Chapter 1:

It was about 2 weeks after Lucifer and Chloe had said that they loved each other for the very first time, right before Lucifer left to rule Hell once again. Nothing had hurt Chloe more than the loss of the man who held her heart, she couldn't help herself to feel guilty if she had trusted her instincts instead of her fears this wouldn't have happened. That guilt was eating at her conscience.

The sparkles in her eyes had disappeared and she had lost a lot of weight due to her not wanting to eat as just when she was forced.

Her days were all the same waking up after a restless sleep, dreaming of how it could have been. Taking care of her daughter but without her usual smile, going to the precinct until it was time for her to go home. If that wasn't worse enough she had started to drink big amounts of alcohol from the moment Trixie was in her bed until she would pass out in another restless sleep.

The moment she was starting to make mistakes was more than enough for Daniel. He needed to talk to his ex-wife, only to protect their daughter.

"Chloe, do you have a moment?" Daniel asked trying to hide the worry in his voice.

"I don't have anything to say to you. Don't have some celebration to plan? You have what you always wanted. Lucifer is gone and forever this time." Chloe snapped. She knew the moment that the words left her mouth that this wasn't fair but for now she really didn't care at all. Daniel had hated Lucifer from the start of their partnership.

"Chloe, I don't recognize you anymore. It's not the first time Lucifer left you and you know it. Don't let that lying bastard get to you." Daniel said with a tightened jaw.

Chloe looked up the fire of anger in her eyes. She slapped her ex-husband in the face with the palm of her hand so hard that half the precinct heard it. Her hand leaving a print on his cheek.

"Don't ever talk about him like that, you don't know what for a situation he must be living right now. He never lied to us. He was the best partner I ever had even better than I even knew at the time. He gave up this life to go home to stop everything from escalating and the only thing you can do is talk bad about him?" Chloe said angrily almost yelling.

"Chloe, you are out of your mind, the man is the actual devil. I know you love him although I don't understand why. I still have eyes. Why don't you ask for vacation and try to solve your emotions?" Daniel said still shocked about the slap in his face but he wasn't going to hold it against her. She wasn't in her right set of mind at the moment and Dan knew it.

"He left to keep us safe. If I had admitted my feelings earlier this wouldn't have happened." Chloe said forming tears in her eyes, "He never lied to us, Dan." She cried.

"I know he didn't Chloe but he never showed me proof either," Dan said

"I have known, I have seen it and still I didn't trust him as he trusted me all these years." Chloe cried now even harder.

Daniel couldn't help himself and took her in his arms.

"Maybe you are right, Dan. Maybe I need some time alone. Could you take care of Trixie for a few weeks?" Chloe sobbed looking at him.

Chloe was a wreck and even the lieutenant had noticed it. He had only been there for a few months after taking over from Marcus but he also saw how tight that partnership had become the last few days. They had a rough time behind them even he saw that he didn't know what really had happened between them but he wanted his team at full potential so it wasn't a hard decision to give Chloe Decker her three weeks of Vacation.

Chloe wanted to be far away from Los Angeles as possible just like she had done the moment she had seen the truth about Lucifer. This time it wasn't because she feared him but to grief the loss of her love. He wasn't dead but he was in a place where he wouldn't be able to come back from. She lost him that's the only thing she had in mind, she couldn't follow him to that place.

She had to find herself again, come to terms with everything that had happened. She was sure though even if she needed to create chaos in Heaven that she would see him back someday. In his eyes, she was too good for Hell but she would go to him one way or another of that she was sure, even if she needed to argue with his father about it.

Daniel had been so sweet to take Trixie in for the next few weeks maybe it was better for her she couldn't go with her anyway. Her daughter needed to go to school.

That evening she sat down with Trixie and Daniel at the table at her home.

"Monkey, you are going to sleep with daddy for a few weeks. Mommy needs some time to think about some things. She needs to go away for a few weeks." Chloe said softly.

"Because you miss Lucifer?" Trixie asked. She had seen her mother going sadder with the day, hearing her mom crying herself to sleep every night.

"Yes, monkey, mommy is missing Lucifer very much but I can't travel after him to get him back to us," Chloe said fighting the tears.

"Because you can't go to Hell," Trixie responded.

"No, monkey, I don't know where Lucifer is." Chloe tried but Trixie wouldn't have any of it.

"Mom, I am twelve now, I know Lucifer is the real devil and is back to Hell. He never lied to us." Trixie responded seriously.

Chloe looked at Dan who just shrugged, "Monkey, mommy will go on a little trip and you have to stay with daddy."

"Mom, I understand that you need time alone. I need my mommy back. I will go pack my things and go with daddy but don't forget to call me." Trixie said hugging her mom before going to her room.

"When did our girl become so smart." Chloe smiled sadly.

An hour later she said goodbye to her daughter. She took one of Maze's hidden bottles of alcohol and poured herself a scotch before she took place behind her laptop. She needed to go to a place where she wouldn't be confronted with God and the devil.

She opened the site to book a vacation when she found what she needed. A vacation in an Arabic land, all-inclusive. It was just what she needed. The charms of little town called El Rabra. She booked a ticket, leaving in a few days. Just time enough to make sure she had everything she needed.

She poured herself another glass when the moment she drunk the first one before crying again. Like she did every night.

Lucifer sat in on his throne looking over Hell. He was more feared by the demons now than that he ever had been. The demons knew he didn't take it well that they had defied him. He was about six months back in Hell.

Squee and Dromos had been imprisoned for those six months with just enough food to keep them alive. Today would be the day that they would be made an example for the rest.

Gazoch who had taken the place of Mazikeen as his right hand stood before the throne with his head bowed. He was one of the few who had refused to take possession of a body and had stayed in Hell. Even demons who had obeyed him were afraid of this lord of Hell.

Lucifer saw Gazoch so he opened his wings and flew down. He stood tall in front of the demon, his eyes cold as the ice on earth.

"Everything is ready, my lord," Gazoch said with a shiver in his voice.

Lucifer didn't react to what Gazoch said but shifted in his devil form, making him even taller, broader and more intimidating. He walked to the area in front of his throne. The circle of demons opened like the red sea for Moses, they all took a step back, except the guards in the middle of the royal plaza. They were guarding a weakened Dromos and Squee.

Lucifer looked at them while he took a few steps forward.

"You defied me, knowing very well I banned possession eon's ago," Lucifer said in his dark, low devil voice, "You will be punished and everyone will be forced to see what will happen in the future when it happens again."

Dromos didn't say much, it wasn't something for him to beg for his life. Squee, on the other hand, bowed to his ruler, "Please, my lord. Give me another chance? I won't defy you ever again."

Lucifer tilted his head to the right, "You wasted that chance the moment you defied me a second time and refused to go back to hell as I ordered you. To the rest of the demons watch carefully, this can be you if you push my buttons. They will be torn apart limb for bloody limb. Bring them to the fighting arena." Lucifer ordered.

It was only a few minutes later that Lucifer sat in his throne at a replica of a colosseum from ancient Rome but in dark Hell forged stones, Gazoch standing beside his throne. The demons sat in the stone stands, with Dromos and Squee in the fighting ring.

The guards standing at both sides of the door that kept the hounds from running into the area. Lucifer was still in his devil form, "release the hounds!" he yelled, his voice booming through hell.

The guards opened the doors, four fifteen hands tall pitch black hounds with fire red eyes came through the door, growling. They hadn't had something to eat in two days, just enough to make the hounds hungry.

The guards closed the doors, making sure that Dromos and Squee couldn't escape. The hounds circled around the weak demons. This was a party for them getting demons for dinner. It was now that Dromos needed to admit that he was scared but he knew begging for his life would be useless.

The hounds jumped on the demons two pulling on each side of Dromos pulling of his arms, the demon cried out in pain. One hound took Squee's arm while the other pulling his leg, Squee was already unconscious. The hounds were known to play with their dinner before eating it. The screams were agonizing even for hell standards.

This was needed to bring the fear back into the demons, he was succeeding. They had to confident last years also because it had been eon's that a demon was thrown for the hounds. It was the worst punishment thinkable for a demon. The fact that Lucifer used it made it clear that he wasn't joking.

It took hours before the demons were eaten, nothing was left of them. The arena fell silent the moment Lucifer stood up from his throne, "let this be a lesson to the rest. I have hounds enough to feed. You are all dismissed." Lucifer said coldly before he took off to the throne that stood in the center of Hell. The one was only reachable with his wings.

He hated it the monster he had to be here in Hell but they took everything from him. It was time they knew what monster he could be. They would feel the wrath of the devil who lost his first and only love.
