2 Chapter 2

{ALEXANDRITE}

"Are you still going to school, Ms. Alex?". Lucifell asked while knocking at the door of my room.

"I don't want to go there now, I'm still scared of what might Veronica do to me". I mumble scrolling at my newsfeed on my phone.

"Scared?". He asked laughing a little at me and opening the door of my room. "As far as I know Ms. Alex isn't scared of anything?". He asked smirking at me.

"And what do you know about me?". I retort looking at him.

"Just get up from there". He said holding my feet and pulling me towards him.

"LUCIFELL!". I hold my blanket and throw him on the face.

"Stop being so stubborn Ms. Alex". He seems annoyed.

"Get your hands off my feet Lucifell!". I threaten him but he keeps on pulling me. "Stop it Lucifell, okay I'll go to school!". I shout.

He immediately releases my feet, I know he just wants to tease me. It was one of his behaviors that I really hate, and add his another behavior of not giving up until he gets what he wants. 'So childish'. I thought as I stare at him with a glare.

He suddenly lifts me to my bed and placed me outside the bathroom's door. "Just what on the earth do you think you're doing?". I asked.

"I know you'll never gonna follow me, so I'll be giving you a bath". He smirks causing my face to heat up.

I punch him on the chest but he keeps on dodging my hands using his arm. "Pervert!". I shout as he grabbed both of my hands.

"I know you'll never like that Ms. Alex, I respect your decisions". He said releasing me. "I'll be waiting for you downstairs". He said and get out to my room.

'Fuck you Lucifel!'. I thought as I get inside the bathroom.

Shutting the door behind me I lean on it and cover my face using both of my hands. My face is still on the heat, I don't know why but every time he does those stuff I always find myself in a blushing mess. My heartbeat was pumping faster than it normally does, and it keeps on pounding and pounding until I remember in my whole surrounding.

I get up and walked to take a shower. I start removing my clothes and placed it outside the curtains, I open the shower and start cleaning myself. It only took me a couple of minutes to finish. I tried to reach my towel from the steel bar on the corner of the curtain but it wasn't there.

"Luficell!". I called him. "Bring me a towel". I command.

There were knocks on the outside. "Leave it there!". I said as I wipe the curtains of the shower and get out there.

'Weird'. I thought as I hesitate to open the door. 'He usually answers'. I open the door and saw a girl with a white dress on there.

My eyes widen and my body couldn't move, it feels like all my blood suddenly drains because of the view that I see. In a blink of an eye, I found myself being carried.

"Did it hurt you?". I open my eyes and saw Lucifell carrying me on his arms while the towel is on his shoulder.

I look up to the bathroom's door and found the kid is staring at us. She gave us a creepy stare that sends a shiver to my whole body. It was Onyx was talking about, a girl wearing a white dress and I didn't even believe to him.

"Ms. Alex, please wear this towel, I need to take care of something". Lucifell placed me down and wrapped the towel around.

He disappears for a moment and when I found him he was holding the child's neck while lifting her up of the floor. His eyes are burning in range while the girl is trying to catch her breath while Lucifell keeps on choking her to death. "L-Lucifell". I called in shock.

"Who send you?!". He asked in range.

"G-Glu-Gluttony". The child couldn't answer properly while Lucifell's grip keeps on tighter and tighter.

I ran up to him and hold his arm. "Stop it Lucifell, you're going to kill her!". I grabbed his arms trying to stop him.

"She was delivered to kill, I couldn't forgive her!". He shouts.

"Please just stop it!". I shout that's why he throws the kid on the floor.

"Why did he bring you here?". Lucifell asked glaring at the child.

"He told me he'll need someone to send a message to the leader of the Seven Servants". The girl stands up from the floor and grab a small envelope on her pocket and give it to Lucifell.

Lucifell grabbed it and open the lid of the small envelope as a dark smoke filled the room. He pulled me closer to him as his face darken, slowly the dark smoke starts forming a shape, it's shaped like a human but bigger than the two of us.

"Gluttony". Lucifell said as the smoke slowly fades away.

There was a man standing meters away from us, and it sends thousands of chill to my spine seeing how he stares at us, especially to Lucifell whose still protecting me for nothing. "Lucifell, who is he?" I asked in a low tone of voice not wanting to take the man's attention.

"Stay still Ms. Alex". He growls as he keeps staring at the man. "He will never get you". He said as he pushed me to the bed and charges toward the man.

"Lucifell!". I shout.

He was so close but then the unknown person didn't move as Lucifell's punch just infiltrate on its face. "My, My Lucifell aren't you gonna say hello?". It gave him a laugh.

"What are you doing here?". Lucifel asked as he calmed himself a little.

The man let out a small laugh. "You're always on your wrath portion Lucifell, I'm not here to take your lady". He said looking at me.

'Is he talking about me?'. I asked myself.

"What are you doing here Gluttony? Are you here to claim the position once and for all, 'cause if you do I already gave it to you personally". Lucifell said. "I do not want to return to Purgatory to become the leader again, find someone's worthy of the position of the Wrath other than me. I still have things to take care of". Lucifell walks towards my cabinet and pulls its drawer to grab my clothes.

He walks toward me and gave me the clothes. "Please wear this Ms. Alex, you might catch a cold". He said.

I grabbed the clothes and slowly walks toward the bathroom.

"Don't worry Ms. Alex, I'll never gonna let them take you away from me". He gave me a small smile.

I entered the bathroom an unwrapped the towel he put to me. I wear all of my cloth and start to dry my hair using the towel.

"The Ruler is against your betrayal Lucifell, you must have to get back there as soon as possible".

I hear the voice of the man outside the bathroom's door. "I already told you for the hundredth times, I'm never gonna return to the Purgatory". It was Lucifell's voice who answered him.

"Give me a definite reason why you shouldn't go back to your home?". The man asked.

"I've already found peace in the Human World, I'll never gonna return to Purgatory just because father told you to deliver me back!". Lucifell shouts.

"Is becasue of the human girl?". He asked.

'Is he referring to me again?'. I asked myself, still curious about what they are talking about.

"Don't bring Alex into this". Lucifell said. "She got nothing to do with it".

"I thought we already thought you a lesson Lucifell?".The man asked. "Just becasue you found someone looks like Alexandra it does mean she was really her".

'Alexandra? who is she?'. I asked myself again.

"Don't you dare to say that name ever again!". It seems like Lucifell was threatening him. "She was different".

"If she was different then why don't you leave her behind and go back to the Purgatory?". It asked. "Don't tell me you saw that woman's own self to that little girl Lucifell?. Alexandra's gone now Lucifell, there's no need to put someone's life in line again like how you did to her".

I harshly open the door of the bathroom because of what I hear. "I suppose you should get away from my house immediately stranger". I said as I walked to him. "Sorry to interrupt but you are trespassing someone's property, and I doubt calling the police might be a problem so wouldn't you mind?".

Opening the door of my room and pointing it outside Lucifell gave me a shocked expression. "Ms. Alex". He said.

"Get away from my house now stranger, you're causing trouble to my property". I said.

The man turned his head to Lucifell. "You are right Lucifell, she's far more different than her". He laughs as the dark smoke fades on my room leaving the two... correction three of us in the room.

"How rude that man was, he didn't even use the door to get out". I said as I shut the door of my room.

I saw Lucifell staring at the floor, his mind seems to be blank and lost. He looks terrified and mad at the same time, maybe this Alexandra was really a great impact on his life. I doubt that the man just visits us real's intention is to bother him and me. He looks hold her head and starts cursing under his breath.

"Anything wrong?". I asked.

He looks at me in the eyes, he looks worried about what might happen 'cause maybe he heard the man mentioned me on there conversation. "Ms. Alex I-I'm sorry for the sudden disturbance of an old friend". He said and walked towards me.

"Old friend huh?". I crossed my arms looking at him. "You may be an expert in hiding stuff, but not his kind of lie".

"You got nothing to do with it Ms. Alex, I assure you that next time that if someone visits me I'll tell it to you immediately". He said.

I look at the girl who delivered the 'message' to Lucifell, she was leaning on the wall. "Let's take that child". I said.

His eyes narrowed looking at me. "Don't tell me I need to prepare an extra meal every day just because of that kid, who nearly gave you a heart attack?". He seems to be irritated, I can tell that on his expression while pointing to the small girl.

"What? I'm just a deliverer from Purgatory". She defended.

"See, I told you she's a pain". Lucifell said.

"Say that if she manages to kill me within a week". I said walking towards her. "Are you the one who appears at the screen while I'm talking to my cousin?". I asked as she averted her eyes to another direction.

"No, I'm not". She insists.

"Yes you are, I know you're lying". I said.

She looks at me. "Okay, you got me in there". She said. "And I was also the one who knocks in your door before".

"Don't worry, I know you're a wandering soul, live with us until you finally found your real business". I said. "So what is your name?".

"Lily". She said.

"I'm Alex, it's nice to meet you". I smiled.

Starting today, we've got a new company in my house. Lucifell's annoyed on her presence in my house, but he couldn't throw her away or he'll some consequences from me. After that our days were normal again, no message from the Purgatory, disturbing souls and my school, Lucifell talked to the guidance counselor about what did Veronica do to me and they promised that it will never gonna happen again. Yup, everything's normal now but... little did we know, unexpected is yet to come.
