"Why isn't it working" I clutch Bella and shake her.

" babes, open your eyes, don't joke like this, please".

Demon guy squats beside me and examines her.

"We can still get her to a hospital Jas" I turn to Jason but he doesn't seem to hear me, he has a faraway look in his eyes.

I turn to the demon guy and he is still watching her.

"It's going to work," he says "it has to, she can't die".

Just then, Bella groans and rolls on her side, holding her head.

I let out a relieved breath letting myself sit on the ground.

I hear Jason let out a quiet "Fuck, thank you", the demon guy moves backward gripping his hair with both hands, relief washing off him.

Bella sits up and stares at me for a while before turning towards the demon guy

" Thank you," she says to him.

He takes a step forward and makes a small bow.

"It's my duty to serve you" he responds.
