Sometime after discovering an e-reader loaded with books with a full charge in my purse, the Devil showed up with Icy, who came to me and went to work chewing on my hair. Without taking my eyes off the Western adventure I’d selected for myself, I pet the moose, delighted her coat remained frosty.

Given a few more hours in Australia, I’d appreciate a chance to cool off. “Thank you for the books.”

“I am surrounded with voracious readers at home, and my wife insisted we send you off with some toys.” Lucifer set a laptop bag beside my chair. “I took the liberty of making some key adjustments to your laptop.”

“But it’s new.”

“It’s even newer and better now. Consider it a bribe so you will seriously consider my job offer, which will be issued after you finish your adventure here.” He paused, and he raised a brow. “I find it rather amusing you have chosen an adventure novel.”

“It seemed appropriate, and it’s fun. Won’t people think a moose in Australia is rather weird?”

“Will they think a moose in Australia is weird or that it’s weird there is a moose in Australia with frosty fur, a saddle, a bridle, and all the supplies required to enjoy a camping trip? If they notice her, they will think it is quite weird there is a moose in Australia. Most will not notice her, especially if you are not drawing attention to yourself. You have a tent, a camping stove of hellish origin you should enjoy, a grill for when you want a traditional campfire, a solar charger for all your devices, and a magical battery so you can enjoy your adventure, an assortment of spices, and a selection of hot chocolates and a water purifier so you can enjoy your hot chocolate. There are even a few practitioner items for you. One will summon potable water, as that’s important here. As you’re a capable huntress, there is a rifle and a bow. You have a limitless supply of arrows thanks to a devil of mine who wished to clear out a debt he owes me. He, or one of his minions, will make certain your quiver is always full. And the arrows will be appropriate for the prey you hunt. And, as I am a most generous employer, I’ve included a hunting license for you, a list of animals you can hunt under your license, and the limits of what you can hunt.”

I turned off the device and stowed it back in my new purse so I could give the Devil my undivided attention. “Was the world unaware you’re single before your wife got her hands on you? I cannot imagine a man capable of such consideration remaining single for long.”

“I enjoyed my general freedom for thousands of years.” Lucifer smiled. “It took that long for my perfect little kitten to come around, and she was worth waiting for.”

“I am not sure how you got the reputation you have,” I admitted, inspecting Icy’s new bridle, which was more of a halter, as it lacked a bit.
