Chapter 12 🌶

Damian brought them home and straight to their bed with a simple thought, where he proceeded to kiss her senseless. Thrusting deeply, he took great pleasure in the happy sigh she released. This was his mate and he loved everything about her.

Rolling them over so that she was sitting on top, Thea grabbed hold of the headboard and rode him hard as he tasted and teased her nipples. The more he played the harder she rode him. Releasing her nipple with a pop, he captured her lips and thrusted as deeply as he could.

Her over sensitized body started to vibrate around him as the pleasure continued to build up. Reaching down between them he rubbed her nub with gentle, yet forceful circles, until she threw her head back and cried out, “Yes, Dnirya!”

He continued to assault her senses, the pleasure continued to build up until it nearly consumed her. She rode him hard as her walls vibrated and clamped down around him so firmly that he could no longer hold back. Filling her with his seed once again he held her close as their bodies continued to move and climax.

Several minutes later, Thea said to him. “Can we just remain here forever and ignore the rest of the world?”

“I only wish that we could, my beautiful Zoqa, but alas we must leave eventually.”

“Now that I can be here with you, promise me that we’ll try to never be apart for more than a few hours. I want to be your wife, your partner in all things, whether it be here or in the human realm. I want us to become each other’s closest friend, confidant, and partner. I want to see and learn everything about Ikisat. I want to support you in all things,” Thea told him with complete honesty.

Damian smiled as he listened to her. That was his deepest wish as well. Nodding he replied, “I promise, my love. Together, we’ll be unbreakable. When we have a child, that child will be safe because no one will dare go against the Daemoni Prince of Ikisat and his mate, the Princess of all the Daemoni Realms.”

“Yes!” she exclaimed as she kissed him deeply. “I think it’s time we go see Innara and stop these games of hers. I won't allow her to hurt us anymore.”

“I completely agree!” a deep, powerful voice stated as a large man appeared in their bedroom. “You’ve truly become the heir I’d hoped you would be, granddaughter.”

“My Lord Lucifer!” Damian exclaimed in surprise, bowing his head.

Theanna gasped in surprise as she quickly pulled a sheet up around her body, an angry scowl on her face at someone intruding on their personal time and space.

“My Lord, this is my mate, Theanna Prince, daughter of Mikael and Nira,” Damian introduced respectfully.

Lucifer waited a moment to respond, as if waiting to see how Thea would greet him. Finally, he raised an eyebrow at her before saying, “Damian, you're looking well. Theanna, do I not receive a greeting from you?”

Thea crossed her arms over her chest as her scowl deepened at him. She looked him over as she said, her irritation plainly in her voice, “My grandfather, whom I’ve never met decides to show up unannounced, in our bedroom, while we’re in bed and I’m supposed to be all ‘Lord Lucifer, it’s so wonderful to meet you!’? Yeah, I don’t think so.”

Climbing out of bed with a sheet wrapped around her, she added. “You’ll excuse me if I dress before I decide if I want to formally meet the infamous Dark Lord.”

Walking behind a room divider she muttered as she dressed in jeans and a D Corp T-shirt, “Can’t even show up when I’m dressed or turn around when he notices I’m undressed. Sheesh! Here I thought Darius knew no boundaries as I was growing up! What the frack is up with these Mythics just appearing without warning. I know let’s just appear in the bedroom of someone who turns into a psychotic Daemoness and regularly scrambles Thea’s brain... yeah that’s a brilliant idea.”

Lucifer chuckled deeply as he turned his back towards them, “Better?”

“I guess... albeit a bit late on the draw there.” Thea relented as she appraised the man in front of her. He was not at all what she imagined Lucifer to look like but rather how she had pictured Hades from Greek Mythology. He was tall and dark and impressively handsome with long black hair that was tied back. His muscles had muscles which made him immensely powerful looking and gave him a commanding presence.

Returning back to the middle of the room she noticed Damian had conjured himself some clothes as well before she turned to Lucifer and said with a deep sigh, “So you're my grandfather, the great and wondrous Dark Lord Lucifer. Just to let you know, your queen, Innara, yeah, she’s a cheating conniving bitch whom I truly despise.”

Lucifer turned back around and moved to the couches in the room. Sitting down, he pointed to the couch across from him as he said, “Let’s sit, shall we? And yes, you are absolutely correct about Innara. I've left her unchecked for way too long. Gaia came and had a bit of a chat with me. She informed me of everything that has been happening and we both agree enough is enough.”

“You know Gaia?” Thea asked as she and Damian sat down.

“I do. She is, in a sense, my sister. I look like how you’d picture Hades because I am Hades. Hades, Lucifer, they are all just names the humans have given us. Innara and I were never in love, we were each a means to an end, when I left I'd hoped Innara would learn to love but unfortunately she’s only learned about dark obsession.”

Thea looked at him skeptically. “So, you say you’re here to end Innara's games. Why should I trust you?” she blurted out. “It’s not like this side of my family has a good track record. Besides, all I know about you is what has been recorded in human records, which have Lucifer as a conniving evil being. Mind you, I take all that with a grain of salt but still, you’ve been absent from my whole life. For all I know you want to use me and at the end of the day, destroy me as well.”

Damian smirked at his mate. He had a feeling that if she ever met Chaos or one of the creation beings she’d treat them the exact same way. She had no fear and he loved it.

“She’s tough! Mikael would be very proud! You’re correct, I have been absent. Humans use gods and Daemoni to explain what they can’t and then blame us for their failings. I admit, I may have provided them with some good source material but that was a long time ago and a lot has changed. Love is the most powerful source in the universe and can change even the most stubborn of beings.”

“That is so true,” Damian agreed as he looked at Thea.

“So you found love and ran off, leaving us with Innara. Thanks... truly.” Thea rolled her eyes at him, not giving an inch.

“Innara wasn’t always the way she is now. Mordecai changed her. He convinced her that if she cursed Mikael he’d never leave her. Then he convinced her that he killed Mikael to prevent him from destroying Innara. All lies of course. He’s continued to weave his lies from his prison and corrupted her further. Gaia came to me and informed me of the harm she’s caused you. For that I apologize. I’m here because it’s time it ended. If she wants to be with Mordecai so badly, we can arrange that.”

“But my Lord, she’s High Queen. Without your rule, removing her would cause chaos and destruction,” Damian reminded him, a warning in his voice.

“Yes, the order of the Realms must be maintained. You taught me the wisdom of that, Prince Damian. That’s why I’m here, to make the Princess of the Daemoni Realms the new High Queen.”

“Me?!? High Queen?!? What new Celestian drug are you on?” Thea blinked in surprise as she looked at Damian in shock. “I know nothing of being a Daemoni Princess, not to mention being High Queen. I was trained to fear my Daemoni side and because of Nihasia kept myself from knowing that side of me.”

“You’re already more powerful than Innara ever was and you’re mated to the most strategically cunning of my Princes. With him by your side the rest will be easy. I know there’s been a lot that’s happened to you and because of that your brain has been, as you say, scrambled a bit. May I take care of Nihasia and fix everything that’s been done to you?” Lucifer asked as he smiled at her.

Thea looked skeptically at Damian, who nodded at her. Looking thoughtfully at Lucifer she didn't see an ounce of deceit in his eyes. Rather, she saw remorse which surprised her more than anything. With a sigh, she looked back at Damian. If he felt it was alright then she would go with it. “Fine. But, please don't make it worse.”

“Let's get you fixed up.” Lucifer stated as he stood up. As he approached, he reached out and placed both his hands onto her temples.

Closing his eyes, he saw what all she’d suffered and immediately his power flowed from him into her and fixed what hadn’t quite been fixed yet. All of the damage done by previous trainings, by the Ahriman, and by Nihasia, Lucifer fixed it all. He completely merged Nihasia into her, finishing what Damian and Darius had started and in the process providing her with the ability to control her powers. Finally, he gave her a gift. He provided her with the knowledge she’d need to succeed as queen and in the process he gave her a boost to her powers so that she was truly unequalled in her abilities.

As Damian watched them, he marvelled at the amount of power Lucifer was gifting to her. His Theanna would now truly be awe-inspiring. High Queen! He never guessed this would happen. In every being's life there were moments that were life-altering. Moments where one knew things would never be the same. This was one of those times. From this moment on, everything would be different!

“You already have the strength and lack of fear to rule well. Guide with your heart and Damian’s prowess and your reign will be legendary.” Lucifer stated with pride as he released her.

Thea opened her glowing eyes and smiled. She felt absolutely amazing and powerful. For the first time in her life she felt in control of herself. “Finally...” she heard Nihasia sigh contentedly as she seemed to go to sleep.

Looking up at Lucifer as she stood up, she smiled and said, “Thank you! I’m still nervous about trusting you but thank you. I feel complete for the first time.”

“I can work with that. I’m sorry for everything and for not being there when Mikael needed me or when you needed me. I want to change that. If you allow me, I would like to get to know you and support you in your rule,” Lucifer replied with a remorseful smile.

“Thank you for your apology. It's not often, well ever, that you hear of a Celestian apologizing. We all make mistakes, some just larger than others. I’m willing to try and get to know you, but... are you sure you want me to be High Queen?” Thea asked skeptically.

“Absolutely!” he replied with a smile as he gently pulled her into a hug. “Gaia and I met with Chaos before I came to you. He’s the one who said you should be High Queen. Gaia and I agree wholeheartedly. You’ve all of our support. There is no better choice.”

Thea nodded thoughtfully as she returned his hug. Was this something she wanted? Could she be what the Dark Realms needed? Everyone seemed to think so. She may be relatively young in the eyes of the Daemoni but she had lived many lives in her training sessions. With the knowledge given to her by Lucifer and having Damian at her side, maybe she could do this. If they had faith in her why couldn't she? She wondered what Darius thought about all of this. “One final question, what about Darius and D Corp? I can’t just abandon him.”

“He’ll have the strongest connection he’s ever had to the Dark Realms. Besides, no one said you can’t maintain a presence at D Corp. Don't worry. Gaia is already talking to her son. She agrees this is the best way to handle Innara as she has become a thorn for all Mythics.”

Looking at Damian, Thea raised an eyebrow and said to him, “You’ve been remarkably quiet, Dnirya. What are your thoughts on all of this?”

“Well, if I’d known that falling in love would bring me the most powerful position a creature like me can have, I’d have done it a millennia ago,” Damian stated with a wicked grin.

“Jerk-face,” Thea grumbled as both Lucifer and Damian laughed. “Ok, fine. I guess we can do this. If everyone has such faith in me it's time I had faith in myself. But first, I need to go to the little girl's room. Then I guess we can deal with Innara and everyone else... yay us,” she stated sarcastically with a sigh as she left the room.

“Has she always been like this?” Lucifer chuckled.

“Always, my Lord!” Damian replied proudly.

“You’re one lucky Daemoni!”
