Chapter Four

Neil and I watched the priest run down the hall, but Daniel never took his eyes off the figures in the sanctuary.

“Where is he going?” Neil asked.

“I think he’s going anywhere they’re not.” I turned and looked into the sanctuary, wondering what the hell had the priest so spooked.

Daniel sighed, seemingly resigned to whatever was going to happen. “Are you sure you want to do this? You’re sure she’s worth it? Sarah did shoot you.”

I remembered. It hurt like hell, but nothing hurt more than the look on her face as the demon sank his claws into her body and pulled her to Hell. It might have been different if I thought she was comfortably dead, but that’s not the way demon contracts work. There’s no parole and no end to time served. Death would have been acceptable, but what Sarah had to endure, I couldn’t live with.

“I’m sure.” I didn’t see or sense whatever had the boys in a tizzy, and I decided to let ignorance be bliss. Or rather bravado. With my trusty handgun snug against my body, I strode down the aisle toward the nice suburban couple who scared the shit out of my badass boys.

Daniel cursed behind me, but he and Neil caught up easily. Daniel would prefer I follow behind him, but I wasn’t that girl.

“Hello,” I said as the female made a move to meet me.

She stepped into a shaft of light, and I had to stop. Had I thought she seemed bland from a distance? She was lovely. Blonde, with alabaster skin that practically glowed, she was delicate and fragile and everything feminine. She smiled gently, and I had a sudden urge to please her, to do whatever she requested so I could keep that smile on her face.

“What the hell are you?” My question came out harsher than I’d intended. I didn’t like the way she made me feel. If I hadn’t had so much experience with magic, I probably would have wondered if I was maybe more bi-curious than I imagined, but I knew what this was. This was a strong, well-placed glamour. It wasn’t crazy and out of control like Dev could get, so I didn’t beg for her love or anything, but it was there. She obviously wanted me able to think, but she definitely wanted me willing.

A glorious smile crossed her face, lighting up the room. “I’m so pleased to meet you. I am Felicity Day, and this is my brother, Oliver.”

I forced my eyes away from the shining beauty and glanced at Oliver Day. He didn’t give a shit whether I was willing or not. He scowled as though he disapproved of the entire meeting. I had zero desire to please him, so I knew he wasn’t working any mojo on me.

“If you don’t turn down the glamour, I’m going to pick up my wife and leave here, and there won’t be anything you can do about it.” Daniel put a hand on my shoulder as though he would pull me away at any moment.
