[3rd POV | Charlie and Co]
While Lucifer and the family was in their room, Charlie was briskly walking away from them. Her face that was previously in a bright cheery mood, warped and changed into one of confusion and worry.
She had never seen something like that before. Her father was strong. Her mother was strong. She had seen angels and seen exorcists. She had seen some of the strongest individuals in all of hell, and seen their rampages and the true extent of what their power can be.
And none of them, not a single one, could even hope to achieve something like that. To effortlessly warp reality on that scale and change the entire hotel in a singular flex of power. With a simple snap of a finger, the woman had changed the entire hotel into something entirely new, and better.
She could literally feel the hotel now. It was almost as if it was sentient or something of the sort. Protected, defended, and magical in nature.
Charlie wasn't sure how to feel about any of this. On one hand, she was so incredibly happy to hear that they had chosen to go to her hotel. On another, she was disappointed that they were not there to try to seek redemption and enter heaven. But instead they were there for nothing more than a vacation.
Her hotel, meant for healing, was nothing more than a vacation spot to them.
She, the Princess and Heir to the Throne of Hell, was seen as nothing more than the owner to their vacation spot.
She would have laughed if she wasn't so lost on what to do about this situation.
Entering the downstairs of the hotel, she was met with the concerned look of her girlfriend, Vaggie.
"You alright there hon?" Vaggie asked, using that soft tone and the worried eyes that always made her heart flutter softly.
"I'm fine. Just uh...a little blind sided, that's all! It's not everyday someone like that comes into the hotel!" Charlie replied with a bright grin on her face, as Husk snorted.
"You mean someone that makes ole Alastor here look like an ant?" Husk said, as Alastor's creepy grin began to widen.
"Oh dear, what makes you think that that woman is my better? Perhaps I am just waiting for a better stage to show my true power" Alastor asked, as he looked down at the cat like demon. Husk rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, sure bud, whatever you want to tell yourself. But anyone with eyes can see that whoever and whatever the fuck that woman is, she ain't no damn demon. Not a normal one. I've seen and met overlords and even the Sins themselves, and not a single one of them can do something like that. And we all know it" Husk replied blandly, knowing that not even Charlie's father could just warp reality with a snap of his finger.
Sure, he could do it on a localized scale, to a small level. But to warp the entire hotel and it's surroundings? Yeah, not even he could do that. He had limits, and the woman that had entered the hotel did not seem to have them.
Not to the same level.
"Oh? And what are we to do my good man? Kill her? Capture her? Torture her?" Alastor asked with his creepy grin warping as dark runes floated around him as if the world itself was glitching and warping due to his presence.
"I could seduce her~ Her and that wife of hers are quite-" "Oh can I stab her?" It's pretty obvious who had said this.
"No no no! We are not doing any of that! We are not killing her, capturing her, torturing her, seducing her, or stabbing her! We are going to leave her, and her family alone" Charlie said, cutting off Alastor, Angel Dust, and Niffty.
"Yeah that is a horrible idea. If she was able to literally warp reality on the entire hotel without anyone even realizing it, what do you think she could have done to all of us? She could have killed us that same moment, with nothing more than a snap of her finger" Vaggie added, agreeing with her girlfriend on this one.
"So I can't seduce her or her wife?"
"No, and frankly, I doubt you'd even get a chance. They have a bunch of kids, so they have been together for a long time. Not to mention the fact that she'd probably just kill you if you try to touch her wife" Vaggie bluntly said.
"Yeah and I doubt an angel would be interested in some lowly demon" Husk added, as everyone turned to him.
"What? It's pretty fucking obvious that the lady is an angel, or something similar. She was literally glowing when she entered" Husk said, not understanding the looks they were giving him.
"Wait...so if she's an angel, why the hell is she here? And why the hell is an angel lady with a demon?" Angel Dust asked the question that immediately had propped up in everyone's mind.
"We could just ask them you know" Husk said.
"Yeah no. Second they realize we know that the lady is an angel, we're getting wiped off hell's surface. I'd rather not die by pissing off an angel and her wife that might be something superior to Charlie's dad" Vaggie replied, looking at Husk like he is a moron.
To be fair, in a situation like this, he did kind of sound like one. Who would want to potentially piss off the exact counter to your very being, and an entity that makes the Lord of Hell look like a toddler?
"So what, we're going to act like we don't know? Sounds like a dumbass idea, cause there is no way in fuck that they're not going to know the moment they come near any of us. Charlie alone is making it damn obvious that we know something" Husk said, pointing at Charlie who was actively picking at her nails.
"He's got a point" Angel Dust said, having to agree, with even Alastor nodding.
"The cat is correct"
"Plus, even if they don't realize that we know thanks to Charlie, there is someone else that will make it very obvious that we know" Husk trailed off, as he turned and looked at Niffty, who was actively stabbing a cockroach, and was...eating it?
"...We're so fucked" Vaggie muttered, as sounds of agreement echoed.

"They're terrified" Alice said with a snort, as she and Lucifer had been watching the entire interaction. It was rather funny to see them overthink things to clearly, and it was also funny to see that they knew about her being an angel, or at least part angel.
"Oh definitely. But we cannot blame them. You are currently in an angelic form, and I am seemingly a demon that surpasses the strongest known demonic being in hell. Anyone would be scared of angering me" Lucifer replied to her wife, while the children were putting away their clothes where they had wanted them, and looking around the room a bit more.
"How long should we act like we don't know that they know?" Alice asked, as Lucifer shrugged.
"Until they trip up on their own words. So probably not very long" Lucifer replied, not seeing any reason to say anything until they do.
And so, with that, they began to set up their room some more, while the demons downstairs continued to freak out.
All in all, it was an amusing first interaction.
