how to design a demon detector, ask
my dad. He designed the original systems, but as long as you are
still looking for connections to a high king demon, you will be
finding people who can be influenced by blood.”
    “And that is no
longer the case with you.”
    “Nope. There
was a spell and ritual that managed to release all of my family
line from the high king’s influence. From his blood to my blood and
beyond, we are now free.”
    Captain
Matheson pinched the bridge of his nose. “I do not want to know
what was involved in that particular manoeuvre, do I?”
    “Not
particularly. Simply know that my father, mother and myself are no
longer susceptible to demon influence, though my father and I may
manifest the physical traits now and then.”
    Matheson looked
at her partners. “You all are okay with this?”
    They looked at
each other and shrugged before stating, “Yes.”
    Benny didn’t
smirk, though she did want to. She straightened her shoulders.
    Captain
Matheson inhaled, “Well, as you are our only mage-equipped team,
you will have to take over the crossover calls. The seers have been
going crazy, and we think another wave is building. The city is on
alert.”
    Benny leaned
forward. “Is there any idea of the location of the incoming
wave?”
    Matheson
grimaced. “We don’t know where, we don’t know when, we just know it
is close in all respects. It is why we needed you back so quickly.
We need you on duty when and if it happens on a night shift.”
    Argyle nodded.
“Right. Not a problem.”
    Benny looked at
him with her brows raised. “Glad you have confidence, Argyle.”
    The other two
laughed.
    Matheson’s
expression turned from tense to amazed. “You are all bound
together.” He thudded into his chair again, obviously picking up on
the mingled scents through is senses.
    Benny shrugged.
“My contract says we could, so we did.”
    Tremble
chuckled. “I am sure that you will be invited to the wedding.”
    The captain
leaned back. “So, that kind of binding.”
    Benny nodded.
“Yes, Captain. Are we cleared for duty this evening?”
    “Yes. By the
way, Argyle, I am surprised to see you here so early.”
    Argyle got to
his feet. “Benny has brought light back to my life, in several
ways. My new tolerance for sunlight is one of them.”
    The rest of
them got to their feet, and the captain remained seated. “Have a
good shift.”
    They all nodded
and filed out of the boardroom.
    Smith signed
out the vehicle, and they all signed out a black bag filled with
replacement clothing and, for the guys, additional weaponry.
    Benny had her
singular weapon tucked into the top of her boot. The folds of her
trousers hid the small, narrow hilt and grip.
    She put her bag
next to theirs in the back of the SUV, and she headed for the rear
seat on the driver’s side.
    Smith stopped
her. “Agent Ganger, you are going to be manning the computer.”
    She grinned and
headed for the front passenger seat, buckling in. The computer was
on a support, and she opened it up, searching the system for any
active calls.
    Smith was
smiling at her.
    She sighed.
“Nothing yet. Drive. Head for the waterfront. It usually goes off
as soon as the sun goes down.”
    “Yes, Agent
Ganger.”
    He backed out
of the parking spot and headed to the waterfront. When the ping
came, they were almost on top of it.
    “Agatha’s Charm
School. They have an incursion.”
    He hit the gas
and came to a halt in front of one of the weather-beaten buildings
on the waterfront.
    She slipped in
an earpiece and listened to the emergency call. “Two eagle shifters
are looking for money and protection spells. The owner is confined
in her office.”
    Smith and
Argyle moved quickly, Benny unbuckled and kept listening to the
call. The woman was panicked. The shifters had threatened to come
in and abuse her if they didn’t find what they sought.
    She left the
car and spoke to Tremble. “I am going in for the shopkeeper.”
    He nodded and
followed her.
