have these bitches suck their cocks while we pound their asses.”
    A chorus of chuckles rose up from the group.
    Melinda looked again to the fence. It might be possible to climb over. She glanced at Adrienne and made a quick decision. “Run for the fence!” she yelled, and then launched herself at Rafe.
    She barreled into the center of his chest, knocking him back against the wall of the club. Shouts sounded in the alley, punctuated by Adrienne screeching. She saw her friend clawing at one of the other men, but them she was thrown roughly to the ground. Rafe loomed over her, murder in his eyes. He balled his fist, cocked it back….
    And then a terrible roar ripped through the air.
    Everybody stopped moving.
    It finally clicked. There were two bums in the alley. Ramael had disguised himself as a bum. She looked up and saw a winged creature soaring through the air. As it dove at the group of attackers, two of them were jerked suddenly to the ground, clutching at their throats. It looked like they had snakes wrapped around their necks.
    Rafe screamed, but it was cut off as Ramael slammed into him. Melinda heard the terrible sound of claws tearing through fabric and flesh. The demon lifted Rafe into the air, then literally ripped the bastard into pieces. Melinda stared in horror as chunks of the attacker’s body slapped onto the pavement.
    Ramael didn’t waste any time. He latched onto one of the last two attackers and snapped his neck with a quick tug. The final thug tried to run for it, but Adrienne stuck her foot out and tripped him. There was a wet crunch as a tentacle slammed down on his skull.
    And just like that, the fight was over.
    Ramael held the girls’ purses. “We have to get you out of here. We cut a hole in the fence. You can get out that way.”
    Melinda couldn’t find her voice, so she just nodded and pulled herself up on shaking knees.
    Adrienne was already standing. “What the fuck just happened?”
    A tall, lanky man with dark hair emerged from the shadows. “We couldn’t get into the club, but we had no problem getting back here,” he said. “When I saw these guys come out the door, I called my brother. By the time they saw us, we were disguised.”
    Adrienne looked from the man to the winged demon. Her face finally registered shock as she realized what exactly she was seeing. “Oh. My. God.” She wobbled, and then fainted. Fortunately, the stranger caught her before she hit the ground.
    “Can you carry her?” Ramael asked.
    “Yes, brother.”
    “Good.” He turned to Melinda. “We really need to go now.”
    “Okay,” she said, barely above a squeak.
    Ramael saw her distress and shock, and quickly scooped her up into his arms. He lifted into the air and flew over the chainlink fence at the back of the alley. His brother disregarded the ragged hole that had been cut at the bottom of it. Instead, tentacles slid out from beneath his duster and pulled him up and over it with ease. He never once had to shift Adrienne in his arms.
    The headed down a dark street to a parked SUV. As Melinda watched, Ramael’s wings folded, and his face changed into that of a man with dark eyes and a goatee. He looked like a cleaner version of the homeless man to whom she’d given a few dollars.
    “So that was you, at the train station.”
    “It was. I slipped a note into your purse. I assume you didn’t get it.”
    “I did, but it was too late.”
    “I apologize. My brother and I should have intercepted you before you even left your campus. But if there was going to be a confrontation, this was a good enough spot for it.” He bundled her into the back seat, while his brother did the same for Adrienne. Then the two strange men climbed into the front. Ramael took the wheel.
    As the sped off into the night, he said: “This is my brother Mare. He usually prefers the water.”
    Mare turned and smiled at Melinda. He had similar eyes and hair to Ramael, but was clean-shaven. “How do you do?”
    “Okay, I
