Third POV

The sound of melodious rhythm filled the air, the gentle breeze sending the notes across the celestial realm. Many angels gathered around to hear the infamous musician. Her eyes closed, body rocking to the notes as she played her violin. Her fingers effortlessly moved from string to string, the bow following along quite easily. Zara, her name was. The creator specifically made her to entertain and awe the residents of the celestial realm. Almost every day, on the clock, she took front stage in front of the castle. The song came to an end, the last vibratto lasting several seconds before it died down until silence took over. Soon after, the familiar sound of applause roared through the crowd. A bright smile appeared, bowing down to the captive audience. "Everyday, I live to please. This is all for today, but please do visit tomorrow. I shall have another song prepared for you all." Her eyes opened, her bright green eyes reflecting the joy she felt. The crowd soon dispersed before she descended the stairs. Her eyes locked onto a familiar face. A soft chuckle escaped her noticing the girl become flustered.

"I'm sorry!" The young messenger blushed in embarrassment. I solely wanted to watch your performance! I have heard so many good things and I-" She tried to explain herself but was cut off by Zara's finger to her lips.

"Do not fret.." She laughed softly, a hand over her heart in amusement. "I know well you are suppose to be making deliveries, but I will not tell you took a small detour. I am so glad you enjoyed my performance." The young girl's eyes seemed to sparkle in appreciation of the musician.

"-! Thank you!" She sighed in relief, blushing once more when Zara patted her head. "H-hey! I am not a child!"

"You are to me.." Zara responded with a low chuckle. "Now, run along and finish your duties. I would love to spend more time with you." The girl smiled wide, wings fluttering.

"Okay!" With those words in mind, she flew off to complete her duties. Zara only shook her head with a smile, heading towards her home though stopped and was quick to kneel to her Superior, Lucifer. He was well known for being the most beautiful angel and Michael's favorite.

"Aha. I thought I told you not to do such formalities..." Lucifer said with a lighthearted smirk.

"Yes, but it is customary, is it not?" She asked before standing up with the help of his hand.

"But am I not a friend? No need to do such things in my presence." He responded.

"Friends?" She raised a brow, walking beside him. "I never realized you considered me that way. Oh, so noble Lucifer." She taunted, trying her best not to show a smirk. In return, Lucifer let out a soft laugh.

"You are something else Zara. Many fear to talk to me just because of my ranking, yet you do freely speak your mind around me."

"Well, I feel comfortable around you. But I still will show my respects. I know my place. I am well loved, but that's different. Especially when it comes to my rank in this realm."

"Rank." Lucifer seemed to dwell on the word. "I was once quite fascinated on it. But perhaps you showed me some humility. Such a talented individual yet you never flaunt it. I admire that."

"Mm." She nodded her head and blushed a bit at the small praise, continuing to walk by his side. They kept walking in peaceful silence before she spoke again. "As much as I love these talks Lucifer... I know well when something is on your mind. You may vent to me."

"You see right through me... Don't you?" He asked rhetorically before continuing. "Lilith... She and Belphegor keep escaping to visit the human realm."

"And that's a problem?" She questioned.

"With my... Father, yes." He stated and kept walking, voice lowering. "I have a grave feeling something may occur because of it. No matter how much I reprimand both, neither listen. What am I to do?" Once again, silence befell the two, Zara seeming to think, weighing the options.
