would be taken away from your life and you would never get the opportunity to grow up,” I say as I grab Alex’s plate and return them to the kitchen.
“Have you thought about asking his evilness for help in this matter?” Alex asks.
I should have, but I try not to turn to Ben for everything. “Ben, can you hear me?” I say aloud. I haven’t really summoned him before, so I am not sure what I have to do.
“You have reached Benjalarico's voicemail. He is not available at this moment in time. If you want to leave a message, tough titties. If this is my pretty little baby maker and you are ready to share a night with me, tickle your palm and I will be right there,” a computerized woman’s voice echoes through the apartment.
“I guess you will have to try him later. I don’t think we are desperate enough for you to ‘tickle your palm’.”
“I concur. Is everyone coming with me? I take it is Jonas’ turn in the sleeping cycle.” I start wandering towards my bedroom to get dressed. Without a lot of choices in my wardrobe, I quickly put my knives, guns, and clothing on.
“Yes, Jonas will be up in a couple of hours to keep an eye on you. I am going to go hit up my contacts for some anti-succubus spray. If she isn't able to get to Sebastian, she may try other methods to get to him.”
Like coming after me. If I knew how to eradicate the bitch, I would welcome the confrontation. Sadly, I don’t currently even know how to banish her ass. It is the first item on my list of things to do at the office today.
“Sounds like a plan. If you get bored, come keep me company,” I say giving him a quick kiss on my way to get Clyde’s leash.
“Thanks for my wake up gift. I will return the favor in the near future.”
“And just maybe I will let you,” I reply. Jake and Walt join me and Demon Dog in the elevator and we are off for a little walk to ParaNorm Inc.

After letting Clyde water three nearby buildings, we arrive at our destination. There is a bouquet of flowers sitting outside of my door and I am not amused. If they were from Sebastian or Alex, they would be inside the building. I am not sure how they work that out, but each time they have sent flowers they were sitting on my desk waiting for me.
“Jake, do you mind grabbing those?” I ask while I fish my keys out of my pocket. I don’t even want to touch the flowers. They are dark purple roses that would greatly appeal to me if they were from the proper individual.
“Two guesses whom they are from,” he replies after getting a good look at them.
“No one important,” I say making my way into my office. I am here to do research, not worry about flowers.
I sit down and start my computer. I want to get a look at what the Collective has on Candace. I hope there is more information on her than there was Ben. After I hack into the system, I am rewarded with a more thorough biography.
Name: Candace
Race: Demon
Subspecies: Succubus
Summoning name: Krindlecane
Background: Candace is a mid-level succubus that is well known for keeping her victims in her web until they are dead. She prefers male targets, but has been known to go after exceptionally strong female prey. She can be protected against with a simple charm that any low level witch can cast.
Current location: Emerald Town
Aliases: Candy and CeCe
Associates: Unknown
Distinguishing features: She is able to change her appearance, but tends to take the guise of a tall blonde. She has the mark of a raven just above her belly button.
I don’t really like the raven being involved. That is Ben’s symbol and if she is one of his minions, I am going to be extremely pissed at him.
“You have a visitor approaching at a fast clip,” Jake announces to snap me out of my rapidly approaching fit.
I look up and can see Will walking in the door. I don’t want to know how he found me. “I think you made a wrong turn somewhere, mortal.” I glance down to
