“My queen is a very private person,” I said. The dukes traded a look, not sure anymore. A private woman wouldn’t have exposed herself in front of all the men in the room and writhed like a bitch in heat, but the dukes knew better than to contradict me.

The dukes are all idiots then… but they are in charge of Hell…

I raised the angelblade and buried it in the imposter’s guts. Her blood splashed onto the two dukes’ faces, and they leapt back.  It served them right for coveting my Bunny, even though the one in front of us was a fake.

When Ragnarö was remaking me, he hadn’t discovered that his future queen was pregnant with another man’s son.

Which is weird considering he saw them having sex in the fantasy crystal ball realm or at least saw them naked together afterwards. It stands to reason that they would do so in real life as well…

“Yes! Yes! So good! More, please! Such a big cock fucking me! Oh, yes!” Part of the shouting was probably for my benefit. While I considered her as nothing and nobody to me, she insisted on treating me as her rival.

“You’ve got one chance if you want to live, Hellen,” I snarled. “You’ll run back to Lucifer, and you’ll do exactly what I tell you to do. If you misstep or betray me, you’ll wear your insides out instead of wearing your own or anyone else’s face.

A child’s voice chimed in my mind, tentative at first before turning brazen and eager. Do not cry. The child’s voice comforted me.

I have no need to go through the tedious growing process like a Fae. I’m the descendant of the most powerful Archangel, Hell King, Asgard Goddess, Morrigan, and Titan.

Lucifer looked shocked and highly alarmed and shifted to his devil form. Yet I still dwarfed him by a foot. “What the fuck is this new form of yours?” he demanded bitterly. “You hid your power and your beast from me, boy! How dare you?”

Beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I steadied my legs and pushed back the punch of his power. Lucifer hissed in displeasure and increased his archangel power. I clenched my teeth as I resisted the tsunami-like weight of it. “Give up and beg for forgiveness, son, and I might let you live,” Lucifer promised, but I caught a trace of fear in his dark green eyes.
Jsalt80
Why is it that when Loki was battling the three by himself he was winning. Now one on one with Lucifer and he’s struggling?
