Raised in Hell. Living in Buffalo.

Least of all one this gorgeous, stubborn, and with the power to completely nullify evil.

So Gideon strikes a deal with Evangeline: he'll scratch her wings...if she'll scratch his.Now good and evil are-temporarily-working together. And might even be having steamy fun...if it wasn't for a rather inconvenient threat trying to unleash the apocalypse, once and for all.
