Summary
Vincent’s problem was always the same: he wants.
He wants, he wants, he wants. And no amount of getting or receiving will ever change that fact, will ever close the cavern inside of him that always wants more. Getting is secondary, underwhelming in comparison to the thrill of wanting. Of chasing. When he found something he wanted, he pursued it single-mindedly. He made a plan, he pulled his strings, he put every piece of the puzzle into place. That was when he was on top of the world. Receiving his prize was little more than a participation trophy, and by the time he got it he had usually already found another want. Want, want, want.
Sometimes, at night, he wondered if his luck would run out, and when. What happened when he met someone he couldn’t charm or bully into giving him what he wanted? Who was immune to his silver tongue, his clever quips, his flashy smile or a flirtatious bat of his mismatched eyes? What happened when he took a risk that didn’t pay off?
When Vincent takes a spring break trip to New Orleans to celebrate his upcoming college graduation, he may just find the answer to that question where he least expects it.
And it will alter the course of his life forever.

Summary
Throughout his life and afterlife Alastor has come to realize that he is rather slow when it comes to matters of the heart. In life, he knew not what being in love meant. And in death, it took him far too long to realize when he’d finally stumbled into that elusive, unknown affliction of the heart. His soul was traded for love without him even having fully realized it. It is only after things come to a head in a tangled mess between himself, the Queen of Hell, her King, and that old pal of his that he can choose for himself what to do with this feeling.
And apparently, that choice is to somehow manage to simultaneously maintain relations with two difficult to handle men despite having a grand total of zero relationship experience prior to this point.
He never claimed that his choice had to be a good one…
It seemed that he does not fall into love easy. But once he does… the feeling was guarded jealously in his chest.

Summary
When Alastor died, all he ever wanted was to be free and be entertained. Death was forever, and forever was long and boring. And that boredom had become one thing he truly feared now.
But, as the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for.
Little did he know that one day a child with the smile of pure sunshine was going to be at his door step and somehow drag him into a deeper world of Hell's politics. Not just the battles of Overlords of Pentagram City, but the games played behind the curtains of Hell's seven rings.
One thing is sure though, he was going to be thoroughly entertained.
