Her Fear

Author Pov

Catelin walked back and forth in her room in anxiety. There was no news of Lucifer. She was dreading the possibility of him doing something extreme in his anger.

She was afraid of her only fear coming true. Her fear of him losing the last string of his sanity. What if he ended up giving up on his last sane string and ending up losing his sanity completely?

Catelin closed her eyes clutching her chest as another wave of fear hit her heart. She flinched in terror when her phone started ringing. She cursed under her breath at how afraid she was and picked the call up.

"Catelin something has happened and shit I don't know how to tell you?" Catelin took a seat on the bed as her hands started trembling slightly. She waited for Trevor to continue and his next words left her paralyzed.

"Lucifer came to the hospital where I took that man who harassed you and trust me he had left the man here lifeless. He's alive but dead." Catelin gasped out shaking her head.

" What are you trying to say Trevor I am not getting it?" Trevor took a deep breath.

"He took the guy with him somewhere and we had no idea where. He beat him and left him on the exit door of the hospital almost dead." Catelin's eyes widened in pure shock.

" L-Lucifer where is he?" She said in her trembling tone making him sigh out.

"No one had seen him so no one suspected him. I am the only one who had seen him throwing the almost dead man in front of the hospital. Thankfully he didn't kill him. And don't worry I am not reporting him to police but I will only say pray for the guy and also the psychiatrist who examined Lucifer today said that he knows what is wrong with Lucifer and instructed me to bring you to him." Catelin was about to say something when she jumped up from the bed hearing the harsh sound of the door opening.

She instantly cut the call and hid the phone under the pillow before running towards the door. She was about to lock the door when it got roughly opened.

She yelped out stumbling back. She knew Lucifer is not in his right mind to think anymore. That's why fearing his actions she tried to lock the door but he was fast enough.

There was a small smirk on his lips as he entered the room and closed the door behind him leaning against it. He folded his buff arms against his chest giving her a good view of his bruised knuckles.

She took more steps back which didn't go unnoticed by him. He clenched his jaw and narrowed his hazel eyes at her throwing a dangerous glare at her.

"Are you scared of me doll?" He said raising his eyebrows.

Catelin didn't answer him instead only stare at him in pure fear. Lucifer chuckled nodding his head. He sighed out shaking his head. Catelin flinched when he threw his arms beside him unfolding them from his chest.

His dark psychotic gaze met hers making her gulp down. He started taking slow steps towards her making her step back as her lower lip wobble in fear. She felt a wave of heavy tears reaching her eyes but she held them back.

"So that bitch of a troller called you. So he must have told you what I did to that bastard who touched you right? " He said smirking but the anger was evident in his gaze.

His steps didn't stop nor hers. At last the back to her knees touched the edge of the bed making her fall on her butt on the soft mattress.

She gasped out leaning her head back when Lucifer slammed his palms on the bed beside her leaning towards her face. He kept on leaning making her lean back while staring in her fearful teary eyes with his psychotic obsessive ones.

"But I am sure he didn't tell you what kind of things I did to that bastard. Did he? " He whispered leaning forward and finally her back came in contact with the soft material of the mattress.

Lucifer fully hovered above her. He leaned his face down to the extent that his nose was touching hers making her hold back her breath. His dark gaze stared in her teary ones without blinking. He slowly slid his one arm around her tiny waist making her flinch at his touch.

His weight had pushed her body deeper in the soft mattress while her slightly trembling body was stiff laid on the bed. His one arm was wrapped around her waist while the other was pressed against the mattress beside her body.

His muscular yet heavy body had caged her not even letting her breathe properly. He leaned down to her crook making her breath still for a second before her eyes widened at his next words.

"You know what I did today. I broke the head of that bastard." This stopped her breathing. Pulling his head up he stared in her stunning green eyes with his sinister hazel ones.

"First I cut his every fucking finger. The same finger that he used to touch what's mine." He said caressing her cheek tracing his finger till her jawline.

"Then I beat him using a baseball bat exactly 4 times. Even his teeth were fallen off. Weak ass." He said chuckling like he was enjoying remembering the very scenario of his victim.

"Then I cut his tongue and slash his lips after all they shouldn't have done the things he was trying to made them do. Now they paid for his idiotic moves." He exclaimed making a disappointed face.

Then closing the distance between their faces he leaned closer kissing the side of her lips.

"Then finally I broke his head in a way that he wouldn't be able to use it ever again." Tears started streaming down her eyes as she stared at him trembling furiously this time.

"You know what I hate the most?" He mumbled moving his finger to her beautiful wet eyelashes as he moved his finger on them making her let out a cracked sob.

"I hate it when you run away from me. When you deny me. When you say you are not mine." He leaned to her jaw peppering it with his soft pecks. She whimpered out leaning her head back when he applied a little force on her jaw leaving a hard kiss on her jaw bone.
