“They’re driving me out of my goddamn mind!” Amon shouted. “I need some peace, just for a while.”

“So, what? You want us to babysit them?” Griffin asked, a smirk on his face. I rolled my eyes. Now was not the time for jokes. We were there for a reason, and it was finally our chance to get some assistance with Samara.

Fortunately, Amon chuckled and wasn’t offended. “I wish. They’re more than you can handle. No, I’d like to put them to sleep for a while. Get some peace around here.”

I understood where he was coming from. In the short time we’d been there, they’d interrupted numerous times, were loud and distracting, and were basically like a bunch of toddlers running around doing adult things. No wonder the guy wanted some peace. I babysat for Tristan once, and his pups weren’t half as bad as these demons.

“Okay, so rock them to sleep and sing a nursery rhyme?” Griffin asked. I wish that sarcastic bastard would shut up before he pissed off Amon.

Being in another realm meant we were to behave by other customs. Considering I hadn’t a clue what demons considered customary, I didn’t want to risk saying the wrong thing. Griffin, on the other hand, wouldn’t shut up.

“Thanks, but no,” Amon answered. “I’d like you to visit the Underworld and ask Thanat, the ruler of the Underworld, to kill them for a bit.”

“Kill them?” Ember asked, intrigued—and a little put off—by the request. “You want us to kill your friends, essentially?”

Amon glanced at two demons too enraptured by their own sexual acts to notice how loud they were. His eyes drifted to the coffee table, surrounded by a small group that was gambling over a card game. He looked back at us and sighed.

“Demons cannot technically be killed. It would only put them into a deep sleep until I’m ready for them to return in a few decades. Then, they can leave the Underworld and return to gambling and sex.”

“So, wait,” Emily asked, leaning forward. “This isn’t the Underworld?”

Amon laughed and pointed to Emily. “I like you. You’re funny.”

“Uhm, thanks?” Emily’s expression held so much confusion. I loved the way her nose crinkled, and her eyebrows pulled in—it was cute.

“Of course, this isn’t the Underworld! The Underworld is for souls of the deceased but is different than the Sky Empire.” She looked at him strangely, so he elaborated. “Or as your people call it, Heaven. The Sky Empire is also for the deceased, but unlike the Underworld, it is not dark and depressing. It’s filled with light and happiness. Though, you don’t obtain such by ‘being good,” he quoted with his fingers. “It’s not the same Heaven that humans believe.”

I stood from my chair and said, “If we’re going to the Underworld, I need to call Sam. I haven’t spoken to him since we left, and there’s a lot to catch him up on. Is there anywhere I can speak to him in private without so much moaning?” I asked, glancing at the couple who were nearly naked on the carpet in front of the fire.
