Escape From Hell

"Hey Ruby, you're coming with me! Just give up. You're mine. It is time to end this silly game."

Oh god, oh god, oh god!! She was going back to hell wasn't she? Obviously, he wouldn't use his full strength in front of everyone...or would he? He'd done so last time and....

"NO GET AWAY FROM ME!!!" She screamed, looking around helplessly, "SECURITY, HELP!" She screamed.

Just then, Karen and Vivian had stepped out of the dressing room as the guy started pulling on her arm.

"Ruby, is this guy bothering you?"

Humans were so stupid. Had she not been screaming her head off. "Yes, i-its another stalker!!" She tugged her arm trying to get him to let go of her

"You have got to be fucking with me, don't play games Rubi...anna."

It was him, only Beherit knew her full name.

"God, what is wrong with these guys?" Karen scoffed and Ruby instantly knew it was not a form of a compliment towards her, it was meant to insult her. If only she knew...

The security guard had the guy locked up mainly because he was screaming like a maniac, that he was sent from Satan to rescue his little sex slave. Another form of proof that it was Beherit. No normal mortal would know of such things.

She was safe.
~~~

Karen walked down the hall and back towards the main room where Andrew wait.

"Sorry for the wait. Ruby keeps getting these weird stalkers to come after her. I wouldn't doubt if they were all old boyfriends who she is paying to make her look more popular than she really is. Anyways, I'm ready to go!"

The blonde flashed Andrew a smile, "By the way, how did you like the show?" And instantly, she latched onto his arm, showing her obvious needy ways quite quickly.
 
Andrew heard a commotion back stage and got up, moving to hear better. He heard the guy using some of the things he had told him. He chuckled to himself. The idiot had used every detail. He had claimed to be a demon from Hell. He heard the guy being taken away and he want to sit again. Eventually Karen joined him and he smiled at her. He stood to greet her when she got close.

He laughed a little and nodded at Karen's comment. It seemed she didn't like Ruby. He would have to remember that in the future. She asked how he liked the show and was suddenly on his arm. He leaned in closer to her and smiled. "I think you were by far the best. I guess that is why they had you first. Start of the show great and everyone will be in such a great mood that they won't notice the bad parts of the rest of the show."

They walked outside and back to his car. He opened her door, letting her in. Soon they were ready to go. They got on the road and he started driving back toward Karen's place. As they went he described in detail what he had liked about her performance. Not in a sexual way, but in a way that showed he had really been paying attention. He admired her skill. He also explained what he didn't like about some of the others. Ruby in particular. He really hit that one with negativity. They arrived back at Karens place and he pulled up in front. He turned and smiled at her. "Well, here we are. I want to thank you for such a great evening."
 
Karen was grinning like a cheshire cat. Man, she thought that when Ruby had started working at the club, everyone would forget about her. And now, she had the perfect man who shared her dislike of Ruby which was perfect! He had described everything in perfect detail that he liked about her performance and not in the slightest bit sexual.

No, 'I liked the way you moved your ass' or anything derogatory like that.

It was nice, for a change.

And then he went to in depth detail about what he disliked about Rubies performance, said he didn't get off on watching angels dance in a sexual way and that the idea was stupid because Angels were not in the slightest bit naughty.

Frankly, Karen had to agree. It was a stupid idea.
 
Andrew was happy that Karen seemed happy. They arrived at her place and he got out. He opened her door for her yet again and then walked her to her doo. All his hard work was finally paying off. He knew he had much more to do still, but that would all be quite enjoyable. At least in human form it would be very enjoyable. He was looking forward to the next days, weeks, or even months until he got his perfect opportunity. He could be very patient. Being in human form increased his patience. He was not usually that patient in his demon form. That had been shown by his rushing to catch Ruby eariler. Patience was needed for this plan, and he could handle it. He would not fail again. Next time he got near Ruby she would not escape.

At Karen's door he stopped and smiled at her. Their eyes met. As Andrew he felt a connection to her. They had spent a great evening together. He let her know that. "Thank you for letting me take you out tonight Karen. I had a very nice time. You are a great girl." He reached out and took hold of her hand loosely. The one thing he was really unsure about was what sort of kiss she would like, if any. His eyes drifted to her lips and he leaned in slowly. He would give her just a quick, soft kiss unless she changed it.
 
Karen was indeed happy. In her mind, Andrew was the perfect guy. He was totally into her, or at least his actions showed that he was into her. After all, what guy held the door open for girls anymore, especially girls who worked as strippers.

He walked her to the door and she purposely made sure she couldn't find her key, even though she knew exactly where in her purse she put it. She wanted that kiss, and by god she'd get it! Things seemed to go as Karen wanted because within moments he was leaning forward to give her a kiss after saying some sweet words that normally would've been a turn off for Karen, except coming from him she liked them very much!

It was a quick kiss and didn't seem to be enough. She pressed her lips against his, a bit longer. After all, she may have wanted respect and blah, blah, blah but she was not a silly little virgin.
 
Andrew felt her push back against him and lengthen the kiss. He did the same. He made it a good kiss, a proper kiss. He fully enjoyed it, it felt great. It was also another great sign. He couldn't be happier with how things were going so far. When the kiss ended he decided to end their evening with that. He would not get in bed with her right away. It would leave her possibly wanting more, and make sure she understood that he didn't just want to be with her now that he knew she was a stripper. There were also a number of other small reasons why he would end things for the evening.

He looked into Karen's eyes and he smiled. "That was great. Well, I should go. I hope you have a very nice night. Maybe I'll see you at the coffee shop again. If not, I'll call you. Good night Karen." He turned and slowly walked down the walkway toward his car. Part of the way there he turned to look back at her and smile. He continued until he reached his car. He got in and sat there. He didn't drive off right away. He just thought about how well it was all going and enjoyed the moment. It was his best plan yet.
 
Karen watched, feeling slightly forlorned that she hadn't gotten a much better reaction. Though she felt slightly happy that he was not the type to just jump her because he knew she was a stripper, she just...felt a sort of ...connection with him. Then again, perhaps it was a good thing that things hadn't gone as fast as she wanted them to go.

"Good night..." she whispered, still standing there. A blush formed on her face as he turned back and smiled at her. Yes, it was a very good thing. She didn't want to rush things and screw everything up. That would've been terrible. No, no going slow was okay, for now. At least, she hoped it'd be a okay. She was a stripper after all and strippers had high sex drives.

Karen stepped back into her apartment, got dressed into something more comfortable and slowly drifted to sleep.

~~

Ruby settled into her room in her apartment with Vivian. He was gone, he was really gone. It was kind of shocking and...surely he'd be ale to break through the human jail cells...right? Though knowing Beherit, he'd make it seem like it had taken him forever. No, she was safe for now.

"Man, girl..I didn't know so many guys would like you in such a short time." Vivian said as Ruby grabbed herself a glass of water.

"Yes, weird. Is it not?" Ruby murmured.

That night however, when she went to bed; she had visions of being chained once more. Deep, evil laughter though she couldn't place who the laughter belonged to.

It led her to believe that if Beherit was not coming after her, Lucifer would send another one of his well trained men.
 
After a while of just sitting there Andrew drove off back to his place. He arrived home late in the evening and went to bed right away. He really missed being able to stay awake for long periods of time as a demon. He missed a lot about being a demon. He fell asleep very quickly. His first dream of the night was a very human dream of himself as Andrew spending time with Karen. It was a very nice scene for a human. It was not what Beherit would call a good dream though.

His second dream was not really a dream. Satan appeared before Beherit in his normal form and demanded an explaination as to why Ruby was taking longer than normal to capture. He was told that without a good excuse more demons would be sent after Ruby and he would be demoted, or even banished from hell. Beherit quickly explained his plan to the devil. He was given a specific time limit. If he went over that limit he would be demoted. If he didn't reach his second deadline he would be punished. If he failed to reach his third deadline he would be banished or killed. He was also told that Satan no longer wanted Ruby, even for punishment. Unless it was easy to capture her and return her to Hell, she should simply be destroyed. It would make Beherit's job easier if his plan for capture failed.

He woke in the morning considering his options. He decided to stick with his plan. Since most of the other agents took at least a month to capture a run away, and since Ruby seemed stronger than expected, he had a month. He figured he would get his chance long before that time was up. He could also kill her. If his time was almost up he could set a trap in the strip club before she arrived one evening and destroy her with ease. She didn't realise it, but her best option for survival was to be captured by him. It was her only option for survival.
 
Startled by her dream, Ruby found it hard to sleep through the rest of the night. Instead, she lay on her bed wandering what her next move would be. It was odd, Beherit had not tried once more to capture her. It was as though he'd disappeared off the face of the Earth.

She could no longer sense him, though she was uncertain of where those powers had harbored to begin with. "Where are you Beherit?" She whispered to herself in thought. It worried her because she still felt like she should be on edge, but found no reason to be..

~~

The next evening at the strip club, Karen practically skipped into the dressing room with a smile on her face. She had overslept, so she hadn't actually been to the coffee shop. She was still on cloud nine that night though.

When Vivian and Ruby looked at her, Vivian just grinned. "Did someone get laid last night?" She smirked at Karen, who only glared at Vivian.

"NO! I did not." She snapped at Vivian. "God, Andrew is such a nice respectable man..."

"Then, whats he doing with you?" Vivian teased and got another killer death glare, "Relax, I'm just kidding." Meanwhile, Ruby found it odd how humans interacted with one another. She did not see the humour in Vivian's teasing but she kept quiet because it appeared as though Karen still disliked her due to her overwhelming popularity and..'stalkers'.
 
Andrew was up at a decent hour and fully prepared for the day ahead of him. He was at the coffee shop at the usual time, in case Karen arrived there as well. He wanted to see her again and make sure things continued to go smoothly. She didn't show up, but it didn't bother him. He was happy and confident in his plan and his abilities. He spent the day preparing more things for Karen. He purchased gifts for different stages and he purchased certain things he felt he might need. He got his apartment presentable and set up in a way she might like.

That evening when it came closer to the time for Karen to be working he sent her a text message. It took him a minute to figure out how to do it with his phone, but he understood it eventually. His message was a long one, it read:

Hey, I had a wonderful time last night. Sorry I didn't talk to you earlier today, I've been busy. I just wanted to say hi before you started work. Good luck out there and have fun. Know that you are the best girl they've got. I hope I can see you again soon. If you ever feel hungry after work, I'd be happy to cook something for you at my place. All you need to do is ask. Good luck, enjoy yourself. Talk to you later. Bye.

He pushed the send button and hoped she got it. He also hoped it was something she would like to read. His big hope was that some time in the next few days she would take up his offer to cook her something in his apartment. Whatever happened, she would be at his place and it would show a good advancement in their relationship. It might even be the sign to him to move things to the next level, as long as she showed interest in that.
 
As Karen put on her sheer black lingerie piece her cellphone beeped. Of course before she could get to it, Vivian grabbed it first. She had a teasing grin on her face and Karen groaned. Sometimes, Viv could be a real bitch. She glanced over at Ruby who looked curiously at Viv.

Vivian began to read the message aloud, when she was finished she cooed in a sing songy voice. "Cook you dinner? How cute."

"Shut the fuck up, Viv." Karen snatched the phone back and then glared at Ruby, "And don't you say a word." she snapped.

"I will not. I think your Andrew seems very sweet, Karen." Ruby answered, her submissive ways showing somewhat. Karen raised her eyebrow at Ruby and shook her head, "Whatever."

The stage manager popped his head in the dressing room. "Show time girls. You know the drill. Karen first, Vivian second, and we close with our luscious Ruby." He winked at her then shut the door. Karen growled softly to herself and quickly text to Andrew:

Can you cook for me tonight?

She needed something to get her mind off of the 'luscious Ruby'.
 
Andrew set his phone down and hoped to hear from Karen soon. He already had the groceries ready in his fridge. He took a seat, but didn't have to wait long. He smiled when his phone rang. He couldn't believe how much his human emotions were taking hold. It was this stupid form and the weakness associated with it. He grabbed his phone and checked the message. He was surprised she wanted to take him up on his offer so soon. He quickly sent her a response.

Of course. Looking forward to it. If you want or need a ride here I can come pick you up.

He added his address on to the end of it and sent the message. He put his phone back down and then got up to start preparing some food. He knew he had time, but he could get the prep work done first. He couldn't help but wonder what Karen was thinking about him and what they had. He also thought about Ruby. He always thought about her and how he plan was working out to get her. Yet he was starting to think about her less and Karen more. He also thought about Karen in more ways than just as part of his plot. Once again it was the annoying human form and human feelings seeping in. He was fairly sure it would all go away once he returned to his normal form.
 
Karen quickly text back to Andrew:

Sure, I'd love a ride!

Things had gone on normally for the three girls. As the stage manager said, Karen went first and as normal, she was a hit! Next came Vivian and after that, Ruby. All the guys appreciated her beauty and elegance. She wasn't slutty with her dancing, Ruby somehow always managed to make her pole dancing graceful. This was only due to pole dancing being an art in hell.

Unlike on Earth, where it was considered a low class thing to do.

As Ruby got her standing ovation (or rather lots of hundreds stuffed in her lacy red bra). Karen silently growled and flopped down in her seat. She still saw no reason that Ruby should be so popular. Never the less, she was ecstatic that Andrew didn't find her in the least bit attractive.
 
Andrew got her message and planned ahead to go get her when she would be done work. He quickly finished making the food, a light pasta dish and a salad. He could only hope she would like what he had made for her. He put the pasta in the oven at low temperature just to keep it warm. He had the salad in the fridge to keep it cool and crisp. He made sure his apartment was completely prepared for her to see it.

When it came time for Andrew to go get Karen he got in his car and drove to the club. He parked outside and got out. He wasn't nearly as worried about being there any more after the events he had put in motion before. He walked inside and looked around for Karen. He saw that things were just finishing up. Ruby was walking to the back of the club. He completely ignored her and continued looking for Karen. Ruby's time would come soon enough.

When Andrew eventually spotted Karen he smiled at her and went right over to her. "Hey, are you ready to go? I have things ready for you, just staying warm in the oven."
 
Ruby exited the stage noticing that Karen's Andrew had come to retrieve her. A sense of loneliness passed over Ruby. The only problem with being on Earth instead of hell was that she had no one to become one with. It was rather lonely, mayhap even lonelier than it was in hell. Yes, she could most likely seduce any human male for her pleasure but...she would then be putting those people in danger.

Though she was a demoness, she didn't wish to put anyone in danger. For this reason alone, she felt a bit of envy towards Karen. He even payed no attention to her, which showed a true loyalty towards Karen despite the fact that he hardly knew her.

Lowering her head, she hurried back into the dressing room to get dressed.

Karen who was already dressed and ready to go, glanced over at Ruby whom seemingly had her eyes on Andrew. However, she was thankful that he payed no mind to her. She flashed him a bright smile, "Yeah, I am. I can't wait to see how talented you are behind an apron."
 
He laughed a bit and shrugged as they started out of the club. "I can't promise that it will be really good or anything. I did my best. It should be edible." He laughed again and then opened the door of his car for her. Once they were both in the car he pulled away and got them on the road to his apartment. He went through the mental list in his head and was sure he had prepared everything for Karen.

They talked in the car on the way and he learned how her day had been. When they arrived at his place he led her inside. He let her look around as he quickly went into the kitchen and got the food out of the oven. He turned it off and then just let the food cool while sitting on the counter. He returned to the living room and smiled at Karen. "The food will be ready to eat soon. Would you like something to drink while you wait? Feel free to just make yourself comfortable wherever you want." He wanted her to be able to fully relax and just enjoy her evening.
 
"I'm sure it'll be fine." Karen said with a small smile as she followed him to the car. On the drive home, they talked about her day. It was nice, this was nice; having someone to talk to about her day and not have to worry that he had some ulterior motive. Most guys she dated always had some sort of ulterior motive.

Once they were inside, Karen glanced around his apartment. It wasn't extravagant and she wasn't expecting extravagant. "You have a nice place." She said as she took a seat. "A drink would be nice. What do you have?"
 
He was really glad to hear that she liked his place. It meant the effort he had put into it paid off. He quickly listed drink options and then went to get her what she wanted. Once she had her drink he led her into the dining room. He then left for just a moment to get the food. He quickly plated some of the food for her and a lesser portion for himself. The pasta set up nicely and the salad was perfect. The plates of food looked nice. He brought them into the dining room and set them down on the table. He then took his seat across from her.

He smiled at her happily. He couldn't express how glad he was that she was there and how well things were going between them. He always had thoughts of his deadlines in the back of his mind. He knew that the better his plan went with Karen, the sooner he could fulfill his goal. Yet there were more reasons he was happy. Bigger reasons. Things he couldn't really understand and feelings he had never experienced before.
 
She'd asked for a simple coke. After working in a strip bar all night, the taste of alcohol was the last thing she wanted. Andrew grabbed her one, brought it out and then went to get the food. Karen popped open the can of soda and leaned back on the couch, waiting for Andrew to return. It didn't take long, thank god because she was starving!

She stood and walked towards the dining room as he set the table. Karen took a seat and began eating after Andrew took a seat. She sighed blissfully, "It tastes delicious. Have you been cooking long? This tastes like something out of a restaurant." She smiled.
 
Andrew looked over at her and her reaction to his meal was more than he could have expected. He hadn't thought of himself as that good of a cook. He smiled, really glad that she liked it. He shook his head and shrugged. "This is one of the first dishes I've made for someone other than myself. I'm really happy you think it is good." He started to eat and saw what she meant. It had turned out better than he had expected it to. He wondered if it was because of the time in the oven at low heat. The flavors just worked.

After the meal was over and after some good conversation as they ate, he cleared the table. It took just a few seconds to get all the dishes to the kitchen sink and then return to her. He smiled happily. "So, anything you feel like doing now that we have had something to eat? Whatever you want, even if you just feel like going home if you are tired." He looked into her eyes, hoping she didn't want to leave, but not wanting to push things.
 
"Well, you did pretty good." She emphasized once more before finishing her food along with small talk with Andrew. Finally, he'd asked if there was anything she'd like to do aside from talk. She had to agree, talking could get boring after awhile. It was nice to talk though.

However, she wasn't ready to leave and she could think of a few things to do that didn't involve talking. She stood up and stepped towards him, hips swaying as she walked. "Maybe we can watch a movie?" She suggested, her hand slowly, seducitively up and down his arm with silent words expressing that watching a movie was the last thing on her mind.
 
Beherit wasn't really surprised by her getting up, but he made it look like he was. As Andrew he barely kept composure. She looked really sexy as she moved closer to him. He could tell what she had on her mind and he liked it. He spent a few moments thinking about her suggestion and then nodded. He smiled up at her, slowly standing. He didn't say anything, he just took her hand and led her into the livingroom. He knew they might not actually be paying attention to the movie, but he wasn't just going to jump to conclusions and lead her to the bedroom.

Once in the livingroom he sat on the couch and pulled her down with him. He looked into her eyes, filled with lust. He wanted to be with her. She had him turned on and there was no turning back. Without looking he grabbed the remote and turned on the tv. He smiled at her and asked, "Any movie in particular you want to watch? Or any certain type of movie?"
 
Karen grinned at Andrew as he led her to the living room. She wasn't sure if he knew exactly what she wanted, but she was pretty certain he'd figure it out eventually. She sat down on the couch as he asked her what sort of movie she'd like to watch.

"Well, I don't have a specific movie in mind. I mean, I don't know what kind of movies you have."

Part of her wanted to say a movie they could ignore unless he had some really dirty movies lying around, except she didn't want to seem too forward. "So, what sort of movies do you have?"
 
Andrew thought about it for a minute and considered their options. He knew they would likely not actually watch it. After a little while he smiled at her. It wasn't a happy smile. It was a smile that said he was thinking exactly what she was thinking. Almost a grin. He pushed a few buttons on the remote and started looking through the channels. As he did he explained it to her. "Well, I don't have much of a collection of movies myself. So we will just need to see what the cable company has for their on demand service. Or... I have a few channels that will be showing the movies I'm sure you are thinking of right now. You know.... specialty channels." He found the channels and their names and the names of the movies they were showing clearly told what would be shown. He was quite sure she would be happy with that option. She was quite easy to read. His plan was going better than he could have ever expected.
 
Karen grinned as he quickly showed her the 'specialty channels' which in all reality just meant porn channels. She smirked and nodded, "Well, I think I would enjoy watching your 'specialty' channels." Obviously he'd hit the nail right on the head. "It doesn't matter which one, whichever one interests you is fine with me." she said, with a smile. Obviously, he knew what she wanted to do right about now. This was a good thing because she wasn't in the mood to hint at what she wanted, tonight.
