Wings, Flings, and Demon Kings [Paranormal Romance]
[COMPLETE] A rambly angel. A debonair demon. A very stuck elevator... NIRAEL has never been the best angel. A little too loud, always in the wrong place at the wrong time, she constantly finds herself written up by her archangel superiors for minor misdemeanors. When her Remedial Goodness program forces her to do a capstone project on Earth, she decides this will be the day she finally turns her life around. That is, until she meets... AZERATH has always been a good demon. Which, for a demon, is tantamount to career suicide. Sent to Earth as part of his Remedial Evil program, his demonic superiors issue him an ultimatum: corrupt a hundred souls in the next month or risk being unmade. But they didn't specify that the souls he corrupts have to be human. Mostly romcom fluff with a dash of existential angst.Complete
