Just when we thought that everything was going as planned, events decided to take a twist. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up. Of course, even if I didn't, the situation at hand wouldn't have been any different. But why did it have to happen now and not when the book was safely hidden?

The man from the hospital- Ed, I guess- stood a few feet away from the three of us and the book. My heart was beating fast, and I had no doubt that Niall's was also. But Zayn was as calm as can be. I didn't know what was going on through his head, but I hoped he had a plan.

"Zayn," Ed said. "What are you doing with these hunters?"

"Don't worry, Ed," Zayn said, "I have this all under control."

"They have the book, Zayn," the ginger pointed out.

"I know, I know. Don't worry. I know exactly what I'm doing."

Zayn walked over to Ed and began to say something to him. I was very sure that he was talking too low for Niall and I to hear, but I heard every single word. I swear. I didn't know how, and this was creeping the hell out of me.

"I'm planning to trick them," Zayn whispered. "I'm going to pretend to help them and in the end bring them to Louis."

"And how do I know that you're telling the truth?" Ed questioned. "For all I know, you are helping them and fooling me."

"Why would I team up with some hunters against my own?"

There was a slight pause and then a sigh from Ed.

"Fine," he replied. "Just make it quick. Louis is getting impatient. And you know that's not a good sign. Soon he'll be having fun by torturing the other demons."

"Okay, okay," Zayn said. "Just tell the others to lay off for a while. If anything I will call for backup."

With that said, Zayn turned back and walked to us. As he did, Ed disappeared into the air.

"What was that all about?" Niall asked suspiciously.

"Don't worry about Ed," Zayn said. "He and the rest should be off our backs now."

The demon followed Niall and me to the Riviera. I saw Niall was tensed up a bit. I wasn't blaming him because if I didn't believe Zayn I would feel the same way about the situation. Of course, I didn't trust Zayn one-hundred percent, but something told me that all this was the right thing to be doing.

When we got to the car, Lloyd's eyes gave off a confused look. "Who's your friend?"

I guess Zayn showed him his demon eyes because Lloyd yelled in panic.

"What the hell! It's a demon!" he said.

"We know," Niall told him.

"What in the world are you thinking, you idiots?"

"It's okay, Lloyd," I said. "You can trust him. I can't explain right now, but when we get the time I will tell you everything. Both of you."

This didn't calm Lloyd still, for he was as far away from Zayn as the car allowed. Zayn just looked slightly annoyed with him. His small pout and eyes said it all.
