It's been two hours since we had been moving without any of us uttering a word. Everyone seemed to be in their little battle with their minds thinking about things. Angelina was distant like Lucifer and Lucifer seemed to be in his dilemma.


"H-how far is the place?" I mumbled quietly because with their heightened senses I knew they could hear me easily. 


"Zhoutis, you mean," Rafael said as he smiled looking at me through the mirror. 


Zhoutis was a strange name but again my life wasn't normal anymore. 


"Yes, probably," I reciprocated with the same smile that he offered me. Nor Angelina nor Lucifer seemed to be fazed by what I said as they kept looking outside. Since Falcon's death, Angelina lost that carefree and bubbly nature, the excitement that always managed to make her distinct was now gone somewhere and I seemed to miss that. 

On other hand, Lucifer was hard to read. With his default stoic and angry face, I couldn't tell what was going on in his mind. He was not mourning Falcon or feeling sad about his demise. Something was bothering him and I didn't want to find out what?


"When I was in my early hundred years, I visited Zhoutis with my father and I must say, it was a sight to capture," Rafael said as a small smile curved on his lips.


"What did it look like....back then?" I found myself asking. Zhoutis must be changed over so many years.


"Beautiful,” I looked to the left to say Angelina looking at me with a smile on her lips.


"It was breathtaking back then" she breathed out as she looked at nothing she dozed off in her head may be thinking about that time.


"The gardens, the flowers, the beauty....the serenity, one could probably mistake it for heaven on Earth." She smiled at me.

"Your majesty, they've arrived." 


Kyleigh and Perseus looked at each other with concern hopping in their eyes. Suspicion and anxiousness were eating her from within. She wanted to trust the words that were written on a piece of parchment but the past was making her believe otherwise. 


"Come," Perseus said as he took Kyleigh's hand in his and they both walked out to the grand entrance together. They both stood there as they waited for the nightmare to walk in. Kyleigh was still not sure how to take in the new information but anything including her daughter was something that concerned her more. 


She turned towards the commander as she finally said.


"Where are they?" She asked with nervousness shimmering in her brown eyes. Suddenly loud footsteps echoed through the corridor as they both looked towards the door. 
The door opened and Lucifer walked in. 


"Greetings, My Lord," Lucifer nodded his head as Kyleigh and Perseus looked thunderstruck at him. The mockery in his tone made Kyleigh grit her teeth.


"We received your letter, something was mentioned regarding our daughter," Perseus said with authority as he nodded his head at Lucifer.


"Before discussing your daughter, I would like to clear some things regarding my mother," Kyleigh and Perseus couldn't understand what he was saying or why he was here along with their daughter but looking at the way Lucifer wasn't trying to kill them was quiet discomforting for them. The air around them seemed to get thick and heavy with confusion.


"I would like to see my daughter first," Kyleigh quipped as she presented her request. But Lucifer smiled charmingly as he shook his head with a slight grin on his face.


"First, I would like to discuss," he said as he looked at them. 

"Very well then, shall we?" Perseus said as he tried to even out the air around them. He lightly pulled Kyleigh as he walked towards the throne room with Lucifer on his side.


****


"When can I meet them?" I asked anxiously as I paced around the room and Angelina seemed to be quite occupied with her thoughts.


"Lucifer needs to clear some things out with your parents and till then we've to stay in this room." She said while looking around. 


My parents.


It sounded quite strange in a good way.


But again I have this question invading my mind, why was Lucifer doing all this? Bringing me to my parents?


After we arrived here, Lucifer ordered some servants to settle us in the west wing as he said. Rafael and he seemed to get vanished in thin air after that. What was cooking in his mind? I was highly unaware of that.


"Okay," I breathed out. It was getting out of my mind these days that why was I being forced into all this mess. I was ready to wait as long as Lucifer didn't end up killing my family. 


Family.


It felt good to call someone your family especially when you had a long-lost family and you were unaware of that thing for ages. 


A sudden thought came across my mind, if Lucifer believed that my father killed his mother then did Angelina believes that too? What if this was a plan of his to bring me here with him so that he could kill my parents in front of me.


Like the threatened me back in Reynes?


****


"Can we start?" Kyleigh breathed out she rubbed her temples, tried to ease her beating heart. Perseus glanced at his wife with a worried look and looked at Lucifer.


"What is it? Lord Lucifer." Perseus said as he leaned against the chair.


Lucifer twisted his mouth and sighed deeply and said what he was not prepared to say.


"Everett, you might have heard the name,” He watched as Perseus's expression changed into anger.


"The coward, who betrayed his people." Lucifer could hear the distaste in his voice as he clenched his fists.


"I don't know where to start, Perseus but, I think I do owe you an apology." Lucifer narrowed his eyes and looked at the couple in front of him. Lucifer leaned back in his chair as he clasped his hands in front of him.
