Forever // a Mammon x OC fanfic (picture tbd)

Prologue

The blushing bride walked down the aisle. Raven had a beautiful simple white gown on, matched with shoulderless sleeves, both with thin rims made of pure gold—of course magically enhanced by Solomon, so Raven could actually lift herself. The low cut dress hugged her curves, before hanging loosely off her body, just centimeters off the ground. Her hair was braided to the side, and rested on her left shoulder. She slowly strode down the Aisle, smiling at her maid of honor, her best friend Jessica. She looked to her parents, and her brother, sending them a bashful grin. Then she turned her attention to her wonderful groom, Mammon.

The demon, at the end of the aisle, wasn't tearing up. Tears were streaming down his face, as he mumbled to his oldest brother, how beautiful she looked. She giggled as she approached her blushing groom.

'I love you.' She mouthed as she reached the altar, stepping up, and standing across from him. Mammon blinked away his remaining tears, before sniffing, and wiping the streams from his now flushed face.

"Friends, and family..." A man wearing a black suit started. He smiled, and looked over the crowd before continuing. "We are gathered here today, to celebrate the eternal union of the human, Raven Morningstar Grimm—" He paused, to gesture to the redheaded woman. "—and The Second Lord of The Devildom, Mammon, The Avatar of Greed." He proclaimed, motioning towards the demon with white hair.

The minister blinked his completely black eyes, and grinned at the pair standing before him.

"You may all be seated." The demonic priest informed, before continuing with his script for the ceremony. He turned to Mammon.

"My lord, it is your duty, to protect this woman. To comfort her. To respect her. To serve her. To honor her. And to love her." He turned to Raven.

"And Raven, it is your duty, to support this demon. To care for him. To guide him. To honor him. To respect him. And to love him."

Mammon and Raven made eye contact. They looked at each other with love and admiration filling their eyes. Blinking away tears, Raven moved her right hand, to caress her stomach.

"I'd like to call your attention, to the seriousness of the agreement, you both are making." The priest began. "You are promising, to stay with each other until death do you part. Now, if you both understand the gravity of this decision-we may move onto your vows." He turned to Mammon, "I understand, that you've prepared your own vows. You may now recite them." Mammon nodded, before taking a wrinkled paper out of his jacket.

"Here. In case I can't finish them." He muttered to his brother, while handing them to Lucifer. Turning back to Raven, he took a deep breath.

"Raven. I never thought I that would meet, someone, as beautiful, as intelligent, and as strong as you." He paused, his voice breaking every time he met her eyes. "And, I... I never thought that someone like that, would ever-could ever stand me, let alone love me or want to spend the rest of their life with me or even have my child." He cleared his throat, blinking his eyes until he could see her clearly again.

"I, I have always, and I will always, love you. Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow. Forever." He finished. The priest turned to Raven, and opened his mouth to speak.

"I hope you're ready, cause now that I have you, I'm not letting you slip through my fingers! You're mine now, forever!" He whispered, with a giddy grin, tears growing in his eyes once more. The priest turned to Raven, "You may now recite your vows." Raven nodded, before handing her bouquet to Jessica. "Do you have it?" she quietly asked, as Jessica reached for her purse.

"Yeah..." The blonde muttered, before handing her a black envelope with white lace. Raven thanked her, before turning back to Mammon. Who was looking at her with a confused and worried look.

"Mammon..." She softly cried, tears starting to fall from her eyes. "Two years and three months ago, I met you. Two years and seven weeks ago, we shared our first kiss. Two years and three weeks ago, we got high together, and you told me you loved me. Two years ago, you told me you were a demon, and a week later I told you I still loved you. A year and 9 months ago, I was the human girlfriend, you kept hidden from your brothers, and an hour later, I had met most of your brothers. A month later, I got pregnant. Four months ago, after 11 painful, hours, I gave birth to our daughter. Lilith Grimm." She paused, before opening the envelope. "And 18 days ago, a doctor told me I was pregnant again." She announced, handing Mammon the paper in the envelope. He looked at the paper, tears falling on to it.

"Astaroth Grimm," He read aloud, staring at the sonogram. "Let's get married, baby..." Raven said, repeating what he often said when he was drunk.

"You will now exchange rings as a symbol of the lifelong commitment and abiding love which you as husband and wife have promised to each other." The priest softly spoke.

"Groom, please place the ring on the Bride's finger, and repeat after me: I give you this ring as a sign of my eternal love and protection."

"I give you this ring as a sign of my eternal love and protection..." Mammon said, after tucking the sonogram and envelope into his jacket pocket. He softly raised her hand, and slid a beautiful black ring with roses engraved on it.

"Bride, please place the ring on the Groom's finger, and repeat after me: I give you this ring as a sign of my eternal love and protection."

"I give you this ring as a sign of my eternal love and protection." Raven said, softly taking Mammon's hand, and sliding a matching white ring with roses engraved on it.

"Mammon, do you take this woman as your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do."

"And Raven, do you take this man as your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"Then by the power vested in me, by Prince Diavolo-" Raven quickly turned her head to said prince and flashed him a smile and a wave. "I now pronounce you, Husband and Wife!" The minister exclaimed, "You may now kiss the bride."

Mammon pulled Raven in for a passionate kiss, "You know, you technically didn't say you loved me, in your vows..." He teased.

"Really? Then I'll say it now... I love you, Mammon." She pecked his lips. "Yesterday. Today, Tomorrow. Forever." She said, kissing him in between words.
