After four more pages about that departure – these types of books never got to the good part quickly – there was a multi-page list of angels who’d sided with Lucifer against the Almighty. Riley traced down it until she found the one who’d tried to steal her soul

Ori: an angel of the higher realm known for charm and seduction.

‘Tel me about it.’

It went to say that once Ori had taken residence in Hel he served as an agent of retribution, executing those who chalenged Lucifer’s authority. That talied with his claim of why he was in Atlanta. Maybe not everything Ori told her was a lie.

Further down on the page she found:

Sartael (also known as Satarel): a devious archangel who works hidden deceits. Said to be one of the prime movers behind the Fall of Lucifer. Is known

for corrupting the minds of mortals and bending them to his will.

Tucking the afghan tighter round her legs, Riley dug into the text to learn more about the angel who had done his best to destroy her life.

The next morning brought thick Scottish oatmeal, bacon, more mushrooms, tomatoes and hot scones. If I stay here much longer, I’ll have to buy larger jeans.

Master Stewart was eyeing the newspaper, muttering under his breath every now and then. When he looked up at Riley, the frown was so deep she figured she’d

done something wrong.

‘What?’ she asked, lowering her spoon.

‘How’s yer classes goin’?’

‘Fine. I got an A on my maths homework and aced a test on the Civil War.’

A grunt. ‘Did ya talk ta the red-haired reporter?’

What? He’d done it again – changing topics midstream. ‘No, I did not talk to that skank.’

‘Ah, wel, she’s gettin’ creative then.’ He shoved the newspaper across the table. When Riley saw the headline, her spoon dropped on her plate with a clatter. The photograph made her heart clench: an injured Beck hunched over in a street that had to be in Demon Central. She checked out the headline.

Trapper Injured During Run – Is the Guild Jinxed?

The article recounted Justine’s version of how Beck and Jackson had found themselves ‘outmatched’ by a Three. At no time did she indicate she’d been at the root of the problem.

‘This is total crap. Beck wouldn’t have got hurt if she hadn’t been there. He was playing hero. He always does that.’

Stewart nodded thoughtfuly. ‘Third paragraph down.’

Riley hunted for the text and felt her jaw clench. There was a quote from an unnamed source that the Guild was cursed because they’d alowed a female in their

ranks. Riley jerked her head up, her blood boiling. ‘Do they realy think that?’ she demanded.

‘Some. Like havin’ a woman on a ship. Same thing.’

Riley shoved the paper away in disgust.

‘It’s only gonna get worse,’ the master warned. ‘Prepare yerself for that.’

She nodded grimly and went back to her oatmeal. If she ever saw Justine Armando again, it wasn’t going to be pretty.

Somewhere in the house a celphone rang and then footsteps approached as Harper returned to the kitchen.
