging male figure. He didn't calculate before sending down his eyes to the ground floor and meeting with Kehlani's male company. He immediately took in notes about the man. First off, he was on a low-cut hair, the man possessed waves on his hair that Lucifer knew was sure to sweep any black woman off her feet. The lining was something equal to perfection, Lucifer was tempted to loose his beautiful strands. 

He was a Black man, average height and beady eyed. The guy had on casual blue jeans and a white jersey with Tupac Shakur on the back and front. Either he was a football player, or a novice rapper. The guy had dimples, same with Kehlani, his melanine was smooth and shinning. Lucifer went low to inquire what shoes he had on, they were brown sneakers from Steve Madden. The guy was handsome, he wasn't as rich as him obviously, but he wasn't broke. Perhaps he was the bloke that Kehlani waited for all night, Lucifer wished the man hadn't followed her to Honduras. 

***********

" Cole Reyes? " Kehlani in her drunken state could recognize her former lover of seven years. 

Cole was lost staring into Kehlani eyes, " K, I can't believe its you in the flesh, it has to be a twin or something. " 

Kehlani was able to hold in laughter, but she did titter, " I wish I had a twin, I would not work… " Yeap, she needed cold water and no more alcohol. 

" You're high, you need to sit. " Cole took Kehlani by the waist and led her to the bar area to sit. 

Kehlani pushed hed fringe up in a messy comfort, " Cole Reyes, " 

" Kehlani Simpson, " He followed. 

" You're in LA, " Her tone was dropping from hyper to particular. 

" Came in last month. " 

" Oh, are you going back? " Kehlani was slow to realise that she should hate the fact that she cared. 

" Um… " Cole tapped his fingers on the table. Lucifer, being present in their midst in hearing termed Cole Reyes a rapper. 

" I don't know, but seeing you might definitely change things K. " 

Kehlani laughed softly, " Cole, it's nice seeing you. " 

" Can I get your number? " Cole asked. 

Lucifer made sure to keep a close detect on Kehlani's reaction as her company spoke to her, it was more than evident that she had emotional connection with the man, and he with her. Lucifer was interested in the story behind the two and where they presently stood. 

" Way to ruin your plans boss. " Agra said.

Lucifer gestured for Agra to keep shut and she did. He went back to eavesdropping. 

" Can we talk good tonight, I have a lot to tell you. " 

Kehlani sighed, " I never expected to see you again Cole, if I wasn't high as fuck right now I would have gotten a heart attack. " 

Cole drew his hand over to hers and took it, " Can we talk? Maybe not here, somewhere else? " 

" Yeah sure. " 

Lucifer deemed close to Kehlani, brows furrowed, his eyes almost entering hers as he felt belittled and disrespected. 

" Oh no, " Agra entered without response, " She forgot that you exist. " 

" Agra shut it. " Lucifer was itching to kill, he watched, hoping that somehow someone saved their lives. 

Cole led Kehlani to the doorway. 

" Holy fuck I forgot, " She shielded her mouth with her palm, " I'm here with someone. " 

Cole wore a disappointing look, " Is he your… "

" No way… he's someone I just met. " She glanced up, " Maybe some other time? " 

" Of course, I'll call you. " 

Kehlani made way back to her stay, " Bye Cole, say hi to Alice for me. " She departed, not looking back to see Cole leave or stay. 

" Done dancing? " Lucifer asked with leg's crossed as he saw her.

" Yeah, " She fell to the chair, " Can you give me a ride home? " 

Lucifer arose without refuse, " Let me help you up. " 

Kehlani accepted help from the handsome stranger, with her mind now clouded with thoughts of Cole Reyes, it made her body heavier to lift. 

" Thanks. " She told him. 

The two made way down the stairs. 

Agra, seeing Kehlani's purse reached her master, " She forgot her satchel. " 

Lucifer refused smile to not assume a mediocre sinister, " Leave it be Agra. " 

Agra squinted behind, " Weird. "
