Daunator narrowed his eyes and took her in. Asteria stood with her head held high, hoping the confidence she had in her own abilities assured him he should tell her his secret, not dismiss her as a foolish creature. After what seemed like hours, Daunator said, “You traveled here through a passage meant for someone else. Blue lights dance for good, for honor, not for sin and greed. But there is another way, one meant for evil. The devils dance from one world to the next, and in that passage, blackness dwells. Entrapment on Earth is fleeting; entrapment beyond our realm, in the never regions, could be eternal.”Once he’d finished his statement, Asteria gave him a moment, not sure he was done. “What does that mean?” she asked once she was certain he would say no more.Daunator did not answer her question, only shook his head. “You are doomed to failure, Holland. The evil creature within you should not be allowed to walk the Earth. I wis

“I’m sure the Healers will take good care of you.” She went around to the other side of the bed so she wouldn’t come between them and stooped down to hug her trembling friend. She wished she could do something to take her fear away, but the only person in the room who could do that was Hannah, and she was likely too busy concentrating on preparing herself at the moment.Cadence didn’t say anything to Shane, but she did smile at him and then moved on to Dax. “I bet you’re just here so you can keep up with Tara,” she teased.“You know it,” he replied, forcing a grin.She wasn’t as familiar with the Guardian since he was new to the team, but he seemed like a good guy. “It’ll be fine.” She clasped his hand, and he squeezed hers. “And don’t be ashamed to cry in front of your new girlfriend.”His eyes widened, and she laughed like she was kidding, even though s

No one else had noticed yet, but Cadence knew immediately what her sister had done. There was no point in arguing with her now—she was too out of it to respond. “Sicilia!” she shouted, since the Healer was still standing a few feet away at Christian’s bed. “You got another injection?”“What did she do?” Elliott asked, coming up behind her like a rocket. “What did she do?”“Oh my, God,” Sicilia muttered, coming over as quickly as she could. “Jamie!”“On the shelf, under the table,” he said, pointing, though Cadence realized the only reason he was standing after healing Shane was because Aaron was holding him up.Sicilia crouched down and saw that there were a few extra doses of the serum in a container underneath the table Jamie had used to administer the shots to Brandon and Aurora. She quickly moved to Cassidy, shot in hand, and felt around for a vein. Since C

Paul Larkin had been waiting for Aaron to make the call for weeks that he and his team should move in. It was clear something odd was happening with the Guardian Leader because Paul never imagined he would drag his feet the way that he had. There was a good chance that Holland was amassing the great majority of her forces in Paul’s back yard, and he wanted to go in and destroy her as soon as he could; at the least, he wanted to hunt down the maniacal doctor who had tortured Paul for days, and given the opportunity, the Area Leader of Melbourne would take him in and give him a taste of his own perverse medicine. But days had turned to weeks, and Aaron kept putting it off. Paul waited, prepared, waited some more, and then finally, he got the call.When Aaron told him Cassidy believed the target was Larundel, Paul wasn’t too horribly surprised. He went back over the reports from when he was gone and quickly saw the same discrepancy Cassidy pointed out. Becky and Pats

Brandon shifted a little bit as Jamie released his arm. Elliott somehow saw it from across the room and shot over to his son’s bed, and Cadence wondered if he was using Jamie’s IAC or had used his X-ray vision to see through the beds between them.She stood and stepped over a few feet so she was standing right next to his cot, and Brandon moved again. A few seconds later, he began to blink, and then he was staring at the three of them, confused. “Why are you all in my bedroom?”“Oh, good, you’re alive,” Jamie said, smirking at him. “How do you feel?”It must’ve suddenly dawned on Brandon where he was. He raised his hand up in front of his face and looked shocked at how quickly he could move. “I feel weird,” he said slowly. “Like… everything is different, but everything is still the same.”“Well, that seems to be a common response,” Jamie said, taking his
