Everlasting love

Lucifer's POV
I watched as Darius held Ash and I stared at him. "What do you want Darius?" I asked him.
"Tell your men to lower their weapons Lucifer," He said gesturing to the warriors who were on guard with their swords and arrows. I nodded for them to lower their weapons and with grudge they did.
"I'm not here to fight with you Lucifer,I just want my sister." He said to me.
I stared at him and then at Ash. Maybe I had denied her from her only true family for too long. I nodded. Ash stared at me in shock.
"You're letting me go with him?" She asked me.
"I have come to understand that when you love someone very much and there comes a time for you to choose between your love and her happiness,I have to choose her happiness." I said to her and it ached me saying so.
Darius beamed. "Finally little sister, you're coming home." He said turning to Ash who just stared at me.
"You're really letting me go?" She questioned me.
"Your happiness matters." I said to her even though it was killing me.
"My happiness lies with you!" She exclaimed to the shock of her brother.
"What?" He questioned.
She turned to him. "Forgive me brother but I cannot return with you to Royal Mile." She said to him.
"Why? If you are bothered about father and our brothers then you need not to. Father is dead." He said and Ash gasped.
"How? What happened?" She asked.
"In his bid to recreate his empire forcefully,he lost control. Total control of everything when he went to seek alliance with his foes and one of his enemies drove a stake into his heart,pulled it out and burnt it." He said.
Ash heaved. "And Otis and Joshua?" She asked.
"Living their lives the way they've always wanted. I'm the new Clutch leader. You can come home now Ash,even mother wants to see you." He said.
Ash looked down and then at him. She shook her head and walked up to me. "I've found my home,the place I'll call my home." She said covering her hands with mine and I stared at her in surprise and in love. She chose me over her family. Was this not the purest of love?
"Ash.." Darius began to say.
She shook her head. "I'm fine here Darius and I do not wish to return home and if I must do, I'll only come home to see everyone and show them the man who loves and appreciate me but I will not stay." She said to him.
"You've fallen in love with him." Darius said and Ash nodded.
"My tormentor has become my lover." She said and I turned her around to look at me.
"You're not leaving me?" I asked her.
"Why would I?" She questioned.
"I hurt you these past few days, Ash." I said to her.
She shook her head. "I know everything Lucifer. I know all about your birth stars and I as your redemption." She said to me.
"Roselia told you." I said to her and she nodded
"Is that why you're staying back?" I inquired.
I shook my head. "I'm staying back because I love you Lucifer." She said to me and I smiled wrapping her into my arms and kissing her deeply.
"I love you more Ashlyn Ambrosia." I said to her. "It's high time you changed that name to mine." I said to her and she laughed with tears at the corner of her eyes.
"Today?" She asked me.
"Yes. Today." I said to her. Darius coughed and we both turned to look at him.
"If this is what you want little sister then I'm in support and Lucifer Saunron,do not hurt my sister." He said to me and I grinned.
"Never again." I said looking into Ash's eyes. "I'll always trust you no matter what." I said and entangled my lips with hers savoring in her everlasting love.

**Four years later**
Ashlyn's POV
Lucifer was playing in the field with Amber,our four years old little daughter. They bonded so well that one would not expect a daughter to be so close to her father than her mother.
Lucifer lifted her in mid air and she giggled out.
I gazed lovingly at the one year old boy toddling around before me. Michael, another product of the love Lucifer and I shared. He had my eyes but took his father's stubborn attitude at such a tender age. Not just him but Amber too. None of them were anything like their once weak and spineless mother.
Lucifer had wanted to give him an outrageous and vicious name Fury like other males in the house but I refused and he too adamantly wanted his son to bear one of the names of the Nightwing's and in the end I succumbed and accepted Lightning. Lightning Saunron. But still I called him what I wanted, Michael and yet Lightning was sticking to everyone's tongue than the name I gave him. It was only a few months ago that with grudge I accepted that Lightning was very much catchy than Michael.
Over the years I went to Royal Mile to see my family. My mother was like the shadow of herself but still managed to smile and talk whenever I came around. The death of her husband had its effects on her.
My two other brothers were still living their lives the way they wanted while Darius was building a new empire.
When Amber was born and after many months taken to see mother,her excitement knew no bounds. That was the first time in many years I was seeing her smile genuinely. I smiled at the thought. Should I say in the end my life turned out well?
Who was I joking with? Of course it did and in the most unplanned and tormenting way,it did unfold into something better.
That very day Darius came to take me away four years ago,I got married to Lucifer and became Ashlyn Saunron. How everything worked out fine for the both of us was incredible and Lucifer was rid of the full moon spell. He was no longer under the control of it. He no longer transformed into his demonic beast and I had my hunger for blood under control too.
Michael walked towards me in haste with his wobbly legs that were not firm to the ground yet as his sister ran towards me with a huge grin plastered on her face as she fell into my arms alongside her baby brother.
Lucifer walked up to us grinning. "I should call an artist to paint this on his canvas. This is a sight to behold." He said to us.
I laughed. His sense of humor did not fade over the years.
"It would be lovely if Lightning isn't sticking out his tongue at me now." Amber said sticking out her tongue too at Michael. Even her called her brother Lightning.
Lucifer chuckled and Amber stood up. "Catch me daddy!" She yelled laughing as she ran up the field.
"You're not faster than me!" Lucifer said going after her.
I chuckled as I swooped Lightning into my arms,I mean Michael,oh my, the name was getting stuck on my tongue too. He giggled as I held him.
"Someday my child, I'll tell you a story about a spineless vampire hybrid and a cruel lycan and how their fate was entwined with each other." I said to him and all he did was giggled. Someday, he'll understand.
I walked up to Lucifer who had caught Amber in his arms and on seeing me,he lowered her down and placed a kiss on my forehead when I got closer. He held my hand and with the other,he held Amber's and with Michael in my free arm,we walked together towards the hill and the sunsetting over its horizon.
In the end I found peace,love and most of all I found my home.
