#reader x lute

ೃ⁀➷ I'm dead.. wow, what a way to put it- but yeah, I was brutally killed by one of those filthy little demons in hell. I was.. well.. still am basically the ruler of heaven, and I had my assistant Lute, she helped and did all of the dirty work for me while I just watched with a smile.

I didn't know an angel like me could die. Since I'm divine.. or was. But wait- that wasn't my end, of course not. I am now taunting her mind, yeah.. somehow I still have my own thoughts but.. in her mind, only she can see me. She wasn't going to get rid of me so easily since, I saw all her mental breakdowns, god she looked like a baby.

She was in full despair about me, and I loved it. God she just looked so pathetic.. her face. She even kept my halo as a bracelet I mean.. what type of psycho does that? She's just so obsessed with me, it was cute, and I can't lie.

I knew it. I knew she loved me, she was head over heels for me and I used that against her, why? Because I'm awesome and I can do whatever I want, that's why, and I just.. loved.. seeing that face.. that face of sadness, of loss, of.. despair.

She looked hopeless. Until I decided to be kind, you know? Because I'm a very kind person.. so I decided to show myself to her. As she was literally ruining my whole office I mean.. she broke my favourite guitar, why? I don't know, she's just naturally crazy I guess, psycho.

She was just singing and breaking my stuff, like jeez.. how to be a drama queen right?.. I then appeared. Sitting on my desk as I watched her, "you do know it costs me a lot to get that painting right?." I asked sarcastically, it was a joke but god.. she's just so tight, as soon as she saw me her eyes went blank, she stared at me for about.. like 4 minutes, I'm just that pretty.

"Wait.. how.. how are you..? you're alive!" She said as she then smiled so brightly, as she then started running towards me as I quickly slapped her across the face, damn. I didn't know I could touch her, this is great! It felt amazing to finally hit her.. gosh that sounded awful.

"Get your act together. Are you really going to let them do as they please?" I asked angrily. As she then looked up at me shocked, she then furrowed her eyebrows "no.. I.. we have to go." She said sternly grabbing her strength back.

"We need to show them! Your alive! And divine! They have to fear you!" She said as I rolled my eyes.. gosh she's crazy.. but still that's why she's my assistant right?.

"Okay, turn the crazy down a few notches. I'm not alive" I said with a chuckle, as I saw her face starting to drain, "but.. I'm looking at you right now-" she started, "I'm in your head. Your crazy went up a lot." I said with a smile.

She stared up at me, terrified.. and then I noticed sadness going to her face. "Oh gosh don't start crying. Or I swear I'm leaving" I said, "But.. I.. I don't get it." She said as she was panicking a little. As I chuckled there was a long silence, "Wait.. did.. did you know?" She asked softly and out of nowhere. Her eyes on the floor, lost.

I already knew what she was asking as I let out a dark chuckle, "you think I'm stupid?" I asked taking a few steps till I was right in front of her. As she looked up at me with the same despair in her eyes, which.. kinda was hot seeing her all sad. Wait.. was I getting turned on by her despair?

I then raised a hand to her chin making her roughly look up at me. As she blushed slightly staring up at me with those doe eyes full of.. sadness. I smirked "answer me, do you think I'm stupid?" I asked again but this time turning a little serious as then I felt her hands come up and be placed on my arms, as I stared at her.

She then tried to move closer as she tried to kiss me but I grabbed her face putting a disgusted face on "wow. Don't get too excited, who do you think you are?" I said with a snarl as I chuckled. She looked hurt as I felt.. pity for her sad face as then I rolled my eyes "fine" as I said that, I then grabbed her and pulled her into a kiss. But not a gentle soft one, I rough one.

As she quickly kissed me back I then leaned into her I turned us around till she had her back to my desk as we kissed, my tongue traveling inside her mouth, as she let out a soft moan by the feeling.

I felt a bit of pride as I bucked my hips into hers she whined softly into the kiss, as I then pulled back "you desperate?" I asked softly as she grabbed my face and forced me back to her, kissing as I then grabbed her face pulling her off after a few seconds.

"You're not in control." I clarified. As she stared up at me with desire, yes I've been with a lot of women but this felt.. like.. different? No. I just love how she looks.. the despair looks so hot.

"So.. you really wanna do this?" I asked a bit disinterested as I stared down at her holding her chin making her stare into my eyes as I then smirked "yes.. please" she said softly with a submissive beg, didn't expect her to have that.. little submissive and begging voice it was cute.

I kept kissing her, my tongue traveling as then her hands went up to my belt under my dress, as she started to unbuckle my pants that were under my long white dress as I smiled softly into the kiss.

As then I made us fall onto the floor with me on top of course, as we kept kissing she threw my belt somewhere else. As I took off my pants with my belt, as we continued to kiss we were already heavy breathing, panting into the deep passionate kiss, as then I started to take off her clothes for her as well cause.. I'm a gentleman.

I smiled into the kiss when her hands got on me. One touching my breast under my dress as her cold fingers passed on my nipple, squeezing it in between her two fingers as it made me hiss into the kiss, "oh so you want trouble?" I asked in between kisses as I was in between her legs.

Both of us already naked.. well. The only thing I had was my white dress and she had her top ridden up, hanging over her breasts as I raised an eyebrow, seeing her so.. flustered, shy, and so exposed to me as my eyes drifted, from her eyes to her hard nipples, and then down to her wet folds as I bit my lip and then stared at her face.

"Why so nervous?" I asked as I was smiling down at her as I grabbed the back of her head, making her yelp as I pulled her closer "start eating." I ordered as I already had my legs spread, as she was on her knees she then went down.

As then I had my free hand behind me. On the floor to support my weight as I relaxed looking at her submissive eyes staring up at me as she then started to stick her tongue out and pass it in between my folds as I raised an eyebrow.

"Who do you think I am?" I pulled her head slightly as she stared up at me as she then relaxed and dug in, "yeah.. we are not doing that romantic.. disgusting, stuff" I said as then she started to eat me out, squelching sounds from her wet and warm tongue surprisingly she moved her tongue very well on my pussy.

I let out a few gasps and some whined in between gritted teeth at the feeling, gosh where did she learn to do all that? I thought as I panted, throwing my head back at the feeling, I felt how her tongue went up and down in between my folds as my thighs twitched, and she would stop to suck on my clit as it made me groan.

I looked down at her as she kept eating me out as I then smirked down at her, a bit flustered as I chuckled in between sounds, "you enjoying this?" I asked softly "eating out your superior. You are just a dirty little slut aren't you?" I asked degrading her, as I then pulled her head down harsher against my pussy, signaling.. well, making her eat me out faster, as she did.

Because she's just so obedient. Eating out her superior.. even though I'm some kind of imagination, as I smiled down at her as she ate me out faster, her tongue taking me further up than heaven.. as I gasped, my breath hitched.

Damn is she already getting me to my orgasm? Who is this dumb slut..? I groaned as my back arched, my hips bucked into her mouth as I held her head firmly in between my thighs.

Her warm tongue went faster as she had her hands on the floor. She looked like a dog eating me out like this, as I could see her eyes full of love and unshed tears, gosh.. it turned me on to see her like that. I smirked as then I felt so close.

As then I threw my head back, my free hand going to her wings which were flapping by excitement.. as I grabbed her wing my eyes rolled back, I've had many women eat me out but damn.. I moaned as I panted, as I pulled on her head and on her wing, mouth gaped slightly.

"Damn slut.. you actually doing a good job?" I degraded as I chuckled and then hissed in between gritted teeth, as I bucked my hips into her mouth, "Damn it slut.. move faster." I ordered, as I pulled roughly on her wing. As she whined into my folds, vibrating slightly. Her mouth was moving faster, licking up all my wetness as I felt it.

I felt I was going to cum, oh gosh.. her whines would just vibrate against my pussy, as she sucked my clit a bit harshly, I bit my lip "oh gosh you slut." I moaned as I pulled on her wing. Making her whine louder into me.

As then I gasped, arching my back as I then came into her mouth, squirting.. gosh she really made me squirt? She doesn't deserve it. As I stared down at her as I held her hair roughly in place, her mouth opened as she let my squirt dive into her mouth as I smirked panting at the scene before me "such a slut. You like that right?" I asked, degrading her as she nodded.

"You better be grateful. You don't deserve even a bit of my time" I reminded her as I furrowed my eyebrows a bit annoyed as she whined. Staring up at me as then I noticed.. I looked down and saw she had came onto her own fingers.

She was masturbating this whole time, I rolled my eyes as I chuckled as I looked down at her "so disgusting." I said annoyed as I then let go of her head roughly, making her whine as she bit her lip, "sorry" she spoke softly and whiny as I slapped her, "only getting to even see me should be enough. Slut, are you trying to say I'm not enough? By fingering yourself." I asked angrily.

"N-no you're enough.. you're more than enough" she said panting as she tried to get closer but I slapped her across the face again, as then I laughed at the pain in her eyes "well. Get dressed. We have demons to kill" I ordered as I then got up with a grin on my face.

As she then gulped.. nervously as she took a few seconds "okay" she said softly as she bit her lip, licking them afterwards as I got dressed, rolling my eyes "you're so lucky.. you even got to taste me" I said, reminding her of how lucky she was she even got a taste of my sweat.

"Yes. You're right." She said with a small smile as she got dressed as I rolled my eyes once again and then grinned "now. Let's get going." I said as I finished getting dressed, "by the way. Savour this moment. Cause it's the only time you're getting this" I said signaling to my body as she stared at me blushing slightly, as I then left with a smile.

Well.. she could get it again if she was good, but only after we killed those pesky little dirty demons down there in hell, as I sighed after I left what was my office as I cleaned my lips, I could still taste her dirty saliva on me, ugh.

“At last the extinction exhibit!” The tour guide had announced excitedly clapping his hands is what brought your attention to him temporarily.

Holding your soda close and slurping quietly from its bent straw you watched the tour guide Peter, you think was his name lead your group over to the exhibit. He was going over some information excitedly to your college class who was out on a “researchable tour”.

Aka adult wording for Field Trip at the Heaven Gate Museum which was founded so many years ago by the Archangels A Scientist and discovery group of scientists and researchers that was determined to find out if the Bible and other historic text was real. More so The creatures that were scribed in the olden texts and stories.

And the very thing that was eating away a thirty percentage of your inheritance left behind from your deceased parents each and every year.

You let out a sigh rolling your eyes as you followed your group down the new exhibit room, your gaze dropping down to the short woman with a short cut bob before a smirk forming on your face.

“This shit is so lame.” You spoke to her watching her Amber eyes move from the exhibits towards you, her eyes rolling at you before a smirk forming on her face.

“You think anything related to this Museum is lame Y/n.” Lute said bluntly, making you shrug, Lame was a kind way to put how you felt about the Museum and Archangels group, that was for sure.

“I can't wait to cut this shit off of my inheritance in a few months.” You spoke slowly to her as your eyes moved over the exhibits and art pieces, artifacts, all these pieces deemed priceless in discovery and history.

Pieces discovered By your and the other well-known families that led to them being discovered and on display.

It all left a foul taste in your mouth.

“Are you really going to pull out your family's legacy?” Lute questioned you as you both paused at a memorial wall that had three family crests carved into the wall.

The same wall in every single exhibit room.

Your eyes landed on the three tacky crests, you knew them all without needing to even glance at them.

The top crest was your family Crest.

The Harpenson Family.

The bottom left side was the Morningstar's family crest.

And the Last one on the right side was The Eden Family Crest

Each proudly displaying imagery of their designated Mythical creature that was so well known to be associated with the three families.

The Harpy, The Naga, The Sprite.

The very creatures symbol that made the families nearly obsessed in finding if the creatures were real, which led to a very long generational discoveries of creatures thought to be false to be relabeled in all records as real.

From Drakes to Sirens.

It always seemed every few generations something would be founded as newly discovered breaking records all over again.

And Yet, Every other generation, almost like a pattern there was always some kind of disappearance or death that occurred in your family.

“Yes, I am.” You said without hesitation, as your eyes narrowed at the Naga engraving in the wall.

And what was the pattern you figured out years ago after the death of your parents? seemed it always coincidentally the generation that didn't agree to an arranged marriage to the Morningstars.

“I want nothing to do with this place.” You turned following the group that was collecting up again at the end of the extinction exhibit, Lute promptly following you.

Just in a few months, You will be Twenty five years old, and your family's estate and inheritance will be passed over to you.

“A shame.” She hummed out as she walked by your side looking up at you. “I was planning for our wedding to be in the gardens of this place.”

You couldn't help the harsh glare you shot at her, It only narrowed when you saw the corner of her lips twitch upwards before you let out a disgruntled noise.

“Over my parents' missing bodies.” You grumbled, feeling her hand hit your side as you both followed the group into some kind of lecture.

“Quit disrespecting your parents.” She scolded at you lightly before her hand moved to your larger one and squeezed it gently in her way of comfort.

You briefly squeezed it back as you led away to one of the back seats.

Your class didn't even have a full minute after sitting down before the lecture rooms lights dims except at the front where a door swung open and out came the current Archangel head researcher and spokesperson.

That foul taste grew stronger on your tongue.

Like bitter iron of pennies, only these pennies were coated in acid and shoved into your mouth.

How delightful….

Lucifer Morningstar, The current head of the Morningstar family and an utter prick that keeps racking up more and more debts and failed expeditions that your soon to be estates and inheritance is fronting and paying off.

“Hello Everyone! Welcome to My Current Office!” The man greeted getting multiple chuckles and laughs from the group.

“Fucking prick.” You grumbled squeezing your soda a bit, as you wanted to set it down on the desk booth in front of you.

You could feel Lute softly rub her thumb against your knuckles, it did little to soothe you but you appreciate it nonetheless.

“Welcome all and thank you for all participating in this important gathering at Heaven Gate.” The soft soothing voice of Eve Eden settled down the crowd.

Your Ex-Arranged-Fiancé,

Seeing her only brought back more pain,

Though you had no bad blood towards her, You couldn't hold anything against Eve. Like you, she didn't have any control of her parents, breaking off both of your arranged marriages a mere few months after your parents' deaths. Despite you both being a mere two years apart and had grown up as close friends throughout childhood and early teen years. Despite the fact your Father and Her Father were very close friends and deemed it best if you two were paired to be husband and wife.

After the death of your parents, a series of red flags started to be thrown up against the wall.

Starting with the fact that Godwin Morningstar had tried to take custody of you, announcing it would be the only thing to right the damages of your parents deaths on the expedition that His team lead had gone wrong which led to a whole mess of things.

Something your Aunt Sera had stepped in and curbed stomped on the old fucks parade real quickly when she slammed your parents will and testimony and your custody rights to her at the courts and winning.

Less than a month later You and Eves Engagement was abolished by Her Father Adversin Roo and then it was announced that she would be engaged to the younger twin Lucifer Morningstar who was roughly three years her senior.

Making you a bachelor, and Eve betrothed.

You and Eve were not permitted to see each other anymore.

Separating you from your closest friend and one of the few people besides your aunt who genuinely comforted you from the loss of your parents.

You felt Lute squeezed your hand pulling you from a numbing distance and you glanced at her, catching her amber eyes before letting out a breath and squeezing her hand back. A simple ‘Im okay’ signal to her as you tried to pay attention to what was going on. Yet your mind was already back to replaying the past to the present.

Aunt Sera, had taken good care of you, at least to the best as she possibly could.

She went from the distant rich aunt always busy with her business, to your sudden caregiver and guardian.

She was surprisingly strict with you, which was a change from her once carefree personality. Though you suppose losing a sister would do that to you.

You had become the last living piece of your mother, and Sera was determined to make sure you were always protected.

She had you go to the best schools and programs, all selected by her.

By the time you were twenty she had arranged you into a new engagement, destroying your bachelor status right as you were starting to explore that status.

Which is how you had bitterly met Lute Powers, Your current Faincé.

The bitterness was shared, and it had oddly turned into a rebellious friendship and support.

Her family wanted her to be a Lady of the Main three Families, and She wanted to be Free of her family's wishes.

You wanted to break Your family from the Main three families and be riddance from them and everything they were known for.

“In Honor of Heaven Gates 200th Anniversary and in even more celebration-” Lucifer's voice rang out and brought your hazy mind back to the lecture room.

“The Young Harpenson Heir Y/n Twenty Fifth Birthday!”

Your eyes seemed to lock with the blonde haired prick as you swore you saw his smile grow into a grin.

“I am Honored to announce that for the next Archangel Expedition with the young heir himself, will be heading to Pride Mount!”

That foul taste in your mouth started to burn.

“Where we believe we have evidence of the existence of Harpenson's very own crest symbol creatures… Harpies!”

You couldn't register Lute grabbing your arm to comfort you, Trying to get you to turn to her.

You felt your chest tighten and your screaming eyes snapping away from the grinning prick towards Eve, Your Ex Faincé, Your once friend.

Watching as the brunette woman's eyes moved away as she looked towards the floor as if ashamed of the news, before breathing and stepping forward by Lucifer's side and smiling.

“We Believe that the Expedition will be a success and an incredible step for Mr. Harpenson taking over the legacy of twelve generations of dedication, exploration and history.” Eve's soft voice is what caused your heart to freeze for the solid five minutes as your class cheered.

Fucking cheered, for the same Expedition that your parents died on, nearly thirteen years prior.

The Expedition that your parents wrote in their very own will that you were required to do in order to have full access to your family's inheritance with the Morningstars as written witnesses.

The Very thing Aunt Sera had swore she wouldn't have you do and test against the requirement.

What a cruel way to find out she couldn't fight it like she had promised.

You feel sick, you need to leave.

you had stormed out, lute behind you on your heels.

But regardless of how you tried to get away now, it didn't make a damn until you were at the head of your own household.

Which brings you to where you are now. In some four wheel off roading drive exploration jeep back seat, With Lucifer Morningstar driving up front. Eve Eden in the Front Passenger Side with her still fiancé and to your side in the back seat was Lute who seemed to keep a sharp eye on the two.

It had been incredibly awkward when the two had come to pick you up, with Lucifer acting as if you two were long time friends as if his family wasn't the very cause of your passed parents, and the end to you and Eve's friendship. Then Eve, ever being the peacemaker trying to soothe the hastey death glare you were glaring into the shorter man's head by greeting you as if the time apart was never there.

“Let me tell you K/n, You are just going to LOVE the base camp. We had smart cabins installed just for your arrival! It will be just like a vacation, Trust me!” Lucifer seemed to enthusiastically explain to you as he looked up in the rear view mirror with his red eyes, simply a reflection of the lighting, a neat trait that came with albinism. The reflection or refraction of Red light in the iris and sclera. When shade hit over the vehicle the red gleam was a bright blue.

It seemed like the Morningstar traits to Albinism still ran strong in their bloodline.

You wondered if the patchy scale like skin condition also still ran in their genetics, as you took in the man's appearance.

Wonder if that's why his twin never shows face.

“It's Y/n.” Lute had snapped at the sure intentional mispronunciation of your name.

“What Lucifer is trying to say.” Eve seemed to speak up while side-eyeing Lucifer in warning before looking in the rear mirror at you softly, as if trying to comfort you.

“We planned on this trip being more as a way for us all to reconnect and reconcile while having some fun. We have teams doing all the hard stuff so we can focus on the fun and exciting things on the trip.”

You simply looked out the window taking in the forest that was blurring through it.

“I'm sure it will be something.” You made sure to say disinterested.

Missing the flinching look between the other houses heirs, and the smirk forming on Your friends face.

Ground bored of the blur of browns and greens you moved your eyes up to the blue and cloudy sky at the top of your window.

Deciding to watch the Sky instead.

This is going to be a long trip.

Beating wings beat heavily through the thinning air before outstretching as soon as they caught a wind current moving into a gliding position.

Golden eyes as bright as daylights sun scanned over tree canopies, blackened lines on the waterline of eyes lids reflecting light away from the pupils allowing further aerial sight.

Food was in mind, but that was an everyday search. Today was simply flying around the territory making sure nothing had changed in the past time of his patrol.

Nothing really ever changed.

Tipping his wings as he leaned to the side gliding in a circular pattern, it allowed Him to move his eyes back over the area he was observing one more time to be on the safe side before he snapped his wings to capture pockets of air to uplift him.

Disinterested in the area brought him to land on the next giant perchable tree he sighted.

Arms out and blackened clawed hands outstretched out to grab onto branches.

His blackened feet arched allowing the talons on his toes to angle right to dig into the trees bark as he landed.

Gold and brown speckled wings moved to outstretch behind him before folding to his sides as he moved to squat down on the thickest branch of the tree. Moving his arms to rest on his knees as he inhaled a crisp fresh breath of air.

The Morning sun felt warm and welcoming on his wings and feathers, melting into his bronze skin that wasn't covered in feathers.

His feather tipped Ears perking up as he moved eyes down below the canopy of the tree that he was comfortably perched on.

He could see a number of first day meals below him, but none seemed to really draw him into launching from the tree, talons outstretched ready to cage and snatch up.

He let out a huff, shuttering and allowed the moment to fluff up and out his feathers and wings. Moving a clawed hand to his fluffy mop of hair and feathers on top of his head scratching at the crown of his head.

Whatever he decided on, he would have to bring a portion to the owl.

Adam let out a huff as he dragged a claw along his scalp as he went back to debating on what would be his morning meal or if he should fly to the spring.

Boredom quickly started to slither up from his tail feathers and up his being as he decided to travel to the spring.

Lifting up and taking off in the air until he spotted the crystine waters and started circular guiding down to the springs banks.

A fat trout could suffice..

He briefly thought as he moved to look down at the crystine waters catching his reflection.

Well…Isn't he just a gorgeous sight?

His outstretched wings caught the sun's lights making them just glow as bright as a golden star, a gold that reached his skin and eyes, The black eyeline markings making his eyes gleam brighter hues of gold, his chin decorated with healthy facial hair.

His plumage on his chest well preened and had his second best feathers aside from the powerful ones on his wings and tail feathers perfectly framing his muscular and lean chest down to his happy trail to his feathered covered lower half and thighs until his bare lower legs that darken to black to his clawed talons.

His arms were similar to his legs, minus the feathers, just below his elbows, his forearms darken to black all the way to his claw tips on each of his fingers.

He moved a hand to his fluffy feathered Hair that fluffed up at his soft preening, a smirk pulling on his face as he admired his reflection, moving his wings in the light to see them gleam under the sun's touch.

This season is looking promising thus far.

Which brought him a sense of refleaf that he finally got rid of all the Haggard stages, and awkwardly half molten half adult plumage.

The strange breakouts of plucking feathers across his face.

The thought making him grimace as he remembered Lilith laughs at his maturing misfortunes. The owl had laughed at him until she awkwardly shrieked out. Her own maturing misfortune was the messed up shrieks she let out which had made him barked out his own laughter.

This season however seemed the season to show off himself in his prime.

Only took Twenty five years at various stages to fully reach his maturity but he survived without getting eaten to grow to his full size.

Nothing compared to the owls size, Which he found annoying, but hey that was subspecies for ya.

Lilith had grown to tower him, not only in height but also wing span.

The great horn Owl Harpy stood at an overdramatic 13ft with her wingspan hitting at 28 ft.

How annoying

Adam thought as his golden eyes moved away from his reflection to the deeper pool of the springs.

He had hoped he would grow to be far larger than her, yet she stood nearly three heads taller than him, As He Sadly only grew to be 10ft, Ten five if he stood on the tips of his talons, But he would look utterly pitiful if he did that and he wouldn't be caught dead standing on his talons tips around her.

His wings only hit at 24 ft.

Yet he did learn the advantage of being slightly smaller, and that would pick him up out of annoyance. He could hit really sharp turns that Lilith couldn't do, and he could dive far faster than she could manage.

His frame was built for fast flying, and surely that must be his subspecies specialty.

it wasn't like there were any others around to compare too.

Eyeing a fat trout Adam moved into the waters keeping his wings and tail feathers away from the water and he softly walked through it towards the grouped up fish.

He and Lilith were the only ones in the territory.

None other called back to their secret, not so secret calls out.

Lilith had once recalled a time where she swore there had been others among them. When she was just a yearling while he hadn't even hatched out yet.

By the time he had hatched out, Lilith had been a fledgling and entirely on her own, trying to keep his egg warm, which she only found when she was trying to teach herself how to fly.

Lilith's memory of others of their kind was fuzzy, she had claimed it was like they all were there, then there were some strange loud sounds, a funny smell, and then silence.

Then it was just her, Then him, and then just them.

Adam slammed his clawed hands into water, slamming it in the direction of the shore watching as the slimy yet delicious creature he was hunting went flying into the air, gashes in its side as it slammed in the shore.

A sense of pride caused him to flare out his chest plumage before moving back to focus on the waters waiting patiently as the scattered trout would regroup and come part of his and Lilith's meal.

They had promised to always stay together. Look out for each other, and never leave each other like the others had.

Be a family one day together.

A topic that kept adjusting as they both kept growing and maturing.

It was only early this year they both had caught each other calling out for others.

Guilt had hit them both as they both tried to deny it….

But they both started to realize.

They didn't want to be the only option for each other…..

If there was a possibility of another answering their calls.

So they both agreed.

When Adam reached his early thirties and Lilith her Mid-Thirties, if none other had answered their calls proving they were more of their kind out in the world…..They both would have the conversation of settling each other and build a nest together and have a family of their own, Or both simply letting them be the very last of their kind to prevent any offspring being as alone as they were.

Another swipe at the water after waiting granted another large trout to the shore making Adams hunt be successful. He moved the shore snatching the dying trout in his claw tipped hands and looked up at the sky outstretching his wings.

He just hoped Lilith would squawk at him for leaving her portion stabbed and hanging outside of her hollow nest ... .Considering him catching her anything was an act of kindness more than anything.

Okay….Maybe it was some kind of meal for meal thing.

He catches her a day meal, and she in turn catches him a night meal.

This allowed them both to get to try things that each other wouldn't get to try due to their sleeping patterns.

Taking flight, It didn't take Adam very long to reach Lilith nest and leave the trout dangling from a tree limb out of her hollowed nest and dip back to the sky circling around their territory while munching on his own trout.

Today he will try the east side of the territory.

Flying to some Cliffs he landed and moved along between some rocks to where he could see outside of their protected territory. Out towards a vast forest down a mountainside. The sight was lovely, yet he wouldn't fly over those tree canopies. Not when Lilith said there were things worse than natural predators that lived down those trees.

Things she saw in her dreams.

He didn't doubt her dreams, there were many times they came true.

If she said they can't leave the territory because it wasn't safe for them to fly the sky's outside of it?

Then they can't. Simple as that.

Yet he hoped there were others outside their territory alive and flying, thriving out in the dangerous skies.

He stood straight, his feathers ruffling as he let a call come naturally from his chest to his throat.

His ears perked up to alert, the feathers on them flaring out as he was at attention to listen for any call back ... .He would wait a moment, Two then call again, Crying out unanswered calls until this day's hope of another is squashed by ever growing disappointment.

His golden eyes dulled as he looked at the dangerous skies and the trees below it. His wings growing heavy as his heart and curling around him in self comfort.

There has to be another out there…

There has to be someone, to hear his calls…

Hear him…Searching for him as he was searching for them.
