Page 26 of Falling for Lucifer

W armth surrounded her as Ellodie fought to hold on to the sleep that cradled her.

Her aching boobs won that battle, though, and she slowly opened her eyes, feeling a bit cranky.

Etta had been sleeping better through the night lately and only woke a couple of times to feed, which was great for Ellodie’s beauty rest but terrible for her breasts full of milk every morning.

Slowly, she rolled over and noticed Lucifer held her securely in his arms. She smiled. They hadn’t had time to talk much after her father’s birthday party fiasco the night before. She felt him get into bed hours after she’d fallen asleep, so she knew he was tired.

Ellodie kissed his lips a couple of times, knowing he would sleep through it, before she got up and creeped over to Etta’s bassinet.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her baby still sound asleep.

It would give her time to pump and shower before she made breakfast for her man.

She figured they could debrief over breakfast and spend some quality time together the rest of the day. After last night, it was needed.

Her mind worked overtime as she got ready for her day.

While she pumped, she thought about her parents.

She knew she wanted to speak to her father at some point, but she also knew she wasn’t ready just yet.

Her mother, on the other hand, . . . she wasn’t sure she would ever want to speak to her again.

There was a possibility that the urge for clarity or closure might come about, but that day wouldn’t be for a very long time.

She couldn’t believe she blackmailed her father just to stay in a loveless marriage.

Kamilah had always been materialistic, but Ellodie never knew it was that bad.

She realized her grandmother had to have known the truth or at least suspected it.

Antoinetta Glover was always very perceptive, and she always seemed to have an eye on her son’s wife.

After pumping, she prepared for her shower.

While she let the water steam the room, she brushed her teeth and flossed before stepping into shower.

Her mind wandered to her father and his mistress.

There were so many questions she had. She mainly wanted to know what her father ever saw in her mother in the first place.

She also wondered how the family dynamic would shift with her mother out of the picture.

There was no doubt Kamilah wouldn’t leave easily, so Ellodie knew things would most likely get worse with her family before they got better.

When she got out of the shower, she dried off, and her mind shifted to Lucifer. She still couldn’t believe his father was the mayor. Seeing him had definitely stirred up some feelings for him, and she wanted to be there for him like he had been there for her.

After getting dressed, Ellodie silently walked over to Etta’s bassinet and picked her up gently. She didn’t want her to wake up and cry because Lucifer would wake up and tend to her immediately. He deserved to sleep in after the night they had.

She went through the motions of cooking while keeping an eye on Etta, who woke up when she was almost finished cooking.

It worked out in her favor, though, because she was able to nurse her and get her back to sleep.

Etta would sleep for at least another hour so she could take her man breakfast in bed.

“Wake up, baby,” she whispered after placing the tray with their breakfast at the end of the bed.

Etta was already sleeping in her bassinet. Ellodie was proud of the perfect setup she orchestrated. Lucifer’s half smirk melted her heart. He kept his eyes closed but pulled her close so she lay on top of him. He poked his lips out, and she giggled before pecking him quickly.

Lucifer’s brows furrowed, and he opened one eye. “Now you know damn well that ain’t what I wanted.”

She couldn’t help but giggle again. He always pulled the schoolgirl act out of her. “Baby, come on. I made you breakfast. We have to eat fast before you know who wakes up.”

This time, both of his eyes opened, and he peered up at her before pulling her head down and kissing her like he wanted. When he pulled away, he smoothed her hair back and said, “First of all, we can eat while Etta’s awake. Don’t play her like she isn’t an angel.”

Ellodie playfully sucked her teeth and rolled her eyes, but she wasn’t about to argue with him. Etta was his baby, and she could do absolutely no wrong. It was one of the main things she loved about Lucifer. He loved her daughter just as much as she did.

“Second?”

“Second, there’s something else I would rather eat while baby girl is sleeping,” Lucifer said, and then he flipped them over so he hovered over Ellodie.

She grinned up at him. Her juices flowed from that simple gesture as she fought to remain cool. Something about him undid her in the best ways.

“What’s that, baby?” she asked innocently.

He chuckled before dipping down and kissing her neck. “Take your clothes off,” he uttered. Something about his tone let her know that this was going to be quick. Need hung in the air between them as she undressed. She watched him pull his boxers down, and her pussy ached for his touch.

“Lu . . .” The word came out in an airy whisper as he dipped his head and sucked on her neck. Her back arched off the mattress as she clung to him.

It didn’t take long for him to fill her, and when he did, she gasped. Her nails raked down his back as he slowly worked into her.

“You so wet, baby. I did all that?” He looked down at her in wonder.

All Ellodie could do was nod. She matched his thrusts and did her best to wrap her short legs around his torso. The desire to have him as deep as possible overtook her. She knew he could tell because his strokes became shallow and deep as she rocked into him.

“Daddy . . .”

“I know, baby. I know. You ‘bout to cum on this dick. It’s okay, baby. You have my permission. Wet me up.” His words .

. . his deep voice. It completely undid her.

Her body shook as the orgasm tore through her.

Lucifer did his job and kept his pace perfectly until her body calmed down.

When it did, he pulled out of her and turned her around.

“I need you to keep this fat ass arched, baby. Can you do that?”

He didn’t give her a chance to respond as he slipped into her from behind. Her back straightened some, and he smacked her ass.

“Shit.” She moaned.

“What I say? Keep it arched. Just like that. Good girl.” His strokes were long and deep.

Ellodie’s hand found her clit, and she did her best to balance her perfect arch while playing with her sweet spot.

Their moans became a symphony, and she knew if they got any louder, Etta would wake up and interrupt their moment.

It didn’t matter though. She could hear Lucifer’s breaths becoming shallow.

“You always had this good pussy, Ello? Huh? Shit so fuckin’ good.

I’m ‘bout to nut, baby. Where you want it?”

“Cum inside your pussy, daddy.” She smirked. She knew as soon as the words left her mouth that he would do just as she said, and he did.

“Fuck.” He grunted one last time, and she felt his warm seed seep into her.

That was her cue to collapse. Suddenly, she felt like she could go back to sleep.

While she lay there in a dick-coma, she vaguely felt Lucifer get off the bed.

A minute later, a warm rag touched the back of her thigh, and her eyes popped open.

She groaned and rolled over so she could look at him.

He took his time cleaning her off before he discarded the towel and glanced at the food still sitting on the end of the bed.

She lifted her head slightly and looked at it too.

“Can’t believe we didn’t knock it to the floor,” she said.

He shook his head. “You know I don’t play about my food. I was mindful of it while I was working that pussy over.”

She giggled and flopped back down. “Whatever. Etta’s good?”

“Yeah,” he said as he moved the food closer to them. “She’s knocked out. She must have had that good milk this morning.”

“And did.”

“What brought this on?” he asked, and she could tell his mouth was full of something.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw him digging into one of the plates. She smiled. “I thought my baby could use a good breakfast after the night we had.”

He stopped chewing and swallowed his food before leaning over and giving her a syrupy kiss. When he pulled away, his tone was serious. “You doing okay? I know that was a lot. I apologize for not sticking around last night.”

She shook her head. “I knew you needed a minute. Don’t apologize for that. I’m fine. I just want to make sure we’re okay.”

“Why wouldn’t we be, baby?” he asked before stuffing some eggs into his mouth.

She shrugged. “Your dad was at my parents’ house. I didn’t want you to think I ever knew who he was to you or anything like that. I also don’t want you to worry about having to see him around my family again. It won’t happen as long as I have anything to do with it.”

“It’s all good, my love. I ain’t worried about that at all, but I did want to ask you something.”

Ellodie sat up and stretched, and Lucifer looked like he lost his train of thought for a moment as he looked at her. She laughed. “You good?”

“Huh?” His eyes snapped to hers. “Girl, stop playin’ with me.” He reached out and pinched one of her nipples. Milk oozed out, and she squealed.

“Lucifer!”

“That’s what you get for being so fine.” He took another bite of food and chewed slowly before saying, “And don’t call me Lucifer.”

She rolled her eyes and pulled the sheet up to her chest. “What did you want to ask me, bae?”

She grabbed a warm croissant from the plate of food and gave him her full attention.

“You heard my pops yesterday? When he offered to handle Wes?”

Ellodie stilled and gazed at him. “Yeah . . .”

He nodded. “How you feel about it?”

Ellodie thought about it. She squirmed slightly before she asked, “Handle him how?”

Lucifer shrugged. “He helped Hades out with Harley’s a few years back. It was shit he had coming and all crimes he actually did that put him in prison. Didn’t you tell me not long ago that Wes had some warrants?”

Her eyes grew wide as she nodded. “Yeah.”

“You think they can put him away for some time?”

Ellodie’s mind spun. “I don’t really know.”

“Do you want him to go away for a long time?”

She thought about it. The answer came to her pretty quickly. “I honestly don’t care what happens to him. I just don’t want him around me and Etta.”

He nodded, and they ate in silence for a moment before Lucifer said, “You know if you come forward about what he did to you last month, that could add a significant amount of time to his sentence.”

Ellodie peered at him. She hadn’t thought to go to the police about Wes.

From the time they met, he instilled in her that snitches got stitches.

She wondered now if that was a grooming tactic.

She glanced at Etta’s bassinet, and guilt tried to claw at her, but she shoved it back down.

Wes was not the kind of man she wanted around her daughter, so there was no room for guilt there.

“Okay,” she whispered. “Only if you’ll be there with me.”

Lucifer moved the food aside and pulled her into his lap. He cradled her to his chest. “You think I would ever let you do somethin’ like that alone, love?”

She breathed him in and shook her head. Nothing else needed to be said. Ellodie knew as long as Lucifer lived, she wouldn’t have to do anything alone ever again. She found a great deal of peace in that.
