Chapter Twelve

“Are you sure about this?” Cirko asked me when he stepped into my room to watch me pack. He had considerably fewer things to take with because he was a demon and a gun was all he needed. I, on the other hand, needed my knives, two guns that were very uncomfortable in the holster around my waist, a jacket to keep all the weapons hidden, and one of the black caps I always put on.

No, wait. I used to put on caps when I didn’t want Adrian to find me.

Now, I did. I threw the cap on the bed with the greatest pleasure. Those things were so damn itchy.

“Are you?” I asked Cirko instead.

After the angel told us his story, he said he’d take us with him to go find Adrian at his house in Jersey. Now, he was waiting for us outside while we got ready.

“I mean, do you trust him? Do you really trust that he’s an angel and the actual Devil’s brother?”

I smiled. He only asked that because he’d been frozen when Eae and the Devil had their little conversation. If he’d seen it all, if he heard what I heard, he wouldn’t have asked me that.

“I do. He is. Before when you froze, they had a meeting. Kind of,” I said, checking my weapons for one last time.

“A meeting?” Cirko was confused.

“Eae sort of called the Devil, and they talked about me. And Adrian. Believe it or not, the Devil called me dumb, that asshole,” I muttered. “But apparently, he isn’t allowed to trick people in his deals, so Eae threatened to go to the Archangels. That’s why the Devil promised to stop going after Adrian.”

Cirko couldn’t speak for a long second.

“And you still think it’s safe to go with him?” He sounded more afraid than before. “Maybe we should go find Adrian by ourselves.”

But he was crazy if he thought I was going to wait even a second longer. I made for the door.

“We don’t have to trust the angel, Cirko. But we can trust Adrian. Come on, let’s go. He’ll tell us everything exactly the way it is, and we’ll make up our minds.”

I didn’t know the angel, and just because he had wings didn’t automatically make him a good guy. That’s part of the reason why I didn’t want him to go find Adrian by himself. Whatever this was, we needed to understand it, and we weren’t going to understand shit by sitting around and waiting.

“Angel,” Cirko whispered just as we walked out of the house.

“Of cou—” I started and then looked ahead. Eae was still there, by his car, just like he said he would be, but he wasn’t alone. Someone else was with him.

“It’s another angel,” Cirko said, swallowing loudly.

“How the hell do you know?”

“The smell,” he whispered. “He smells like Eae.”

“Really? What do they smell like?” I was very curious because I hadn’t felt anything different with Eae. He merely felt like a shadow to me, very different from a demon, much closer to how ordinary people felt.
