Chapter 9
Lucifer.
I took a sip of my wine while talking to my friends. I must say Adrian really did a good job in decoration.
I looked around me and saw many people talking and laughing. My eyes fell on that maid...she was
looking beautiful on her outfit. I stared at her, not able to move my eyes. Her beautiful hair was open
and she was wearing light makeup that suited her, her blue blouse and black pencil skirt was looking
fitting her body perfectly. I observed her walking with a tray in her hands and serving everyone.
Her features and beauty was quite noticable to all the other men whose eyes were hungrily checking
her out.
My teeth were clenching at the thought of other men looking at her.
But soon my eyes softened when they landed on her, smiling brightly at the guest. I felt my face stretch.
Am I smiling? Shocked with myself, I quickly removed the expression from my face in hope that nobody
saw my smile. I took another sip of my wine trying to control myself from grabbing her from behind and
kiss her luscious lips. I was happy and angry at the same time with Adrian for choosing the outfit. No
doubt that she was looking mesmerizing but also the dress was like a second skin on her body that
made most of the men look at her with lustful eyes. I didn’t know why I was affected but if I was then I
did not plan on sitting quietly and do nothing.
I saw her going towards the kitchen, I was satisfied with that because she was away from the other
men’s views.
“Hey big brother” I heard a voice. I turned around to find no other then him. My cold stare was enough
to make him understand that I was not happy to see him.
“How have you been?” he asked me smirking. I clenched my fists.
“What the fuck are you doing here?” I asked in a calm tone.
“Well, well, this is not a right way to welcome your little brother” he replied and grinned.
“You’re not welcome here after coming back after 1 year” we stared at each other for few second. After
that he burst into laughter and hugged me. I smiled and hugged him back.
“How have you been brother?” he asked.
“I am good. What about you? How’s your business in Spain?” I asked.
“It’s good brother and now I’m thinking to shift my business here so that I could be with you guys” he
smiled.
“That’s good. I’ll help you with it” I stated. Later then, my other family members came and met
Ebenezer. He was the second heir of Knight Family. From childhood, we had been the best friends. He
was my closest sibling, more then Nathan and Hazel.
“Oh, my baby” mom came and hugged Ebenezer. “I missed you mom” he said. I rolled my eyes at their
dramatic moment and glared at him.
“What? I’m still her little boy” he whined like a kid. I stared at him with pure disgust. A full-grown guy
does not act like this!
“Whatever” I mumbled. Suddenly, my eyes fell into the maid. She was holding two heavy boxes of beer
and going out of the house. I frowned. Where the fuck she is going right now? Then the bell rang. She
is going at Nathan’s party. He must have told her to get the beer bottles. While Adrian planned my
birthday party, Nathan had his own party planned, that included crazy bunch of kids having a pool party
with lots of alcohol, girls and of course SEX.
I never agreed to it but I could care less about it. Nathan must have asked her to bring the beer boxes
to there, and being the maid she could not deny it.
I had the sudden urge to go and check on her. I was confused if it was the right decision. It was her job
to serve us but it totally was not safe for her to be there alone.
“Excuse me” I excused myself from my family and rushed out of before a woman’s voice interrupted
me.
“Hello Mr. Knight, how have you been?” a high-pitched voice asked me. She was wearing a tight dress
which showed her curves and her ass look big. I stared at her in disgust. What the fuck she wants
now?
“I’m busy right now and have to go somewhere” I said and walked away leaving her in shock.
I did not know why I was doing this, especially for a goddamn maid. I just needed to be sure she was
fine and safe. The place was full of disgusting horny drunk guys when I went outside. My brother was
nowhere to be found. I moved closer to the pool to see if he was inside the pool but no sign of him.
Seconds later, I finally saw him surrounded by his friends. I went up to him.
“Where is she?” I growled. He stared at me in confusion. “Who?” he asked raising an eyebrow. I was
about to ask him again when I heard a bloodcurdling scream. I followed the scream with Nathan
following me back. My heart was beating faster. What if its August’s scream? No, no this can’t be. I
cannot let anything happen to her.
I was in the back of the house, still searching for her. All of a sudden, I heard a muffled sob. I looked
around myself trying to figure where this was coming from, that was when my eyes fell on a figure. A
guy was holding a girl with a hand on her mouth and kissing her neck. My fists clenched and my veins
were visible in my fists when I saw who the girl was.
August.
I will kill that fucker. I rushed towards him and pulled him off of her. I punched him hard on his face and
he immediately lose consciousness. But it didn’t stop me from hurting him. I kept on punching and
kicking him.
“You don’t touch what is mine, got it?” I yelled at him. Nathan came with the guards and pulled me
away from him. “Lucifer, calm down the party is still not over don’t act like this” he hissed at me. I
yanked my arm from him and glanced at August. She was sobbing on the floor; her hair was messy
and her blouse was a bit torn. I picked up her fragile body and my heart clenched when I felt her
sobbing on my chest.
Why am I feeling this way? I don’t even know this girl.
“Lucifer, are you crazy? What the fu-” before Nathan could finish his sentence, I shot him a glare that
made him shut his mouth. “I’m taking her in my room” I stated still not removing my eyes from her. I
was about to go when I saw Adrian rushing towards me.
“What the fuck Lucifer? The guards told me you were beating up a guy? And who is she?” he asked
pointing to August. I tightened my grip on her. “That’s none of your concern” I growled.
“Whoa whoa, calm down man. Just tell me what’s wrong?” he asked. “I don’t have any time to tell you
every fucking thing, she is injured and she needs a fucking doctor so do me a favor and call a doctor” I
yelled at him. He looked at me with pure shock but never flinched. I ignored both of them and started to
walk towards the house.
“Wait dude. You can’t go in like this. What will the guests think if you go in with a maid in your arms?”
he said.
I gritted my teeth. “I don’t care” I whispered harshly and moved away from him. I heard both of them
yelling my name, telling me to stop but I was not going to stop. I glanced again at her fragile figure and
saw that she was already unconscious. I did not know her, she was just a maid, but still I was doing
that for her. Risking my reputation, tarnishing my family’s name, but I could care less. And I did not
know why.
Narrator’s P.O.V He entered the house carrying August, making everyone stare at him. People gasped
when they saw the man who was feared by everyone, holding a small fragile figure in bridal style. Their
eyes went wide as he walked towards the stairs and went to his room. He could care less about the
guests. At that moment, he just cared for the little girl who was in his arms. He placed her delicate
figure in the bed and pulled the sheets over her. He stared at her face for a moment, examining her
everything. Her eyes were closed and her mouth was lightly parted, even if her makeup was almost
destroyed...and the kohl she had on her eyes had spread all over her eyes. His hands met her
forehead unknowingly. He was beyond shocked. Her smooth skin melted under his touch as he
caressed her head lightly. August seemed to calm down under his touch.
“Martha! Martha!” he yelled, calling the name. The maid came rushing into his room.
“Yes master?” she asked looking down.
“Clean her and call a doctor for her, make sure she’s okay” he said to her. “Yes sir” she said as she
called two other maids who were helping Martha clean up August. He walked out of the room to see
what was going on outside. He saw his friend Adrian came towards him.
“How is she now?” he asked.
“Why do you want to know?” Lucifer snapped making Adrian chuckle.
“What?” he asked his friend.
“Nothing man nothing” he said under his breath. His face had a smirk.
“Why the fuck are you smirking?” Adrian raised his hand in air and stepped backwards.
“Nothing Lucifer. I just never saw you like this, especially for a girl.” Lucifer did not say answer him.
Adrian knew something was wrong with Lucifer, but he could not figure out whatever was
happening...was right or wrong. He knew Lucifer for a long time. He knew how he was.... Adrian was
Lucifer’s closest friend; they knew each other since childhood. But he never saw Lucifer acting like that
to anyone, except for his mother and Hazel. They were the only women he cared truly for. He did not
give a crap about the women he had been with.
“Whatever” Lucifer muttered and went back to his room. The maids were done cleaning and changing
August.
“Out” he ordered. They went out quickly without saying a word. Martha was very worried about August
and wanted to stay with her but it was not like Lucifer would let her.
She was dressed in a simple night gown, not too revealing. And not to mention she was looking like a
princess, sleeping in a lavish bed. He stared at her sleeping frame.
Putting his hands back in his pocket. He walked out of the room without glancing back at him.
