Demona/Dominique POV
The drugs she stole on seemed to work on humans as well. The baby was bigger than excepted, but it was still healthy. Now, she had to fire her accomplice and wipe the records. The last of the records would have to done somewhat later, as she didn't want suspicion. She clicked the intercom and asked her assistant to get her. It was several minutes before her office door opened.
"You wanted to see me?" The woman asked.
"You're being let go. You'll get your severance pay in the mail." Demona told her.
"I understand. I'll start packing my things." She nodded.
"Your badge will deactivate by six." Demona warned.
The woman left with a nod. Demona watched the door close. She dialed another number and spoke.
"Usual spot. You'll get the details then." She hung up.
In her true form, Demona swooped down to the park below. The middle aged man was sitting on a bench. He looked up before standing. Demona handed him a piece of paper. He skimmed it.
"I need you follow that woman and make sure she doesn't get caught. Afterwards, it's your call." She waited.
"This is cutting it to the wire. You know I hate that." He growled.
"3,000 extra for your "overtime." I want this done quietly." Demona said.
"Alright. You got a deal." He grinned.
