Seraphina's Pov,
Hell was a dull place at the best of times. Having just come back from earth however made it worse, I needed to chase something. I howled, I wanted to meet with Layla.
"I'm Bored." I huffed as She approached. Layla was the Fox demon the second highest ranked demon in hell, one rank below me, and doomed to serve me forever…
"You're always bored Wolfy," Layla sighed "but you might not be soon, rumour has it that the raven is about to seal a deal with one of the English nobles," Layla stated with a grin,
"Ooo now this could be interesting," I continued,
"As his superiors, I feel we should go take a look," Layla said with a slight mischievous tone, I nodded my head in approval as we departed to where the Raven conducts his business. Both Layla and I in our 'animal' forms, she as an overly fluffy red fox, and myself as the blond alpha female of the most prestigious wolf pack.
Upon our arrival, the Raven changed from his, well raven form to his true demon form.
"Raven, the word on the grapevine's that you have made a deal with one of the most prestigious English Nobles," I stated also changing my true demon form, to be the height of a 13-year-old female human to the lower ranking demon.
"Yes, I have," He said down to me slightly,
"I didn't know about this, I thought Layla would be the one to go off with the prestigious ones," I half stated half questioned, and with that Layla changed into her true form as well standing about a human inch taller than the raven.
"Now Raven," Layla sighed leaning back slightly and idly playing with her soft red tail "You know it is protocol to inform your immediate superior before forming a contract, Correct?"
"Yes I am aware of that," The Bird stated simply,
"Then as your immediate superior, may I inquire as to why you chose not contact me yourself to inform me of this event?"
"Good demons ask permission, bad demons ask forgiveness, I'm asking for forgiveness," He stated before flashing a small smirk, showing off his sharp white teeth.
Knowing this was sure to infuriate Layla I stepped in and gave the raven a quick stinging slap across the face growling savagely, I knew the raven was afraid of me it was how us demons kept control of those of lower status than themselves, I smirked showing off my much more impressive canines. Sensing an opportunity to quench my insatiable boredom, for a while at least, I turned my back on the raven and attempted to calm Layla who was now quietly gekkering to herself.
"Hey, Layla? Know how we've been pretty bored recently?" I asked casually,
"Well do you see anything entertaining to do around here besides wander and hunt souls?" she huffed in reply, "and chase around the bird." She added as a final statement.
"And you know how Birdy here has made a contract and will soon be travelling to the human world?" I questioned, studying my claws,
Layla looked up at me instantly silent and a mischievous smile slowly spread across her face,
"You mean we follow the bird to the human world and have some fun while we're at it?"
"Yes, I do," I stated simply turning back to see an aghast Raven staring at us before flying away as fast as his jet black wings could carry him.
"Well he's in a rush," I said as I watched the raven fly away.
"Should we follow him?..." Layla asked,
"Nah I have some business to attend to, besides he's boring," I said looking back over to Layla, "Find out where he's going and who this Noble is," I ordered,
"You got it, Have fun with the spider," Layla said with a small smirk,
"What are you talking about," I asked, confused, there's no way in hell she would know about that.
"Nothing…" Layla smiled in her mischievous knowing way,
"Whatever," I replied, rolling my eyes.
I walked towards the spider's web. "Spidey?" I called my tail wagging happily behind me, "Babe?," I called again,
"Seraphina?" came the reply, changing into his own demon form the spider jumped down from his web, landing with ease flashing me a hungry smile.
