Chapter 21

Lucifer- 

As soon as I heard Rosemarys voice calling me I knew something was wrong but I never imagined seeing this. The fury raging inside of me couldn’t be stopped. I killed them to fast, I wanted them to suffer but I had to get to Rosemary quick. She had taken a beating and I was furious she didn’t call for me sooner. No telling what they did to her. I gave Rosemary my word that I wouldn’t come to her unless she called for me. I hated myself for that now. I should’ve been watching after her. I looked down at her bloodied naked body. Her eyes were swollen shut, black and blue. She had cuts everywhere and her lip was split open. I lifted her up gently and held her in my arms. I sobbed uncontrollably at the sight of her and kissed her forehead. “I’m so so sorry. I love you! I love you Rosemary. I’m here now.” I knew where I needed to take her. 

In a flash we were in the garden. I ran to the fountain and immersed her body in the water lifting her head. I was so disturbed by the sight of her I was shaking while I slowly poured the water over her battered face and body. I began to inspect 

her to check for broken bones. Her ribs were broken. “I’m so sorry” I whispered holding her in my arms in the water. This fountain was no ordinary fountain. It had healing powers beyond mans capabilities. I could see she was starting to heal. She started to wake and frantically screamed, fighting and cursing me. 

“It’s me Rosemary, Lucifer, you’re safe Now! I killed them all. No one will ever hurt you again! I’m here!” 

She stoped screaming but her body was still convulsing in shock as she spoke between sobs; “they’re...all... evil Lucifer. They cage...people... so...cruel.” 

I could see most of her cuts healing but there was still blood coming from behind her. “I think..there’s glass..will you check?” She asked and turned her back towards me. My heart sank seeing her like this and noticing where the blood was coming from. “I’m going to pull out the glass as gentle as I can Rosemary. I’m sorry I’m going to have to invade your privacy to do this. I will take no pleasure in doing so. Once I’m done these waters will heal your wounds.” I began removing the glass as she cried. This moment was one of the worst thing I’ve ever experienced. I’d never forgive myself for not watching over her, even though she had told me not to.
