Lucifer held onto his prayer beads, eyes closed practicing his breathing. He loathed traveling between dimensions, he could have just appeared at the Stone Tower but he needed time to summon his thoughts, gather them and put them into order. He had always known that Lea was Riken’s child, the only child of Riken, making her the heir to his throne. But with Sebastian being the king of the Fifth Dimension things would become interesting. He would have to make a ruling on how things were split and whether he would have to create a new dimension.
Riken would not be happy that Sebastian had stopped Lea’s transformation that day at the cemetery. Once at the Tower he would demand his daughter. Sebastian though normally calm could become hard to handle his power of rage could come out, that would not be good. Things could happen that would ripple throughout the other dimensions, he couldn’t afford that. The horseless carriage pulled up at the steps of the Stone Tower in no time and Lucifer kicked the door open, scrambling to get out before the driver came around.
He breathed in the air, deeply, the sounds of nature all around him, in the distance he could see smoke coming from Vulcan’s home. The wind gently blew, ink black strands of hair across Lucifer’s face. He looked up to see Cable, Toryn and Vulcan all standing in the entryway of the Tower.
“My sons, how is Lea?”
Toryn stepped forward.
“She’s feverish and having orgasms every few seconds it seems. Sebastian is with her now.”
Lucifer sighed.
“Take me to her, expect Riken to be joining us.”
Lucifer strode past his sons into the Tower he had built for his wife Lily. There were no traces of her left except for the lilies that grew up between the cracks of the thick bricks. He breathed in the air and heard a scream. Rushing up the winding stairs he made his way to the second floor. The circular became square, tight spaces became caverns and a long hallway stretched out before him. Dashing down the oriental carpeted corridor he burst into the master bedroom, stopped short and then turned around blushing. His son was in bed with his wife, both of them naked, writhing against each other, the scent of sex hung heavy in the air.
“I’m . . . just . . . going to go now.”
He dashed back toward the door only to crash into his other sons.
“We heard a scream,” Tryton said, appearing from nowhere.
“Is Lea okay?” Toryn asked.
“Oh for the love of . . . I’m blind, I’ve gone blind. I didn’t need to see your ass, dude!” Cable shouted at his brother.
“Fuck off,” Sebastian yelled over his shoulder.
“Boys!” Lucifer yelled. “Let’s leave them alone. You don’t seem to realize this is traumatizing your old man.”
His sons took a giant step back allowing for Lucifer to close the doors. He blew out a breath of relief but that soon turned to a grimace when he heard a roar from the downstairs.
“Riken is here,” Lucifer said weakly. A pounding up the stairs heralded the angry demon’s arrival.
“Where is my daughter?” He demanded
Another scream sounded behind the door and Lucifer held tight to the door knobs. Riken stepped forward anger and concern etched on his face.
“My lord he could be hurting her, please, allow me to . . .,” Riken started.
Lucifer cut him off.
“My son would not hurt your daughter, besides she's um fine . . . very fine in fact. Please wait for a bit . . .”
Another scream sounded and Lucifer winced.
“I promise you she will be fine.”
“My lord you don’t understand, she must go through the change fully otherwise she will kill him,” Riken explained calmly.
Lucifer paled. He stood aside and let Riken through. The demon rushed forward and pushed the doors wide open.
“Sebastian you must stop, you’ll kill yourself and her if you continue.”
Sebastian looked up and growled, his eyes black bottomless pools. Lucifer sighed, going to the bed, not caring if his son hated him, he yanked back the covers and pulled Sebastian off of Lea, causing the demon to hit the wall. Sebastian was up in a flash, growling, claws unsheathed ready to fight.
“Sebastian!” Lucifer yelled.
The room became hot, thick with heat, flames formed in the palms of Lucifer’s hands. Inky blackness spread out behind Sebastian, dark red flecks glittered in his eyes. Things were getting out of hand. Cable stepped in between both demons and froze them in place. Although frozen, they were very aware of everything that was happening to them.
“Both of you stop! This is about Lea’s health. Sebastian put cloths on, dad put that fire away. For fuck’s sake am I the only adult here?” Cable asked.
“Excuse me who died and made you think you’re the oldest runt?” Toryn asked crossing his arms over his chest.
“Yeah, runt? Last I checked you’re the youngest,” Trytan said amused.
Cable shook his head and rolled his eyes.
“I need you to allow my servants into the tower, they need to finish the change,” Riken said hurriedly.
“Oh, hell no! Those son of a bitches can stay where ever the hell they are. I refuse to be anywhere near them,” Toryn said glaring at Riken.
“She’ll die if you don’t,” Riken said.
