A Deal Worth A Lifetime [ Alastor x Reader ]

Chapter 25: A Crack in Her Shell

"Y/n you're back!" Mimzy was one of the first to greet you. Glad Alastor had chosen her.

"Yes, I see you made it to the hotel. When Alastor said he had brought someone in I was afraid it might've been someone else." You didn't catch her confused look as Alastor took your hand, leading you farther inside.

"So we did have the same person in mind, isn't that just wonderful!" Stationing you at the bar he motioned to the cat demon drinking a bottle of rum, "Have you met Husk yet? I'm sure you'll find him quite charming." The demon gave him a glare, tipping the bottle back and finishing its contents. Alastor had gone from your side before you knew it.

"What do you want lady?" Popping the cork from another bottle, this time vodka. He reminded you of your cat if your cat was thin, could speak and seemed to be an alcoholic. A loud gasp sounded making you turn your head, Mimzy and Alastor talking in hushed tones. What could they be-

"Y/n!" Charlie sped to your side, "it felt like you were gone forever, where were you?" She hugged you tight making you laugh.

"I was only gone for a few hours Sunshine," she let you go, "I guess I got into a tough spot with my last target on the way to get Mim? I never was the best at multitasking." Her hand's on your shoulders, looking you in the eye.

"But Y/n-" A cheery voice cut her off.

"Oh, Charlie!" Alastor called for the princess, catching your attention, "I think we need to discuss more business for the hotel." He whisked the girl away, talking her ear off. Smiling as you rest your elbows on the table, settling your head in your hands.

Things seemed to be going well so far.

"Charlie I know she seems different and I will explain later, you don't have to worry I have everything under control." The girl nodded, taking his arm from her shoulder.

"So Y/n isn't the same?"

"Yes, there was a bit of an accident with her last target, that's why I brought Mimzy to the hotel in her place," if the flapper were to hear him she would've called him out for his lie, "I'll explain it all later so just go with what she says for now." Letting the blonde go and seeing Angel Dust talking to you. He was sure it was fine, it's not like you had spent any actual time together that he knew about.

"Really? I don't remember, are you sure that happened?" Nevermind. Racing to your side and clearing his throat.

"Angel, I do believe your pig got out, Fat Nugget right?" He watched the spider go into panic mode, two hands grabbing either side of his head while the other two reached out in the direction he began to run.

Disappearing down the hall and far away from you. He had already informed Mimzy of the current situation. He watched as Niffty hoisted herself up on the barstool beside you, had Mimzy told her yet or-
