Middle Management (Alastor x Reader Fanfiction)
[UPDATES DROP SUNDAY/MONDAY, NOT WEEKLY] [!!PAUSED!!] Being the sole inhabitant of Purgatory is, 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨. You get to meet a lot of people, fun little characters with all their individual quirks and kinks but they never stay so there was no point in letting yourself be too close with any of them. All of them had places to go and your role in their short stay would only be limited to documenting them and giving them a small pep talk before sending them to their door. They won't remember you and you wouldn't need to remember them. A boring but straightforward way of living. At least it was as simple as that. Imagine your surprise when Lucifer - after so long - barges into your little office, asking you to be a patron of a hotel in his kingdom for the sake of his child. Offering you a brief respite from your monotonous routine and unbeknownst to you, an upheaval from everything you were ever used to.

One you didn't take until you were actually out. But with every deal, there's a cost. One you didn't know would enslave you to the man you would dub a monster, even after he saved you. ❤️This story was made in 2022, it may not be accurate to the show, this Alastor is based on the one from the pilot❤️ __NOTES__ ⚠️THIS IS A STORY FOR MATURE AUDIENCES! 18+ ⚠️ ♡Reader at first will be a bit naive but will later become more feisty ♡Reader is female, she|her ♡Alastor will be called Radio for MANY chapters ♡Does not deal much with the Happy/Hazbin Hotel but will a bit later ♡abuse, cursing, smoking, drugs/alcohol, vulgar language/actions, sexual mentions ♡Since Al is ace there will be no sex, just fluff related stuff ♡Al will be slightly OC and slightly yandere ♥︎Art credit: @gpz666 on X/Twitter {I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS OR ARTS AT THE TOP OF THE CHAPTERS!
