Julianna fixed her glare on the finger he thrust her in direction. It lingered there for a few heartbeats, the sight of it only added kindle to the fire of her rage. “Yes, I am.” Each word was staccato and pushed through clenched teeth. Green eyes lifted to meet his again, the tilt of her chin was both to see him and to further punctuate her defiance. She clawed fingers, aggravated, through her hair. They fell back to her sides with a slap against her thighs. She had accurately predicted his reaction.
Ears springing to attention, she closed to distance between where she stood and where he sat lacing his boots. “I'm not going to wait around while only you risk your life for our daughter.” She took the opportunity that she rarely had to loom over him. The horrendous sound of his injured knee did nothing to comfort her. Her tail flickered angrily behind her head.
The mention of Kent only seemed to frustrate her further. She didn't want a babysitter. “I can help you,” she argued. They both knew of her abilities, of what she could do. Strength and speed and the endless manipulation of shadows at her disposal and he was treating her like some sort of distrusted damsel. He had always been more content to forget that she was stronger than she appeared. Natural abilities aside she had training that Owen had insisted she participate in and overseen personally.
It wasn't that Julianna didn't trust Major Forsyth and the rest of the team to take care of her husband and save her child. Julianna was tired of sending her husband face first into danger while she stayed behind and waited. “Kent can watch Cain,” she insisted, unknowingly repeating the words that the demon was whispering in her mind. Julianna was too much in a panic to realize Belial was manipulating her. “I can help you,” she repeated, sort of like a plea. His expectations weren't as solid as he'd like to think. “You have to let me help you.”
