I woke up with a smile on my face. I moved to lay onto my stomach with my face to the side. My hair was all over face and I was so at peace that my muscles didn't want to work. It was better than I imagined. A blushed crawled up my face as I remembered the acts of late last night and early this morning.

A large warm hand started making it's way up my spine and I couldn't stop my grin from spreading. "Morning Princess." he kissed my forehead.

"Mmm" was all I could manage. I smiled with my eyes closed and tight-lipped.

"I made brunch, but first kiss me."

"Huh?"

"Your lips, princess. I want your lips." oh god, he was adorable. I smiled and kissed him. He didn't care about morning breath or anything. I encircled my arms around his neck and pulled him closer.

I broke apart for air. "Good Morning." I bit my bottom lip. I expected this to be awkward. That I would be shy or say something stupid but it felt normal, like this was my everyday life. "I'm beyond exhausted," I said closing my eyes with my hands still around his neck.

He laid on top of me, warming me up all over. We laid in silence and I don't know when or how but we both fell asleep again. It felt so good laying in his arms that I didn't want to wake up. The knocking on the door woke me. I groaned. I didn't want to wake up my sleeping devilish handsome man. I closed my eyes hoping they would leave and come back later but it's like they never used a door and kept knocking. I laid still hoping and praying it would stop and eventually it did. Two people crossed my mind and it was either my next door neighbor from hell or my pervert friend which happens to also be my neighbor.

I curled up into Lucifer. I never knew how much I missed the city until now. Lucifer never had a problem with neighbors and mine didn't try to steal what was mine. No one in my apartment block approached us when we were together. These small-town life problems.

I turned to my side and stared at the sleeping face of my beauty. He looked at peace, so much so that it wasn't even a joke. His eyelids closing locking his beautiful eyes away. His almost feminine lips closed, looking perfectly kissable. I ran a hand through his silky black hair, I envied his black hair. It was natural and beautiful. I moved away to check his tattoo, still being the most beautiful and sexiness thing I had ever seen. I traced it with my finger. A rose, a simple beautiful rose.

I returned to his face only to find him staring at me already. "Hi," I said shyly. I was caught in action.

"Princess." He kissed the side of my head. "What time is it?"

"I don't know but its evening," I said with confidence. I woke up the afternoon's side so by the time we fell asleep, I'm guessing it's probably past six or five making it night time. "I'm hungry."

"Get dressed, I'll go make food," he said but didn't leave me.

"Couldn't this be a hotel." I held onto him. "Where we order in and chill in bed." I sigh. "but I like a man that cooks." I kissed his neck.

"Let's get food and then we move further from there." he kissed my forehead again and left the bed.

I watched as he walked out of the room in his grey sweatpants and nothing else. I wonder how I got so lucky, I moved on from Ben and landed myself a man that cares for me, for my being. He puts me above all and it makes me crave his love and attention even more. I loved Ben. I loved Ben to the extent where no man could take his place and no man would ever but Mr. Black, Lucifer, defines the acts of love. He was what I wanted and whether I have accepted his monster side or not, I didn't care. I wanted him and I knew I would have to adjust to his job and to the side he has yet to show me.

I was so involved with Lucifer's presence that my surrounding didn't matter. This wasn't the mattress I fell asleep on nor was this room I spent most of my time in. Everything was different, the ceiling, the bed, the lampshade, everything. I couldn't breathe, this was too much. It was like Lucifer could sense something was wrong. He rushed to my side but it was to late the damage was done, I was having a panic attack.

He pulled me on to his lap and started making circles onto my skin. "Rose, listen to me. I won't let anyone harm you. You are safe with me." It felt as if my lungs had stopped working and fear kicked in. Everything was spinning.

"I...I...I" I couldn't form a sentence. All I could think of was the days in the darkroom, not knowing if I would ever see the light of day again.

"Hush." He did a breathing exercise with me and held me tightly. We sat quietly for some time. He didn't complain, all he did was hold me tight and never let me go. "Rose?"

"Why would you move me? Why?" I asked him. "I was walking with Candice and then next thing I know we wake up, chained to the roof. That time frame was lost but I remembered. When I was locked up, I remembered and all I ask is that you never take my freewill from me."

"Princess, the plane arrived early and I didn't want to wake you." he kissed my forehead. "I won't do it again."

"Promise me, Lucifer. I can't go through something like that again. I can't."

"I promise. I'll lay my life down if it meant having you at peace."

I nodded. "Where are we?"

"Well my love," he smirked. "Welcome to Paris."
