Even though he was completely reeling from his niece’s endless list of secret identities p>
As her uncle, even if she was Demon, he refused to just hide behind her.
He wouldn’t let her step into danger on his watch.
Serena glanced toward the gunfire inside the warehouse.
She didn’t stop him. “Go ahead p>
Jaxon should have arrived by now.
The Phantom Hornets were done for; they couldn’t turn the tide now.
If Douglas wanted to join the fun, let him.
Douglas quickly regrouped with his men and stormed the facility.

Even paralyzing fear of Demon couldn’t completely break him.
They were going to die anyway!
Survival instinct kicked in. They had to fight. Maybe they could break through.
