Cole looked up at her with pleading eyes. She was unsure why.

Smack!

Alexis saw those preverbal stars people always talk about. This man whacked her hard across the face and her body was still registering it. Tears threatened, but she fought them off. She refused to show anything to these brutal men.

"What I want is your ring. I'm a merchant and I want to sell it," he said with an excruciating grip on her chin. "Boss wants you for something else."

She winced under his hold, but refused to let him get under her skin. She opened her mouth, as if to say something. Perhaps she could use her power on him.

"Uh, uh, uh, beautiful, I have protection from your soul sucking power," he said and pulled out a medallion. It was a round onyx stone, imbedded into an intricately carved piece of silver, with snakes, both eating each others tails.

She wanted to use her siren powers, something she figured they weren't aware of, but there were too many of them. Two goons hung at the door, the demon from earlier and another that had actual horns protruding from his head. The demons' skin was tinged orange like a cantaloupe. She shuddered at his physical appearance.

Plus there was Cole. She still wasn't sure about him. _Was he a friend or foe? Why do I care?_ She let out a large breath of air, irritated at her concern for him. His blue denim shirt was now colored with the red dirt and open. It exposed his chest which was riddled with many scars, including the ones she'd inflicted earlier with her nails. _Hmm, so he's not a death dealer? What is he?_

The man with the horns waltzed across the room with eerie stealth and took Cole off the floor with an astonishing amount of strength. He had a pair of silver cuffs with long stakes in one hand.

"Be still or I'll knock your hand into a pancake," his words came out like a rumbling mass of steel.
