((Happy surprise Monday post! I'm hoping to start posting three chapters a week! Saturday, Sunday, and Monday! Hope this brings a smile to your face!))
*The prey's POV*
I remembered earlier in the night many demons either paying to play their favorite songs, or horribly singing karaoke versions of their favorite songs. Though I came for social interactions. Getting to hear others sing made me feel like I actually have friends.
Then I heard her. I actually had to turn my head to see if someone could truly sing that in tune. I've never heard the song before, and I don't remember her as a regular of this club. But damn, something about her.
The way she moved, her perfect pitch, the wink she gave as she smiled in my direction. I was smitten for sure. I know I was just as sucked in as every other demon in this building, but I felt like my heart was going to explode with desire for her attention just by hearing her voice.
When she started moving around and handing out flyers, I could only hope she would hand me one. Then, I finally got a hold of one. I never wanted to let it go. I didn't care what it said, I would follow her to the ends of this world.
Looking at the silly flyer, it looked like it was an advertisement for the Hazbin Hotel. Is that where she lived? I could take redemption seriously if it meant I got to see her more often. After tonight, no more drinks! Tonight is my final run!
I've spent too many hours at this club, I don't even know what time it is anymore. My vision is so blurry I can't even read the time on my phone. I'm such a mess.
I just wanted a fun night out, but as always, I had to go too hard and now I can barely function. An alcoholic in life and in death.
Jumping off the bar stool and then holding onto the ledge for balance I take a few deep breaths to gather my composure. I just need to have enough balance to walk out and make it home.
Once I open the door, I realize how late it truly is. I was in that damn building pretty much all day. I'm such a waste. Starting tomorrow, I'll do better! I'll work towards redemption! To see her! That beautiful fox.
"Hey." I hear a female voice from the alleyway between the two buildings. I usually ignore these calls, but that voice is familiar.
When I turn my head, I see her glowing (e/c) eyes, focusing only on me. The attention I want! What is she doing here? What does she want with me?
"I've been waiting for you." She says with that same seductive smirk I saw earlier. She motions her finger for me to walk closer. "Do you have a minute?" She asks.
"Y-yeah." I stutter, confused but happy. I walk into the alleyway, closer to the beautiful fox. Her tail sways so perfectly. She's taller than me, but so gorgeous!
She puts a hand on her hip, still smiling at me. "Thanks, cutie." She says in that sweet voice, looking down at me. My heart is beating so fast.
"Now, my boss says you haven't paid him back in a few weeks. He was kind enough to lend you some money. A favor, for a fine demon like yourself." She runs her hand up my neck and stops at my chin. Her boss? Who's her boss? I owe a lot of people money.
"Oh. Things have been a little difficult. B-but I'll have it by next week!" I assure her. I know I will. When I turn things around, I'll be able to repay my debts and move on.
She pouts her lips like she's unhappy with my response. "I don't know if that will be good enough." She whines, looking behind her in the shadows. "What do you think, boss man?" She asks.
"Not even close." Shit... no. I remember that staticky voice. She works for him?! Since when does he have a sweet thing like her under his wing?! NO! She must see the shift in my eyes because something in hers changes. I didn't see this earlier.
She's excited by my fear.
I see the tall red Radio Demon walk calmly from the shadows behind her. I didn't even realize that she's grabbed hold of the collar of my shirt until I tried taking a step back. I'm done for!
She tilts her head to the side, a crazed look in her glowing demonic eyes. "Aw, sorry hun. You heard him." She says like I just lost a game of Monopoly. Like it's no big deal.
With one of her hands on my collar and the other one raised up, my eyes move to the dagger she's holding in her other hand. She's seriously going to kill me?! For him?! Not her! She seemed too perfect!
"Wait..." His staticky voice interrupts her. She looks annoyed as her glowing eyes shift over to him, a grip still on my shirt. She doesn't ask him anything, but it looks like she wants to.
He walks up to her and wraps something around her dagger, it looks like a small red ruby pendant of some sort. Before he backs away, he also dresses my darling fox with a red ruby necklace, moving her beautiful (h/c) hair out of the way so he can properly clasp the necklace. It looks like both pendants match.
"Now when they die by your hand, their soul will belong to you." The Radio Demon mentions to her. She looks confused at him, looking at her dagger but still not letting me go. "You need something to store their soul in. The weapon you attack with will transfer it to your necklace and you'll feel the power flow through you." He explains to her. He would know. He's a fucking overlord! Is he going to make her an overlord too?!
She hums like she's impressed with the news, her tail swaying with excitement. That crazed look in her eyes is still there, and it's moved back over to me. "Sounds wonderful." Her glowing eyes move up and down my frame as she licks her lips. She looks like she's going to devour me. In a way I guess she is. Why is my heart still beating like this? I should be scared! I WAS scared! But now...?
"What do you say, hot stuff?" She asks me, looking directly into my soul. "Offer your eternal soul to me. Make me stronger." It sounds like a demand. I don't know if I really have a choice.
"Yes." The word comes out as a whisper and her eyes widen in what I can only assume is a crazed lust to kill. "Let me help you. Take what you need from me." When did I become so pathetic?
I was going to change tomorrow.
I don't even remember the pain. I don't remember the sounds that surrounded me. I know the darkness slowly crept into my vision. My world slowly sank into what was before me. My previous life and time in Hell were over. My useless alcoholic life and being in constant debt to others. The last thing I remember were her beautiful glowing eyes.
*Your POV*
What is this feeling? What is this power? Is this what it feels like to take another demon soul? "I... want... more."
"And you'll have more." Alastor says to me with a hand on my shoulder.
Wait... did I say that out loud?
