Ro and I exchanged a look.
"What?" Drio said.
"Satan wants to knock me up." I filled them in on what had happened.
"You didn't think to mention this yesterday?" Leo said.
"I wasn't thinking clearly. Plus, I really wanted to get laid."
Drio rolled his eyes. "Get behind wards. Really fucking strong ones."
"I'm not going to cower and hide. There's too much to deal with." I glanced at the "Fuck Cancer" bracelet. "After the demon dark web, what happened next?"
"I tried the witches," Leo said. "Dr. Gelman."
My smile caught and died. "You mean Rivka." I pressed my fist to my lips. "I missed Esther's funeral."
"Yeah. I'm sorry, Nee."
I opened my mouth to mumble some platitude of thanks, but what came out was a roared shriek. She'd died on my watch and I hadn't even been there to pay my final respects. I could tell myself that neither were my fault until I was blue in the face, but it was a cold fucking comfort. I'd failed her.
