Forgiven
“He’d expected the place to stay open until much later, but apparently Wednesday evenings weren’t a big night for sales. As he waited he kept thinking of Riley, what it must be like for her to be with the hunters. Though Stewart had said they were treating her well, she had to be frightened. What if they found her guilty of some crime? What did they do to people like her?
Beck ran a hand through his hair. No way I can handle all this. He forced himself to focus on what Stewart required of him. That meant working over the guy who owned the shop across the street.
If a human could be lower than a cockroach, it’d be Roscoe Clement. It didn’t trouble Beck that the perv owned a shop that sold adult videos: people had to make a living somehow. What bugged him was that the guy held a demon-trafficker’s licence. Money had crossed palms for that travesty.
There was another reason the sleaze was on his radar: When Riley had come to sell him a few of the smaller demons, Roscoe had hit on her, tri...ed to talk her into starring in one of his movies.MoreLess
