They often claim the devil walks among us, but that, of course, is a falsehood. It is devils who do. Demian led a double life. By day, he was the polished director of a small private clinic, impeccably dressed and confident amidst the hustle and bustle of the big city. But when darkness fell, when the city plunged into its nocturnal secrets, he became the son of shadows and light. For two decades, he had journeyed through his own uncertainties, confronting his inner demons, learning to defy inherited flaws. When a solution to his current troubles appears on the horizon, Demian realizes he must seek help, though he had never done so before. But why is she so special? What does she carry within her, that key which can unlock the demons within him? In that enigma, Demian will discover that the key is not merely a phrase, but a person - a person who has learned to dance with darkness and light, who is simultaneously mystery and answer.

"This is an Angel girl named Maisie Lark. She hasn't ever stepped foot into the 'real world'. Attempting to break the lock is useless and I have the key. I've extended the olive branch. Maisie's your motive. Come find me when you're ready." Cecilia Star has been alive long enough to know what it's like to be a demon in the human realm, but she's also been alive long enough to cope with her everyday life. But when she wakes up handcuffed to a strange Angel she's never met before, she's thrown for a loop. Cecilia assumes it's all just one big, extremely cruel prank by the twins in order to rile her up and test her limits. After all, Maisie is everything that Cecilia would rather leave behind her, determined, opinionated, and so very clearly wrong. But it doesn't take Cecilia and Maisie long to realize that the handcuff prank is a little more than just a lighthearted joke. The thing about Demon metal is that it is a fickle thing. It can only be unlocked by the person who has the key and no matter what method is used, it cannot be broken. Cecilia would rather just forget the whole thing, refuse to give Ezekiel the satisfaction he so wants, and remain handcuffed to Maisie for the rest of her life. It doesn't take long to realize that it's just not possible. Maisie is everything that she shouldn't be in the human realm. Bigoted, rude, and annoyingly difficult. She can't even get close to Cecilia without making some sort of remark on how she can't stand Demons. As the time ticks down and options become less and less, maybe being handcuffed to each other will teach Cecilia and Maisie a thing or two about themselves. Maybe running from the past isn't the right choice and perhaps, maybe even a Demon and Angel could fall in love too. (Entered in the Open Novella Contest 2022 under prompt 79.
