Chapter 511

“Well, they were people, but they were completely jet black, like they’d been through a crisper. But they weren’t burned. I mean, they weren’t charred or anything. Just black. Except for their eyes. Those were red. And their clothes were weird. Some of them, anyway. Some of them looked like they were wearing clothes from a really long time ago, like villagers in an old movie or something. They crawled down the sides of the buildings, like spiders sort of. And they had claws. Maybe you should just jump into my head and then you could see for yourself.” It would be easier that way. I was so lost in watching her devour her lunch, I wasn’t sure I was making a lot of sense. I took another small bite and waited for her to decide what she wanted to do.“Okay, sounds good to me. Pull ‘em up.” She swiped at her mouth with a napkin.It was so weird inviting someone else into my head. I hoped I didn’t accidentally show h

There were so many assumptions in that sentence, it made me wonder what Brandon was telling people. Or was he even speaking about it all? Maybe it had gone through the rumor mill enough that everyone had their own warped version of what had happened. I didn’t even want to think about what other people might be saying about me, especially some of the girls at training who have always thought Brandon was too good for me. “We just decided that I was too distracted right now, and I need to figure a few things out. That’s all.” I remembered that Heather had gone to Pizza Triangle with them the other night when I hadn’t, and wondered if she was thinking about going after Brandon herself. A stab of jealousy hit me right in the gut.“Uh huh,” Heather said, like she didn’t buy a word that had come out of my mouth. “I was surprised to hear he’d broken up with you. You was about all he could talk about when we was in the portal

I cried myself to sleep, but when I woke up, I was mad. I wasn’t sure what I was mad about or who I was mad at, but that’s how I felt. So I got up and went to my treadmill, hoping a few dozen angry miles would have me feeling better.Christian was still in the hole. There was no point in pushing beyond that, so I focused my attention elsewhere as I pounded the pavement. I needed to talk to Brandon.Going over the conversation we might have occupied my mind as the miles flew by. I could imagine what I would sound like going over and sitting on his couch, pulling up the picture I’d taken of Alex’s note, since I’d destroyed the original, and letting Brandon read it, trying to explain myself. “It’s not that I wanted to be with Alex. I just don’t know what I might want in the future.” It sounded dumb. I couldn’t say that to him. I revised the conversation and kept running.Guessing what he would say was prob

I couldn’t really blame Christian for not wanting to stumble around in the dark, especially since he probably didn’t know for sure that what he was hearing were actually people and not something else. I thought about the creatures. Now might be a good time to bring them up. Or maybe not, since he was so agitated. “Do you think they’re people? Not something else? Are we talking a few or a couple dozen?”“I don’t know!” Yep, he was angry.I should’ve let it go but I needed an estimate. “Could you make a reasonable guess?”“If I had to, I’d say a hundred. Maybe more.”I wasn't expecting that. My mouth fell open. That was a lot of people. This situation just kept getting weirder. “Okay....”“All right. Talk to you later.”“Yeah.” It seemed odd that he didn’t w

I set the papers down and rushed to the door. When I saw Cadence’s face, I was both relieved and irritated. “What the crap?” I asked, looking her up and down. She was so tan, she looked like she was born on the beach. Her hair was all wavy, and she had a glow about her like nothing I’ve ever noticed before. She should’ve been smiling and happy, returned from her honeymoon and reveling in wedded bliss. Instead, she looked just as worried as I felt. “Why are you here?” I asked, meaning why hadn’t she called me to let me know she was coming, but it didn’t come out that way, and I realized I needed to focus or she was going to think I wasn’t glad to see her. In actuality, the only time I ever remember being happier to see anyone was when Elliott was at my door after he died—and when I saw Brandon at the hospital after the portal.“Hi, sis,” Cadence said, giving me a hug and ignoring my snarkiness. &ldqu

“I was able to jump into some of the missing people’s heads to see them being turned. I figured out that there were five or six Vampires primarily responsible for turning them, or turning others who went on to turn a bunch on their own, and Mila’s team has been hunting them down and destroying them. But Mila doesn’t know I’ve been helping.” I added that part quickly, hoping that neither of them was communicating with Hannah or Aurora via IAC while I was talking. The idea that I could get in trouble for all of this wasn’t out of my mind.“Why doesn’t she know?” Cadence asked.“I ended up helping Eliza out, and she just never told them I was working with her.” I could’ve told them, I realized, but Eliza was easy enough to blame in this situation, and she owed me enough that I didn’t mind putting it on her. I couldn’t tell my sister about Christian yet. It seemed like they were going

We were almost to their office building when Aaron stopped in front of me and pulled on Cadence’s arm, bringing her to a halt as well. I braced myself for the inevitable doom of discovery. “Hey—can you get Christian?”Oh. Crap.Obviously, my sister had been talking to someone else because she’s not very good at using her IAC and carrying on a conversation with another person in real life at the same time, so it took her a second. “What? Christian?”A volcano began to bubble in my stomach, on the brink of eruption. No longer worried about protecting his secret, the threat of my own demise had me panicked. If they knew what I’d helped him do, they’d be so angry—at me.“Yeah, I can’t get him on the IAC at all,” Aaron said, putting his hands on his hips and staring at my sister, frustrated.Trying to be the voice of reason, I said, “He’s on vacation,” prayin

“Anyone else want coffee?” Elliott asked, pushing up from his seat. He smiled at me, knowing I wouldn’t want any but also feeling sorry for me for an entirely different reason than the one I was currently focused on. I managed a small smile.“I’ll take a cup, if you don’t mind,” Hannah said. No one else wanted any, so Elliott headed toward the door. Mrs. Carminati has a Keurig out by her desk.“What kind?” Elliott paused with his hand on the knob.“Barista prima, please. No creamer.” Hannah smiled at him in thanks, and I let out a deep breath.“You okay?” Jamie asked me as Elliott left the room and Aaron got up to grab something off of the printer. I could’ve gotten it for him....“Yeah, fine.” He nodded but I could tell by his expression he wasn’t buying it. I was so ready for this to be over.Aurora flew in the door and rushed to her seat.

“Why isn’t this all over the news?” Jamie asked.“I honestly don’t know.” That was a phrase Aaron didn’t say very often. He was looking at me, and I wished he wasn’t. “Cassidy mentioned that a lot of these people may be invisible—homeless, no families, no jobs. But not all of them.”“Could Christian have been controlling the media somehow?” Hannah asked. Again, I wondered why she wouldn’t know the answer to that question. What had she been doing the last two weeks? “Does he have that authority?”“To some degree, but I don’t think he would’ve been doing that. Why would he?” Aaron asked.“Maybe to keep things under wraps until you got back and we could handle it?” Hannah guessed.I almost laughed. She had no idea.... No one else had any idea either, so I asked a question I’d been pondering for days. “Is it po

“Why don’t we see if we can track Christian’s cell phone?” Jamie came between the warring exes again. He was looking at me. “That something Emma could do, Cassidy?”“Uh, probably. I can ask her.” Emma was my best friend, after all. One of them, anyway.“I’ll ask her.” Aaron was still looking at me in a way that made me uncomfortable, and the tone in his voice conveyed that he didn’t trust me to ask my own best friend to track Christian’s phone. I wanted to be offended, but I was also intimidated. And I was beginning to realize he was right in doubting how honest I was being at the moment, though I wasn’t sure how he knew he should be. Was it his supernatural emotion-reading ability, or was there something about my expression?Aaron continued, but his eyes were on Jamie now, and it didn’t look like he wanted to spear his friend through the head, like he did me. “She&rs
