They were connected again and she could feel him parsing through her emotions. He seemed to be pushing them into different little categories. Compartmentalizing them into sections between what he could tolerate from her right now, and what needed to be filed away for further consideration. The demon didn't bother corralling her own thoughts into something more manageable because why bother and how else would he learn.
He was going about the entire thing like a game to be won, and he certainly could if he wanted to. She nodded in understanding to another brief lecture from him. She wanted to argue, or rather, point out that she was very cute and many men would be wanting to talk to her.
She decided against it.
Julianna handed Owen a bagel when they were settled in the car.
She was not thrilled about being back in the car.
The demoness was aware of many eyes on her as soon as they entered the base together. There were many different looks. Curiosity, confusion, desire. She couldn't feel these other mortals like she could feel her master, but their faces were much easier to read. Julianna pretended to be oblivious to the attention. Owen could feel her delighting in it, however.
Julianna was turning her new, plastic ID card back and forth, watching the way it reflected the bright fluorescent overhead lights as they walked to what she assumed was his office. Her heels clicked in time with the muffled thumps of his boots at they walked together.
Two emotions sprung up at once, when he opened the door for them. A bored distaste for the plain room and a surprise that there was already someone inside.
There was a woman perched on the corner of his desk. She was pale and pretty with light blonde hair that was cut in a gentle bob around her angular face. She wore a CAF uniform that was different from Owen's. Hers had a collared shirt and a tie beneath a long jacket. She wore a skirt and did not have nearly as many medals but she had slender legs that appeared to go on and on for miles.
Julianna hated her, immediately.
Dr. Reed, as he called her, continued to read whatever she had in her hands. Something she had picked up off his desk, since it was in a black Reconnaissance folder and not a blue Research and Development one. She glanced at him over the thin frame of her glasses. "Lieutenant General Weatherfare," she replied, with a bit of sass. Unsure of why they were being so overly formal. Amusement curled at the corner of her mouth. "Or should that be Commander Weatherfare now," she continued, closing the file and tossing it back on top of the stack he had on his desk.
Standing up from the desk Dr. Reed looked at Owen, and then to the smaller woman standing next to him. Julianna's face remained neutral, but internally she was still alight with an unmitigated jealousy.
"Where's Lilian?" She asked Owen. She didn't address the other woman or introduce herself to her. "You liked Lilian. Especially on Wednesdays."

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
