“He’s a baby. That would be just wrong.” Oakley says this like it’s the most obvious reason in the world.
“The devil has morals?” I pull a face, snorting.
“Strict ones.” Oak replies, deadly serious. “You’re lucky he does, otherwise right now you’d be working on your tan and preparing for your wedding.”

“Can we stop it?”
“Afraid not. Don’t worry about it, sweetheart.”
“Don’t worry! My puppy is going to be possessed by a demon in twelve months time and you’re telling me NOT TO WORRY?!”
“I’m a demon,” he replies quietly. “I’m not so bad.”

“Ok, see you in the morning, love,” Rowan says, stepping forward and taking my keys from me. “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
“I’d do it again, sweetheart. I’d sell every single one of our souls to keep you safe, so don’t expect an apology from me,” Oakley tells me.
“Babe, stay safe. I might never let you out of my sight again,” Ash warns with a kiss to my forehead.
And then they’re gone, the car door closing, and it’s just me, Linden and the sleeping pup alone in the dark.
