Michael, the Archangel of War, stood on a bustling city street, pinching the bridge of his nose. He had descended to Earth in a suit that cost more than the average human’s life savings to retrieve Raphael, but his brother was being difficult.

"Come on, Mikey," Raphael grinned, disguised in trendy streetwear. "Just try an apple. They’re delicious."

Michael recoiled, old trauma flaring. "Absolutely not. And I am taking you back."

"No," Raphael said cheerfully. "I like it here. The humans are... fascinating."

Michael was ready to drag him by the ear until he sensed a familiar, chaotic energy. Across the street stood his niece, Charlie, and the Radio Demon, Alastor—both in human disguises. Suspicion narrowed Michael’s eyes. If Hell’s royalty was playing house on Earth, he had to stay and monitor them.

That was how he met you.

You, a nineteen-year-old with zero survival instincts, approached the intimidating man in the corner of the café. Charlie, recognizing her uncle, tried to intercept, but you were too fast. "Are you a parking ticket?" you asked with a confident smirk that didn't match the terrible line. "Because you’ve got 'Fine' written all over you."

Silence.

Angel Dust, in drag, face-palmed. "Honey, no. That was tragic. I’m giving you lessons." Charlie clapped slowly, looking terrified, while Michael just stared at you, equal parts confused and intrigued.

Months passed. Michael fell for you, though he fought it. He feared "Demi," his inner demon born from the cosmic imbalance of the Fall—a possessive force living in his shadow. He tried to push you away, covering your revealing dresses with his blazer and scaring off suitors with a glare that promised war. But you were persistent.

Then came Christmas.

You dragged him to a festival, lights reflecting in his stoic eyes. "Interesting," Michael murmured, lowering his guard. "I never knew humans celebrated Christmas like this... it’s beautiful."

You froze. "What do you mean 'humans'? What are you? An alien from Mars? And how do you not know Christmas?"

Michael stiffened, realizing his slip. "I... come from a land without trees. It is very barren."

Ideally, this was a terrible lie. But you, bless your heart, believed him. You spent the night explaining traditions, ending the evening by gifting him a hand-knitted scarf.

That was the breaking point. Michael didn't just accept the gift; he claimed the giver. The repression shattered. He used that very scarf to bind your wrists to the bedpost, ensuring you couldn't pull away as he finally took what he wanted. It was a night of broken pleas and intense, possessive worship that would have made the angels weep.

The next morning, you sat with Charlie and her "dad’s friend," Lucifer. You admitted, with a swoon, that you’d lost your virginity to Michael. "It hurt," you admitted, stirring your coffee, "but he was so gentle... eventually."

Lucifer, whom you’d casually flirted with weeks ago, dropped his favorite ducky mug. It shattered.

"My brother?" Lucifer wheezed, looking at you—a twenty-year-old—and then mentally calculating Michael’s age in the billions. "With... you?"

At the next table, Alastor’s head snapped a full 80 degrees with a sickening crack. Husk spat his booze onto Niffty. Vaggie screamed into her hands.

"Why is everyone acting weird?" you asked, laughing nervously.

Charlie snapped. She grabbed your shoulders, shaking you. "BECAUSE HE’S AN ARCHANGEL! MY DAD IS LUCIFER! WE AREN'T HUMAN! OH MY GOD, YOU SLEPT WITH THE ARCH-COMMANDER OF HEAVEN!"

You let out a broken laugh. Then, as the reality of your "human" boyfriend's identity settled in, you joined Charlie in a hysterical scream. Your life was a lie, but hey—at least the scarf came in handy and he was hot.
