Oliver Menzies

She should’ve checked the facts.

Amanda Bailey

Thing is, she did. She checked them by clicking on urls provided by the student, who’d linked them to doctored web pages that seemed to confirm the ‘facts’ in her thesis.

Oliver Menzies

I don’t even know the woman. Why are you telling me this?

Amanda Bailey

Got a confession I found something out about the Alperton Angels. A few things. Actually, a lot of things and didn’t let you know.

Oliver Menzies

So? I do my own research, have my own contacts.

Amanda Bailey

Sure. But there’s one thing that’s pretty fundamental.

Oliver Menzies

Surely several things. That Holly was Lady Georgina Ogilvy, distant cousin to the Queen. That the Alperton Angels baby was adopted by Prince Edward and Sophie, Countess of Wessex. That Lady Louise Mountbatten Windsor is about to turn eighteen while the world remains unaware of what she really is.

Amanda Bailey

Who told you that? You’re supposed to be writing about the supernatural.

Oliver Menzies

Not any more. There’s something more important to do.

Amanda Bailey

Like what?

Oliver Menzies

Destroying the Antichrist. Saving mankind.

Amanda Bailey

Oliver, stop playing games. I’m being serious.

Oliver Menzies

So am I. The Alperton Angels were right. But they were betrayed by Holly. She wasn’t an angel, just the baby’s mother. She was lured in by the dark forces.

Amanda Bailey

She wasn’t the baby’s mother. Olly, I need to tell you a few things. Let’s meet up.

Oliver Menzies

Too late.
