She began to shake.
"I'm going to kill your lover, sweetheart," the evil voice told her. "The Shadow Man will die. Your brother will die. I've let you all live for too long. And then, when he is finished, I will take you for myself just like I did when you were younger. Do you remember?"
Bile rose in her stomach, climbing her throat. She swallowed it down, reminding herself she wasn't that scared little girl anymore, tat she was a grown woman, one who had just murdered one of her demons.
"Wrong number," she said, before hanging up the phone. She looked around the little place, noticing some people looking her way but unable to discern if it was dangerous. There were too many people.
She needed to get out.
Paying for the untouched order, she ran outside the shop and hailed a cab, giving him the name of the hotel.
As the city flew by, she closed her eyes, giving herself a moment of respite before everything crashed around her again.
