arms, I might have enjoyed the peace and the solitude these woods had to offer with nothing but chirping birds and scurrying animals foraging for food.
     
    Flynn was still on the deck when I made it back.  The pack was long gone.
     
    “Open the door,” I demanded, when I made my way up the steps.
     
    The guy moved quickly to open the door and I made my way through.  “What the hell happened?” he asked animatedly.
     
    Draping her slight body on the sofa, I checked her vitals again hoping I didn’t do any further damage by moving her. “I found her like this,” I said, leaning over her to listen for breath.
     
    “Is she alive?” he asked, worry in his voice.
     
    My hand on her wrist again, I silently counted the beats of her heart. “Yes.”
     
    “You think she’s the demon they were talking about?” he asked.  I couldn’t see him, but I felt him hovering over me.
     
    My head was back listening for the strength of her breathing. “I don’t know.”  Just because we were supernatural beings didn’t mean that we could tell each other by sight or even smell.  “I need to heal her.”

    “Wait,” I said to him.  The guy was a bleeding heart but we didn’t know who or what this girl was.
     
    “What do you mean wait?” he asked, with narrowed eyes.
     
    Throwing the guy my duh look, I said, “We need to think about this first.  She could be dangerous.”
     
    “Dangerous,” he said, as if that were a joke. “You and I are dangerous, so she’s outnumbered.”
     
    “Did you, like, rescue her?” I asked.
     
    Finally, I saw his brain kicking in. “No,” he said.
     
    I didn’t give him time to think. “So maybe someone got away from her.  I mean if someone tried to kill her, they could have finished the job.”
     
    Thinking, he blinked a few times.  “What if the shifters scared her attacker away?”
     
    Tilting my head from side to side, I couldn’t argue the point. “Chris said they felt a demonic presence.”
     
    “Even if she’s a demon it doesn’t make her evil.  I mean look at you.  You’re not evil,” he said, with a straight face.
     
    Shaking my head, I said, “And you’re an angel but that doesn’t make you good.” His eyes flashed. Quickly, I added, “I’m not saying you aren’t good, but you’re no saint.”
     
    He nodded and I breathed a sigh. “Either way, I can’t just let her die,” he said.
     
    “You said she’s breathing.  If she’s a demon won’t she heal?” I asked him, with my arm holding him back from her.
     
    “And what if she’s human,” he said and then pushed me aside.  Next thing I knew, the glowy thing with his hands lit up her head.
     
    Damn. “I’ll go get some towels or something,” I said, getting to my feet.  It wasn’t like I wanted the girl to die, but I wanted to be smart about it.
     
    “Get some bleach,” he said.
     
    Stopping mid stride I turn back to the guy. “What the hell for?” I asked.
     
    “The scent of the blood in case the shifters come back,” he said.
     
    Heading to my destination, I wondered if Luke thought he’d found a lost puppy he could somehow keep. He was protecting her scent from them. I mean from what I saw she was cute.  But cute didn’t always mean cuddly.  It could very well mean deadly.
     
     
     

 
    Chapter Six - Luke
     
     
     
     
    Flynn was down the hall and out of sight when I was done.  My light faded back into me and I watched the girl's eyes flutter open around a smattering of freckles.  Her eyes, evergreen like the forest we just left, found mine.  She leaned her upper body so fast cowering against the back of the couch for a second.  Her long golden hair, was so striking, I want to put my hands on it.  There was just something intoxicating about the girl, I feel drunk just looking at her.
     
    Moving slowly with an open palmed hand, to signal to her I meant her no harm, I stepped back resting when my
