SIXTEEN

Damiano

I know Yves can sense my emotions, and this is one time, I wish he couldn’t. I want to shield him from the fear and concern I have. He doesn’t need it on top of his responsibilities, but knowing just how far Hadrian is willing to go to get what he wants is deeply concerning.

Yves glances at me several times as we walk the club searching for any clue as to where Paolo may have gone, but coming up almost empty until we hear a faint scuffling noise from the rafters near the bar area.

Hale looks up just in time to extend his arms and catch the falling body. “Willow,” he says.

The little demon blinks his big eyes a couple of times, smiling as he focuses on Hale. “I’m not dead. What a relief.”

“What happened?” Yves asks, rushing to the demon as Hale lays him down on a couch.

Willow seems to be adjusting to something as he twitches and blinks several times. Then he sits up, rubbing his forehead.

“There were two vampires here, but nothing like any of you,” Willow says. “I felt their evil, so I attached to one of them.”

“Attached?” I ask. “What does that mean?”

“I can project into people,” Willow says. “It’s harder with supernaturals, and they can sense me, but…” He pauses, shaking his head back and forth. “It would be easier to show you.” He looks at Vivienne. “Can you help?”

The witch looks dubious until she glances at Yves.

“You can trust Willow,” Yves says. “He will not harm us.”

Willow chuckles. “Oh, right. Witches think demons are assholes.”

“No,” Vivienne says. “We’re just told to be cautious because demons can steal powers.”

“But I didn’t steal. I asked. I won’t take a thing. I’m not strong enough right now anyway.”

Vivienne nods, offering her hand to the small man. She tilts her head and after a moment her eyelids flutter. “Truth. Your intention is truth.”

“Yes,” Willow says. “Here goes.”

Then the little demon’s body stiffens like a board, and he vibrates. Vivienne reacts by throwing her head back, and before us, a scene takes place as if we’re watching a movie.

Two men walk through the club, unnoticed at first until one of them, an unusually tall man with bright red hair, extends his arm, and thick black fog rolls across the club. People on the dance floor start dropping.

We watch Hale and Tiago rush toward the men, only to fall silent, frozen like statues when the men touch their foreheads. Willow launches through the fog, smacking into the chest of one of them, an average height black man. The man struggles with the demon’s possession while the other man continues stalking the club.

“Come on, Levi,” the unpossessed vampire yells. “Find the one we need or he’ll have our heads.”

“Something is inside me, Max,” Levi says, clawing at his own chest. “It hurts.”

“Hadrian’s teeth shredding your veins will hurt more,” Max says, shoving Levi’s arm.

Levi, still obviously uncomfortable, walks on, shoving tables and chairs out of the way while Max scales the walls.
