He raised his eyebrows in surprise, hand going still at the base of his neck. “Nah, I don’t mind.” Daniel took the round rocks from her and looked up. The EZ-Mart wasn’t a particularly tall building, just a one-story. The vampire’s pockets weren’t big enough for the spheres, so he stuck them inside the hem of his t-shirt and tucked it into his waistband. Daniel wiped his hands and jumped. He had enough demon physicality to grab the ledge of the roof, flex his arms and pull himself up.

Once on the roof, he walked along the edge until he was above the mystical doorway. “Right about here?”

He knelt and placed the spheres a meter apart. They were heavy. He didn’t think they’d roll away.
