"ALEXANDER!" A voice boomed through the castle.
"Prince Alexander. Your father wishes your presence in the throne room" An imp ran in with my clothes as I burry my face in my pillow.
"I hear that." I groan. I got up slowly, slipping into my slippers as I shuffle to the bathroom. The year 2022, the day March 15th, I'm 18, the son of Lucifer himself. I stare at myself in the mirror, sometimes I don't know who I even am, compared to my sister, I'm sheltered, only because I'm the heir, and my father is scared I'll end up fucked up too. Honestly, I hate this, I hate my life... I've never have had a friend, a pet, nope, just the imps and demons who listen to my orders. I wet my face and sigh. I look at my phone, turning on music as I got into the shower. My head leaned against the wall, the water just hitting my back, thinking... why am I even exsistent? Soon I was done, going into the throne room, bowing at my Father's feet.
"Good morning Father." I look up.
"Alexander get up, walk and talk boy." He walked past me. I quickly get up, following him.
"Yes?"
"Soon, soon my boy, you'll own my Casino, consider it the first step to the throne." He went into his human disguise. "Today, you start step 1, co-manager." He went into the elevator, me close by, turning more human. "Hide the ears and tail boy, don't want them thinking you're a furry." I quickly put my hybrid parts away and stare at him.
"So... You're letting me... be... around people?" I light up.
"If you act like that knowing you see sinners, I'm doomed..." He shoot his head.
"S-Sorry sir..."
"Eh, enjoy it. You'll be acquainted with my lackey, he'll get you used to the place and etc." He waved his hand as he spoke, the elevator getting to the Casino/Earth floors. "And you'll stay up here so you can get to your shifts more quicker." I nod quickly. "And that should be it." He pushed me out in front of a man. "And this is Alexander, he's your problem now." And like that he was gone. I stared at the man and lit up.
"Hello sir!" He smiled and bowed.
"Prince Alexander, I'm King Dice, the manager and right hand man to your father." I start to panic.
"Oh! Please! Don't need to bow or call me royalty. Just call me Alex." I smile at King Dice as he straightened up.
"Nothing like your father huh?" He chuckled. "So I'll show you our staff, and the casino." He began walking. I quickly walk behind. "So here at the casino, our mission is to find whatever sinner that comes our way and collect his soul so no matter what, he's bound for hell. Get it?" I nod.
"Yeah, I think."
"It's rather easy, and considering you are son of Lucifer, it will come to 2nd nature." He reassured.
"First off, our first 2 staff members we've come across. See the man, smoking a pack of cigars as he attempts to flirt with the younger boy?" I nod. "That's my elder brother Ashton Wheezy, the younger boy is Chipper Bettigan, but many know him as Chips." He explained. "Ashton!" King Dice yelled.
"Ugh what now!?" Ashton shot up and saw me, smirking as he strutted over. "'Nother sinner? Great, let me at him." King Dice back handed him and growled.
"It's Boss' son you dweeb."
"Oh!" Ashton quickly composed himself. "Your highness."
"Please, I insist, act like I'm not his son." I smile happily, putting a hand out. "Alexander King." He shook my hand, but quickly pulled me close.
"In that case." He quickly ruffled my hair, my eyes widened as I tried to hold it in, but all my hybrid parts popped out, my tail wagging outta control.
"Oh no." I quickly bark, jumping back. "Sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry-" Ashton cut off my apologies.
"Why? Kid, we have hybrids here too. Ya know that right? We accept all, and honestly fits ya better than a normal human look." Ashton laughed as he pat my back.
"B-But father said I'd be a f-furry... he says that's bad..." I whimper.
"Ahhh, hear that Kingsley? It's the sound of he's still papa's boy?" Ashton hooked an arm around my neck. "Get the strippers Dice."
"No! Get back to work Ashton, he still has to get the rest down." King Dice crossed his arms.
"You see him kid? He's what we call a pusher over, or what I call, man whore. He has a thing for Daddy Boss. Get it? He doesn't want to make Daddy mad." Ashton pointed to King Dice and laughed.
"It's called I have a job." King Dice huffed.
"Eh, what do you like to do kid?" Ashton ignored his brother as he started dragging me off.
"Uh... What do you mean by that?" I stare at Ashton.
"I mean for fun with ya friends."
"I- Uh- I don't have friends..." I look to the side.
"See Kingsley.. the kids been in the castle too long, we gotta show him fun." Ashton looked back at King Dice.
"No, not happening, absolutely not." King Dice flailed his arms. "I'm putting my foot down."
"Fine, fine, fine. Kid come meet me after the tour and shit, I'll show ya fun." Ashton smirked.
