Merlin looked at the infant for a moment longer. "Perhaps an Earl Grey, then," he said. "And, yes, but not for a long time. And it was a fae creature, not this. You're certain it is a Christian demon? Freyja and I did a lot of research but we did not know the origin so there was only so much we could do. Shall we go through to the library?"
Setting down a small milk jug, Merlin pushed the trolley out into the hallway. As they crossed the doorway into the library itself and to the designated tea-sipping area, he glanced back over his shoulder at Hecate. "Are you planning on taking the infant on a demon hunt?"
