A light and a void ( Lute x sinner reader)

Part 8: We meet yet again...

The floor creeked as i stepped threw the dimmed halls if the hotel. Each creek was even creepier than the other one, it reminded me of those horrible movies i saw back when i was alive.

It was only the handle lights in on the walls that brought a generous amount of light this evening. I then heard a squeak from behind me and i quickly turned around with a gasp only to relax when i didn't see anything.
Augh, snap out of it!
I mentally scolded myself as i slapped my forhead. This isn't some weird horror story, well i'm in Hell but that's not the point! It's not like a monster or a ghost is just spontaneously gonna magicly appear right infront of me-

I was suddenly cut out of my own thoughts by bumping into something not so hard but i ended up falling to the floor on my ass

"Ow!"
I hissed as i rubbed my thigh to ease the pain only to stop midsentence when my ears meet a bunch of static sounds that reminded me of a radio, followed by a dark chuckle that made me freeze in place and gulp before gazing up to what i bumped into......

Oh no.....

To my absolute dismay my own eyes meet two blood-red one's that would surely keep me awake all night and a yellow grin that reached to the cheekbones.

Alastor........

He was staring down at me like if i was some kind of bug and to make it even better for him i was shivering at the sight of him and i swear i could sense his shadows creeping behind my back but i didn't look behind my shoulder due to the fear of what he might do to me if i take my eyes off him for just a quick moment.

I somehow managed to stand up again despite my legs feeling like jello at this moment

Alastor just smiled and patted my heard like if k was some dog
" Ah, little Y/n!"

" Alastor...."
I hissed threw gritted teeth , visibly frustrated but Alastor just spoke up in a humerous tone
" Never thought you'd atcually want to join this crazy hotel!"
He gestured his hands all over the halls while doing a twirl
" I atcually thought you would be dead at this but here you are at your most deperate attempt to be better!"

I just stared at the demon, dumbfounded. Desperate? How dare he!? After all that he knew i've gone through? I pumped up my chest
" Crazy? The princess had told me all about how you stomped in here last week like some sort of salesman and joined this project willingly!"
I stated in a aggresive tone, pumping up my chest to seem more confidet
" If anyone here is desperate it's the person right infront of me who stinks like raw meat in a shitty trashcan!"

The demon didn't say anything a just stared at me in amusment though i could sense right threw that forced smile that inside he was ready to tear me Linn from limb for the disrespect i just showed him as his grip around his vane tighten, seemed like it was gonna snap in two as i continued to speak up to him
" You can fool Charlie but u can see right threw you!"

Alastor just cackled at this and i could hear a radio audience laugh aswell in the distance.

Creepy.....

" I'm only doing this for the entertainment! It's to-"
I cut him off by poking his chest harshly
" Don't get all cute with me, bambi, i can see through you that it's not just because your bored!-"

His claws hand suddenly gripped mine in a split seacond, reasualting in me letting out a gasp in suprise and then fear to know that i just had the guts to mess with one of the most powerful beings in all of Hell.

His eyes got all black, like ink, his horns grew severly bigger and i could see dimmed VooDoo symbols around me and frustrated radio noises filled the atmosphere
" Don't interupt me when i speak......!"
He dig his claws deeper into my hand and right into my sore skin, it feelt like blod was gonna pop out any moment. I hissed but pulled myself together and just stared at him with cold eyes. I didn't want him to see me scared of him
" Unless you wanna end up like her..,"
My expression changed from cold to slightly  anxious when my ears came in contact with several screams, screams of pain, agony and desperate for help in the distance. But one of the screams styck out the most, one that was far to similar and one that still haunted my nightmares since that day......

My chest tighten but i just sucked the thinn air and jerked my hand away from his grip, his claws drew scratches over my palm hand and surely blood would pour out of them at any moment now.
" I don't know why you suddenly disepeared for almost a decade but i know the reason is deep."
I stared into his eyes without showing my fear for him
" And you know that as long as i'm a guest here i'm officially under Vaggie's protection and i don't think that either Charlie or Vaggie would be pleased to find out that you prodcasted one of her guests screams and before you know it you're kicked out on the sidewalk."
I stated , my fists tighten and i stood completely still infront of him. I really thought i was gonna pop a vain.

Alastors eyes were filled with so much; suprise?fright? Something was it for sure that not even his smile could hide from me.

I didn't know if i just made the bravest step in my afterlife or perhaps the worst one that would lead me to become dinner. I could feel the symbols fade away and the static noises lowerd, wich was a relieaf to my ears.

So i just stepped right beside him
" Listen, you keep me out of your games and i'll stop being so noisy....."

I told him politely as i almost ran ti my hotel room, not looking back , not even a seacond

As soon as i reached my door i practibly pulled the door open and closed it gently before leaning my back against it to only realise that i've been holding my breath this while time.

Realising my alarming need for some air right now i let a heavy huff escape my lips and started to breathe pretty quickly due to the lack of oxygen.
" What was i thinking?!"
I whisperd to muyself as i slapped my forhead
" Threathning the Radio demon?! The radio demon?!"
Cursing at myself as i went threw my bags on the floor and started to unpack all my belongings

Usually folding clothes would always make me relax and feeling the soft fabric would somehow make me think that everything was gonna be just fine bit i just couldn't get that Overlord out of my head.

I have scopophobia for fuck sake! All because of that old-timey bastard! Because of all the years he has followed me, stalked me, watched me and using me as his doll he could just scare so easily when he was bored at times!

And i still had those horrible nightmares cause of what he did all those decades ago, honestly, i hoped that he was gone for good when he disapeared for all those years. I thought that this torment was all over but no, he's back and only god knows what he's planning on doing to this hotel and Charlie...

Oh poor Charlie.....

What an i going to do....?
