Chapter 140 - Chapter 140: Bloom

[3rd POV]

After giving Rose the rather good advice in regards to getting into a relationship, the two continued to chat and play zombies with one another, with them doing the Easter egg, and just having fun.

Rose ended up asking more questions about her past lives, as while Lucifer had indeed spoken about some of them, it was never in detail, and it was never for long periods of time. Like she never spoke of her...darker lives, when she was not exactly a good person. Like her time as Jack the Ripper.

Not all of Lucifer's lives were good people. It was absolutely impossible for that to be the case. As she had lived a billion billion lives, and had been evil in around half of them, and good in the other half.

Which naturally that was just how it would go, she didn't retain past memories, so it was only natural that she would never be the same person, that she would not always be an upstanding person.

There were certain things that she had never done in any of her lives, so she was okay with the fact that she wasn't always a good person, as she had never done the truly heinous, awful things.

But Rose had been interested in her lives, so she did explain some of them to her.

The main one that her daughter had been curious about, was her life as Adam. About what it was like to be around before the rest of humanity was alive, about what it was like to be the first human, the Father of Humanity.

It was...a curious thing. Living before the rest of humanity, to be the first, the beginning, and the one who all of humanity originates from.

And she wasn't just the originator of all of humanity in that multiverse, but ALL multiverses. As it was from her and Eve that her father got the idea for the rest, that humans as a whole were born.

This made her the father of humanity on an existence wide scale. And that had obviously come as a shock to her daughter, who hadn't realized that until she had told her. The wide eyed look she had gotten from her daughter was hilarious though.

After talking with Rose about her past lives, and enjoying the shocked expressions she would get from her upon hearing all sorts of juicy info, the rest of the day had been spent gaming with the rest of the family, just enjoying life as they all should.

It was the day after, and she decided that today was the day she was going to spend with Bloom, who had asked if they could go to a bookstore. With Lucifer deciding on the "Powells City of Books" it was the largest bookstore in the world, and was in Oregon.

Lucifer didn't really like the state, but she had to admit that the bookstore was really impressive. And if the awe on her daughter's face was any indicator, it seemed that she agreed with this.

"Wow, it's huge!" Bloom exclaimed, as she saw what was basically huge lines of bookshelves full of books, and was four stories, making it absolutely huge. With thousands of books to be bought, and all sorts of rare ones that Bloom was excited to find and buy.

There were also used books, and some of these used ones were very very rare. With a few of them being first edition books that were not easily available in today's day and age.

But Lucifer ignored them, in favor of walking with her daughter as she looked around excitedly.

"I'm glad to see that you're so excited, hon. Is there any book that you want to find specifically?" Lucifer asked, as Bloom looked at her before humming in thought. There was a huge list of books and book series that she wanted to read, hundreds of books long.

But she had a big rule that she always followed. And that was because she did not buy more than 25 books at a time. And she would only buy more after she finished her old books that she had bought. The only exception to this was when she bought special editions of books that she really liked, like when she got the special editions of the Throne of Glass series.

"Um, yes actually! I want to find the Cosmere Saga, the one made by Brandon Sanderson. It's not one book, but a bunch of other ones set in the same universe. I think there's the Stormlight Archive, Mistborn, Warbreaker, and Elantris? So I think in total it's like 17 books?" Bloom responded, not really sure how many there are.

She just knew that the series was quite long, and beloved. So she really wanted to read them and see why everyone adored them so much.

"Alright then, let's go find these books!" Lucifer said, smiling as she herself had actually read all of them before. They were fantastic books, and was a unique universe she would like to take a short trip to eventually down the road.

"Are there any other books you want to buy? You don't have to get only these ones, you know. Since you're limit is usually 25" Lucifer asked, as Bloom blinked at the question.

"Um...there's the Summer I turned Pretty, the Inheritance Games trilogy, and then maybe the rest could be Stephen King books? I've never read any of his works, so I think that could be fun" Bloom responded after thinking for a few moments.

"The Summer I turned Pretty? Huh, your Mommy really likes that show" Lucifer replied, remembering when Alice made her sit down and watch it. The show itself was actually pretty good, but the relationships made her cringe every time.

Seriously, Belly was awful in her eyes. Jeremiah was even worse. And Conrad deserved way better. Especially with the cheating fiasco that Jeremiah had done, and not only once, but twice. While Belly broke up with Conrad all while his mother was literally dying. Basically, Conrad deserved someone much better than Belly, and Jeremiah deserved no one.

"Yeah she told me about it. I watched the first two seasons, but I want to read the book up to the point I got into the show, and then finish season three, and then finish the book after" Bloom responded, explaining her plan as Lucifer raised an eyebrow. It was a unique order to do it in, but a valid one.

"Are you going to get any books, Mama?" Bloom asked, as she knew that Lucifer read books all the time, and had caught her reading romance books with Alice before.

"Hmm, how about I get all the same books, and we can do a little book club with your Mommy? As I am sure that she'll want to do it too" Lucifer offered, as Bloom looked at her in surprise, excitement appearing seconds later.

"You'd really do that!?"

"Mmhmm, of course, It would be fun" Lucifer said with a smile, a laugh echoing from her as Bloom happily hugged her, agreeing with the idea readily. It would be fun for both Lucifer and Bloom, and she was certain that Alice would also love to do it, as Alice read all the time.

With that in mind, Bloom excitedly dragged Lucifer with her, all the while, Lucifer chuckled and said one last thing as she followed her daughter.

"Alright, let's go find those books!"
