Devil's Secret: An Alastor & Lucifer Tale

You're Not a Deer

                        Alastor had gone to his room to shower and get himself cleaned, it took a bit of work to get the stains from his clothes but one of the magical things about Hell was that one's clothing could be restored with Power.  Maybe.  Don't question it.  As that had taken some time, the Radio Demon found himself within the suite looking about for something to do in the meantime while Lou healed.  For a day.  Unsure of who or what would want to harm Lou as he rested, the request was a way for him to repay the Broker Demon back for all that he has done.  Again, it wasn't something the Radio Demon was used to when it came to others helping him and for a time he would get a book and read.  Tapping his claws along the couch armrest or looking outside at some fools killing each other in an alley, okay he was truly bored.  It was rare that he ever needed to sleep, more for recreational purposes and as he finished reading every book he cared to look at a knock came at the door.  His ears perked as his grin widened, going to answer the door he came to lay his eyes upon a Demoness with the features of a sheep wearing a maid outfit.

"Housekeeping, would you like me to clean anything for you, Sir?"

"Why Hello there, don't need anything cleaned but how would you like to keep me company, Dear?"  The question startled her as she looked around, the Demon in front of her was quite charming and she didn't want to be rude to a guest.  Of course, she had forgotten that any Demon who stayed in that particular suite was supposed to be off limits to staff but all the same.  She smiled and nodded at his request,

"I would be happy to keep you company, Sir."  She entered the room as Alastor's gaze followed the Demoness, oh what fun this will be.  She looked around for a bit as Alastor went to sit in a recliner while crossing a leg over his other and folding his hands in his lap.  He looked her up and down while holding a friendly smile before asking,

"So mind if I ask what a sweet little lamb like you is doing down in this hellhole?"  She stood with hooves in front of her, the room was really grand but his question distracted her from looking as she was near him like a servant would be.

"Oh, well a sin is a sin but I found a good job here.  Treat me well they do.  My name Meera."  She didn't go into any more detail as she was sure the other didn't really care about her personal life, just making conversation.

"I can imagine, this place is quite luxurious!  This room seems to be one of your best, no?  Never been here but something tells me it is," at this point, the Radio Demon was digging for information as to how Lou was able to get this room in such a hurry without having to spend too much time at the front desk.  It was odd but he knew the other was holding out on him, Meera grew somewhat nervous as she recalled the details of this room now.  It was off limits to staff but leaning a bit closer to whisper,

"Important Demon only stays in this room, that's all I know.  Is that you, Sir?"  Alastor glanced at the room Lou was in and smiling he just chuckled,

"Of course not Dear, say how about you make some tea?  I'm sure it will help to relax the mood?"  She looked towards the small kitchen of the suite and nodding she happily went to look through the cabinets before finding it in the top shelf.  Sadly, she was too short to reach and upon seeing this Alastor stood to go over and lend a hand as he looked through the many teas and set them out for her along with the kettle and some dishware.  He then leaned against the opposite counter to watch as she prepared it, again looking her up and down he could sense that constant hunger of his as it was reaching its pique.  Once the tea was done though, she turned to ask,

"Sugar or honey? Oh, Meera didn't catch your name, sir?"  She smiled at him as he chuckled, his grin stretched wide across his face.

"I'm Alastor, a pleasure to be meeting you, sweetheart!"  Hearing the other's name, she couldn't help her expression of fear, her ears went back as she brought her hooves to her mouth to stifle the gasp. She took a step back,
