react. I felt myself drop out of stealth as all my focus channeled into avoiding the demon’s attack. I spun out of reach, tossing the dagger from my right hand into the spikey-haired demon’s heart and simultaneously throwing the second dagger into the right eye of the other demon, who had black hair cut in a military style. It all happened so fast they never saw me coming. As soon as the first dagger left my hand, I replaced it with the sword that had appeared instantly on my back, and before I even finished spinning away from the first demon, I took his head with me. The blade was so sharp, it was a few seconds before the first drop of blood fell, but once it did, it poured.
    I wiped the sword against my jeans and sheathed it. Then I walked to the military haircut demon and removed the dagger from his eye. I took the dagger and pierced his heart just for good measure, and then I did the same to the first demon. I saved spikey hair for last so that I could keep him for questioning before I killed him. I wanted to know exactly what they knew and why everyone seemed to be after this kid. As I reached him, I unsheathed the sword from my back once again and used my left hand to remove the dagger from his chest. As soon as the blade was no longer in his heart, he tried to jump up, but I quickly stomped his chest with my right foot and held him down.
    “Start talking!” I demanded as I placed the tip of my sword to his eye, just short of touching it.
    “I don’t know anything,” he sputtered. “All we were told was to find the boy and bring him back alive and unharmed.”
    “You sure that’s all you know, demon?”
    His eyes darted from me, to the other demons, and back to me. “The only other thing I know . . . ” he started to say, but suddenly his eyes opened wide in fear and his body went rigid. “NO!” he screamed. “Please not that, please!” He was pleading to someone—and it was not me. With my boot still tight to his chest, his unyielding body suddenly went slack and his cries ceased instantly. Startled, I removed my foot and looked at him in confusion. Then, without warning, he abruptly reached for a gun that was in the front of his jeans and pulled the trigger.
    He missed his mark the first time, hitting my shoulder, but he didn’t miss it the second. Before I could even react to the bullet striking my heart, he pulled the gun to his own head with jerky unnatural movements and pulled the trigger. It’s not usually so easy to kill demons, but these were baby demons.
    “Shit!” I said with feeling before I vanished and emerged back into the suite, where Colton was waiting for me. I hate getting shot!
    “Dammit, Belleeza! One minute longer and I was coming after you. You were supposed to . . .” Colton saw my face and the bloodstains. “Shit, what happened? I knew I shouldn’t have let you go without me! I can’t even heal you yet!”
    “Why? What would you have done—had a powwow catching up with your old demon pals?” I huffed as Colton eased me into a dining-room chair.
    “Let me have a look,” he said, ignoring my jab. He grabbed my now blood-red tank top and ripped it from top to bottom, revealing the bullet lodged between my breasts.
    “Anyway, I handled it. Just give me something to bite on and rip the damn bullet out before I heal with it in there. The one in my shoulder is already healing.”
    I winced as he used his fingers to see how deep the wound was. “The demons never would have seen me coming if it wasn’t for the one having some kind of stealth-proof nose. Speaking of which, contact Evangelina and tell her we need a clean-up crew.”
    Colton’s eyes widened. “He could smell you?” He must have called for Evangelina because I heard him say something along the lines of “no, it’s not necessary” and “you know she’ll refuse the help anyway.” I grinned, knowing Evangelina was probably insisting they call a healer. She more than likely huffed and vanished, knowing
