standing up his eyes on me. I couldn’t say anything; he was scaring the hell out of me. I just stood there looking at him.
    “Even if I ripped him away the moment he bit her, she would still have died. Each demon have a unique ability in their bites, this one is poison. So Kasadya, do you want to leave females like her to their mercy?” he questioned, taking his eyes off me and walking over to the demon’s body before he then crouched down next to it.
    “No, I never said I wanted anyone dead,” I replied, not knowing where this was coming from.
    “I see. What did you think would happen when they get their hands on humans?” he asked, moving his hand over the demons body, dropping something on it and saying a Latin prayer. Watching him, I saw the demon’s body slowly starting to melt. Okay, so this is how they get rid of the evidence then.
    “Why did you bring me here, and to this?” I gestured to the scene in front of me.
    “To answer your question about why we do what we do. We not only serve to redeem ourselves, but we also protect innocent humans, like her,” he said pointing to the girl. I didn’t look, I couldn’t.
    “Many humans do not deserve our protection, but many do. Will you allow such a vile creature to get his hand on a little girl?”
    “No, of course not!”
    “Then settle the war going on in your head, and get in back in line. This, as you can see, is no joke. This is the life you will face for an eternity, or until you die,” he said, as he slowly walked back to me. I was already pressed up against the wall and couldn’t back away so I had to face him. He stopped and looked at me for a few seconds; I just kept my mouth shut, so not debating this any further.
    “Come, it's already late in our world, you will miss your supper,” he murmured, offering me his hand. I had a hard time convincing myself to take it because his face hadn’t returned to normal yet; or let’s just say to the usual. But I took his hand and found myself in the lobby of the house.
    “Tomorrow you will meet me at my house; I have other training in mind,” he instructed and shifted out.
    Yeah freaking good night to you too! Man he needs to lighten up. Maybe I should ask Kali to work on it for me; nope I think she might just convince him to do even worse. I walked to the grub spot to find everyone already gone. On one of the tables a plate with food was waiting for me, so I walked over and started to eat.
    The girl and demon were running through my head, and at the third bite I totally lost my appetite; so I just got up and left. I walked to our room to find Nanini and Lada already asleep. Were we gone that long? Does time in the human world move so slow, compared to this one?
    Hell I don’t know, but tomorrow I’m asking Vulcan. Getting more details and facts might just be a good thing in the long run. I took a long shower and put on my pj’s, then walked over to my bed. I reached down to pull away the covers, when I saw a beautiful red rose lying on my pillow. Picking it up, I smelled it and knew that it must be from Seth. I missed out on another day with him, bummer. But tomorrow I’ll make sure to get some free time with him, I hope.

 
    Chapter 8
     
    I woke up in the middle of the night, frightened to death. I had another nightmare but this time I was back in that alley, and the girl was Lada. I tried by best to save her, but in the end it was Lada’s dead eyes looking up at me. I woke up with Chax telling me that I was a failure, that her death was my fault.
    Rattled about the dream, I decided to take a stroll in the house and try to clear my mind. Silently I got out of bed, grabbed a jacket and pulled it on; the temperature was almost at freezing point, then turned around and looked at Lada’s bed. She was sleeping peacefully, a small smile on her face; probably dreaming about Lotan.
    I walked out of the room and made my way to the zone, where I planted myself on the couch. In total darkness I sat
