This was easy, too easy, at least once he'd gotten into the hang of it. Crossing lust off was easy enough, gutting them for their advances had been easier. Fun even when he considered how much delight Zahrya would take when Alastor replayed his memories for him. How the bitter witch died gargling on their own blood, knees bent and prepared for subjugation that would never come. The frenzied masses laughed as though the blood that spilled across their feet was little more than a performance art, in every corner of the room, in every chamber of the building, debauchery and violence took hold.
"Just a little more." Alastor promised, his tone was low and methodical, the drawl of a demon who was hitting his stride. So many years he'd been Vivianne's partner and friend, content with his violence so long as it didn't blowback on the coven. A fair trade for the position she lent him, but for months now he'd been a father and a maid, a builder and a bed companion. This felt correct. Zahrya was right and Alastor was wrong to deny his nature.
He poured the bottle down the agape throat of a lush he'd been feeding for over an hour. A glutton and epitome of self-indulgence, his face swollen and eyes bloodshot as the alcohol, drugs, and food worked against him. "Almost done." The man struggled beneath him but the demon's face shifted with mottled skin as it showed the monster beneath the charming mask. Alastor continued to pour even as the man choked on his own drink, spat up and turned purple before he at last stopped writhing. The demon stood, the second offering to the Inferno made.
