Angels Love Demons
This story takes place in the esteemed Heaven and Hell, following Ashton Caliel (age 8-23) the caring, handsome King of Heaven, in his journey from only a prince to the leader of his vast kingdom. At the age of 8, the narrator shows the final moments before Ashton's princely training truly begins, bringing any childhood experiences to a halt. After a brief brush with an icy death, he spends his final free moments in front of the family fireplace.
We skip time to the age of 18, Ashton training with his personal guard and close friend Matt (28). This was the day his father and current king was to sign another peace treaty with the King of Hell. Out of curiosity he took a peak at the demon king and came to find Damien Umbra (23-28) sultry, charismatic and flirty king of Hell. They did not officially meet at this time despite locking eyes as the demon laid an ominous future on the angel king. Very soon the prince would take the throne.
After a second encounter with the demon king that resulted in heavy flirting, much to the new kings surprise, they had not met again for weeks. A single gift led the king to make a secret visit to Hell to interrogate the other king.
During this visit Damien plays off his interest in the angel as only a fun game. This is to go on for years with only brief visits and gifts, causing the angel king to slowly fall for Damien in the process. Damien visits Ashton in the night, leaving a small gift for the angel to wake up to. Ashton is to accept this gift, but the council of angels in heaven give him trouble when they are to find out about this secret relationship.

Chapter: Chapter 9Nearly a week after the letter had been sent off, The council of Angels had gotten word of Ashton's secret lover and had been investigating into the matter. It was quite normal for the Council of ten to be involved in all matters pertaining to the thrown, and when the current king never consulted them, plans were already being made to replace him if deemed necessary. Matt was the first to catch wind of the current predicament."Ash you have to understand that this relationship would be a mistake. That demon would have full control and you'd be tossed aside!" His voice barely louder than a whisper."Matt you're exaggerating." The king dismissed. "You and I both know that's not how it works. The council is outdated and would be downright incompetent to challenge the thrown." Tossing the paper in his hands aside, he rose to his feet, nearly towering over his friend. Ashton wouldn't admit to his subordinate, but he'd already thought the situation over. If the council were

Chapter: Chapter 8 First ReplyYears had spun past, along with countless gifts and letters. The Council of Angels was growing ever so suspicious of Ashton's constant lack of a bride. He had turned down many suitors, refusing to marry one he did not love, and refusing to admit that he'd fallen deeply in love with the one who'd written to him. At this time even Matt had grown suspicious of the letters that now piled in a dresser in the king's room, but he never questioned them being kept considering Ash never left the castle. Behind the king's back, he decided to contact a minor god of love. While it took ages for a reply due to the busy nature of the god, the reply was less than exciting. The previous suspicions now turned to fear and worry. Were these letters really coming from the King of Hell? It couldn't be true, but the god of love was never wrong and that was what Matt feared most. It was believed that a magical book contained every person in existence, pairing th

Chapter: Chapter 7 Growing PainsThe silence of the castle was comfortable. Ashton had grown into his position quickly, despite many challenges along the way. He had continued his training with Matt, this time more rigorously now that he had a throne to protect. "Hey Matt. Why did you never marry?" The king asked in-between thrown punches. The other male chuckled in amusement. "I never wanted to. Besides, raising you took up all my time. Wasn't like your father was going to do it so someone had to step up." Ashton smiled gently."Oh come on you never saw anyone that caught your eye?""Of course I did, but sometimes it's better to ignore any urges that could put your duties at risk."The younger angel pouted, but understood what he had meant. There were duties that were to be held above all others, even over those you loved and cherished. A part of him wondered if Matt had done this in the past, choosing his position over a loved one. His thoughts were cut off by a punch that grazed his ear. "Hey focu

Chapter: Chapter 6 DamienDamien's POVHow could he be so foolish? Inviting an angel to Hell was not only dangerous, but unheard of. When the angel king had stepped into the castle, the wave of pure energy was almost nauseating. However he couldn't help but admit that he enjoyed it. After the male had left, Damien deeply regretted his choice in words. Upon first seeing Ashton, he was mesmerized by the angel's beauty. He had been told by various guards that Heaven's heir was a sight to behold, but he wasn't expecting this. With an annoyed grunt, Damien collapsed on his plush bed. Every moment that passed, he continued to curse himself for attempting to maintain his reputation. It wasn't his original intentions to continue the act, but he could feel prying eyes on him during their most recent encounter. While it was true that he regularly had new lovers, refusing to take one in permanently

Chapter: Chapter 5 Secret TripThe light cooing of the owls filled the starry sky, few shadows following behind the king as he snuck his way out of heaven. Nobody was to know of his little escapade to hell, not even his closest advisors. He didn't know what he was to expect upon exiting the golden gates that he'd known all his life.Having slipped on a plain black hoodie and jeans, he'd hoped he wouldn't stand out once he reached the pits. Everyone had explained for years that it was a terrifying and depressing existence to live in. Not a soul ever dared to enter without reason. It was believed that demons were hateful creatures, relishing off the agony of others. He didn't believe this to be true, but it didn't cease the fear that bubbled in his chest.The path from Heaven to Hell was simple to cross despite its very gloomy and arid atmosphere. The split between the apposing realms was short, but noticeable. Dark skies of onyx stretched to every horizon. Some called it the Void, others believed it

Chapter: Chapter 4 The First GiftWeeks had gone by since the treaty was signed and heaven was running its normal routine. All except for Ashton, who was struggling to memorize every document that the library had to offer. He had all but forgotten about the demon king after constant reminders of the struggle that man would cause. There was more than enough time to settle down with any woman the council would give him. Not that he wanted one, but despite his newfound position, he had little rule over decisions such as procreation. The castle library was littered with books and secrets galore. It was known all throughout the realm as the only remnants of what had come before the first archon war. The original peace treaty still lay in the position it had millenniums beforehand, untouched by visitors. Dusty pages flipped silently. Words flew threw his mind at inhuman spe
