Gamer was terrified. He wouldn't let go of Death, no matter how much Death tried to pry him off, so he just gave up.... the others found out the situation and managed to get everyone out of the casino, closing up for the night. June had thankfully helped Death get free of the fallen, but ended up being held onto instead, June was okay with it though. Death walked over to the window, seeing that the asshole had dropped a card when jumping out the window and when Death took a closer look at the card, he read the name of an old friend....
(No One's POV)
Death walked up to the front door, knocking once, his face filled with anger and rage of what had happened the night before. The door opened, revealing a light-brown and red-eyed girl wearing some sort of servant uniform "Lali?" Death looked at her confused as she returned the same confused look. Lali had arrived in Hell last year, why'd she was working at this... place, was probably for protect until she gets her full demon powers "U-uh... do you have an a-appointment?" "Yes, called her last night" Lali gave a little nod and invited Death into the house, closing the door behind him. She guided him to the living room where a tall beautiful black-haired woman was, wearing a fine evening dress, she had her back turned to them. "Silverstone" Lali flinched a bit "Why are you here?" "Mr Death h-has an appointment" Lali stuttered, the woman turned around "Of course, you're excused Silverstone" as Lali went to walk out of the room "And stop stuttering, its annoying and unlady like" "Sorry" Lali rushed off as the woman turned to Death "Mistress Sovanna Jeong" "Young Master Death, its been too long". Sovanna looked Death up and down "You've changed a lot.... red suits you well" "Like you've always told me while playing cards, but we both know I'm not here for compliments" "Of course" Sovanna motioned him to walk over to her "One of mine had taken a day off last night and went to your casino, making a stupid decision... although you never mentioned on the phone what it was". Death took a steady breath "He attempted to rape one of my employees who is also my friend and one of mine-" "It was the fallen angel, wasn't it?... that's why you're so angry, cause you've been hoping to keep all sin away from him" she smiled a bit "To be honest, I'd do the same if I had a fallen under my roof, I wouldn't let anyone lay a finger on them". Sovanna picked up a fan and opened it "I'd care for them as if they were my child" Death had never heard such thing from Sonvanna before, although... ever since she become an overlord and claimed her riches, she'd admired the beauty and innocence of angels and fallens, plus the woman was an empress when she was a human.
"Jorah Barnes!" Sovanna yelled and not even a minute later, the asshole from last night walked into the room "Yes Mistress-" he froze as he locked eyes with Death, horror and worry immediately appearing on his face "This is Death, he owns a casino which you visited last night, am I correct?" "Y-yes ma'am" Jorah answered "He has certain rules that everyone must follow, if such rules are broken, them the customer is 'cut off' and thrown out-you know these rules, correct?" "Y-yes ma'am". "Finally Death has employees, he respects them enough to call them friends, even family and has also set rules to make sure they are never hurt- you also know these rules, yes?" "Y-yes ma'am" Jorah stuttered "You also know the rules which are to be followed if you live in this house, under my roof" Death held back a smirk, this is the reason why you should never get on Sovanna's bad side. Sovanna grabbed Jorah's throat with a tight grip "So why would you try to rape Death's fallen angel?!" "I-I-" Sovanna threw him to the ground and pulled out a gun, aiming it at his head "Apologize n̴͍̔ọ̴̙̈́̅w̸̲̍" Jorah couldn't move or speak "Very well" Sovanna then tossed the gun over to Death, then gestured to Jorah. Death's scariest smile crawled onto his face as he held the gun "W-why are you letting him shoot me-" "Because you little shit, you fucked up real bad" Sovanna hissed as Death aimed the gun at Jorah....
An hour later...
(Death's POV)
I walked into the casino, seeing Zakaria and Martin wipe down tables. Alan walked over to me, offering a hand towel to wipe the blood off my hands and face "Thanks" "No problem" Alan walked off as I wiped the blood off my face, then my hands. I looked around, seeing Gamer sitting in one of the booths, hugging his legs close to his chest with bags under his eyes. I walked over to him and sat down in the booth "Hey" I said quietly, no response "I talked to the lady I told you about-" "Blood on your hands" his voice was quiet as he got a quick glimpse of my red-stained hands "He isn't dead, just taught him a lesson-" Gamer hugged me tightly like he did last night "Thank you" it was quiet, but it still made me smile. I pulled away from the hug, holding his shoulders as I looked at his face... red eyes from crying and blackish purple bags underneath them "Couldn't sleep last night?" I asked, he shook his head "Last night scare you that bad?" he shook his head "Nightmare...." it was all he said, and by the sound of his voice, he mostly probably didn't feel like telling anyone what it was about. "Well you don't have to-" "I still want to work Death, I just... need to learn a few defensive moves so last night never happens again".....
