Chapter Six

Suddenly, Eleanor was in Cam’s arms. She buried her face against his chest and cried quietly as the pain consumed her. After a few minutes, their low voices finally penetrated the fog.

“You saw the man in her memory?” Sel asked.

“Yes,” Cam replied. “It was Armoros in its human guise. It looked exactly as we last saw it. Only the clothes were different.”

“Y-you were in my head?”

“Not exactly. The memory was so strong it kind of projected to us because we were open to receiving your thoughts.”

“Who is he? Who is Armoros?”

“A demon, not a man,” Uri said. “We usually refer to Armoros as an it.”

She shuddered against Cam. “He was a demon? I’m not surprised.”

“We’ve run into him in the past and banished him a few months ago. He’s stuck in his hell realm for a while longer before he should have the strength to try coming through again.”

That didn’t ease her fear. “So he can come back?”

The men gave her worried looks, and Cam nodded. “Unfortunately, yes. Permanently killing a demon takes a level of strength very few possess.”

“And now there are only five of you, right?”

He hesitated. “Yes. Rafe and Zerach are fallen, which means they no longer have all of their angelic powers. We haven’t exactly tested it yet, but we’re pretty sure that means their ability to banish demons as well.”

She rested her head against him with a sigh as defeat drained her strength.

“That doesn’t mean it absolutely can’t be done,” Sel said. “There are other angels out there. Some of them will help us fight any higher-level demons that cross over.”

“But are there enough?” she asked.

No one responded.

She released a frustrated growl and sat up. “So now what? What the hell is going on?”

“We’re not sure,” Uri replied. “But having a mid-level demon after you means Armoros probably sent it.”

“You’d never seen it before? That human guise it used?” Sel asked.

Even as she thought it over, she shook her head. “I don’t think so, but there’s really no way to be certain. I remember what happened at the compound but have forgotten most of the faces of the people who lived there. I guess it’s possible he was one of them.”

“We can search your memories for you,” Sel said.

She jerked slightly in surprise, and Cam tightened his grip. “You can?” she asked. “That far back?”

The men nodded. Cam ran his hands up and down her arms to soothe her unease, but she trembled at the thought of that invasion.

“We’ll only do so if you allow it,” he said. “I promise, it’s entirely up to you.”

Wanting to determine his sincerity, she looked him in the eyes. He held her gaze, and she found what she sought. By now she trusted that Cam would never put her in harm’s way or purposely do anything to upset her. Being an angel, he wasn’t programmed that way. She shuddered then gave a slight nod.

He wrapped his arms around her. “You won’t feel a thing.”

It was painless and silent.
