"Well, what can I say. It's your choice, son. But be careful, you know what would happen if Lucifer will come to know about this." Perseus pulled away and ran his hand through his hair. He was worried about his son and his daughter. Cassian's affection towards Angie was something he was well aware of but Sarah getting abducted by Draven was something that made him worried. 

Cassian sighed deeply as his mind drifted back to the morning when he got a call from Angie. She was panicking and crying, saying 'Sarah is in danger! Draven took her!'. It took everything in him to not broke down hearing her shattered voice. He knew Angie had a husband and daughter, and he also knew that she was far older than him but he could control his heart. 

"And what about mother? Should we tell her?" Cassian asked with strain in his voice. 

"She deserves to know, Cassian. I will tell her myself," Perseus said and nodded his head towards his in and walked out of the room.

"Come on, Luc,” Her hair flowed with the wind as she ran towards the lake. Her hands were clutching her gown so that she wouldn't trip. Her laughs were filling in the whole garden.

"Stop, Melissa. You'll fall," He said worriedly as he tries to catch her but she didn't stop. He knew how much she liked to get chased and that's what he had been doing, chasing her. He halted in his steps as he watched her laughing and smiling with little children.

"Beautiful, isn't she?" He looked to his left and sighed deeply.

"Indeed, she is,” he whispered as his eyes trailed along her face. Her striking blue eyes looked back at him with an intensity that could melt his heart. 

"When are you going to tell her?" Lucifer said as he looked at his friend. He searched his eyes for any answers but didn't get anything.

"I don't know, I don't think she will ever accept me," His voice shattered at the end. Lucifer looked carefully at his friend as his heart clenched with an unknown feeling.

"She likes you, my friend. She just don't know how to express it,” Lucifer's eyes scanned the garden as his eyes landed on the beauty standing in middle. Her laughs, her giggles send his heart on a blissful edge. He gulped down as he glance at his friend, who was also looking at her with the same intensity.

"She loves you, Lucifer. I can see that, the way she smiles when you are around her. The way her eyes brighten whenever you look at her, I can see it," He said as he watched her coming towards them. Lucifer averted his eyes from her face as he felt his friend backing away.

"You are a very bad chaser, Draven,” She giggled as she punched him on his shoulder playfully. Draven smiled brightly while Lucifer looked at both of them with emotion he was not ready to feel.

"What's wrong, Luc? You seem....distracted," She asked as she interlocked her arms with Draven. Her long raven hairs flowed with the wind as her mesmerizing blue eyes looked up at him.

"Come in, Melissa. Your mother is calling for you!" The maid called from inside the castle.

She nodded and smiled at two gentlemen and ran towards the castle. Lucifer kept looking at her till she entered the door. Draven rubbed Lucifer's back as he glanced at him. 

"You are in love, Lucifer...It's obvious"

Lucifer looked at the painting as he drank liquor from his glass. His mind drifted back to the past as he looked at the painting. The blue striking eyes looked back at him but the only difference was that they were in a painting, a painting of her, his Melissa. 

The white dress looked serene on her and her long raven hairs were trapping his heart. His eyes didn't wander from her face as he kept looking at pictures.
