‹ Lucifer might act different to how he did in the first book , I went for a more serious , but still fun version . ›

‹ No I didn't pre - write this chapter ,  I stayed up till 1 AM to write it and decided to post it today ,  hope you enjoy ›

" Uh ... hi ? "

The stranger gave an awkward smile , shifting his weight from one foot to another . Alastor did a double take , looking him up and down with pure hatred in his eyes . It was the same man , but he had changed , a lot .

For starters , his god - awful mask was gone - Thank the Lord . Still , Alastor couldn't ignore the tiny spark of fear that awakened inside of him , remembering the scar that traced along his torso .

" I'll ask again ... What in the blazes are you doing here " Alastor hissed , his staff appearing in his hands . He pushed one end at Adam's chest , shoving him backwards .

Adam gave a growl in response , " Geez , show the first man some respect , you fucker "

Alastor descended into a fit of maniacal laughter , his ears going down as he wiped a tear from his eye . Even the air around him glitched , a regular sign of anger that the guests recognized . They backed away , fear in their eyes as they bolted to their rooms , hiding from Alastor . Though , the deer seemed to forget they were even there .

Adam's eyes flared with anger , " HEY ! Show some respect , I could still crush you in a second ! "

At that , Alastor only fell to the ground , his laughter intensifying , the only thing keeping him from completely collapsing in amusement - his staff , which he held by the mic . " Oh , oh dear , I think you've forgotten ! " He smiled , an unhinged , satanic smile as he stood .

" You're in my domain now , Adam ! You fell from grace ... You're not as powerful as you used to be , are you ? " Alastor said quietly , staring into Adam's eyes , the fear melting away as he took in the realization - Adam was now a sinner .

HAH ! How ironic ... Became what he was set to kill ? Ohhh , that was hilarious !

" Shut up ... I want to talk to Charlie ... " Adam huffed , his wings flaring . Alastor poked at the feathers with the edge of his staff , which he then wiped on the floor , " I'm afraid she's busy , talking with hotel staff members , plans , that of course , she cannot be interrupted ... You'll have to wait dear "

" I want to talk to Charlie " Adam repeated , his face contorting in a scowl . A spark of annoyance flared in Alastor's eyes , " She's busy . " He repeated , hooking Adam's ' robe ' with his staff and dragging him into the lobby . " You'll have to ... wait " The deer smiled , a forced note of insane levity on the word wait .

' Crush him ... He tried to kill you ... Kill him '

Alastor rolled his eyes , his ear giving an annoyed twitch . " So , those are real ears , huh ? ~ " Adam called , trying to get a rise out of the Overlord . Alastor let out a small laugh , " Ah , ah , ah ! ~ I wouldn't try that if I were you ... The roles have switched , I have the higher ground this time ... " Alastor reminded him , not facing the Angel .

" As soon as I get off this ... You'll never find me "

" You don't seem to grasp ... " Alastor shushed Adam with a menacing tone , a wide , wide smile on his face as his eyes darkened , " You're not safe ... You'll never be safe , see ... Now that I know ... You're here ... I'll always know . Always , you can't hide ... Not with Vox , not with anyone . "

Even if Alastor couldn't see him , he could feel the fear radiating off Adam . Such a satisfying feeling ... Adam in the position he once was .

" Alastor " Lucifer's voice rang out in the lobby , a guest peeking up from behind the couch . " My Lord ~ " Alastor hummed , " Look who I found ~ "

Lucifer's eyes narrowed , " Adam ... "

" Lucifer " Adam growled .

" Hush . I might just beat you up again if you continue . " Lucifer raised a finger , shushing Adam for a second time , to which the First Man let out a low growl but said nothing .

" Now , now ... Restrain yourself , your highness " Alastor laughed , gripping his staff .

Lucifer looked at Alastor in confusion , tilting his head , " You never call me that . What has happened ? " " Oh , let's talk later , Adam requests an audience with Charlie , " Alastor replied , a wide smile on his face as he poked at Adam again .

" Quit it " Adam growled , only serving to amuse Alastor more . He hooked Adam's robe on his mic again and dragged him over . Adam's wings flailed helplessly as he rose in the air , an unsuccessful attempt to break free .

" Let's go , shall we ? ~ Hmm ? " Alastor hummed , shoving his mic forward as he did so , straight into Adam's stomach .

" FUCK ! ! ! " Adam yelled . Rust red eyes shot sideways to stare at him , " Oh refrain from using such language now , it's foul ~ " The staticky voice came , the sound of Adam dragging against the wooden floors of the hotel fading away as the trio exited the lobby .

Guests looked at each other , a chorus of whispers starting up as they discussed what had just happened .

" Was that Adam ? "

" Wow , Alastor has some nerve "

" This just makes him scarier , doesn't it ... "

" He has nerve to talk to the King of Hell like that "

" Is it true ? Adam is weak now ? "

" That's a relief "

" But I thought he died ? "

" Who cares , the Radio Demon and the King of Hell will take care of him "

" Why does he want to talk with the Princess ? "

Alastor's ears twitched , the whispers faintly reaching him . He knocked politely on the Princess' door . " Charlie ! ~ " He called in a sing - song voice , shoving the business end of his mic into Adam's stomach again , silencing him when he opened him mouth to talk .

" Someone requests an audience with you ! ~ "

For a moment , the only noise was the door creaking open , followed by a choir of exclamations , curses and gasps .

" Alastor , is that ... ADAM ? ! "
