Summary
"Which Duke do you work under?" Azirafell asked conversationally, snapping a mug of something hot and sweet into existence and taking a sip. "Because I do hope they're considering you for promotion."
"Ngh?" Raphael blinked, feeling a little like the muddy rug had been pulled out from beneath him. "What?"
"Well, an enterprising young demon like you…" Azirafell smiled at him in a way that was all Lecherous Temptation, Raphael could tell from the detestable effect it had on the very pit of his stomach. "...ought to go places, in my humble opinion."
"Hah." Said Raphael, very lost. "Demon?"
In which the Archangel Raphael watches over humanity, prevents the End of the World, and spends 6000 years falling in love with a demon who doesn't even know his real name.
It's fine...
...until Heaven finds out, that is.- Language:
