Damon POV.
Things went badly, really bad that day, I was in charge of Cici’s actions, and her kicking my brother off to the edge of hell fell over my back. When Trent made it back, he was furious, he demanded to punish her, but I refused to punish her, he was the one to start the fight, he’s the one who teased her until her powers acted up all-cause of him.
Lucifer didn’t agree with me, nor did he agree with Trent, and so we fought, we always fight, we have been fighting since we were kids, it’s not new for us, we landed good hits on each other before other lords were ordered to pull us apart.
“If you two have to fight, then let it be for a prize,” Lucifer says in a real Lucifer way, he saw us as entertainment, and he always did.
“I want the ownership of the little brat, I’ll find a better way to control her,” Trent says, but my baby wasn’t us for grabs, he couldn’t just claim her.
“I won the first time, and I’ll win this time too,” I tell him, I was the stronger one between the two of us and he knew it, his smile, the evil one filled with mischief, I knew he was up to something now.
“Fight!” Lucifer says the fight began, it was a clean fight at first, but the fights don’t always stay clean, especially when it comes between two demon lords, after the third hit, I felt something hit me in the left thigh, it was a small needle prick, but I knew I was cheated on, I tried to fight the effect of whatever he gave me away, but didn’t work well for me.
Then my baby joined us in the room, she hugged me, I hoped Lucifer would call the match off, that he would allow us to call it a timeout, to give me enough time to heal myself up, but the fight continued, and so did the venom.
The venom was strong enough to kill me, when I fell, it took me three days to get back up, three fulls days, Athena was the one taking care of me, she saved me from being killed, Lucifer didn’t care that Trent has cheated, he allowed him to win, he never cared about the ways we win or lose, as long as we did give him a good show first.
I demanded to have Cici back, but my demand was denied, I got angry, a thing you never do while talking with the king of hell, you bow your head and say yes, even when you don’t want to. But instead, I fought with him, I attacked, I did use every trick I knew and was trained with, but they did nothing to Lucifer, he knew my moves, he taught me some of them, and now I’m punished, not allowed to leave hell, I’m trapped here.
I was going crazy, insane was a small description of what I felt like, no one knew anything about Cici, her powers weren’t shaking the hell anymore, I wasn’t sure if Trent managed to help her control her powers or if he did hurt her because if he did, I’m going to kill him this time. Trent isn’t Lucifer, he’s a free game, I can kill him, and I will, but he has to come down here to hell to meet me, I can’t leave sadly.
“Any news on her?” I ask Victoria, she’s my only alliance here in hell, Athena is up on earth trying to locate Calesti, we didn’t have a clear plan yet, but the first move is simply to find her, and then we’ll find a way to get her back.
“Non, I’m sorry,” Victoria says, she wasn’t happy about Calesti disappearing either, our littles are good friends, and they miss each other. They are each other only friends currently, I didn’t have enough time to introduce her to anyone else, I didn’t have enough time to spend it with her, I felt my heart getting broken into a million pieces, if I had a soul, it was in Cici’s hand, and with her gone, my soul was also gone.
“My king, I’ve been behaving, can’t we call it even with my punishment?” I beg the king of hell sounding more like a little than Cici ever did.
“By behaving you mean not trying to kill me for the last week?” Lucifer answers, he knows most things that occur here in hell.
“Well, I didn’t,” I say with a cheap smile.
“Get back to your work Damon,” Lucifer dismisses me from his throne room, sending me back to my misery, this is hell, but I’m the one who’s being tortured, not the damn souls.
