Dedicated to the super nice Subway lady who, when I was having a really shitty day, was so nice, and said some very nice things about reading this story. You also made an amazing sandwich!

So. Bel's back. Mostly. And Lucifer is going through it. 

Sharkie is a gem, as usual. 

Oh, and Kat, there's some Greg. 

I have some great ideas for stuff coming up that I'm excited to share with you all!

As always, I love reading your comments, and I appreciate every one of you.

Please don't share this story anywhere else!

Kat 💜

Jonda Goss

Thank you. This will be a great treat after a long day of work on Wander.

Katie Perkins

Thank you so much. I needed him home and safe as much as lily did

Kori

The amount you make me cry with relief, sadness, and happiness all at once is unfair!

Debra Cimabue

Thank you. This gave us more insight to Greg, Lilith and Lucifer. Thank goodness for the subway lady! 🫶🏻✋🏻

Lori Wellborn

I “share” updates with my friends that go like this: “OMG!!! The new chapter of the prequel is up! Go subscribe so you can read it!!”

Kali Chamberlain

I held it together till the last line! I'm just glad he's ok! And the more insight into Luci and Greg yes! And Angel! Love it all!

Madelyn Shea

fuck not me crying. he would grab her leg with his tail i love that man so much.

Embeth Arreyn

Well now I'm sobbing. But it's okay, I needed it 😭😭😭😭 Don't mind me, I'm just over here crying at, well, everything. Sharkie sending inspirational messages, Lily taking care of Luci and Greg, Lilith at her son's bedside, BEL BEING HOME AND ALIVE, like I've watched all of Hell's Belles, I KNOW he's alive, but I needed to read it damn it. Thank you for this; I've really, really needed this chapter ❤️

Jess Sokel

What a spectacular chapter, I can't wait to have this in print someday as a go-to comfort read

JustSurvibing

Peter Psareas

Mac T

Damn it you made me cry

Shay

I have sent my family the link for the AO3 story because I keep telling them about this AMAZING story that keeps making me cry. I haven't even read this chapter yet. I KNOW it's going to be emotional and I'm trying to get myself ready to cry....

Trish Ramey

I'm not crying! You're crying!😭🥰

Elle

Masterful storytelling. I now keep a box of tissues by my side when I see you’ve posted something new. Absolutely incredible!

BaconVader

🥺😢🥺Beautiful read, and a beautiful story. Thank you.

Aj Holder

This chapter was amazing I’ve seen the series many times so I know held alive but it’s good to read that he’s alive it different. And the last line with the TAIL damn that was amazing!

StardustKyber

His tail…. I started cryingggggg

Erica Rodriguez

So many feels!!! And that last little scene… **heart bursts**

Daysi

4 am here in the U.K. and I am up reading and trying so hard no to cry/sob. The amount of emotions I went through!!

Kirsty Skok

Damn it, I need more tissues. That last bit... ohhhh.

Devilcat

Oh the tail. Now that episode of hells bells where Bel doesn’t check in after a mission feels different. Since he had already almost died once. Lilys compassion with Lucifer and getting Greg to open up. I love all of this. I tell people about the story but I don’t send it to them or anything. I do write down quotes from it that help me with my own shit.

Amber Chisholm

That was beautiful! Greg telling her she could call him greg, the kiss from lillith and the tail ❤️

Laura Rennhack

This was beautifully written, I am crying at my desk. The last line about the tail around her leg made me bawl!!

Joi Itapson

Don't mind me just silently weeping.

Kassie

Not me sitting in bed sobbing!!!!!

Moonbow89

The tears I just wept. Your writing is so good it swept me away and I was right there with them. You are an artist in one of the truest forms.

Tyler Davie

What is this, the fifth or six chapter in a row that you made us all cry? Well done.

Lori Wellborn

Dammit, Jaysea! That was beautiful.

KK

I swear to all that is holy in the universe of the afterlife is not like this I am going to be pissed I am fully certain that u have lived there experienced this and are sending us ur life there I can't handle how much I'm invested in this. With every chapter or episode I go thur and rewatch or reread the whole thing. Now we have to discuss this tail thing... how are u gonna make me cry like this 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥹🥹🥹🥹 like I have been bedside when they have squizzed my hand... u just can't make me feel this much it shouldn't be possible but thank you 🥰🥰🥹🥹

Tatianna

This one gave me something I didn’t know I needed. Which is a good thing. I’m also going to be emotionally eating sooo much ice cream.

Yasmin Smith

I am at work reading this and getting wierd looks cos i am crying. Love your writing

Thornblade

Ohhhhhh gods.... Jaysea this was beautiful. Anything I could say has already been said in regards to the writing. I will however echo what so many have said. THANK YOU. For ALL that you do. Cheers. 🍻

Daniel Mann

OMG!!! That last line….. perfection

PurpleGoblin

Dammit Greg, now I’m crying!

Amy Camila

I’m freaking sobbing 😭 I am so glad I got to read this today I just got my wisdom teeth out this was a reward honestly.

Tyler Davie

That's actually a very good question, I'm not fully sure when the last one I didn't cry at was.

Samantha Johnson

Why you gotta make me cry like this? And the tail too? As always, beautiful. And I can't wait for more and I sincerely and fervently hope for Greg and Penny's story next because..its Greg.

Mark

Almost midnight here in Florida, but I was just notified by Patreon that Ch. 33 had dropped. Propped myself up on some pillows and simply inhaled the chapter. Oh, the tail...THE TAIL! Absolute genius. Jaysea, you need to print/publish it. I'll be the first one in line to get an autographed hard copy at your book signing here in Sarasota!

RubyRedDemise

My FEEEEEEELS. Beautiful chapter. Every chapter makes me desperate for more. Can’t wait til the return of the series on TikTok too.

La Tricia Ransom aka OlivenBoo

Isolation as self harm -- oof! That really hit home! I didn't even realize that is what I've been doing, bit there it is, in black and white. Damn! I swear, Jaysea, you're good with holding up that mirror. And your writing is so good. The tail detail made me wish I had one, or knew someone who did; that was so sweet. Also, dunno if you want editing comments/feedback, but neither needs a nor (not or).

Only Slightly Venomous

Jaysea, your consistent ability to move me to tears is an incredible skill

Sherry Lorton

Another amazing chapter. ❤️. Thank you so much Jaysea for sharing your wonderful talent for storytelling with us! Can’t wait for the next chapter. 🤟

Tisha Bell

I am way too emotionally invested in this story and still held my breath...even after watching all the later videos and KNOWING he is ok...such a beautiful chapter!

Phil Mangefrida

Knowing that Bel is going to live in the end, doesn’t help know what he’ll is going to go through in healing.

Hannah

ouch ouch ouch

Hannah

but seriously, SO well written

Mackenzie Hiltz

This is definitely not me awake at a completely unreasonable hour just because I needed this so badly that sleep suddenly went to the bottom of my priority list. Also, daaammnn you didn't tell us that the chapter came with our own personal squad of onion cutting ninjas! Also definitely not me crying. In all seriousness though, you've built such an amazing world with wonderful characters and this chapter just continues to show your amazing writing ability! (Seriously, where do we sign up for pre-releases if you decide to go physical book(s)?

melkay31

😭😭💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

?Eli?

OMG THIS WAS SO WELL WRITTEN!!!! IM BALLLING😭😭😭😭 THE EMOTIONS THAT RAN THROUGH THIS CHAPTER, INSTANTLY MY FAVORITE ONE (even though my heart aches for lilly and bel, I just can't get over how good this chapter is)

Carrissa Schauer

Ah that ending! Perfect! So glad you're back, and glad you also got a break.

Thomas Forrest

All that I can say is that that was the payoff that I had been waiting for! So glad to see that even with all of the hard things in the road ahead everyone will get through it! (Don’t worry, both the “You can call me Greg”, as well as the tail wrap had me absolutely SOBBING!) Gracefully done Jaysea! Can’t wait for what’s upcoming on this wonderful journey!

Veronica Gordon

The emotions I felt in this chapter 🥹 I know Bel was always going to be ok but BEL’S OK!!!!

Melissa

Wow! Just wow. That was incredible.

Lesly

I am a puddle of tears. So we’ll done

Calie Herman

Im so happy to see a post tonight. I havent read it yet but am about to. Ive been so stressed due to a sadistic chem prof, i really needed this.

Anthea ✨

That last line had me SOBBING

Kat 💜

Oh. My. Heart. Although I should've been, I wasn't prepared for all of the different emotions. Lily, Sharkie, Luci, Zagan, Bel... GREG. My heart shattered and sang at the same time. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to cry myself to sleep 🥺💜

PunisherLuv

masterfully written the emotions the imagery the acknowledgment of the importance of non blood family and the understanding of those bonds

Ashley Poindexter

That ending 🥹🥹🥹 My heart can’t handle it.

Sam

BRB gonna go rewatch the whole series on TT at 2:30am EST to remind myself that Bel is ok

Alexis Crespo

My partner made me cry tonight so when I got the notification I was beyond thrilled. Just what I needed. And the tail!!! 🥹🥹

Juliana

ok so now i know what it means and i'm an emotional wreck. jaysea you never ever fail to write beautiful, deeply emotional chapters that leave everyone in shambles every time. i love greg and lily's friendship so much and bel wrapping his tail around lily's calf at the very end left me absolutely inconsolable in the best way

Joy Moore

Oh damn, I managed to not cry cry till that last line, now I’m ugly crying

Tzwaenia.fox

Well crying wasn't the first thing I wanted to do on a Sunday morning but here I am. Love the conversation with Luci and Greg and that you acknowledged the importance of chosen family. The interaction with Lilith such a sweet little detail. And the tail - I love that 💜 but poor Zagan 😟 now excuse me, I need to reread this at least another three times

Van Brewer

Every writer has some characteristics that set them apart from others. I’m not sure I could summarize yours in less than a paragraph or two, but one thing this chapter pointed out: you don’t take the obvious path in your stories, you make the obvious path. Like most of your stories, this chapter wasn’t what I expected – I’m not sure what I expected – but after reading, it was so exactly what I wanted and needed. This was the quintessential illustration of “bends but doesn’t break” Lily. Of course, bending without breaking hurts like a motherfucker, too. The conversation with Lucifer was sensitive and articulate and contributed to his character development, as well as the story at large. The conversation with Zagan just about broke my heart - honor to his brother, love to Zagan and family. It’s wonderful how all the denizens of Hell really worked for each other in trying times. Lilith demonstrated the wisdom and love of ages in a very touching way - “my son, but your love” belongs in the litany of your greatest phrases. Great insight into Greg’s complex character, and I know his Biggest Fan will appreciate that! Above all, you literally brought Bel back from the jaws of death. Crawling into bed to be close and hold his hand was a super touching mental image, but when his tail spoke for Bel’s heart and soul, it was sublime. This is totally inadequate to capture my feelings towards your work, but - thank you. Please go have an extra special cup of coffee or something, this one’s on me, take a few minutes, read your comments, and savor the satisfaction of having created something from, by and of yourself that resonates with so many others. Be well!!

Kitty S

Amazing. Perfection. Sobbing. Can't form sentences. 👌

Jen

I love the world you have created. Humanity not perfection, kindness not expectations and humorous families that have bonded themselves together. Your skill as a writer, a creator and an artist is exceptional. Now, who is chopping all the onions…!? xoxo

Xypher SkotI

Not me sobbing 😭 how dare you inflict emotions on me on a Sunday morning. Gods this was beautiful and I loved it and I’m so glad that Bel is home and will recover (even though we knew he would but still!)

Rogue

I think I've got my friend convinced to sign up to your patreon to read this! I keep talking about how amazing your writing is and I told her she has a lot of catching up to do so we can talk about the story together with our coffee dates!!!

Keith Frederick

Fantastic. Sincerely, the evolution of your writing has been so cool to see as a fellow writer. I caught myself holding my breath, waiting to see if Bel was OK, even though I clearly knew that he was going to be fine. That’s talent. Hell’s Belles has become a huge comfort entertainment for me - both the videos and the book you’re writing - and the world you’ve created gives me a level of hope that is a bit jarring in all honesty.

Matthew Williams

Beautiful. Masterful writing to the very core. So evocative and vivid. There's just one absolutely tiny thing I think could be improved in terms of impact. That stand alone sentence two paragraphs before Gregorith tells Lily he can call her Greg is the only time in the scene you use "Greg" in the narration. I think changing that could be good. Maybe it's the closeness to the line and the change after the line break/scene change, but it feels like it takes away just a smidgen of the emotional intensity. It also would help emphasize the change in reference to just "Greg" after the line break even more. But, like I said, it's a tiny thing that could absolutely go unchanged. One of those minute details a copy editor would suggest, but that aren't necessary. Regardless, goosebumps and tears all around from the emotions in this chapter.

Audrey

Just like Lily I held together until Greg. He IS family, and I love his relationship with Lily !! 😍

Syd San99

Im sobbing ....again

Viri

Crying, sobbing even

Judy Sullivan

Oh my. I’m going to do a second read through for edits. I just HAD to read for content only the first time. I just. Wow. The scene with Greg: perfect. Lucifer: I could FEEL the tension and forced patience. The ending: that’s what finally got me.

Karen Wright

2 days in a row of ugly crying...but the smile that broke through when his tail wrapped around her leg.

Vanessa Whitehead

Oh you evil, wonderful, talented writer!!!! I'm very proud/excited/wanting more of you and this series! I enjoyed the moment with God and feel like the family wasn't complete but the beginnings are there. I can see you pulling them in together and starting the basis of the family we know and love! Please keep up the amazing work you are doing, remember to take care of yourself as you research into the deeper and darker sides, and know you are loved and fully supported!

Leia Wilson

OMG amazing as always brought tears to my eyes!!!

C Williams

Oh the tail twine at the end. Why am I crying???? Because its Bel and everybody loves Bel.

Sara Jayne

Told myself I was a strong woman unmoved bu things. Weeping over these two.

Sara Cox

Thank you for making me cry

Bec Sweet

I am so glad to see you are doing well and have returned to writing. I hope your time away was refreshing as it needed to be and that you got what you needed. Once again you have done wonderfully, I truly love this series and can not wait to see how far it goes in the future!

Marloes

Crying. Oh Bel. Oh Lily. Oh Gregorith. ❤️

LeAnne

Oh i didn't even make that connection when I read this last night😭😭

Ashley Dye

I have loved reading this! You really do have a great talent and I look forward to reading more.

Tina

Me reading with tears streaming. Hubby: well shit did the demon guy die? Me: no babe, he’s home, Lily fell asleep by him and woke up to his tail wrapped around her leg (still bawling) Hubby while patting my leg: I’ll buy you the book as soon as it comes out.

Ainsley Bowers

I cried so much I knew he would live but reading it gives me so much relief seeing him there beside her again oh my heaven I love reading your chapters so much its such a fun emotional roller coaster.

Kira Burnham

I knew he would be ok because of the Hell's Bells series, but I still could help but cry and sigh in relief that our Big Guy is home and alive 😭

Lalakay

My husband almost died this year. And the memories of laying my head on his chest and being thankful for that heartbeat and familiar warmth is intensely real. Thank you so much for this story. It's honestly one of the first books I've read in a long time. Im excited for the coming chapters.

Audie Lee

The tail twine 😭😭😭

May Barros

So goooood! Also I love the implication that Lily is already a being of the Afterlife with that comment about how souls couldn't feel what was wrong XD

Ben Brown

Your break set your writing on fire!!!!

Rebecca Van Winkle

Love the story I can't wait. You do an amazing job of telling the story. I have laughed and cried. Funny enough my husband was concerned when he saw me crying. As hard as it is to write and deal with trauma you did it beautifully

Sienna

I just finished I am crying

Tabithaw7

Love!!!!!! Also- is there an explanation on how healing works? I know energy was mentioned but I think it would be helpful. Also was there an explanation on the different realms and why/how they are there? Because I get that they are there but I don’t get how the universe/realms are set up. Thanks!

Jordan Yeager

Finally!! My heart feels like it hasn’t beat right in a month! And Greg telling Lily she can call him Greg?!?! Tears. Immediate tears.

Elizabeth Werstein

I cried so much. A beautiful chapter and I can’t wait for more!

Sean Price

I love the works so far. How each person is explained. I've come dangerously close to tears every time I've read. keep up the great work :-)

Shawnee904

I wonder when that is going to register with her. It seems like it went over her head in the moment...

Yemima

On Page 16 there's a little mistake the she in she hasn't seen him in more than a month lost it's e :( Also, poor Bel, I'm just glad knowing that he has to get out alright cause of the hells belles series🥺

Jett Gibbs

Aww. I just loved the end of this. Just enough to help you deal with the worry before hand

Mari

Omg I absolutely love this I can't wait to read more and fall more in love with the story line more and more.

WillWon

This whole chapter made me sob. When sharpie said “We’ll be okay. Like eventfully, we might just need some fussing.” I fucking lost it.

Jessie Kortright

I sobbed through this whole chapter. Goddamn jaysea you made me fucking cry! Why do you gotta be such an amazing writer????

Cassie Tudor

Oh the roller coaster of emotions.. my heart is broke and happy all at the same time ❤️‍🩹

Nicola Allison

You can call me Greg😭 the tail😭

Araceli Garcia

Oh my heart! I loved this chapter and of course balled my eyes out while reading it. ❤️‍🩹😭

Kat

How do you get me so emotional every time? You paint images with your words. (Grabs another tissue.)

Oleafiya Thorn

I, like Lily, was doing good until that last sentence. Now I'm bawling!

G

I loved this!!! I love the little hints that we’re getting that Lily’s ability to feel the “weird” sense is something that will be addressed later. I’m like 99.9% sure it has to do with her being fated to become a member of the Afterlife when she yields her ability to reincarnate. Greg!!! You are family!! I love Greg!! I hope this story or maybe a sequel dives into his courtship with Penny. I know we see most of it on Hells Belles but I’d love to see how they first meet and what Greg’s thoughts are as he falls for Penny and she him.

Sarah

You are such an amazing talented writer it's been way too long since a book has pulled me in this way I haven't been able to set it down, got me over here washing dishes with a make shift stand for my phone so I can read while i handle my momming duties thank you so much! I look forward to reading any and everything u come out with on the hells bellz stories, I have already watched every episode u posted on tiktok and go to your page every day excitedly praying to the universe theres a new episode

Eilidh

I wonder if it'll be anything like/take inspiration from the fanfic Penny series on AO3...

Eilidh

Idk if it's my HRT acting up or what but I legit cried, like literally shed tears, because of this book. Twice. First it was Bel's backstory and now this. Just to emphasise, I have never before cried because of a book, ever. And now I have found myself in literal fucking tears TWICE due to this story. Truly the highest possible compliment I can give an author. Just... wow. Please never stop writing, this is amazing!!!

Felicity Shields

Stop making me cry JC. I'm blubbering. And this is the PREQUEL? Please never stop writing.

Samantha Pare

Thank all the gods! I knew he was going to be fine cause like... he was obviously alive and well for the tiktok series, but like OMG STOP SCARING ME. MY TEAR DUCTS CAN'T HANDLE IT

Vicki S

Damn you woman,, it's 34 minutes past minute here in the UK and I can't stop reading... now I'm led here with tears strolling down my face. In all seriousness whenever you publish this book I'm buying every type of copy, hardback,paperback,ebook audio the lot. What a talent you have my lovely x

Katie Armstrong

These last few chapters were so real and raw. And also reminded me of the song Death of Peace of Mind by Bad Omens. Mostly just the chorus. But damn. I had the feels. The leaky eye feels.

Alyssa Knepper

Fucking hell... The emotional whiplash alone... Fucking love you and praise you for conveying that so masterfully!!!
