See My Heart, Not My Body {Alastor x Female Reader}

Circle of Rainbows

"Okay!" Charlie's chipper voice rang out among the circle of chairs. You were sitting on one of the hard metal folding chairs they had set up. She had asked you to pick the seat you liked best since you wouldn't be able to find a seat with everyone else in the room.

"You know, since you can't..."

"Open my eyes, yeah, I got it. Thanks Princess."

You had sunglasses on, looking around the room. It had dark colored walls with intricate paintings. Angel sat somewhere off to the left, you could hear him tapping on his phone, and Vaggie was hurrying around the room.

Charlie's voice chirped out again. "Okay, I think that's everything! I'm so excited to get to know everyone!"

You could practically hear her smile.

"Okay, Alastor, you can bring in the others!"

You heard the elegant steps of Alastor enter the room, followed by heavy sets of multiple people's footfalls. You heard Husk's gruff muttering among the crowd. You could hear some murmurs of those you couldn't recognize.

You felt people seat around you and you kept your eyes shut tight. They didn't feel familiar, and you didn't want to risk anything.

Alastor spoke up now. "There we go my dear, all heads accounted for and seated properly, other than you and myself of course."

There was a scrape of a chair as an excited demoness princess hopped into her place.

"Well I suppose that only leaves myself then. Hmmm, where to sit..."

Angel piped up, about 5 feet to the left of you. "Got a seat right here for you Al, I even kept it warm~"

A string of static emitted from Alastor, and you couldn't help but laugh a little bit. Angel always was good to have around for a laugh.

Alastor's presence suddenly got very close to you. "Sorry my dear, but I would like this seat."

You figured he was speaking to someone next to you or near you, so you sat, tapping your fingers on your thigh.

"[Y/N]. I am talking to you darling."

......

You were in awe. Does he actually expect you to move seats without opening your eyes?

"I'm waiting [Y/N]."

You heard Charlie from the other side of the circle. "Hey, Al, maybe she should stay there..."

"What goes on between my assistant and I, Princess, is no business of yours."

You suddenly felt a tug on your neck, as if you had a collar on and it had just been yanked. You were pulled up into a standing position and pulled to the center of the circle. You heard the creak of a chair being sat in.

"Thank you my dear! There's a seat open right over there."

He had to be pointing. The circle was dead silent as you imagined everyone staring at you. Watching you. Seeing you stuck, trapped.

Your hands started to shake a little as old emotions overwhelmed you, but you shoved them in your pockets. You let out a soft exhale and heightened your internal sense.

Alastor was sitting behind You, in your old seat. You could feel his power. You focused on that and pretended to walk around in a daze. You heard some snickers but you ignored them.

You turned right back to where you knew Alastor was and started to sit.

Right where you would be sitting on his lap.
