Embrace Of The Lucifer

Chapter 18

It was just another busy day for Lucifer at the office. He was wearing his glasses and was checking the

files of one of his clients. He was sick and tired of the stupidity of his staff. He growled in frustration and

called for his manager.

"Yes sir? You need something?" The man asked.

"What the hell is this Ricardo? Why there are so many fucking errors in these files? Who the fuck

prepared these files?" Ricardo had been working for Lucifer for a very long time but that never stopped

him from getting mad at every person.

"I'm sorry sir, I will just find out who was in charge of these files and let you know," Ricardo said and left

his office with the files in his hand.

Lucifer was slowly losing his forbearance. The burden of the company and the mind filled with the

thoughts of that girl only...

He was already going insane. He wanted to see her more....feel her exquisite unblemished body...

Unblemished.

Is her body unblemished? This question was running in his head. He knew her past life. He knew her

parents were abusive and he wanted nothing but to rip their hands out of their body. But he had to

control...it was not the right time to do anything.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He opened them and tried to calm himself.

I should ask her about it. She can tell me accurately than anyone else.

He thought this was the perfect thing to do at that time. But he perceived the fact that she was scared

of him. There was no way on earth she would have let out everything that easily.

If she doesn't tell me I'll make sure that she does...

He smirked at his thought. Lucifer decided when he would be home he would ask August about

everything that happened in her past life.

But why am I so desperate for that? I don't even need to know anything, I just need her body...

Incertitude occurred in him again. He wanted to make everything clear but it seemed impossible to him.

But he was sure that he would get her...by hook or by crook.

He stood up from his chair and left the house and was on the way to his home. His work was done in

the for that day, he decided to finish the other things at him while...he would watch her in relish...

After 30 minutes he arrived at the mansion and got inside.

"Hey, son! How was your day at the office?" He was not even concentrating on anyone, his eyes were

just searching for that girl.

He looked around and frowned. There was no sign of her in the house.

"Lucifer? What's wrong? What are you looking for?" That caught his attention and he looked to his

mother.

"Nothing mom. Tell me do you need something?"

"No honey I'm good I was just asking how was your day?"

"It was good." He replied and took a seat on a sofa that had a clear view of the kitchen. He saw many

maids working there except her. He was getting annoyed by then.

"Son, shall I tell Martha to bring you some food?

Martha!"

Martha instantly came running to them. "Yes ma'am?"

"Please serve Lucifer his usual lunch." Martha bowed and ran back to the kitchen.

He fisted his hand and gritted his teeth in frustration...

Why the fuck isn't she here! Where the heck she could be!

His forbearance was already running slow...

A few minutes later Martha approached them and placed his food on the table. She turned around to

depart when Lucifer stopped her.

"Yes, master?" She asked looking down.

"Where are all the maids?" He asked in his usual blunt tone.

"They are all here sir." She replied quietly.

"Are they? I don't fucking think everyone is present here." He said and clenched his teeth.

Martha gulped and looked at Mrs. Knight who was talking to a phone and was unable to hear them.

"Sir everyone is present trust me just that..."

"Just what?" He questioned her before she could complete her sentence.

"Just that new girl August, she isn't here." That shook Lucifer to death.

What the fuck!

"And where the heck is she?" His tone sounded more dangerous than before just like he was looking

scarier than before as he stood up and stand in front of her. His enormous body was even covering the

light reaching Martha's face.

She gulped and answered, "Sir, she wanted to visit her aunt. So, I-I let her go..." Her sentence was

interrupted by her strident scream. Within few moments everyone and even Mrs. Knight rushed there.

They all noticed a flower vase was on the floor, shattered into pieces, along with it, the table laid

helplessly on the floor...broken into pieces just like the decorated glass on it. Everything was a mess.

"Oh my god, Lucifer! What are you doing?" His mother asked him. He ignored her that time.

His breathing was heavy. His nostrils were fuming in wrath. He asked her in a dangerously low voice.

"Who gave you the permission to let someone out of this house?" Martha stared with wide eyes. She

couldn't answer him. Even Mrs. Knight was beyond shocked. She and the other maids had never seen

him in so much anger over a small thing like this. Before that, he never cared if any maid or other

workers were out of the house. But that day, his behavior shocked everyone to the core.

Martha was already quivering. "S-sir, the g-girl is new so I-I thought I should let her see her aunt once."

She answered in a low voice.

He straightened his posture and put his hands inside of his pockets and looked straight at her eyes. His

eyes were peering through her.

"Martha, you are in no position of giving permission or making any decision. So I am telling you this for

the last time. If anything like this happens again....you will be fired." He didn't even let her say another

word and left for his bedroom.

He was beyond furious...he couldn't bear the fact that she was not there in front of his eyes. He didn't

even know for how long she would be there at her aunt's. He wouldn't want her away from him for even

a second.

August.

I laughed at Caroline's extremely peculiar jokes. She was still so bad at telling jokes. But that never

stopped me from laughing. I was always happy whenever I was with her.

"Sweetie, you still didn't tell me about your job. I mean how are the people there? The other maids,

other workers?" Her questions never stopped. I chuckled a little.

"It's really good there. Their house is beautiful and Martha is a nice guide she never got mad at me

instead she always supported me." I replied with a smile.

"And how about the owners? What kind of people are they?" My smile disappeared. What should I tell

her about it? Of course, I couldn't ever tell her about what master did to me. She would be worried. I

forced a smile on my face and replied to her.

"T-they are good Caroline." She sighed in relief and caressed my head.

"That is great honey, I was really worried about it." I placed my hand on hers.

"Don't worry aunt okay? I will be fine. For now, you should worry about yourself." I said and hugged her

which she returned gladly.

The day passed like this and it was already night I thought to go to bed early as I had to leave early

morning tomorrow. Caroline called me for dinner but I refused her. She already fed me so many

cookies and other favorite snacks of mine that I had no vacant area inside my stomach.

I sat on my bed and exhaled deeply. I didn't want to go. I missed Caroline so much but I couldn't just

stay there for more days. I knew they wouldn't allow me to stay for so long.

I shrugged off the thoughts and laid down, closing my eyes.

****

I woke up at the sound of my alarm. Rubbing my eyes I forced myself out of the bed and went to the

bathroom. I did my business and came out and glanced at the clock. It said 8 o'clock. I thought to leave

at 10 for the mansion. I wore my clothes and went outside to see Caroline. She was already making

breakfast for me. Her face beamed when she saw me.

"Good morning sweetie. Come eat your breakfast now." She cooked my favorite pancakes and

scrambled eggs. Just the smell of those made my stomach growled in hunger. I didn't wait for a second

and start eating.

I heard her laugh and my cheeks flushed. "It's okay sweetie just eat well."

"Um...aunt I am leaving at 10 o'clock."

"Oh..." She replied. I knew by her tone that she was upset. I approached her and hugged her.

"Don't be upset aunt. I promise I will visit you again." I said and kissed her cheeks.

"I know honey I know. Just take care of yourself okay?" I nodded my head and went back to eat my

food.

After breakfast, I helped her with the dishes and went to my room to pack my things. I glanced at the

clock again and it was 9:40.

I was stuffing everything in my back and all of a sudden my eyes fell on the phone that master Ethan

gave me. It looked really expensive. I picked it up carefully and opened the lock screen. The screen

showed several applications. And I observed that it had a new text arrived. I clicked on the application

named "message".

The text said. "Hey, August it's Ethan." I bit my lip. I didn't know what to do.

Should I reply to him or just ignore the text?

But if I ignored it might look bad. Ethan was a nice person. So, I thought to just reply to him. I clicked on

the message and typed "Hi. Sorry just saw your text."

I put the phone on the bed and looked at the screen. Within few seconds he replied to me back.

"No problem August. Did you enjoy spending time with your aunt?" That made me smile a little.

I replied, yes.

"Excellent, so when are you coming back?" He wrote.

"I will leave soon. I have to go, nice to see you." I didn't wait for his reply and put the phone inside the

bag. I picked up my bag and for the last time, I glanced at my room. Even though this room was

nothing special but I still missed it like crazy. I sighed and closed the door behind me and went to my

aunt. She was already waiting for me outside and when saw me she gave me a tight hug.

"I'll miss you aunt." A drop of tear rolled down my cheek. She pulled back and wiped it with her thumb.

"I will miss you too sweetie. Stay well okay?" I nodded. "You too aunt please take care of your heath."

She smiled at me.

She insisted to drop me at the bus station. I didn't refuse her much and just let her come with me. We

waited for almost 10 minutes for the bus and after that, it finally arrived. I went inside and sat on an

empty seat. The bus wasn't so full of people for which I was glad. I waved at my aunt and she did the

same.

The bus started and I got myself ready to face my daily life again.

30 minutes passed like that and I knew the mansion wasn't so far from the area now. Suddenly I felt

something vibrating inside my back. I opened it and saw that the phone was ringing and the caller was

Ethan. I received the call and heard him.

"Hey, August."

"Uh...hey sir," I replied.

"No sir, please. And did you leave already?" I frowned at his question. Why did he want to know that?

"Yes, sir I told you."

I heard him sigh. "I could have come to receive you August."

"No no, it's totally fine I am almost close to the mansion."

"Okay, August. Then I'll see you when you arrive."

"Yes sir, see you soon."

"Bye August." We both hung up and I instantly put the phone inside. I was afraid that I would lose or

someone might steal it from me.

Another 30 minutes passed and the bus finally came to a stop. I walked out of the bus. And started to

walk. I still had few blocks to pass. It took me good 10 minutes to reach the mansion. When I reached,

the guards opened the door as they already knew I work there. I went inside and started to look for

Martha.

But no one was around. That was odd. I saw a maid named Marie sweeping the floor.

"H-have you seen, Martha?" I asked her. She looked at me and her eyes went wide. I didn't know why

she reacted like this.

"You...you are here finally."

"W-why? Wh-what do you mean?"

"You don't know what you did you little dumb slut?" Hannah came and remarked. I gulped.

"Wh-what's wrong? I-I don't know anything." I replied with a shaky voice.

"Because of you, Martha got scolded by master Lucifer." Another girl said and glared at me. The

mention of him made me quiver in fear.

"Enough girls! Go back to your work." I heard Martha saying that. The girls departed and only me and

Martha were left.

She came to me and gave me a small smile. "How was your time with Caroline, sweetie?" Her question

shocked me. Was she trying to change the topic?

"Martha...please tell me w-what's going on?" I pleaded.

She sighed. "Honey...I don't understand...whatever happened was quite unexpected. Master Lucifer

was furious that you went out of the house without his permission." I stared at her with a horrific look.

"B-but why?" I asked.

"I don't know hun. But don't worry about it now. You came from a long journey. Just go to your room

and rest for some time, after that, I'll tell you your task." She said and left, I was still confused and

scared.

Oh god! What that man wants from me!
