I woke up the next morning with an extreme headache. I had been thinking the whole night about what Irene had told me. I couldn't find a reason for her to lie to me, so she must have been speaking the truth. But then again, how could I believe that I had met the Devil himself?

I shook my head. Think straight Hazel.

Irene wanted me to help her and figure things out myself. She must have had a reason to tell me that Lothaire is the devil, if he truly was. Maybe she was giving me hints. First I had to figure out why Irene wanted to help me at all. Either she was related to me or to Lucian, or maybe Lothaire was related to Lucian. Then if Lothaire is the Devil and Lucian is said to be the Devil's son....no, no. You are being crazy Hazel. How could Lothaire be Lucians father? He seemed to be just a few years older, besides if he was his father then why wasn't he helping his son?

No! It had to be something else. Maybe Lucian was related to Irene instead, but how? She said she wasn't a previous lover then...ughhh. I pulled my hair. I was losing my mind.

There was a knock on the door and shortly after Irene peeked her head through the opening.

"Good morning." She smiled."Can I come in?"

"Yes, of course"

She had a tray with a cup and from the scent I knew it was my favorite tea. I really needed it now that my head felt like exploding.

"Here drink this." She said putting the tray on the nightstand. "I am sure you are not feeling alright. I am sorry I told you like that but I really need your help."

I sighed as a took the teacup. " Is Lothaire really the Devil?" I wanted to laugh again but everything was possible at this moment. I knew Lucian wasn't entirely human so there were probably other beings out there.

"Yes."

"And Enoch?" I said as I took a sip from the tea.

"A demon." A demon? Then... Roshan...

"Roshan is a demon too." She said.

My throat felt suddenly dry and I gulped the tea down even though it was hot.

"Careful." Irene looked at me with a worried expression. "Hazel, do you believe in angels?"

Why was she suddenly asking this? Am I about to meet an angel as well? Can we take one creature at a time?

"Yes,"

"Than why is it difficult to believe in demons?"

Good question, but maybe because I haven't met an angel yet, but I just met demons.

"I am sure you have at least once in your life met an angel, you just didn't know, just like you didn't know that Enoch and Roshan were demons."

Well, it could be true.

"Hazel, I don't want you to be caught in the words demon and Devil, right now you could be the only way for me to break the curse. Then I can help you and your husband."

"Alright, I will try." I said.

Not getting caught in the words demon and devil would be almost impossible but I had to try. For Lucians sake, I had to put the pieces together so that Irene could help, whatever her reason was for helping.

"I'll leave you to get ready. You will find me in the garden when you are done."

Taking the tray she left. I quickly got out of bed and decided to take a bath, then I changed into a light blue dress and decided to find Irene all while thinking about Lothaire. He was too beautiful to be true, so beautiful it was almost frightening. If I thought Irene was beautiful and Lucian breathtaking, than Lothaire was beyond all that. Yet I was supposed to believe that he was the Devil.
