Chapter 56

Lily plopped a glass down on top of the demon and the flames went out. He was only about three inches tall, and was now frantically scratching at the floor as if to tunnel through. Dana, having purged the entity from her body, let out a sigh as intelligence returned to her eyes. She stared down at the little demon on the floor and let out a sigh.

“Food poisoning,” she muttered.

The Glutton smacked the glass in an attempt to shatter it. “You can’t do this to me!”

“But I can.” Lily looked up at Eulalie. “This glass is made of me and won’t break. We need a crystalline vessel that we can store inside of a tank of holy water. That’ll keep the little shit from escaping.”

“I’m a Chosen of Ba’al Zabub! He’ll come for me and flay the skin from your—”

Lily slid a hand beneath the glass and shook it, causing the Glutton to bounce around inside. He shrieked a bunch of obscenities in multiple languages.

“He won’t get any bigger, will he?” asked Aurora.
