Alastors green magic swirled around their connected hands and swiftly became chains around Lucifers neck. Disappearing just a few seconds later to make themselves know Alastor grin sharpened and he let go. He was in charge now the one with the power and the king couldn't do anything about it.

The king meanwhile blinked slowly, reaching his now free hand up to touch the non existent chains that did feel like they were there At least his daughter was free that's the only good thing he felt like he would get out of this. Lucifer sighed and looked down, it just occurred to him he could have used magic to FORCE Alastor into releasing his daughter! Now by the rules he made for his domain he had to follow through with things as is

Lucifer stopped spacing out and pulled his hand away and looked down but for a moment he could swear he stopped hearing the soft yet quiet music that plagued his mind for so long. The music seemed like a far away voice to him, just barely heard but still there. Lucifer shook his head before stepping away to find his daughter only to be stopped by Alastors invisible chains

"Hold on there my dear fellow, I'm not quite done with you" The deer demon said with a sharpened grin, scowling down at the short king. Lucifer stared up at him and tried to move back again anyways, inwardly panicking a bit "what do you even want right now? We just made the deal"

"True, but I do have a few questions for you anyways It'll be swell to learn the amount of power the new soul I have on a leash is capable of, hmm?" Oh he hated the stupidly smug smile Alastor wore in that moment, almost making Lucifer want to slap it right off him. "Can't we just do this another ti-

"Oh but why not now? It's not like you have any family who needs you now, or ever for that manner!

"You wouldn't really understand, you're too old to know anyways" Lucifer gained a little bit of confidence, not wanting to let Alastor have the upper hand Alastor stiffened and grabbed the kings shirt collar roughly before raising him up a bit so they were face to face while the deer's body darkened into a form similar to his true demonic form

"I would watch my tounge if I were you, You higness." Alastor spat with spite, staring st the king like he wanted to kill him. But all the while Lucifer stood his ground and TRIED to be brave.  Alastor saw this and grabbed Lucifers hair to sharply tug his head back, forcing Lucifer to look at him.

"I own you now. Your in my debt, keep talking like that I will break off this deal and see what I can do to hurt dear miss Charlie. Do you understand?" Lucifer froze and nodded, he can't let Charlie get hurt because of his stupid pride.. what kinda father would he be?

Alastor went back to his normal form and let go of Lucifer, who promptly fell to the ground and dragged his wings close. Alastor glared down at his small victory before  leaving the room.
