Kagome rolled over, her eyes still closed. Feeling an arm on her waist, pulling her in closer to a bare chest. She wanted to peek out from her eyelashes, but when another arm pulled a silk sheet up and over her bare shoulders, she found that she didn't care who it was in her bed. Or...more whose bed she was in. No, no, she was quite content. Well, sort of. Her head was killing her! And her body was kind of sore. Not sure what exactly she got into last night, she tried to recall what happened after her heavy night of drinking and the long lines of mindfuckery she snorted. 'What happened...what was it? I remember someone holding me.' She could just die. It was bad enough that the last time she blanked on a long night of partying, she woke up dead, now in Hell, she was doing the same shit. 'I think I slept with Angel. No...Angel's gay. Angel's gay? Isn't he? I'm sure of it... or not. Maybe?'

She finally forced her eyes open, regretting it nearly immediately as her head began spinning. "What the hell did I take yesterday..." she tried to push herself up, but the arms around her tightened. "Hm?" Glancing up, her eyes widened. Suddenly, last night came back to her in rapid flashes of memories and a flurry of colors. 'Fucking shit! Fuck, fuck, fuck! I slept with Angel AND some rando!?' Closing her eyes, Kagome untangled herself from the arms holding her and sat up. The sheet pooled in and around her lap. Bringing her hands up to her face, elongated black nails teased her bangs before she pushed them up and back into her long and wild mane, massaging the base of her horns as she fought off a headache. Feeling a hand run along her tail, she turned and faced the demon lying next to her. Angel was out cold on his other side, curled into his arms.

"What's going on in that mind of yours, Kas."

'Kas...' she smiled seductively. Turning onto her side, her hair tickling his bare chest. Lavender skin beneath her crimson dusted fingers, her eyes sparkled as his muscles contracted at her feathery touches. "Nothing is on my mind...although, I am a bit curious about who you are...care to tell me your name?"

Sharp teeth appeared behind a cruel grin. "The name's Valentino."

"Damn it. It's too fucking early to be awake already!" Angel rolled over and pulled a pillow over his head, curling up into the sheet at his waist.

Kagome rolled her eyes. Crawling out of Valentino's reach, beneath the sheets, and over to Angel. She curled up beside him as he reached over and pulled her into his chest. For a moment, she was worried she'd fucked up with her friend. The look in his eyes, however. She saw remorse, not caused by her actions but directed towards her because of his actions. Understanding the situation would take a while, but what she could process at that moment... Angel hadn't meant for last night to happen. Hugging him tightly, she rested her head on the fluff of his bare chest, ignoring Valentino as the much taller demon stood up and began readying himself for the day. Whatever he did, he gave off pimp vibes. The coat specifically.

"Angel Cakes, you have a shift tonight on stage, don't be late, Sweetheart."

"Right, boss."

'...' Kagome was quiet for a moment as something clicked in her head. 'Fuuuuuuck...he's Angel's boss!?' She ducked her head a bit and sighed, 'I mean, I guess it could be worse. It's not like he's...my...boss. Wait, he's my boss too!'

"Kas, I assume you'll be picking up shifts around the same schedule as Angel here?"

She nodded her head, not trusting her voice. Her tail whipped violently around from beneath the sheet. The erratic movement caused her boss to laugh under his breath. This was not an ideal situation. Meeting the owner of the place where she worked, by waking up naked in his arms in his bed...what sordid cliché romance novel did she drink her way into.

No. She was a demon. She was a fucking succubus! Sleeping with her boss, her friend, or anyone else for that matter. It was her prerogative! Sitting up, she noticed how Angel's eyes followed her as she stood from the bed and moved to gather her clothes. Not glancing at Valentino as she dressed in front of him. Growing bolder and more brazen by every passing second, her tail slipped through the sleeve of her top, lifting it to her as she pulled it over her horns and head.

Once dressed, she moved next to Valentino, leaned over to look at his mirror, running her fingers through her hair a few times; she smiled. "I'll show up if I feel like it." She paused as hazy red energy began circling her, not even a foot from the door. Not one to waste her time drawing up her shields, she pulled on her energy. Not disappointed, she turned around and faced an enraged Valentino. "Did I say something wrong, boss?"

"Sugar, you work for me, remember? You do as I say, and I'll be the daddy you never had. Don't...well... let's just say you don't want to find out what happens when you don't do as I say."

"Suddenly, I find I'm not interested in working for you. Oh, but the sex was good. I'll call you if I need a Valentino fix."

Angel quickly dressed as he tried to move in between Val and Kagome. As he stepped in front of Val, he placed two hands on their boss's chest. "Val, she doesn't mean anything by it, I'm sure."

Kagome laughed, "Angel...why are you so afraid of him? Do you think he can hurt me?" Perhaps he could. Perhaps... if she wasn't warded by the purification energy tied to her soul. Hell or not, there wasn't a demon dead or alive that could hurt her.

"Kas, come on. We should go." Angel moved to take hold of Kagome, but Valentino knocked him aside before any of his hands could reach her. "Ack! K-Kas!" Looking up, his eyes widened.

Valentino's hand was pressed into an angry-looking shield of energy. A violent spark of energy raged out around his gloved fingers until it flared dangerously outward and forced the Moth demon to stumble back. Standing, Angel rubbed his swelling cheek. Valentino was glaring down at Kagome, who was staring back in a way that made her look even more dangerous than Angel had ever seen Val look.

"What the fuck is that!?"

Kagome reached her hand out to Angel. "We'll see you around, Val, baby." Watching Valentino carefully, she waited as the spider demon moved closer to her. Dropping her shields, she let him inside her wards and brought a hand to where his rested on his cheek.

Whatever was going on in Angel's head, he'd kept it to himself. Since they left the studio, neither one had said a word. It was terrifying. Moving through the crowded streets, Kagome finally stopped.

"...are you okay?"

Angel looked up and frowned, "What? Me? I'm fine. I mean, I sure as Hell wasn't expecting you to be able to protect yourself from Val. Not many can do that." Looking at a wall of TVs, he watched a familiar face flash across the screen. "He has a way of finding one's weakness and dangling right before your eyes. Sometimes, teasing you with a touch, but it's almost always just out of reach. You decided to make an enemy after one of the worst overlords in Hell."

"He's nothing." Kagome followed Angel's eyes. "There are worse demons, Angel. Demons that aren't made of flesh and blood...demons that don't reside here in Hell. Demons like that, they cause the most harm." Smiling, she slipped her hand in his, "let's go find a place to stay!"

Not even five minutes had gone by, and a limo was pulling up next to Kagome and Angel.

"The fuck?"

"You know them?" Kagome looked curiously at the pink limo. It was horribly out of place on the streets of Hell.

"Yeah, I know them. A couple of broads who offered me a place to stay last week just before I ran into you. They said we'd be in touch; I just didn't believe them."

The door opened, a young girl with rosy cheeks, light blonde hair, and a pale complexion stepped out of the vehicle. "Hello! I'm Charlie! Are you a friend of Angel's!?"

"As a matter of fact," Angel cut in, "she is."

"Thaaaats great! We came to pick you up, and if your friend here is interested, perhaps she too would like to join you in your rehabilitation?"

"...rehabilitation?" Kagome looked at Angel, watching him blush in embarrassment before nervously glancing left and right down the streets. Clearing her throat, Kagome turned to the blonde, "Charlie, was it?" she leaned in, purring slightly into the girl's ear, "how about we take this into the car?"

Cheeks burning, Charlie leaned back, and a hand shot out from the limo before pulling her back inside. "P-please, come inside! Um, Vaggie will explain to you the details of the hotel."

Kagome raised her hand, "I don't care. I'll be going with Angel no matter where he's going. Rehabilitation, or the International Gangbangers Convention, if I'm with Angel, I trust that everything will be okay."

"Awe, Sugar Tits, I didn't know you felt so strongly." He nudged her cheek with his. "I'll make sure to take good care of you, Kas."

"This isn't some shelter for random demons off the street," Vaggie snapped, "it's a serious attempt at rehabilitating demons and sending them to Heaven. If you're staying at the hotel, you'll be expected to follow the same rules as Angel. Is that clear?"

"Like butter,"

"Good," Vaggie sighed, then paused as she replayed Kagome's words in her head. "Wait, what?"

"I will participate in your "study," but I am a Succubus...and I do have needs." Kagome crossed her leg over the other; arms crossed across her chest as she leveled Charlie and Vaggie with a look of bother, preparing for a long drive of negotiations. "While I don't particularly care where I get my pleasure from, I do not intend to drown in the feeling of wanton desire. Unchecked need is no joke."

Vaggie glanced at Charlie, who looked to be considering her words. "We'll talk...more later." Charlie finally said, unsure what to add or how to curb the girl's sexual desire. Still, she was determined to find a way to suppress it and guide her on the path of rehabilitation.

Kagome shook her head but didn't argue. She'd said it before. She was going with Angel, no and's, if's, or but's. Her tail wrapped tightly around her wrist as a ponytail would. Turning her attention out the window, Kagome watched as the hellhole she now resided in passed her by. Silently, she wondered for a moment what exactly was this hotel going to be like.
