The Demon's Fall

"So did it hurt when you fell from heaven?"

I never understood why people would use that pick up line, it's not like I'm gonna say 'No, it was actually quite pleasant and a fun experience. Falling through time and space for eternity only to land face first on a cement sidewalk was really fun. Totally recommend it.'

In truth the landing was rough, it felt like I broke every bone in my body at once. But in reality, the most damage I did was to the sidewalk. I'm pretty sure there is an indent of my face left behind. But it was even worse when I was dragged kicking and screaming into hell.

I look up at the over-confident boy and smile. "No, but I actually scraped my arm crawling up from hell. Can you believe that?" I ask as I clutch my arm to my chest making sure he can see the wide scar, and his eyes widen.

Royalie has been more than content living a not-so-normal demon life. Given the privilege to walk top-side by the red devil himself under the condition of rounding up and putting an end to the supernaturals causing trouble for the underworld.

But what happens when one of Hell's enforcers itself breaks one of the biggest rules.....

Never trust a human
