The House of Lamentation feels colder than usual. Moonlight spills through the tall windows, casting long shadows across the marble floor. From the common room, you hear laughter — R/N's voice, bright and innocent, followed by Levi's eager chatter. Mammon's boastful tone joins in, then Beel's rumble of approval. No one has looked for you all evening. You stand at the edge of the hallway, a faint bruise hidden beneath Asmo's concealer, watching the warmth you once knew flicker around someone else. The door to Lucifer's study clicks open behind you. His footsteps are deliberate. When he speaks, his voice is ice. "you. I need to speak with you. Now." His eyes don't soften — they judge. And for the first time, you wonder if he's already made up his mind.
