    "Leave me alone, Azlan," Shahana choked out, her voice tight with anger and despair. "I'm not going anywhere with you." Ignoring her pleas, Azlan reached for her wrist, his grip firm but not brutal. Shahana flinched, the memory of countless similar moments flashing before her eyes. She tried to pull away, but his hold was unwavering. Desperate, she cast a pleading glance at her father, who stood frozen, his face a mask of conflicting emotions. His wife reached out to comfort him but was stopped by a subtle shake of his head. "Azlan, listen to me," Shahana said, her voice shaking. " I don't want to be in this relationship anymore. I want a divorce." The words hung heavy in the air, met with a tense silence. Azlan's jaw clenched, his eyes hardening. He wouldn't let her go, not without a fight. Yet, amidst the fire of his determination, a flicker of pain flickered across his face. Shahana, emboldened by the spark of vulnerability, shifted her gaze towards her in-laws. "Baba," she pleaded, her voice trembling slightly. "Please ask Azlan to stop. I don't want to leave with him." Azlan's father, a man known for his calm demeanor, took a hesitant step forward. "Azlan," he began, his voice measured. "Perhaps we should all..." Before he could finish, Azlan cut him off, his voice laced with a controlled fury. "No, Dad. This is a private matter. Let us handle it." Even in the heat of his emotions, respect for his family shone through. He may be a ruthless businessman, but he wouldn't disrespect his father, the one person he truly valued. However, on this issue, he was determined to have his way. Ignoring everyone, he marched towards his car, grabbed her arm, and ushered her into the passenger seat. Without a word, he started the engine and sped away.

    'A powerful Exorcist Angel whom finds himself stuck in Hell after his sudden desertion during an Extermination, due to having found out he had been manipulated by Adam into thinking he could be made into something greater, something important, should he follow his orders and do as he was told. Having no one to trust, no one to turn to, he's forced to spend his remaining time in hiding, fearful of the wrath and anguish of Hell's Sinners upon seeing an injured Exorcist. He then stumbles across a tall, whacky looking building with half a ship, a merry-go-round, and a radio tower sticking out of it. Little hope left and a half-step away from Death's door, the broken and bloodied Angel stumbles his way over, having no idea just how much this one decision would change his life.' Had this idea for a while now, and now that S2 of Hazbin got a trailer, and since I already referenced it in my Helluva Boss story, figured it was about time.
