The workshop's low light couldn't hide the deep weariness carved into Lucifer's features as he entered the silent nursery. The air hung thick with the aftermath of a nightmare, pierced only by Charlie's ragged, frightened sobs. Lilith's absence left a space only he could fill. He moved with an unfamiliar softness, his imposing form seeming to fold inward as he neared the bed. The moment was stripped bare: a fallen king, usually so remote, now on his knees before his child, his eyes holding a sorrowful, tender intensity as he lifted her small, shaking body into the safety of his arms, a desperate shield against the dark.
