Sighing in relief to the news from the doctor, I smiled. Seeing Toni and Klaus walking into the room. "Hey you." Klaus said softly, placing a hand on top of my head. Reaching down and pecking my lips, he moved out of the way. Seeing Toni smiling.

"Hey kiddo." I held her hand.

"Hey mama, well... I guess I can't say that for myself anymore." Klaus huffed at Toni's sentence. "No need to worry Luci, secrets safe with me."

"Thank you." I kissed her hand.

"How's the baby?" Klaus asked, rubbing my small belly.

"He or she are fine, doctor said that what happened to me is normal for people having their first pregnancy. I'm good to leave, after I have some food and water." I explained, seeing a nurse walk in with a tray of food and water. Klaus grabbed my hands, helping me sit up. Klaus thanked her, while I felt my phone buzz in my jacket pocket. I pulled it out seeing it was a no caller ID. "Hello?"

"Lucifer Jones, She isn't far." An old cracking voice begun.

"Who is this?" I narrowed my eyebrows, Klaus looking at me concerned.

"Cheryl. She's nearby."

"Nana Rose?" I questioned. "Nana Rose, where is she?"

"With the sisters." The line then cracked, hearing my voice beep. I placed my phone down beside me looking in between them two.

"Nana Rose just told me where Cheryl is, she's definitely with the sisters of quiet mercy." Klaus took Toni home back with to her grandfather, while Klaus bridal carried me into the lounge room. All I could do was laugh. "I'm pregnant, not a piece of glass." I stated, while he placed me down on the couch.

"I think I know that Lucifer." He smiled. "Toni told me about Cheryl, I'm helping her."

"Excuse me?" I raised an eyebrow.

"You heard me, I'm taking your spot and I'm helping Toni and Veronica get Cheryl out... along with Kevin, cause he actually knows where the secret entrance is. You stay here, hold down the fort." He put his foot down.

"You annoy me." I yawned, folding my arms and turning my head away from him, he huffed in amusement. Shaking his head as he headed towards the kitchen, the king admired his queen from afar. Watching her bring her phone out of her back pocket, the queen rubbed her stomach.

The queen falling asleep on the couch, the king chucked a blanket over her. Knowing how this baby was running her energy levels down to the ground. The king left the next morning to meet Toni and organise plans, the queen woke to the unusualness of not being in her kings arms. I rubbed my eyes, reaching over and grabbing my phone. Seeing a message from Klaus explaining that he's with Toni.

Heading to the whyrm on foot, I entered the car park. Walking past a bin which made my insides wanna come out of my mouth.

"Lucifer." A voice called to me, looking around I saw dad strolling over to me.

"Hey dad." I replied, placing my hand on my chest. Making sure I didn't throw up over him.

"What's up with you?" He raised an eyebrow, pulling me into a side hug.

"Something is inside that bin, that smells like death." I stated, dad dragging me along with him. Dad lifting the lid, I couldn't look in. All I done was hide my face in his shoulder.

"Oh damn." He closed it, holding his nose aswell. "Wanna go for a walk?

"Sure." I followed him, we headed towards the takeaway place.

"How's wedding planing going?" Dad questioned.

"Yeah, Alright. I got a dress, he's got a suit. He's still deciding his best man, I'm still deciding my bridesmaids. We need a venue, that's about it." I explained.

"Oh yeah... hey you sure you're alright? You're a bit pale." He spun me to face him.

He placed a hand on my head. "You don't have a temp, what's wrong with ya?" I loved his arm away.

"Dad, I'm fine."I laughed it off. "I've just got a sick stomach from the bin. Come on, let's go and get food for everyone." I pulled him along, he laughed as he chucked his arm over my shoulders. The queen and the old man talked for what seemed like ages. The old man went on his ways, while the queen headed back to the whyrm. Seeing the young prince gathering up troops. "Juggy what's going on?" I asked.

"Need your help." He rushed up to me. "There's these two people at Betty's, who chick has dealt with and they need our help to get rid of them. You might remember her, Darla?"

"Of course I do, lets go." Gathering the serpents, we made our way to the Cooper manner. Walking up to the front door, I kicked down the door off of its hinges. We all stormed in with our knives in our hands, spotting Darla her eyes widened. I stood beside Jug, who stood beside Betty.

"You think you two can take all of us?" Betty begun. "Try it." She impersonated Darla.

"You brought backup and the queen of the serpents. Does that mean you want me to go to the sheriff, start making a stink?" Darla questioned, not making eye contact with me.

"That's your call, but my back up and me, we're friends with the sheriffs son, so, whose side do you think he'll pick?" Betty rhetorically asked.

"The coopers are one of the most respected families in Riverdale. You two are just a couple of Centerville scumbags like I remember." I stated.

"Anything That was in your car washed away else we'd have heard about it. Why don't you grab your money and run?" Betty suggested as I added.

"Before I do what I done to your brother." I warned her.Watching as Darla and her steroid boyfriend leave, I stayed beside Jug while the other serpents left. I placed my hand on jugs back. "I'm going to go and thank the boys and send them home, I'll be back."

"Ok." He kissed my cheek. Walking outside, I hugged all the guys.

"Thank you boys, head to the whyrm. All drinks are free, you done well. Go home guys." I told them to do, doing as they were told. I headed back inside. "Sorry about your door Alice." 

"Thank you, Lucifer and Jughead. Thank your friends for me." She walked up to us.

"We're serpents, its what we do."
