Once everyone was seated, Maisy and Lilith shared a nervous glance, each silently wondering to the other how Rachel would handle the truth. Maisy finally broke the ice. "So, like you were saying about royalty... we actually are royalty, but our country isn't small and you've definitely heard of it."
"Oh?" Rachel asked, not quite understanding. "I know you guys aren't British, and you don't strike me as Spanish or Scandinavian. That only leaves a bunch of tiny countries among the European monarchies that I've heard of. Are you the deposed royal family of a former monarchy or something like that?"
"We were certainly on the losing side of a revolution," Lily chuckled dryly, "but that was actually how we gained our throne, ironically enough."
"I don't think I understand," Rachel said, raising an eyebrow.
"I'll just give it to you straight," Maisy sighed. "Our kingdom isn't of this Earth. I'm a Princess of Hell. My legal name isn't Maisy Morgenstern. It's Princess Miasma Morningstar, Heiress to the Ninth Circle."
"And my real name is Queen Lilith Morgenstern," said Lily. "Feel free to call me 'Lilith' now that you know. Miasma's taken a shine to the name 'Maisy,' though."
"That's because 'Miasma' means 'pollution' or 'defilement' in Greek," Maisy commented with a roll of her eyes. "Seriously, demon names are the worst."
"So..." Rachel said hesitantly. "If you're a princess of Hell, and your mom's Lilith, does that mean your dad is...?"
"The Devil?" Maisy said, unable to stop herself from smiling. "Satan? Lucifer? The Prince of Darkness? Whichever of those names you were thinking of, the answer is yes. Don't worry, he's actually mellowed out a lot since his rebellion and the 'incident' in Eden. Heaven worked out a treaty with him about 1,800 years ago. The celestial forces agreed to recognize Hell as a sovereign nation with Dad as its king as long as Dad acknowledged God as the rightful ruler of Heaven and ceased all active temptation of humans."
"And he agreed?" Rachel asked, a bit surprised to hear that the Devil could be reasonable or open to compromise.
"Of course he did," said Lilith. "It's not like we really need to encourage sin anymore. The humans are drawn to it just fine on their own. Making nice with God and not getting greedy struck my husband as a small price to pay to put an end to thousands of years of raids on Hell by the celestial armies. Now Heaven and Hell largely leave each other alone and focus on doing their jobs, the angels providing a fitting reward to worthy human souls and the demons serving as cosmic prison wardens for wayward souls."
"I'm still having trouble believing that you're demons!" Rachel said, clutching her temples. "My dad always said that demons are real and active on Earth, but I was never sure I believed him. And now here I am listening to my girlfriend and her mother telling me that they're the daughter and wife of Satan. I thought I was in a Hallmark movie, and now I actually AM in some kind of paranormal romance novel! This can't really be true, can it? It has to be some kind of joke you're playing, a test to see if I'm worthy of joining the family."
"Let's show her," said Lilith. "Seeing is believing to humans, after all."
Maisy nodded and turned to Rachel. "You need to see me as I truly am, Sweetie."
Rachel gasped as Maisy and Lilith began to transform. Maisy's skin turned a light purple color, while her mother's skin switched to a dark crimson hue. Both women's teeth sharpened, and their nails became wicked claws. Goat-like horns burst from Lilith's head while a magnificent set of antlers pushed out of Maisy's own temples. At the same time, each woman gained an extra two feet of height as their breasts swelled. In particular, Maisy's formerly modest-sized breasts jumped up multiple cup sizes. The mother and daughter's asses also rounded and grew more shapely, Maisy's in particular. Lilith's legs then began to fuse into a scaly serpent tail while bat-like wings unfurled from the Hellish queen's shoulder blades. At the same time, Maisy's feet became cloven hooves and black-feathered wings grew from her back. Finally, a deer-like tail grew out of Maisy's shapely rump. Maisy and Lily had transformed into Princess Miasma and Queen Lilith!
"Holy snickerdoodles!" Rachel gasped. (She may not have been her father's biggest fan, but the old zealot had still managed to condition his daughter to be unable to swear.) "You... you really ARE demons!" She gawked at Maisy's and Lilith's demonic bodies, trying not to masturbate at the sight of their exotic and voluptuous true forms. In the end, she lost the internal struggle and slid her hand into her soaked panties, rooting around until she found her erect clit and began to rub it.
"I'll take that as a compliment, honey," Maisy giggled as she watched her girlfriend pleasure herself.
Rachel blushed beet red as she realized that she was masturbating in front of her girlfriend's mother. "Oh! I'm so sorry, Mrs. Morgenst... I mean Mrs. Morningstar! I... I don't normally just randomly play with myself when I look at your daughter. I'm not a pervert! I mean... sure, we've had sex, but we can keep our hands off each other (and our own privates)... mostly."
Lilith could barely hold back from laughing. "Oh, you are a preacher's daughter, Rachel. Trust me, demons aren't prudes. I have no problems with you expressing your sexual attraction to my daughter. I honestly find it a beautiful thing."
"Oh, okay," Rachel sighed in relief.
Maisy then cleared her throat awkwardly. Now or never. "There's one other thing you need to know, Rachel. I came to Earth to find true love. The nobles of Hell just want to marry me for my power, so I went to the one place where nobody knows who I am in hopes of finding someone who loves me for who I am rather than for my royal title."
"Maybe I really AM in a Hallmark movie!" Rachel laughed. "A really weird, Hell-themed Hallmark movie. Heh, Hellmark!"
"You should probably hold off on the jokes until you've heard the rest of this," Maisy said darkly. "This is serious. Dad's getting impatient for me to get married, and he's ordered me to propose to you today. According to the ancient cosmic laws governing relationships between humans and divine beings, you have two choices: marry me within a week or die."
"Yikes," Rachel winced. "Definitely liking the 'marry my amazing girlfriend' option more than the 'get killed by supernatural forces' option. Just to be safe, what happens if I marry you?"
"You get transformed into a demon and come to Hell with me for the wedding," Maisy answered, a hopeful smile on her face. "And then you live with me in our infernal palace. Sound good?"
"It actually does," Rachel grinned. "I'd actually love to look like you and your mom do right now and live in a palace in a magical realm. But most of all, I just want to finally be your wife. You're sweet, you're fun, you're smart, you're beautiful, and I can't wait to be part of your family! Yes, Maisy! I am DEFINITELY marrying you!"
Maisy caught Rachel in a happy embrace. "Thank you, Rachel! I was so worried that you'd get freaked and say no, and then I'd lose you to death! Not that Death isn't a great guy (he's Dan's true identity), but still!"
Lilith cleared her throat. "So, Rachel... would you like to be transformed right now and come check out the palace, or would you and Miasma like one last week on Earth to make preparations for this massive life change?"
