Athena's POV

I groaned as I moved my head to the side, the thing I was lying on which I assumed was a pillow was the softest I've ever been on.

I peeled open my eyes, slowly adjusting to the light in my surroundings.

"Why am I here?" I asked myself, clearly confused as to why I was in a man's bed in different clothes than I had worn to the club.

"Ah, you see little mate you are mine and you aren't going anywhere, you will NEVER be out of my grasp." A handsome looking guy said with a smirk on his lips.

Then the memories came back, hitting me like a truck weighing a tonne. My best friend. The club. The bathroom. The guys.

'Oh no' I thought, 'I have been kidnapped.'

I must have had a look of horror on my face for the guy's sexy demeanor changed to one of caution and worry.

I started hyperventilating, my lungs lack air.

I couldn't breathe. I was having one of my rare panic attacks, the only times I had these were when I was in fear of my mother's beating and that was a long time ago.

The guy sat beside me on the bed and started rubbing my back gently and as corny as it sounds I felt better instantly, it's like we were bonded and I could feel his relief.

As soon as I was okay I scooted away from him to the other side of the bed, he was still my kidnapper after all, there is no telling what he is capable of and what he wants with me.

"What do you want?" I asked in a shaky voice.

"You" was his simple reply.

'Me?' I asked myself, 'Oh god was he a rapist?!'

"No, I'm not a rapist, that's what filthy humans do." He said with disgust looking me in the eyes.

'Did I say that out loud?' I asked myself.

'No you didn't' a voice said in my head, I jumped at the sudden intrusion.

"Did you just speak in my head?" I asked out loud this time, narrowing my eyes at his smirking figure.

"Yes I did"

"What are you?" I asked, feeling a tad bit scared of the situation I was in.

"You don't want to know" he replied.

"Yes I do" I pushed.

Something inside me just wanted to tell him all my secrets and him to tell me his, it's like privacy isn't needed between us, like we were one.

"I am a creature everyone fears for being ruthless and merciless. I am the reason even demons cower under their beds in fear."

"Who?"

"I'm Lucifer Archangel or you can say Hades, the Devil or Satan. I come by many names, I am the God of Death and Riches, the Angel of Darkness and the Serpent of Temptation." He said.

I was stunned after his confession, this must be a joke.

"Your joking right?" I asked, any moment now a camera man would come out and say, 'Boo we fooled you.'

"You want me to prove it?"

"Enlighten me" I said, I didn't know where the sudden confidence came from to be sassing my kidnapper, I must have a death wish, ironically he said he was the God of Death.

Suddenly I felt a huge gust of wind, literally blowing me out of my thoughts.

Looking up I nearly fainted at what I saw.

"Am I dreaming?" I asked no one in particular.

"No you aren't darling, this is very very real" he answered my rhetorical question.

In front of me stood a pair of black, thick, sharp and long pair of wings, the beholder none other than Lucifer.
