I was lying on Cerberus bed looking at the ceiling, he was next to me and had fallen asleep almost two hours ago, assuming I wasn't going to sleep tonight I left the room and walk to the lobby and sit on the first couch I saw.

"What should I do with Alastor?" I started to think "Should we leave this hotel? No... of course, if we do we will be safe, but what about the others, what about if he follow us?"

I looked at my sleeping partner and son, I knew I should talk to Alastor, that was the best option...

I left the room being careful not to make a sound. When I was about to close the door I saw Cerberus's ears move, but he didn't wake up.

I took a deep breath and murmured a- He's gonna kill me... again- and made my way to his room. And there I was, standing by his door I sighed and knock at his door hoping he was sleeping and didn't open it.

His shadow opened it. Shit. 

I burst into de dark room with my head high and arms crossed, but he wasn't there... or at least I didn't see him.

I heard the door close and when I look behind me I saw him, he used his shadow to appear behind me. We looked at each other for a few moments, an awkward silence invaded the room but he broke it.

-What brings you here darling?- He asked, his voice makes me know that he was tired, but he still hasn't even taken his coat off yet, even after 2 hours or so, it has stains of blood, but not my son's blood.

-I need to talk to you... and I...- I started to walk through the room- I know it's pretty late and all... but...- I sigh- you know I can't sleep when something like this is on my mind- I look at his red eyes, they glow brighter in this dark room.

-I don't know... should I listen to you after what happened lately?- he hides his hands behind his back and stand proud and tall. He was looking at me like I was trash.

-I knew it was a bad idea- I make my way to the door, I was leaving- sorry for wasting your time- I was about to grab the knob but his shadow didn't let me do it.

-I'll listen- Alastor said- but you will have to answer me a few questions...

-Fine...- I look at him again- I want to know why you attacked my son?- I said- it's obvious that you were upset, that's why your coat is covered in blood, isn't it?

-I was out off control, I apologize, I attacked him because he disrespects me the other day- he admitted. 

-So you attacked him, and the other demons just because your pride was hurt?- I was surprised by his narcissist self.

-I think so- He said- is that all?

-No... look- I sigh and embraced myself- I don't want it to happen again... so... I propose you a deal... Alastor.

*3rd person POV*

The deer demon looked at the woman who once was his lover, he knew this was his opportunity, his smile grew wider.

-What kind of deal dear?- he asked, looking at her form.

-I...- she doubted it for a second- In order to protect what's important to me, I... I'll make a deal with you, I offer you whatever you want, of course leaving me some liberties, and... in return... you will not harm anyone here, you won't make a deal with anyone in the hotel, that includes Charlie, you will protect my son and the hotel staff... those are my conditions...- she extended her hand to make the deal, a pink light came across the room.

Alastor looked at her extended hand, he doubted it for a bit and then extended his own hand, a green light illuminated the room, soon the both of them shake hands and close the deal, (y/n) looked at their hands not believing what she has done- so... what do you want in return?
