Chapter 23
Michael
Back at the wedding
Lucifer’s eyes shone with jealousy as he took in the spectacle of a grand wedding.
“Why did they get married first? This should be us! They are stealing my thunder!” Lucifer sulked. He whirled towards me and squeezed my hands. “Michael, marry me! We will show them up when we have a better, even bigger wedding.”

Lucifer stared, spellbound.
“You… you want to marry me in the City of Sin? That’s the most romantic thing anyone had ever said to me.”
“Let’s go now,” I said, joining our hands.
“Yes! I… yes, fuck yes! But I think we need a witness?”
Lucifer looked adorable when he was so frustrated.
