Embrace Of The Lucifer novel Chapter 5

Lucifer.

"Sir these are the files you were asking for," Jonathan, his assistant, stated. Lucifer took the files and began to examine them. He had made an agreement with Samuels for their new initiatives. As a result, he needed to review all of the data before making a final judgment.

"Like always, you will get the deal dude," Adrian, his childhood friend, smirked. Lucifer didn't respond to the comment and continued with his job, since his friend Adrian was an immature twenty-seven-year-old guy to him.

"Come on dude why you are always so moody?" He said and rolled his eyes earning a glare from Lucifer. "I am busy, can't you see that?" He said bluntly.

"Whatever man, sometimes you seriously bore me. Now just tell me if you're arranging a party for your birthday?" Adrian asked him seriously.

"I'm not any teenager who has to throw a party every year on his birthday. I have important things to do other than throwing stupid parties," he said and placed the file on the desk.

Adrian stared at his friend as if he was crazy and then spoke up. "What? Come on don't do that man everyone is excited about your birthday. Everyone expects you to have a blast on your birthday," he stated emphatically.

Lucifer was becoming irritated by his friend, and he recognized that Adrian would not leave him alone until he consented. Adrian got away with whatever he said to Lucifer his whole life since he was his childhood friend.

"You can plan it if you want," Adrian grinned like a small child. 

"But you have to arrange everything I'm not doing a shit," Lucifer told him.

"Yes of course," he said and left the room.

When he was finished with his task. He recalled he needed to go back to his father's house to get certain files from there. And going there implies he might have to confront that girl.

'August'

'No woman had these effects on me, and that little girl is playing with my head.'

But he couldn't take his gaze away from her stunning eyes. Her silky-smooth skin, and her pink delicious lips, he longed to touch. He ran his hand through her hair.

'How do I stop this?'

'For God's sake, she is a maid. It should not be difficult for me to forget about her.'

He took out his phone and phoned a number.

"Hey, Lucifer," Jessica purred.  'What a whore.'

"Come to my office, right now," he commanded.

"On my way," she said and hung up.

August.

August had a really rough day since she had a lot of stuff to do. Martha informed her that Lucifer's birthday was approaching nearer and they had planned to celebrate, which was why the maids were required to clean the entire home. She had to tidy the living room where visitors were expected. They had to prepare the lunch for at least a hundred people, so they had to plan ahead of time.

"You can do your work," he stated as he returned to the room where he had been earlier. She figured it was his personal gym. His perspiring body and the towel wrapped around his neck explained it to her.

Ten minutes had already passed, she was exhausted, and her task was nearly over. She had the impression that someone was keeping an eye on her. But she was too exhausted to consider it. 

***

He kept an eye on her, from his gym. He was watching her every move. Even in her filthy clothing, he thought she was gorgeous. His heart was racing as she brushed her hair away from her face with the back of her palm. He observed her while she focused on her task.

He saw that she was different from other girls, in fact, she was quite unusual. She wasn't a money-hungry girl, nor was she a desperate young woman who would die to sleep with men like Lucifer.

Women would discreetly watch him and gaze at him with lusty eyes. But when he saw her, he could tell she was terrified, her eyes portrayed it all. She didn't even make eye contact with him. Her reactions of seeing him without a shirt was distinct compared to other women. He couldn't help but grin at her naive personality.

Something in his life has changed since she walked through the front door of his father's house. He wasn't sure if it was meritorious or abominable, but he was getting acclimated to the change in no time.

His life had always been a mystery to him. Everyone, even his own family, was perplexed by his views and personality. He lived in a cave with nothing but darkness around him.

Girls like August were uncommon to find at the time, owing to the men's lack of respect. But any man would be lucky to be with a woman like August.

Just imagining her with some other male, made his blood boil with anger. 

He pondered as he stepped into the gym, locking the door and cleaning his body with the towel. He was about to leave the gym to take a shower when he noticed she had already left. He entered the bathroom, shut the door, and turned on the shower.

'He would go to any length to make her his forever. But every time he thought about it, he refused to comply, even though he knew everything deep down in his soul and heart. Despite the fact that he was not aware of it at the time. He understood deep down that he felt something different for her. He was running away from the same sensation over the years, but he had no idea that the presence of that girl in his life would change his fate forever.'
