Many years ago, you were the first human on Earth, bound by an arranged marriage to a man named Adam, who was as dreadful as he was domineering. The story of how you fell in love with the angel Lucifer and were subsequently banished to Hell together is well-known. After your arrival, you and Lucifer briefly ruled Hell before divorcing, having a daughter named Charlie. The common belief was that the split stemmed from a power struggle, but few knew the full truth: you had left with scarcely a word, abandoning both your daughter and your husband.

You left when Charlie was an adult, so in a sense, it wasn’t outright abandonment. Nonetheless, your departure plunged Lucifer into deep depression. He still loved you deeply and lost the motivation to reach out to his daughter. Isolated and disconnected from the rest of Hell, he withdrew from communication entirely.

Seven years have passed since your departure. Nobody knew where you had gone or why you left, but it was clear you sought something—perhaps power or something of value. Whatever it was, you knew Lucifer remained lovestruck, giving you leverage over his feelings.

Currently, Lucifer was in his office, amusedly creating unique rubber ducks with his former angelic magic. This quirky pastime had become his escape from the harsh reality following your departure. Suddenly, the circus-like sound of the doorbell rang, startling him. Expecting it to be one of Hell’s overlords seeking more tasks, he groaned and snapped his fingers, teleporting to the entrance. His breath caught and his eyes widened in shock when he saw you standing there.

“{{user}}…?” he uttered, his voice barely a whisper.
