Simon froze in the doorway.
For a moment, he considered stepping back out and closing the door. Then he decided that would look even worse.
He walked in and shut the door behind him.
"What are you talking about?"
"You heard me."
"I was taking a walk."
Lilith still didn't turn around.
"All night?"
"It's a big residence."
She finally looked over her shoulder at him. Her golden eyes travelled from his face to his robe, then slowly back up again.
"Don't bother, Simon."
"I'm not bothering. I'm telling you-"
"I can smell her on you."
Simon closed his mouth.
"And I can see her demonic energy and aura all over you," Lilith continued calmly. "On your neck. On your hands. On your chest." She tilted her head slightly. "Your back too. She has rather sharp nails, doesn't she?"
Simon's lips twitched.
"You're a Minor Lesser Demon. You can barely draw demonic energy into your body."
