Chapter Text
“Mammon we should take the are wins before they notice we not at home” you whisper in his ear, as he looks at his card.
“Last one, then we bail. Alright babe”
“One more, that it okay!” he grabs your face, and quickly give you a kiss on the cheek and return his attention to game. “Good luck kiss” your heart fluttered when you heard that, its kind a lessens your worries for sneaking out late.
He won, and instantly grab all his winning and put them in his bag. Stood up, thanks the other players and grab your hand and start heading to the exit.
“Just keep moving” he whisper to your ear, you start walking quicker “slow down, they’ll notice us. Just keep heading straight to the exit and don’t look back” he sounds more serious.
As you two are at the exit, a demon yell “Stop those two, they cheated!”
Mammon places a hand on your waist, and start sprinting, when suddenly you felt something wrap around your neck and pull you away from Mammon grasps.
He turns around, his eyes widen and mouth hanged open to what he sees. You hoisted 2ft off the ground by a demon’s tail wrap around your neck.
“Leave and this human dies!” as he said it, his tail tightens.
Mammon tosses his bag with the chips at the demon; he just shook his head. “Nope not good enough, you own us more than~” the demon screams in pain.
You were biting hard on his tail, to the point that you draw blood.
He immediately thrown you to a poker table, you felt a bone break.
All you can hear was Mammon calling your name before you pass out.

“He’s an asshole! Putting poor y/n in this state. I don’t see why y/n choice him even though I’m here”
“Asmo keep it down, you’re going to wake y/n, with your whining” and yet Asmo and Belphie still argue, causing you to wake up.
You open your eyes to see Asmo and Belphie are at each side of the bed, and Satan and Beel sitting in the couch of Mammon’s room.
“Ugh…. What happen? How did I get here, and where’s ….? ow!” you felt something on your arm, so slowly lifted it up and see that is in a cast.
“Be careful, you can’t move the cast around” Satan walks over to you grab hold and gently place your arm down on your chest.
You try to sit up but it hard with you feeling pain all over your body, Asmo sees it and helps you up and Belphie place more pillows so you can lean on them.
“How? Did I get here” you ask with a tired tone in your voice, then Beel stood up and walk over to the bed where Belphie is sitting.
“Me and Lucifer when out looking for you two, then we heard that you were at a casino that Mammon couldn’t stop talking about. So, we went there and saw you pass out and Mammon attack a demon. Lucifer put a stop to it and you the rest”
“Where is he?” you ask, only met with the brothers looking at each other, but it was Asmo who spoke.
“His with Lucifer in his study getting the worst scolding of his life, or their already done and Mammon is already Strang up at the stair well.”
“Why are I being scolded right now!” you ask them, all they did was giggle and Beel pat you on the head.
“y/n your too nice for Mammon, he deserves it for put you endanger in the first places and I don’t think can’t be angry at you when you are injured like this” Belphie answer you.
All you can do is fiddle around with your cast as the brothers talk about themselves, knowing fully well that Mammon doesn’t his punishment.
Further into the night, all the brothers went back their respected room, all expect Beel who slept on the couch in Mammon’s room.
Once you know that Beel is fully asleep, you slowly got out off bed and walk out the room with a pillow and blanket on hand.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
“Mammon are you awake, baby” you call him, in a loud whisper to not wake the others.
You’re at the bottom part of the stair well, look up to a Strang up Mammon who seem to be asleep. Once he didn’t respond, you start setting the pillow and blanket, and lay on the floor right below Mammon.
“I so sorry Mammon” you mutter under you’re breathe as you look up before turning to your side and start drifted off to sleep.
However, once you are fully asleep, Mammon opened up his eyes and look down at you, watch you sleep with worry and regret on his mind as he stares at your arm cast.
“How could I be this useless, I supposed to keep ya protected and save” he talks to himself, disappointed at himself.
In his mind he hated that he didn’t do anything to the demon who attack you, sure he got a punch or two at him, but it was Lucifer and Beel who came in and save you and him from the demon.
He doesn’t care about Lucifer’s punishment; all he cares about you and how he can be a demon that you can rely on and proud to be with.
He hates that Beel was stronger than him, or how Satan and Asmo can be scary when their angry, or how Levi can summon Lotan when he needs it, or how Belphie is dangerous with what happen in the past with you. Even though he’s Second eldest of the brothers he felt like he doesn’t deserve it or you.
Just think about his young brother able to save you and not him, made him snarl and irritated.
“I make it up to y/n, I swear and if the last thing I do!” after saying that, he starts falling asleep.
As he sleeps, something within him slowly reawakens, something primal.
