Elijah

I slowly tried to open my eyes as warm rays of sunshine hit my face. I groaned as I turned my back towards the window and nuzzled my face in the pillow.

A rather hard pillow.

I quickly opened my eyes as my bare chest blocked my view. Too afraid to look at him, I gulped down my nervousness and slowly tried to turn around. But he was not happy with my decision as he smacked his arm around my waist walling me in his embrace. A sudden realization drew upon me; we were naked underneath. After the wild night, I had with him, moaning and growling in pleasure, that he rewarded me with, I was too embarrassed to show my face. 

He nuzzled his face in my hair as he breathed in my scent and caressed my waist with his other hand.

"You should sleep naked more often," Lucifer whispered in my ears as I felt myself getting flushed all over. If last night wasn't filled with embarrassment then he was making sure my day started with his dirty and snarky comments.

I felt his lips on my shoulder as he possessively squeezed my naked body. I was not ready for his morning pleasure after what he did to me last night. 

The knock on the door startled me as I hear him groan in annoyance. I felt relieved as he get up from the bed before muttering curses as he opened the door.

Like hell! He answered the door naked!

"What?!" He said irritably. 

"Apologies, my lord. May we have a word with you? It's rather urgent." One of the guards asked from outside. Lucifer grunted before turning around and picking his pants from the floor and walking away before zipping them up.

I quickly get up and rushed to the bathroom. After taking shower and getting dressed, I waited for someone to come to me....probably Lucifer.

Because I wanted to know when would I be allowed to roam around the library. I looked around the room as a thought crippled my senses. Maybe I could find something here in this room. I never explored it but now I could.
I cautiously move around thinking about where to start. My eye landed on the drawer beside the bed and the need to explore ated me. I walked toward the drawer before opening the cabinets.

Papers.

A strange-looking watch.

And a strange-looking ring. 

Nothing more. I ruffled through other cabinets but didn't get what I needed. There was a limited amount of papers written in foreign languages. 

My eyes widened as I heard footsteps. My body tensed up as the door opened and Lucifer stepped inside wearing his previous pants. 

"What are you doing?" Blood drained from my body as I breathed out. 

"I....was...looking for....my...clip..." 

Clip? Seriously?

He raised a curious brow before tilting his head as he walked toward me. My breathing caught as I looked at him. I knew he could sense my fear and anxiousness.

I closed my eyes tightly as he raised his hand. I felt him ruffling my hair as he plucked something out of there. 

"Here it is." He mumbled and I opened my eyes immediately. I looked at his hand on which a black hair clip was resting. I breathed out heavily as I tried to calm myself down.

"Oh...there it is....how silly of me," I whispered as I snatched the clip from his hand before securing it on my head.
He smirked as he turned around to walk towards the closet door. 

I sigh heavily as I thanked the heavens for saving me from this savage monster. 

I heard his footsteps as he walked inside the room buttoning his shirt. He walked towards me as he looked expectantly at me. 

"Come with me...I want to show you something." He said smoothly.

I looked at him curiously.

****

His grip on my hand was as tight as he led me through awfully familiar hallways. I bunched up my dress in my other hand to not trip over myself. 

"Don't make me regret it." He said and I looked confused at him as he stopped in front of familiar wooden doors. He let go of my hand as he opened the door. My eyes enlarged as I looked inside. I stepped aside from the room and looked at the massive bookshelves. 

It was not like I had seen earlier, it was cleaner and more spacious than what it was before. Shelves were filled with books as every shelf had its nameplate indicating what these books were about. 

"You will find every book here....but..." I looked at him to find him already looking at me. 

"Anyways, I hope this pleases you...." I swallowed hard as I looked around at all the beautiful flowers and paintings that decorated the room. He looked distantly at me before turning around to leave. 

"Thank you," I said.

He stopped and slowly turned to look at me. I looked into his sharp blue eyes before averting my gaze. He curtly nodded his head before storming out. 

I sighed before turning around to gaze at the beauty of the library. Alatar was not there and I was thankful for that. I wanted to investigate alone.

"Where to start?" I mumbled before looking at dozens of books laying elegantly on the shelves. My eyes landed on the wooden slate which read;

Wars Of Werewolves.

Not my cup of tea.

I moved further as I traced another slate with my fingers.

"Chronicles of Reynes." I read out the words that were written on the slate. 

I scanned every slate.

Descendants of Moon.

The curse.

Slaves of Sun.

10th-century shapeshifters.

Finally, I read out the words I was finding.

"History," I whispered as a smile curved on my lips. I quickly rushed towards the shelf but halted as I saw the number of books it contained.

There were probably more than a hundred books and I didn't have that much time to read all of them. I had to choose wisely.
