"Good," Josie said, shedding the car like a shell. She thought about throwing herself at Jinx and burying her face in his hair, but everything was still too public. It wasn't as if anyone who knew Delilah was going to see them in an underground carpark at this hour, but there were still people, and Josie couldn't let her guard down around people.
One day you won't have to hide, Ko had told her earlier tonight, but that wasn't even it. She wanted to hide, right now. She couldn't even consider the idea of everyone knowing she was a demon, even if they were powerless to stop her. Not tonight. Tonight she was too tired to even want to feel powerful.
She made sure the hotel room door was locked behind her then turned back to Jinx. "I think I just want to sleep," she said. "I just didn't - I wanted you here."
