Chapter 15

“You really need to stop teleporting me around like a child.” Khloe shoved at Jagger the moment they took form inside Divinity House and walked off.

If they’d been alone, he'd silence that sharp tongue of hers by putting it to good use. But they weren't alone, and the situation with the demons had just gotten more complex.

“They knew we were there,” Zach blurted out as he flashed inside the living room and sat down on the sofa.

“It might be a coincidence that they were there.” Ayden pulled his wife into a hug and kissed the top of her head as soon as he sat beside her.

Teddy-Bear raised their large heads off the floor where they lay in front of the fireplace. “Nothing with demons is a coincidence,” Teddy said with a snort.

Bear shook his head. “Nope. They are smarter than they look. Well, some of them are.”

“If they didn’t know before you got there…” Teddy started.

“…they knew when you arrived,” Bear finished.

Khloe came back into the room with a tray and set it on the coffee table. “I think your source is feeding both sides, Zachary.” Annoyance was evident in her tone. She picked up a package of crackers and handed them to Kalissa then proceeded to pour tea.

“I don’t think so. She’s as much a part of this war as the rest of us.”

“How so?” Kalissa asked.

The doorbell chimed, halting Zach’s reply.

Teddy-Bear rose and followed Ayden to the door.

A few moments later, Ayden returned with Desiree Sanders from the Oceanway Coven.

Khloe stepped closer to the other Divinity with concern etched on her features. “Is everything okay?”

Desiree’s ice-blue gaze scanned the others in the living room. She wrung her gloved hands nervously in front of her. “Yes. Everything is fine.” She looked at Jagger then peered past him to Lex at the kitchen bar. “I want to join the fight.”

Khloe crossed her arms. “Just like that? Have you ever fought a demon?”

“Lo,” Kalissa warned.

“She can fight, or at least she can defend herself.” Lex broke his usual silence and stood from the barstool to move closer to Desiree.

Jagger studied the witch again. She was small, very young—maybe in her early twenties—and very powerful. Lex had picked up on something he couldn’t. By the way Teddy-Bear stood in front of her, the hellhounds did, as well.

Her shoulders dropped. “My ruling elements are Fire and Spirit. I’m also a Porter.”

“Aren’t Porters dangerous?”

“No, Khloe. Considering they all went extinct about three thousand years ago.” It was Zach’s turn to be annoyed.

Kalissa stood and offered her hand to Desiree. “Come in and sit. Everyone has apparently taken their rude-ass pills today.”

Desiree offered a weak smile. “It’s okay. After the attack on my coven, I thought it was time to put my undesirable gifts to use.”

Khloe laughed. “In that case, welcome to the war.” She extended her own offer to sit, but Desiree shook her head and said she had to get back to the coven to help her mother.

After she’d left, Jagger shifted closer to Khloe when she settled into an armchair.
