O’Toole House Chapter 24

Gabriella hadn’t talked to her cousin Manny in probably a year, but you would think it was yesterday with the way he greeted her when she called. “That frigging Foundation,” Manny said with a laugh when she explained what she needed from him. “I don’t know how you and James do it. So listen, I’m […]

Nick Bana had postponed the meeting, to Gabriella’s utter disbelief. He had apparently said something about a work conflict, as though he wasn’t in danger of having his immortal soul claimed by a demon in just a few days. This conversation had happened first thing in the morning, so Gabriella had thankfully missed the explosion […]

The sound of a key in the lock snapped Gabriella out of a dream as she sat up with a gasp. At the door, Amelia also took a startled step backward. “Sorry!” she said. “Is James up?” “I have no idea,” Gabriella admitted, blinking as the room around James’s couch came into focus. “I just […]

“Gab, I need to talk to you.” James had actually been the one to text her. And she hated that tiny little shiver that went through her when he did, remembering that text to Bradley. But that one wasn’t him and it was over. So when he’d asked her if they could talk after work, […]

Madelyn left for Brazil the next morning. Gabriella didn’t blame Madelyn for how anxious she was about it, she would be asking the same questions if this had happened right before she was about to leave the country for a week. “Yes, you should go,” Amelia had said the day before when Madelyn was wrapping […]

When she got back to headquarters the day before, Amelia told her that she’d spoken to McGovern and he could get her into the archives in the morning.

O’Toole House Chapter 18

Gabriella ended up spending the night. James didn’t come back out of his room, but she was tired enough to fall asleep on the couch after a little while, waking up to silence a few times during the night. She woke up for good at seven and was encouraged to see James in the kitchen, […]

James actually opened the door this time when Gabriella knocked. “Hi,” she greeted cheerfully.  “Hey.” He didn’t move out of the doorway. “You don’t have to stay,” he said. “I’m fine.” No he wasn’t. Even if he was sober right now, he still looked like hell. But the rejection stopped her short despite everything.  “Do […]

Gabriella was pretty certain that Father McEnerney was going to get them thrown out of the library study room. “A DEMON DEAL?” he demanded, standing next to Nick Bana’s seat and towering over him with righteous fury. “You made a FUCKING DEMON DEAL?” She’d never heard him swear before. And based on the look on […]

Amelia looked completely worn out when they got back to headquarters a little while later. “Just tell me what he said,” she told Gabriella and Bradley as they shrugged off their coats. Gabriella played the tape for her, wincing again at each new detail Nick Bana provided. Amelia’s face was set in anger and exhaustion […]
