Angel Dust has always known that Valentino owned his body - but learning the moth-demon owns his soul too shatters what little hope he had left. One storm-drenched night, Angel sits alone in the ruined streets of Hell, mascara running, heart broken, and contract heavy in his trembling hands. He's prepared to give up on everything... until a shadow falls over him.
An umbrella clicks open.
Husk - grumpy, jaded, and sick of getting dragged into other people's messes - silently holds it above them both.
Husk hates that he cares.
Angel hates that someone noticed.
When Husk brings Angel back to the Hazbin Hotel, Charlie and Vaggie try to help, Niffty fusses, Cherri Bomb and Sir Pentious bicker, and Alastor observes with dangerous amusement. But nothing is simple. Husk recognizes something familiar in Angel's desperation - the bitter truth that his own soul is chained to Alastor, and he's terrified to face it.
The tension between Angel and Husk simmers fast into an enemies-to-lovers spiral, made worse by Angel's nightly screaming nightmares - echoes of Valentino, Vox, and Velvette's cruelty. Husk tries to ignore them... until one night he can't.
And halfway through the chaos, when Husk escapes to his abandoned old gambling casino to clear his head from Angel, the Radio Demon, and everything else, he sees something he never expected -
Angel Dust, in breathtaking drag, performing under neon lights... at Husk's old casino.
And in that moment, something inside Husk wakes up - something gentle, dangerous, and impossible to ignore.
A story of trauma, healing, found family, burning contracts, and love blooming in the darkest corners of Hell.
"Curiosity killed the kitty Miss Adams."
My body stiffened. Slowly I turned around just to see Mr. Parker standing in front of me with hands in his trouser pockets. I bit my lip. I thought he would be angry but when I looked at him. His face showed no emotion. He then started walking towards me I moved back. This continued until my back hit the door. Then he placed his one hand on my side, leaning forward, close to me.
"What was rule number three Miss Adams." His face was extremely close to mine my breath got hitched. I couldn't answer his question why? Because I was more focused in the distance between us.
"I asked you something Miss Adams." He said again.
"T-That t-there a-are prohibited areas i-in the house where I shouldn't g-go."
"It seems like you remember the rules. This room is one of those prohibited areas. So, from next time think before you put yourself into trouble."
I just stared at his eyes. I was lost in those pair of sea-coloured eyes. No other guy has ever affected me this much as Mr. Parker. I get nervous around him. I don't know what this feeling is but this feeling is different. A feeling that I have never felt for anyone.
"Understood?" he said again.
I nodded. "Yes Mr. Parker."
