Hell's Revenge (16 page)

“I’ll take her now,” said Bambi’s soft voice from behind me.

I hated to give Lucinda up, even for a short moment, but I didn’t want her to see what came next.

“Go with your Aunt Bambi while mommy takes care of this.” Lucinda held out her arms and went to my sister, who drew a portal and took her back to my dad’s castle.

Little one out of the way, I prepared to get even. “Prepare to meet my justice,” I told Lilith with a smile that tended to send mortals running.

Lilith stamped her foot. “This isn’t over. You might capture me now, but I’ll escape your father’s Hell just like I escaped Limbo and when I do, you’ll pay.”

“Yeah, about that whole eternal damnation and torture thing. See, I have this policy of not leaving loose ends. So kiss your life goodbye.” I stalked toward Lilith, pulling my Hell blade free as I strode, its gleaming red blade shining eagerly for the violence I would unleash.

That wiped away her smile, for about a second. Then it returned. “I’m immortal. You can’t kill me. No matter what you do I’ll—”

I swung my sword and sent her head flying. My men then joined me in dismembering the scorned bitch and then my dad called portals to all the planes he knew.

All of us took a piece and walked through a portal returning only after burying our piece nice and deep. See, the thing about immortality was, yes the flesh lived forever, but cut it in enough pieces and death suddenly didn’t look so bad.

Eden itself took care of Lilith’s head as if catching on to my plan, sucking it down into its earthy depths where I hoped the worms would eat her eyeballs.

“I can’t believe that worked,” Auric said shaking his head.

“That was barely a fight,” grumbled my father who looked splendid in his Darth Vader cape and boots.

David, who still wore his cat, chuffed. Teivel rolled his eyes. “And I thought I was a whack job. You guys are fucked.”

“Welcome to the family,” I said with a bright smile. My family.

I lounged on our new back patio, which faced an oversize yard, more of a field really, and watched Lucinda play with her new hellhound puppy. She’d named the muscled critter with glowing red eyes Fluffy. I thought my dad would have a stroke when he heard.

After the initial scramble to find a bigger house, dress my little girl in all things pink and frilly and make sure the bar had survived during my absence, this was the first day I’d had in what seemed like ages to relax. And I loved it.

I’d expected motherhood to shock my system and turn my life upside down and, while it had in a sense, I was the first to admit, I loved it. As did my men. Auric and David made perfect fathers, not that I’d had any doubt. Lucinda, true to her genes, had them wrapped around her little finger. Given her daddies’ protective instincts, I couldn’t wait until she started dating. Auric would have a cow and David would probably eat the unlucky boy.

Speaking of whom, from the bushes slinked a blond panther, low to the ground and silent. Lucinda, though, always knew when they got close, a trick I wouldn’t have minded, and whirled around screaming like a banshee before she pounced on David. The two rolled in the grass, just another normal little girl and her oversized cat. How domestic.

A puff of brimstone mixed with sunshine let me know mom and dad had arrived. My mother’s demise had been premature—how unfortunate. Apparently, the earth had swallowed her in order to protect and heal her. Must have been some pretty good freaking dirt because the Gaia that emerged wasn’t quite the bitch I recalled. For one, she called me regularly to chit chat of all things and even threatened to come for tea. She also appeared to be attempting to patch things up with my dad, which really grossed me out, especially when my dad winked at me and said maybe they’d try for baby number two.

My dad gave me a punch in the shoulder as he walked past, his new version of public affection, which beat the previous of none at all. My mother sat beside me and together we watched as my dad pulled his exorcist routine for his granddaughter. Lucinda clapped her hands and giggled, then squealed, “Again.”

Auric came from the house and groaned. “Please tell me your Dad’s not spinning his head again.”

I just grinned in reply. If he thought that was bad, just wait until he found out about the dragon my dad gave her.

Auric manhandled me onto his lap and I snuggled into his arms. My life couldn’t get any more complete, from the vampire sleeping in my basement who had wormed his way into my heart, to the giant kitty on my lawn whom I adored, to my fallen angel who kept proving his love to me. Who said a princess of Hell couldn’t have it all?

As for the future and the calamities it probably held in store for me? Bring it. I feared nothing, not with my family—strange as it was, with my dad currently blowing flames from his nose—by my side. This princess of Hell had faced off against evil and adversity and guess what? I won. My prize? A whole lot of freaking love—and sex. Sweaty, screaming, thigh clenching sex.
Oh my.
