The Devils Fate

" I pity the weak like you, all of you fools make me sick to my stomach."

I say grabbing a clump of the poor angels hair, bringing her face closer to mine. Her dark green eyes piercing my soul. As I stare deeper into her soul, her body trembling beneath me. Letting go of her hair, I forcefully push her face away.

" You'll never get away with this, they will find me and when they do you'll be sorry you ever laid a finger on me!"

I can't help but laugh, pitying the girl who is at my mercy. Before turning back around to face the angel before me I grab a whip that has been carefully placed on the table. Turning around swaying the whip between my fingers. I look up at her seeing the fear plastered all of her perfect face. A small chuckle leaves my lips before lashing the angel across the face. Tears begin to roll down her pale face, slowly dripping to her heaving chest. I crouch getting to her level, grabbing her now battered face.

" Never ever disrespect me in any way, shape, or form. Next time I won't be so lenient."

I say before standing to my feet, towering over the poor soul before me. I don't feel remorse for the souls I torture. They were sent here to pay for all the horrible things they did on Earth. So why should I feel sorry for them. At the end of the day I'm not the bad guy. I'm just a good guy who has to do bad things. This is my purpose here in hell. After Lucifer had retired and I had taken his place as head honcho, there has been a couple of changes around here. I give everyone who comes to hell there own little cell of torment. What ever the human had regret the most on earth is what they will live through for eternity. No one has ever escaped, and no one ever will.

" Why are you doing this to me, we use to be friends? What has happened to you Lavina?"

She says drawing me out of my own thoughts. I turn around facing her once more, her eyes are watery from the countless tears she had cried after I'd whipped her. Her eyes now puffy and red, she stares at me awaiting an answer.

" You know what you did, so don't go playing victim. You're just as guilty as anyone else who agreed on sending me here!"

Her eyes grew wide, as I stepped closer to her looking down at her. I can hear her heart skip a beat, as I stare her down. I turn away heading towards the cell door. Her chains rattle as she tries to stand on her feet. Her helpless sobs growing louder, echoing through the small dingy cell. I open the door stepping out into the light. As the door closes behind me her sobs and screams can still be heard. Before heading to my duties I let out a small sigh. Walking down the empty hallway the screams of the damned can be heard all around me. It's been over a thousands years and I feel as if I still haven't gotten use to them. Reaching the end of the hall I step into the double doors seeing Orzono and Empusa still awaiting my return. The door closing behind me sealing off all the screams.

" Your majesty, how is the prisoner?"

Lost in my thoughts again I look at Orzono with a smile.

" Tormented as she should, but don't forget to send a maid to deliver her dinner at 8:00. I'm going to head upstairs for a shower when I'm done I want dinner in my quarters is that understood? Oh and please bring Thar with you. I am in need of some company."

They bow and head off to their duties. I continue walking to my covenant, fading into my thoughts step by step. The stairs feel endless. I feel as if I am in a time loop. As I reach the top of the stairs I shake my thoughts away focusing on the reason I am here. I walk through the double doors, these ones much larger than the ones before. Stepping into my dimly lit room, I take off my jacket hanging it on the coat rack next to the door. Undoing my hair as I head to the bathroom. The lights immediately turning on as I enter the room. I admire myself in the larger mirror before undressing. Turning my back to the mirror I look at the two scars which are a constant reminder of the failure that I am.

"How did I end up here?"

I whisper to myself while leaning on the edge of the bathroom sink. A small sigh leaves my mouth before I turn to the shower, turning it on as steam starts to fill the room. I hop in the hot water hitting my back. Turning around facing the water allowing it to drain down my face. I can feel the tears in me try to emerge and break through to the surface. The urge to allow myself cry makes me feel sick. Pushing back the thought, I run my fingers through my wet hair. I finally bring myself to turn off the shower. Stepping out wrapping my towel around me, heading back to my room. I turn the corner noticing Thar patiently waiting for me on the bed.

"Aw what a good boy you are. I missed you so much."

I say grabbing my hell hounds face, placing a peck on his forehead before going to grab the night gown placed neatly on my bed. I slip it on the silk material grazing my skin. The gown gently grazing my shoulder, the end softly brushing against my thighs. I head to my desk where my food has already been placed. I push the tray of food aside grabbing the file that had been placed below it. I open it reading the content inside. Silently flipping through the pages scanning the information I need. I then take out a note pad from inside one of the desk drawers, writing down everything that will be useful for me to proceed with my plans. As the night goes on, my eyelids become heavy with each stroke of my pen. Writing down my last word, I lay my head on the desk full of papers and drift asleep. My thoughts yet consuming me yet again, before my mind goes black.
