Chapter Text
Sex demons rarely get a say in their choice of partner. Very often, their target (victim? thrall?) would have been assigned to them based on an archaic set of rules that have been set in place since the dawn of time itself.
There have been occasions in the past when those rules may be bent, allowing for some leeway regarding the seduction itself. For instance, a sex demon may independently choose to alter their method, or even their reason for the seduction, based on what they think would more quickly help them reach their ultimate goal: The Fall of the Human Soul.
At the same time, some rules have most certainly been broken. One of the best-known rules is that sex demons are not allowed to fall in love with their targets. And yet, that has indeed happened on a number of occasions – although the end result is rarely ever a happy one. Entire civilizations have ended up destroyed as the result of a love affair between a demon and human, and their tales serve as a warning for other sex demons that come after them.
Despite all that, there is one singular rule that is absolute. You cannot bend it, and it can never be broken. And that rule is: You Must Always Obey Your Boss.
“That’s him?” Joe asked incredulously, staring straight at his latest target.
“Is there a problem?” Andy replied, eyebrow raised.
“No, no!” Joe raised his hands defensively. “It’s just that … a priest? Really, Andy? Isn’t that a little … stereotypical?”
She rolled her eyes upwards. “I don’t come up with the assignments, Joe. But I can tell you this: that priest is going to play a big role in The Plan.”
“Really?” Joe scoffed. He turned back towards the priest.
The man was now sweeping the floor of the little church, humming a tune to himself. The dimensional veil prevented him from sensing the two sex demons watching him with interest.
“Yes, really,” Andy said. “And Joe?”
“Yes, Boss.”
“Whatever you do? Don’t. Mess. This. Up.”
“ … yes, Boss.”
