Asphodel City is for those stuck in the Between, the plane that separates the living and dead. In it, Azrael is living the life as the top bounty-hunting Angel. The only problem is that Jophiel, a rival hunter, is not only threatening his position after rising to rank #2, but is a constant thorn in Azra's side.

When a mastermind called "The Devil" begins killing off angels and putting whole dimensions in jeopardy, Azra and Jo have to band together in order to stay alive and save the world. But will they be able to put aside their rivalry to do so?

Wings, Flings, and Demon Kings [Paranormal Romance] by SophieKestrel
22 parts Complete Mature
[COMPLETE] A rambly angel. A debonair demon. A very stuck elevator... NIRAEL has never been the best angel. A little too loud, always in the wrong place at the wrong time, she constantly finds herself written up by her archangel superiors for minor misdemeanors. When her Remedial Goodness program forces her to do a capstone project on Earth, she decides this will be the day she finally turns her life around. That is, until she meets... AZERATH has always been a good demon. Which, for a demon, is tantamount to career suicide. Sent to Earth as part of his Remedial Evil program, his demonic superiors issue him an ultimatum: corrupt a hundred souls in the next month or risk being unmade. But they didn't specify that the souls he corrupts have to be human. Mostly romcom fluff with a dash of existential angst.

The Anthem Saga: Left In The Dark -- Four Chapter Preview by AmandaCJohnston
4 parts Complete
"A fun and immersive read, that cracks a surprisingly humble door into a new and extravagantly detailed alternate universe you thought you already knew." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️- S. Walters Johnny was trying to outrun a Hell of a past, and he thought he had been doing a decent job of it. He had found himself a life in Anthem City, and a semblance of a family, finally experiencing what he considered to be peace. Then a mysterious woman walked past the stoop where he and his boys spent their time, and he found that he couldn't get her out of his mind. That night Anthem was plunged into a complete blackout, and the heat of the summer caused the city's residents to boil over; rioting, looting, and setting the city alight. Along with the blackout came the threat of a serial killer at large on the streets of Anthem, but that was the least of Johnny's worries. He knew all too well that the real peril wasn't from the people in the streets, nor from the killer in the shadows. The danger was coming from above and below, and Johnny would be the only one who could stop the soldiers of Heaven and Hell from tearing his city and his family apart.

Tbh this isnt that good yall should go read my good omens one shots those are better "They'll leave us alone... for a bit." That's what Crowley had told Aziraphale, and Aziraphale had trusted him. How could he not? The angel and demon pairing had been best friends for over 6,000 years and Crowley's voice was just so convincing. But oh boy, was he wrong. Mere weeks after the failed Armageddon, Heaven and Hell grew restless. They felt cheated out of a much needed war- a war that the angels should have won. After many days of arguing, Heaven and Hell shockingly came to an agreement- they would host a series of challenges, games if you will, to prove which side was better. When both Crowley and Aziraphale refuse to participate, Heaven and Hell punish them with something so awful that the boys wish they had just stayed on their respective sides and followed the Plan. Will this punishment bring the demon and the angel closer, or will it tear them apart for good? Story length: 12,193 Words
