The meeting.
Kelvin could hardly believe all of this.
Zafira, the succubus he has come to think of as his friend, once held the fate of humanity in the palm of her hand.
By sparing someone who resembled her lover, she also spared us all.
No. It was Jerome who not only saved humanity from Zafira, but also Zafira from herself.
The migraine Kelvin felt in his apartment before being transported here returned.
His ears rang and his vision blurred.
“Aargh!” he yelled as he dropped to his knees,
holding his ears.
The earth shook, cracks formed in the ground.
Everything shattered once more, even the demons
and angels that had gathered to decide humanity’s fate.
Nothing remained but a black void and the pain in
Kelvin’s skull.
His weightless body tumbled until pain claimed his consciousness.

time for handing the human trafficking case back
to Kelvin, given what happened at the nightclub.
