    Summary

    Stella marches over to him, stopping about a foot away. She grabs his wrist and pulls his hand up, pressing it to her breast. His fingers stiffen against the warmth of her feathers. Grinning at him, she squeezes her talons more tightly around his arm.

    “If you care for me at all,” she says, “you will get over yourself and fuck me. And when I eventually pop out an egg, I will be more than happy to stay far away from you and your hideous little ass.”

    Stolas swallows around nothing, body alight with shame. As much as he has no choice in this, neither does Stella. It's what their families expect.

    “Okay,” he agrees.

     

    Or:

     

    Stolas' experience of sex has always been transactional. After Sinsmas, he struggles to find a balance in his relationship with Blitzø and closes the gap the only way he knows how.

    Summary

    The Sinful Singing Games is a wonderful show where every lowly Hellborn can compete against each other in bloodsport and song for a chance at an Impossible Wish! Down on your luck? Looking for a change by any means necessary? Apply now for your benefit - or spectacular death - and all of Hell’s amusement!

    Blitzø is seeking an Asmodean Crystal to finally turn all of IMP’s lives around for the better, and puts his own neck on the line to do so with the confidence of a man who never loses. Stolas breaks the mold by competing as demon royalty seeking his own Impossible Wish to be free of his gilded cage. Yet he finds that from High Society to his life in The Garden, a cage is still just a cage.

    When they find each other again after over two decades apart, both men realize they both got more than they bargained for when signing up. For better and for worse.

    Or: Helluva Boss with a little bit of Alien Stage, a little bit of Hunger Games and a lot of Stolitz.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of his banishment and the loss of almost everything he holds dear, Stolas struggles to find a way to silence the voices in his head that are determined to make sure he never, ever forgets how profoundly he has failed.


    The pain rang through his brain like a clarion call. He gasped and went perfectly still, staring down at his hands, at the blood black as motor oil spilling out of him, dripping onto the cutting board and gathering in a shimmering pool. The pain spread through his body like a splash of ink in a glass of water, stark at first but diffusing quickly, disappearing but leaving every drop changed.

    And in his head, blessed, ringing silence.

    No thoughts, no words, just the fading memory of pain as bright and sharp as a lightning strike, already gone by the time the rumble of thunder came rolling through the air.

    Summary

    December 31st 2001

    New Year’s Resolutions:
    1. STOP SMOKING!
    2. Get a better job so no longer have to dread social functions.
    3. Enter into nice respectable relationship with nice respectable man; see above.
    4. Develop interesting hobby as talking point in the event of failure on points 2 and 3 – anything to avoid being introduced as Edwin Payne who had a nervous breakdown after two terms at Cambridge, holds a pissant little job at a publishing house of no significance or renown and couldn’t catch a man with both hands and a bear trap. Will be 32 years old this year, for heaven’s sake. Feel strongly that now is the moment to take charge of my life. At the stroke of midnight tonight, the year 2002 shall begin, and I shall be a new and improved Edwin Payne.
