Delilah is held captive by Will, a dark magic archivist who she once had a very close relationship with--until she learned who he really was. But he's decided not to give up on her yet. --- "It's about time I made you mine," he muttered, hand sliding further up her leg, back down again. She felt queasy at the thought, squirming under his touch as she looked at him with pathetic panic. "You wouldn't," she said, but it was more to soothe her own anxieties. A poor attempt really. There was something in his eyes, or a lack of it really. She couldn't be certain anymore, what he would or wouldn't do. He'd lied so well for so long, it felt like she didn't know him at all. Perhaps she never had. "Wouldn't I?" He asked, eyes narrowed curiously, head pulled back just a hair as his hand lightly massaged her leg. She loathed the thought that he was right, and that she was completely at his mercy as he had his fun with her, mentally, physically, tormenting her. All for what?

❛ THE DEVIL IS A WOMAN. ❜ ⊱ ────── ☯ ────── ⊰ Lucifer guesses she's just a mess. Maybe she's just lonely, or just downright bitter but she knows her head's a storm and her chest is empty. When she moves to Wichita with her hot-shot family in consideration to business affairs, she meets some peculiar children at Cypress High. They're different, spontaneous, and constantly pushed around. They're like her, she realises. The anomalies. The kids society won't save. The messed up. The fuck-ups. They're just sad kids, who put all of their hope in the fact that putting their headphones in makes them feel like they're not alone. For someone who's never fit in, she finds solace among the souls of these four rough-edged kids. Lucifer finds herself begrudgingly wanting to save them. This is the story of becoming a hero the hard way. ⊱ ────── ☯ ────── ⊰ Copyright © 2021 by cherry
