that came out better than I thought! I sound a little shaky but confident all at once.
He looks me over skeptically and then looks at Alana. “The doll?” he asks with a little annoyance in his voice.
“...is right here,” I answer, summoning Annie in my hand.
“Very well, go to the office and wait there until I get the items we need for the spell. And do not let the Witch out of your sight or it will be the last thing you ever do,” he says, sounding like the ‘master’ he was. Threats and demands is all these freaking monsters know how to do.

I make my way to the office and find John standing there, looking at me. His face betrays him for a brief second as he shows that he is impressed- but it quickly changes into something I can’t recognize. “Josiah” I say in a way of greeting that I have noticed these Demons do a lot.
He looks at me briefly and then responds with my name. “Samuel.” He looks over at Alana. “Why did you bring the Witch here? She’s going to ruin everything,” he growls at me angrily.
I pull on her arm a little aggressively for dramatic effect and she tumbles over like we rehearsed. “I brought the Witch because the Witch inside of this body,” indicating myself and showing clear disgust, “is dead. I wanted to be sure we had enough power to do the spell so I took the next strongest in the Covenant. Plus, when she sees her mate she will not want to kill him so I figured she was our best shot at keeping you alive as well as getting the powers from the fucking doll,” I growl back at him, but not the way I intended. My Wolf is surfacing- I have to push her down so we won't get busted.
Josiah buys it, though. He nods his head and turns back to the wall he was looking at. I don’t bother trying to talk to him after that; instead, I use the potion to separate him from John while he's unfocused and then go for the kill with the last potion. He bursts into flames before he even knows what is happening. I go over to John and heal him quickly before Jeffrey comes back. I hear him coming so I quickly tie Alana’s hands together with a wave of my hands from where I stand next to John.
But, even though we were all prepared for the worst, there is no way I could have been prepared for what comes into this small office when he opens the door.

I'm standing with the rest of the group when I realize what a stupid idea Rebecca had. Why would she try to kill that Demon when she still needed to get out of there alive? The thing that gets to me the most is that I am no longer on a suicide mission. Yashira, with her beautiful brown eyes, short brown hair, and snarky mouth, keeps creeping into my mind. I have to believe that she is my mate. I can’t get her out of my head and leaving her to go to my own room last night tore at me to a point that I was ready to bang on her door and demand that she sleeps in my room.
Trying not to be barbaric I forced myself to stay in my room, although I was up pacing back and forth thinking of anything to get me to calm down. I’ve never felt this need to be near someone before. Now, here I am, standing close to her and trying to act as if nothing has changed.
She and her sister are talking, but I'm not paying much attention; I keep getting spurts of visions from Rebecca and I can’t keep it long enough to see what is happening. Sebastian must have sensed my freak-out because he comes over to me.
“We need to go. Now!” he says to the us. “They are in serious danger.”
That was all he had to say for me to take off. Before going, I grab Yashira and she grabs Milissa, expecting me to take her into battle with me. That's fine as long as she is close enough for me to protect her, if necessary.
When we arrive in the bowling alley I can’t believe what I see. I stand in front of both Yashira and Milissa to protect them from the onslaught of Demons that are pouring through some type of portal in the wall in the back of the
