Summary
If she were sixty and in Amiel's shoes, she wouldn't have believed herself, either.
But... she couldn't leave it at that. No. She had to point out all the things that made it certain that Lucifer Morningstar would never give up on this boy. All the things she herself couldn't say.
"Your Daddy... loves you very much, Amiel. You and your sister are the center of his world." Each word felt like downing molten iron. She kept going. "He's so very proud of you. There is nothing in this world that could make him leave you behind. Nothing."
The child looked away, gaze clouding with thoughtfulness. He was... remarkably pensive for his age. He gave no verbal response.
...
"Would you leave?"
Her heart stopped.
*****
Half a sequel to "The Queen's Way," half a what-if of "God Help the Morningstars," 100% pain. Neither is required reading, though if you enjoy Lilith angst, the former is bound to be up your alley.
