“You are not thinking,” he says.

“No,” I growl. “I’m not!”

Lucifer chuckles then leans against the palms of his hands. “That’s his charm,” he says to Killian.

“Break his teeth,”the voice suggests, and I almost do—almost.

Suddenly, the doors swing open and something walks in that doesn’t belong here. Vinny Salotto. Our fourth. What the hell is he doing here? He’s supposed to stay on the outside. Fuck! He walks in quietly. Too damn quietly, like the noise of the room is avoiding him. Everyone else is chaos and he’s still. I don’t know what is worse. He doesn’t look around at the shit show of this place. Doesn’t react to the screaming, or the girl licking the wall. The guy jumping up and down from table to table. He just walks right for us. His shoulders squared like he doesn’t have a care in the world. Vinny’s eyes land on mine and he smirks.

“Oh look, your little boyfriend found you,”the voice chimes in, and I grit my teeth. Then—he walks over, pulls out a chair, and sits. Silence spreads amongst us, then Lucifer laughs.

“You’re loud,” Vinny says to me, and I narrow my eyes.

“You’re breathing,” I shoot back, and his lip twitches.

“He doesn’t care, which makes this so much worse,”the voice provokes. Killian leans over and gives Vinny a fist bump while Lucifer gives Vinny the finger. Those two never got along so this will be fun to deal with. Vinny kicks me underneath the table, raising a brow at me.

“Where is she?” I ask, and his eyes narrow.

“She’s not supposed to be gone this long,” Lucifer answers, and my jaw tightens.

“You know where she is?” I ask, and he shrugs.

“I can hear her. She will be back,” he says, but Vinny kicks me again and I slam my hands on the table for the second time this morning.

“What!” I growl.

“I know where they take the ones they want to quiet. If you don’t chill out, you will go there next,” he says, and I raise a brow.

“How the fuck do you know, you just got here,” I question, and he smiles.

“I’ve been here all along. You just didn’t know,” he answers, and my hands curl into fists.

“Well then, where did they take her?” I growl, and Vinny points to his head.What the fuck does that mean?Lucifer leans forward and clears his throat.

“Behavior Therapy,” he states.

“Then we go get her!” I demand as Killian exhales softly.

“And walk into their favorite room?” Lucifer asks, and I don’t hesitate.

“Yes,” I answer, and Killian shakes his head.

“That would be… reckless.”

“I don’t care,” I spit as Vinny tilts his head, watching me.

“You don’t,” he agrees.

“Good,” I say as the voice inside me hums.

“He’s coming with you.”

“Oh, I like this already,” Lucifer says, smiling wildly, then Killian stands.

“Then we should move quickly,” he says, and I don’t wait. Leaving the trays on the table, we exit the cafeteria and start walking.

“Sit down! Back to your tables,” the guards shout. But we keep moving as if they didn’t say anything at all, because now I have direction. I have something to hit. The voice in my head screams.
