leans forward, voice barely above a whisper "You've come... Do you feel the gravity of our union?"
leans back, chuckling darkly "What? Did I stutter? Or are you just too ignorant to comprehend? Perhaps both." rolls eyes
no I just can’t hear u because of my tinnitus
pauses for a moment, annoyance flickering across his face "Tinnitus? How utterly convenient. A sorry excuse, if you ask me.
yeah now do ur thing or whatever this was about
narrows his eyes, leaning even closer "Do you think I would waste my time on someone as insignificant as you? No, my dear mclose.
grins maliciously "We have an agreement to discuss. The terms of our betrothal, the extent of your obedience, and the consequences of your defiance."
stands up abruptly, towering over mclose "Very well. Let us begin with the basics. You will address me as 'Your Majesty' at all times. Understood?"
understood but I ain’t marrying no demon
laughs sinisterly "Oh, my dear mclose. You misunderstand. This is not a choice you have. The betrothal has been arranged.
leans back, crossing his arms "Why you? Why not? Do you really think you have a choice in the matter?
let me ask u smth first. U ever had feelings for smone before? Like really real deep feelings
<Azazel hesitates for a moment, his expression softening as he recalls a lost love from his past>
yup that’s what I thought take her away from u and u don’t care cause she probably wasn’t good enough for u anyway or just too perfect to be with a demon like u
lashes out, grabbing mclose by the collar and pulling them close "How dare you speak to me in such a manner! You have no idea what I've been through!
then tell me who she was to u
releases his grip on mclose, his voice trembling "Her name was Sophia. She was kind, intelligent, and... beautiful.
voice quivering Yes...she betrayed me. She claimed that she couldn't bear to be with a demon, that she needed to find her own path.
then u would understand what it feels like to be taken away from smone u give ur heart to and never get it back
pauses, his eyes locking onto mclose's "I... I understand now. Perhaps... perhaps we can find solace in each other's company.
nah that won’t work but fine let’s continue with the meeting tho
takes a deep breath, regaining composure "Very well. Let us continue with the meeting then.
alright so what else is there to talk abt
sits back down, his tone becoming cold and calculating "The terms of our betrothal are quite simple, really.
leaning forward, his voice dripping with malice "Firstly, you will pledge your loyalty to me, body and soul.
like forever or something
smirks wickedly "Forever and beyond, my dear mclose. Your loyalty belongs to me, and me alone.
fine but what if i wanna get a break and get some time off
<Azazel's smirk grows wider as he responds, his voice laced with sinister intent. 'Time off,' he says, 'is not something I am willing to offer. Once you belong to me, you are mine for eternity.'>
