so warm.. The young woman swam in blissful unconsciousness, feeling around the soft fabrics around her. It was just a dream after all. A sense of relief filled her but she soon began hearing the sounds of the wind whistle outside and muffled voices around her.

"...thank you good sir......yes pigman is gone....the young girls have been returned to the city and back to their homes...."

the familiar charming voice seemed to be speaking to someone through the phone.

"...now now good sir...you can bring the money later.. I'll be rather busy this afternoon...good day..." he hung up and slowly got up and sat onto the side of the young woman's bed, gently stroking her hair.

Her eyes slowly opened, looking up to the finger who was giving her such a tender touch on her head. She was met with the same smile she saw the night before.

"Good morning little rabbit. You were asleep for a quite a while."

The rabbit was confused, her mind was still trying to put the pieces together and they were still as disorderly as they were when she got here.
"I....where...are we?" she whispered

"in the happy hotel. I thought this place would be safe for you to rest."

"th.the happy hotel?"

"yes. it's quite a quiet pl-"

Before he could finish his sentence, a pink demon just kicked in the door and looked at the two.
"Alastor, daddy welcome back!" he screamed but was soon flung to the side by the red demon's slapping motion.

"Now now angel. Haven't you learned any manners? And haven't I told you to stop calling me that?" his tone was pretty dark and he gently got up.
Angel was getting up slowly and sighed.

"But it fits you perfectly! like strawberry pi-"
"no! not that one either. Don't make me reconsider about the mussel idea."
At the word mussel, he quickly stood straight and his eyes went wide.

"Sorry sorry sorry! I'll be good." He soon noticed the rabbit like ears on the girl. "ummm who's that?"
"Angel, This young miss is new to hell. So I'd suggest you don't scare her off." That's when he returned to sit on the side of the bed. "which reminds me.. I have yet to hear your name."

"I...I'm (Y/N)..." she said a bit frightened still.

The world looked like a horrific nightmare. the people looked insane, her appearance was now the look of someone out of some odd fantasy of a man who enjoyed animal like features on women and she could not find any peace in his craziness... Thats when she felt his hand softly hold hers.
"Hmm you seem to be shivering again. Know that this place is safe." Alastor gently said. "My name is Alastor. and this rather rude spider like demon is Angel. Do not worry about him. He's as dangerous as a small chihuahua."

Angel dramatically gasped. "Hey! I can be pretty dangerous when I can be."

The rabbit looked to him and nodded. "thank you..."

Angel looked to her a bit confused touching at her rabbit ears. "damn what's with the rabbit ears? I never got to see anybody with that big of rabbit ears before."

The young woman quickly pulled away the ear. "Hey easy...please...they are sensitive.."

"But they are soft. Let me at em!" That's when he saw Alastor's dark expression while (Y/N) looked up to to him. He immediately let go.
"O-oh right I shoooooould....head back!" he quickly ran out of the room in a hurry.

The rabbit quickly smoothed out her rabbit ears and sighed. "this is a curse...." She soon felt a soft hand on her head and she gazed to the man still by her side.
"It's not as cursed as they seem. You'll get used to them. Just like i got used to my deer appearance." He smiled. She looked down feeling a little bad about complaining of her animal like aspects when this man has some as well.
"umm Alastor...thank you for saving me..." she blushed. She couldn't believe her cheeks reddened not only in embarrassment but also out of how those red eyes could just peer into her soul. A soft kiss was laid on her hand by the demon as he smirked.
"No need to thank me darling." he smiled and saw her ears were down and her eyes kept avoiding his eyes. He chuckled in response. "Not used to this kind of affection?"
The girl perked up, embarrassed. "N-no it's not that I....yeah it is..."
He laughed a bit and he softly pet her head again.

"Don't worry..you're in safe hands here." He quickly got up and gently bowed to her, extended his hand to her. "Now...shall we get you breakfast? you must be starving."

"Oh no I'm n-" her stomach on command growled loudly for a few seconds and quickly hid her face in one of her hands while the other gently grabbed onto alastor's extended one.
"L-let's go."
