    Summary

    "It was a mistake, letting himself get comfortable with Lucifer, allowing this to go on for as long as it has, but there is an unfortunate truth, even to wretched souls like Alastor’s: a heart that has known love will always be weak to the affection of more.

    And as much as he had grown away from his earthly attachments, Alastor has not been immune to the love of another. His mother was the only person in his first life he spared a corner of his heart for. Lucifer now occupies the other, taking up an entirely different space, but space, nonetheless, in this second one.

    It would have been easier if Alastor had no one but himself. A person who has something at stake can never truly be free, not like someone who has nothing to lose, no one to weight him down, no heart to worry over.

    No one to come home to."

     

    OR:

    Alastor made a deal with the Devil and did not expect the feelings that came with it. Now something ancient stirs in the depths of Hell and he must decide how far he is willing to go to save him.

    If only Lucifer would let him, that would be great.

    Summary

    After Charlie gets that fateful call from her mother, she embarks on a mission more harrowing than redeeming lost souls, fighting overlords, or challenging the forces of Heaven.

    She’s going to help her dad get his groove back so he can win her mom's heart all over again!

    Alternate Summary:

    “You’re going to be fine,” Alastor drawls in Lucifer’s ear.

    Lucifer is not FINE. He’s literally in over his head. The line to the club, which they’re currently standing in, is a MOB of unknown, sweaty, disgusting bodies. There are sinners EVERYWHERE. It’s like driving through a valley lined with sneering, toothy, hungry-looking trees with dozens of beady, glowing eyes.

    He's going to DIE.

    “This is going to be so amazing,” Charlie gushes. She makes eye contact with him over her shoulder and grins wide.

    Lucifer tries to muster a return grin that looks enthusiastic and not as if he’s a single social interaction from developing stress fractures in his jaw.

    Summary

    Lucifer hasn’t left his mansion in ten years, and Ozzie is so sick of it that he drags him to the red light district to attempt to be social. After nearly a year, Lucifer is offered the chance to meet with a courtesan, and his inability to say no results in him picking the one courtesan famed for avoiding sex as much as possible: Alastor, the Reticent Courtesan.
    Alastor was sold to a brothel at the age of five and has been living as an oiran, the top rank of courtesan in the Pride red light district, for nearly a century. As could be expected, he hates it and his life. When he gets a strange, awkward new client, he finds himself oddly endeared and wonders if maybe, just maybe, it would be safe to put his trust in someone.
    As Lucifer struggles to navigate the complex rules and social structures of the red light district and Alastor struggles to trust his wary heart to another person, love and shenanigans blossom among adversity.

    Summary

    Did you know that the Spotted Lanternfly's favorite food is the wood of the Ailanthus tree, commonly known as “tree of heaven”?

    Alastor, head of the entomology department, knows that he is a devourer, he takes and he feeds and sates whatever his body demands and then he moves on, and he has never felt much remorse about that- life is too short and people are too much work: they always want too much of him.

    He doesn’t really understand what he’s done to pique the interest of the school’s new heartthrob professor: Lucifer Morningstar, but that's fine- Lucifer will tire of him once he realizes that Alastor’s only real passion in life is tiny gross things with six or more legs. If only he would stop asking him questions like he actually cares about Alastor’s answer:

    "What's your family like?"

    “What's with the invasive species obsession?”

    TLDR: “People aren’t pets, Alastor. You don’t get to pin them up on your board and watch them squirm."

    Summary

    After modern science fails Alastor's ailing mother, his underground contacts land him over 600 miles away from home in the Blue Ridge Mountains, staring down a hollow-eyed woman with a deal. If Alastor agrees to an indeterminate residency watching over an isolated stretch of the mountain, his mother will be taken care of. At the end of his options, Alastor agrees to ensure his mother's survival.

    When a monster begins stalking the cabin he's been granted, Alastor realizes he didn't understand the ramifications of the pact he made...one he can no longer escape.
