Summary
Cast from the ranks of angels that protect humans from medieval forces of evil, Gerard (née Gennadois) has become what they call a Fallen, a near vampiric archenemy of the creatures of light humanity has come to know.
Gerard had wanted to exist in debauchery and decadence to forget his past for as long as he can remember. The Fallen race he has become a part of typically descends into madness mere years after their outcast, existing too close to the fickle humans, but Gerard has resisted the animosity in his brain for countless years. The human world's ever-changing quality, one which torments the minds of other angels, is a rhythm he finds so nostalgic, but he now desires nothing more than his wings--his freedom.
Born mysteriously in the New Jersey hub of heaven with no recollection of his human life, Frank is sent on a mission: to finally dispatch the rogue Fallen wreaking havoc in the human world. When he is separated from his partner and forced into Gerard's clutches, he must make a choice: to complete his mission or aid the fallen angel in his journey back from the inferno. -

Summary
Mira knew then that her mission was now standing on the edge of a knife. The moment she caught his gaze staring at her from across the ballroom, singling her out despite the sea of people between them, she knew. She felt her heart leap to her throat at the sight of those deep, violet eyes watching her with an unreadable expression on his face. Such a perfectly exhibited poker face. He knows. A voice whispers at the back of her mind, causing a chill to run down her spine. Still, she can’t turn her back now.
Play the role. Act like you belong. She repeated over and over again in her mind as she broke eye contact with the Russian, acting as if he was someone not worthy of her giving the time of the day.
Mirava Velarios had a mission. And that was to spy on Joseph Stalin—Premier of the Soviet Union. It was a dangerous task. One she knew that could cost her everything. She had spent months mastering a plan to get herself close to the Kremlin. She had also made plans for escape should things go wrong. But what she never thought of adding into the formula of her plans was the complicated and unstable Ivan Braginsky himself. He was relentless in his chase for her and she was just as unyielding to bend. -

Summary
Alastor had a daughter in the Before; not that anyone needs to know about it, of course. She's not in hell anyway-she was good, and he thinks he would've noticed his own daughter. He's got a finger in every pie across the city, after all. She's a happy old woman, or a happy little angel by now. He's not picky.
Alice died back in 1941, at the ripe old age of 15. She's been slumming it in Hell for a few decades now, singing and working the occasional odd job to make end's meet. She's certain her Pop is nowhere in this shitstain, because, c'mon, she would've noticed him. Even if he did die when she was 8. And was revealed to be a cannibalistic serial killer after his death. Right?
(Alastor has a daughter. Said daughter and he both wind up in Hell, for various different offenses. They reunite at the opening of a certain iconic hotel, and work towards bonding. As well as an emotionally constipated serial killer demon and his "what's an authority figure and why should I care about them" daughter can bond.)
(Soft dad Alastor.)
