“She was thinking about Samael—as she had been since he left the apartment yesterday afternoon—and nothing else.
She’d had a late-night talk with Sally, who told her she should take a day or two off to relax and readjust, but she refused. She didn’t have the heart to tell her roomie about what had happened to Mittens. She cleaned up the mess, putting what was left of poor old Mittens into the Dumpster. After she scrubbed the tub with bleach, the flies didn’t return.
She hoped Sally would assume her cat had gotten out of the apartment somehow and would eventually find her way back home. Claire didn’t want to take time off because her work would just pile up, and Marty, her boss, would give her a ration of shit about getting orders and bids done and sent out correctly and on time.
She was sitting at her desk in her windowless office that was the size of a broom closet and staring unfocused at her computer screen when her cell phone in her purse rang. She jumped, grabbing the phone from h...er purse, her heart leaping as she thought…hoped…prayed— How can you pray for a demon?MoreLess
