Mate to the lord of the underworld.

Meeting a werewolf.

I rushed to his room; I’m definitely not going to call it our room. I barged in not aware that anyone may be in, but there was a girl making the bed. I was about to apologise when she quickly ran over to me and grabbed my hands. She looked terrified!

“Please my Queen, don’t tell the King you found me in here, I beg you!”

This confused me; if she is his maid surly she was just doing her job. She called me Queen; I think Anthony addressed me as that as well. I looked into her eyes and saw genuine fear within them so I gently nodded my head and she relaxed.  She let go of my hands, smiled at me and gathered her things.

“Thank you my lady, this means a lot. I can’t mess up this job.”

“Please call me Cassie, and you were doing your job, you can’t be punished for that.”

As soon as she noticed I was completely different from Lucifer she relaxed completely. She wasn’t so proper, she started to slouch a bit and her voice changed.

“Unfortunately Cassie, I broke the rules. We are ordered to make sure that you never see us, we have to be invisible. But I mean what does he want from us! Not all of us have great powers like him almighty now do we?”

I couldn’t help but giggle at how much she changed, it was a complete transformation.  I looked at her closely, trying to figure out what she is. She was in a dress obviously, but it wasn’t like a normal maid’s uniform. She had normal features, blue eyes, wavy red hair and was a normal height. Would it be rude to ask what she was? Before that though I should get her name.

“Do you have a name then? It’s either that or I’m going to have to start calling you Red.”

“My name is Jessie, and very clever, making a reference to my red hair.”

“Was that just a bit of sarcasm in there?”

“Nooooo, never!”

I couldn’t help laughing; she is definitely going to be a good friend. I need one if I have to stay in this place.

“So, please don’t find me rude of asking, but what are you?”

She looked into my eyes, probably judging if I would take it well. I was ready though, I’ve already met my vampire best friend, a talking horse and of cause my devil kidnapper.

“I’m a werewolf.”

Now this is either a good thing or a bad thing.

“The kind in Twilight or the kind in horror movies?”

“Oh definitely the kind in Twilight, the bad ones are not allowed anywhere near the castle.”

I was suddenly relieved when she said that, I wouldn’t have to worry about her eating me.

“So why didn’t you use your amazing sense of hearing and speed to leave before I saw you?”

She suddenly looked very sad, I instantly regretted asking her something like that, was there something wrong with her?

“I haven’t transformed yet. That’s why I work here, and don’t work for my pack yet. We don’t get any powers until we transform, so I’m as good as human until I do.”

This I was pleased with, someone like me that I can talk to.

“Anyway Cassie, I must me going, the master cannot catch me in here.”

With that my new friend quickly left the room and left me alone. It’s very strange, I used to love to me alone, but now that I’m forced to be alone I hate it. Stupid Devil! I’m not sure how long I stared up at the ceiling for, but somewhere along the line I fell asleep. I woke up to the feeling of strong arms holding me; I opened my eyes and saw Lucifer pull me under the sheets. He gently lent down, placing his lips to my ear he whispered something about me getting a cold and I should worry, just to go back to sleep. I slowly started to drift back to sleep as he got in next to me and wrapped his arms around my waist. He pulled me closer and pressed his nose into my hair. I went to push some of my hair out of my face when he quickly grabbed my hand in a tight grip. He placed his nose into my palm and took a big sniff, he was smelling me! His grip tightened and I could tell he was really angry. Suddenly he was no longer beside me but on top of me, pulling my hands above my head. In this position it was impossible to move, let alone get out of it.

“You let someone other than me and Josie touch you.”

“No I didn’t!”

“DON’T YOU LIE TO ME CASSIE! I CAN SMELL HER ALL OVER YOU!”

I forgot about him being the Devil and all, I can’t hide anything from him. I might as well tell the truth, hoping Jessie wouldn’t be hurt because of it.

“She just touched my hands; it’s not that big of a deal. Plus you didn’t say I couldn’t touch anyone.”

“Well I’m saying it now, you can’t touch people unless I give you permission to! Now I have to leave, some maids do not know their place!”

He released my arms and as he was about to get of me and leave I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled his lips down to mine. Immediately he kissed back, before anything could get too heated I broke the kiss and stared up into his eyes.

“Please don’t punish her, I really like her and she is a good maid. She didn’t mean to get seen, please.”

His eyes softened as he looked at me, he heaved a sigh before muttering a quick fine and crawled back next to me. With his arms around me I couldn’t help but feel warm and safe, and with that feeling I finally fell into a deep sleep.

                                 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning when I woke up, Lucifer was nowhere in sight. I quickly had a shower and got dressed, remembering to wear a dress to please him. Each step gets me closer to braking free of this place, and now I have Jessie on my side, it will be a lot easier. Suddenly that very person ran into the room and lifted me into a huge hug. She put me down and had a huge smile on her face.

“Good morning to you to Jessie.”

“Good morning sweet sweet Cassie!”

“What has you in this great mood today?”

“Well, master Lucifer came up to me and made me sit down. At first I thought he was going to punish me, he went on at how I broke the rules and stuff like that. But then he said that however you were rather fond of me so instead he is making me your head maid!”

She said all that way too fast I nearly didn’t catch it, but I was happy! Does this mean that Lucifer actually cares for me feelings?

“So what is a head maid?”

“Well, I tend to your every need personally, whatever you want. That means we will be seeing each other nearly all the time! I will help you get dressed, make sure you eat and make sure you don’t get into any trouble.”

Great. He makes her my babysitter! At least it’s Jessie and not some freak who I don’t like. He obviously doesn’t trust be yet, but that will change.

“That reminds me! Its breakfast time!”

She quickly dragged me to the hall that I had eaten in before and to my surprise Lucifer was already there. My thoughts ran to what happened last time we ate breakfast together and I started to panic. I thought about maybe if I lie, say I wasn’t feeling well and didn’t want to eat. I didn’t eat any lunch or tea yesterday though and I’m really hungry. I looked back to find that Jessie was no longer there, and when I looked round I jumped as Lucifer was standing right in front of me. Stupid devil speed! He grabbed my hand and started to lead me to our seats. When we sat and the food was on out plates he leant over and pressed a kiss right below my ear.

“You look so beautiful in that dress. Thank you for wearing it.”

I just turned and smiled at him, I could see the lust in his eyes and knew that this breakfast was going to be exactly like the last, maybe even worse. He began to slide his hand up my thigh when A man burst into the room. Lucifer became livid.

“THIS BETTER BE GOOD ENOUGH TO INTERUPT US!”

“My Lord, he has escaped!”

With those words Lucifer became very serious. He turned to me and told me as soon as I’ve finished I must return to my chamber, he will have guards at my door. What is this thing that has escaped, how evil and dangerous must it be that even the devil himself is scared of it.
