Semua Bab Leesa's Advent: Bab 151 - Bab 160

With Rave out hunting extra powerful vampires with Stefan and Dominic, Leesa definitely didn’t want to be alone tonight. Instead, she stopped off at Cali’s room when she got back to the dorm. The door was open so she walked in.Cali was sitting on her bed watching television. She looked up when Leesa entered the room.“Hey, Lees. Just a minute. I’m in the middle of a really good part.” She turned back to the screen.Leesa pulled off her parka and sat down on the bed beside Cali. It took her a moment before she realized what Cali was watching, but when a pair of fangs appeared in the mouth of a really good-looking guy, it became clear it was one of vampire shows that were so popular nowadays. Leesa never watched any of them—she had more than enough supernatural stuff in her life, thank you—so she didn’t recognize the show. She guessed it was probably True Blood or Vampire Diaries.After a moment, Cali paused

Leesa and Cali were most of the way through The Hangover 2. Leesa had thought the first movie was hysterical, but wasn’t finding this one nearly as good.“Anyone feel like a late night walk?”As usual, she had not heard Rave approach, but there he was, standing in Cali’s doorway with a big smile on his handsome face. She bounded up off the bed and threw herself into his arms.“You’re safe!”Rave kissed the top of her head. “I love it when you’re this happy to see me,” he said, smiling.“I’m always happy to see you,” Leesa said, “but sometimes I’m beyond happy. Did everything go okay? Is everyone all right?”“Everything went great. Stefan’s plan worked perfectly.”“Did Dominic need to help at all?” Now that Leesa knew Rave was safe, her worry shifted to being forced to leave Weston.“Not a bit. Thre

The rest of the week passed uneventfully, for which Leesa was very grateful. Way too much stuff had been happening lately and she needed a chance to settle down and catch her breath. Of course, uneventful did not mean nothing was going on. There were classes and a growing amount of homework, and she was practicing passive magic almost every evening with Dominic.Today, they were heading out on another road trip. She couldn’t wait until they reached whatever destination Dominic had in mind, because he had said he was going to teach her to cast her first spell today!They had already driven farther west than they had ever gone, skirting the northern suburbs of New York City and crossing the Hudson River on the gigantic Tappan Zee Bridge. The three mile long bridge was by far the longest and highest Leesa had ever crossed, and she was a bit nervous driving across it. She vowed to be less nervous on the return trip and to enjoy the spectacular view.After leav

The next few days passed in a wonderfully boring way. This week’s big activity was a normal college thing—a Valentine’s Day party at Andy’s fraternity tomorrow night. At first Leesa didn’t want to go, but Cali had talked her into it. Once Rave agreed to come along, Leesa was happy. Almost anything she did with Rave was romantic, but being with him at a Valentine’s thing would be extra special. The only problem was she had no idea what she should wear. Once again, Cali had come to the rescue. They were going shopping today at a resale clothes place on campus called Second Time’s A Charm to try to find something “valentiny” as Cali called it. Cali already had her own outfit picked out, but she was keeping it a surprise from everyone, including Leesa.“You ready to go?” Cali asked from Leesa’s doorway. She was wearing her gray jacket with the pink accents, but since it wasn’t all that cold out she was

Josef strolled southward along the side of the highway in north central Vermont, in no real hurry. Twice now, once in Canada and once here in Vermont, a driver had stopped to offer him a lift. He graciously accepted the ride each time. When there were no rides offered, he was content to walk. This stretch of road was not very heavily traveled at night, but dressed all in black as he was, whenever he saw headlights approaching he simply edged farther to the side and let the car pass. There was some snow along the edges of the shoulder, but it had been plowed pretty far back, giving him plenty of room to remain safe. He did not begrudge the tiny delays caused by each passing vehicle.When there were only four of you hunting a man of wisdom and experience who did not want to be found, you learned to be patient. Unless Dominic made a mistake or was forced to employ his magic, they would need to be very lucky to find him. Time was on their side, though. The longer Dominic remained
