She's only wearing that outfit when she's at the party.


As soon as the Detective says those words, I can't be but let a small smile slip on my face. Ah that was a fun time. Stile's turns his head so he's looking me in the eyes, a small mischievous spark in his eyes. 

I nod my head slightly, answering his silent question. Yes that was us, and it was damn fun. I know Lucifer giving us a strange look for our silent exchange and I just wink.

"We've had a similar case back home. Do you have any leads?" I look at the case file she passes me and I read as she talks, Stiles peering over my shoulder.

"There was a Private Investigator, Simon Horman, that got hired to find the murderer or murderers, he phoned his boss saying that he found something, only to disappear the next day. We've found him again only recently and he's going to be at a club this evening. The only thing that was left at the prison when we visited it, was a small snake figurine." 

I raise an eyebrow when I see the name on the file, a small spark of excitement blooming inside of me. A while ago I got a werewolf to hide the evidence of us being there, it seems we get to meet again. 

"I can go in undercover, I've worked with his brother and he'll hopefully talk to me." I suggest in a manner that hopefully comes across helpful but I can see in Lucifer's eyes that he doesn't believe me. Damn it.

"I think that sounds good, Lucifer can be in the club with you whilst Dylan and I will keep perimeter." Chloe finalises the plan with a determined nod of her head and I quickly send a text to Jeramiah, letting him know the plan. 

"We'll be back in a hour" Stiles gives a short nod before we part to get ready for tonight, we walk towards the entrance when I feel my arm being tugged back.

"Nina, you said that was your name didn't you?" Lucifer gives me an intense gaze and I nod my head, Stiles hands twitching encase he needs to pull me behind him. "Tell me, what do you desire"

I feel Lucifer's mojo swirling around me but I bat it away with my powers, I pull him towards me with a tight grip, a small snarl in my voice.

"Don't you dare try to use your devil mojo on me again." I release him with a sweet smile as he stares at me flabbergasted, maybe he could just ask me what he wants to ask instead of forcing me. 

Didn't dear old daddy teach him manners?

Moving through the crowd, Ellie subtly scans the room for her target. Ignoring the advances from several men, she smirks when she see's the werewolf in a private VIP section.

"Eyes on target" She mutters into the coms in her ear and she takes a drink from the bar before walking over to her target. 

Muttering a spell, the coms in her ear loose connection and she bribes the bodyguard to let her pass.

"Now what do we have her? Sweetheart I think your in the wrong place." Not realising who it was, the werewolf in question calls mockingly to the angry doppelganger. 

"Don't you sweetheart me Simon." Her voice was a dark snarl and Lucifer watched from the distance as their target stood up in panic, pure fear on his face. 

"Interesting." Lucifer murmured as he started to move closer.

"You're supposed to be dead" Simon stuttered, his whole body shaking in fear.

"Yes well, as you can see, I am very much alive" Ellie's eyes flashed red as she snapped a bone in his leg, without lifting a finger. "You two timed me Simon, you were to get rid of the evidence and nothing else. Yet you decided to play detective and 'investigate' it. Now I'm having to clean up your mess." 

Lucifer watched as Simon pressed himself against the wall, Ellie only stepping a bit closer. He moved closer, now in hearing distance and he hid a smirk as the new detective threatened to rip out his spleen right there.

"I'm sorry! I'm so so sorry. Please your majesty, forgive me." Simon got on his knees and Ellie gripped his throat tightly, anger in her eyes.

"I don't know what this 'majesty' bullshit is but you are very close to having your heart ripped out." Knowing full well Lucifer was listening, Ellie casted a silencing spell and kicked Simon back onto the floor. Lifting her drink to her lips, she smiled in amusement a wicked spark in her eyes. "You can redeem yourself."

"Anything, please, anything" 

"A Nogitsune, find me anyway to separate it from it's host." Simon's eyes widened and he nodded his head fiercely. "I know about changing the host but that's a last resort, now quickly contact those little puppies of yours. I want results in 10 hours, run and you die. Hide and you die. Fail and you die. Do anything apart from getting me that information and you die. Get it?"

Simon limps from the private booth and Lucifer goes up to join Ellie, who was searching the club for Stiles. She made eye contact with her mate and gave a small nod, she was okay.

"That certainly wasn't done by the book." Lucifer remarked with a raised eyebrow, trying not to focus on how much she looked like a Queen watching her subjects. Her hands were on the shiny golden bars as she looked down on the people beneath her, it was truly a sight to behold.

"And when have you ever done something by the book Lucifer? You would still be in Hell if you did." Ellie turned to him with a small smirk, taking a sip from her drink beside her.

"You know."

"For a person who shouts it out everywhere he goes, you really shouldn't be that surprised. I'm surprised you haven't been put in a psychiatric ward by now with some of the stuff you come out with." 

"What did you do to that man? I didn't take you as one who tortures." Lucifer felt himself wanting Ellie more and more, a tether pulling him towards her, every cell in his body telling him to protect her.

"Oh darling, you're the devil, I thought you knew what real torture was." And with that Ellie pats Lucifer's chest gently before walking away. 


*******************


I leave Lucifer to follow Stiles, whose body language just changed dramatically. I recognise the look that came over his face and it seems I may need to move my plans forward.

"I've never come across someone like you before" His voice was cold as he stopped in the car park outside the club and I tilt my head with a small smile.

"Well I'm honoured but let's be real, there will never be anyone like me" 

Slowly he turns around and I walk up to him, both of us knowing exactly what we're capable of.

"Nice to meet you Void."
