Alastors pov

I was sorting through paperwork that I'd been ignoring for some time now but now that I'm trying to stay away from Lucifer and these confusing feelings so now's as good as time as any-

"Hey ally!" I froze. I know that voice.

"Azriel" I forced a polite smile. I'm normally annoyed by the reaper but now I feel nervous. Him finding out about Lucifer could spell trouble.

He sat on his floating scythe with that carefree smile I hated so much "sooo how's the kids"

"I don't have children azriel" my smile twitched. He asked this every time.

"Still alone and miserable got it!" He hopped down off his scythe and approached me "as for me I recently got married. His name's Adam. The love of my life. It's nice having more than cats for company. You should try it sometime"

"Noted" I growled. That smug little prick!

"Anywho I've come to drop off some souls. After that I'll be out of your hair" thank Satan for tha-

"Hey Al" I froze. Lucifer. This is the worst time for him to show up "guess what I managed to make someone smile toda-" he stopped "Azriel?"

"Lulu" he rushed over and engulfed him in a hug "we were so worried. Where have you been-" suddenly the pieces clicked as he turned to me with an uncharacteristic anger in his eyes "you!" He took off his glove with a growl. The death touch. That's not good.

"Azzy wait" Lucifer grabbed his brother's arm "alastor wasn't trying to hurt me. Besides we made a deal that if I turned the people of the underworld good then he'd let me go home so I'll be back in no time"

"A game huh. That sounds fun" he put his glove back on and petted his brothers head "good job little brother. I should have known you wouldn't go down without a fight. But if he lays a hand on you" he picked up his scythe and pointed it at my neck "then I'll end his life in the most painful way possible. Understood?"

"I understand" I smiled nervously. He's even got me scared!

"Awesome sauce" he put his weapon away with a smile "see you around Luci. Keep me updated okay"

"Bye Azriel" he waved to him happily. My legs felt like jelly. Now I hate him even more!
