Felipe leaped forward, shifting mid-stride, and stalked slowly toward the two men. Sinthy’s magic radiated off her, fueled by some kind of manic hatred or sadness. It was like nothing I’d ever experienced before. She lifted a hand toward the approaching intruders and clasped them in some kind of spell similar to my protection ward. They stood, rooted to the spot, apparently unable to move. They were still so far away that I couldn’t even make out if they were men or women. Felipe, seeing they were now frozen, ran forward and circled them, and I could hear his growls and snarls all the way where I was.Sinthy jerked the man’s collar, making his head loll around like a doll. “Tell me what I want to know. Otherwise, I’ll start by fileting you like a fish. I’ll start with the skin, then I’ll do the fingernails, then the eyes, then the— ”“I’m sorry.” His voice sounded so tortured and broken. The horror at Sinthy’s threats sending him into a frenzy. “I’m a witch, okay, I’m a witch.” Then h

NicoSinthy was gone for a long time, holed up in her room, if I had to guess. My head was still spinning as I tried to make sense of the last hour. I’d never seen the witch look so upset and confused. Since I’d met her, Sinthy had been the face of calm and usually acted like a goofy kid. But that rage she’d shown when she realized her mother’s magic had been stolen had… well, it had terrified me. Not only had her mother’s magic been stolen, twisted, and tortured into some kind of weapon, but it had twisted that poor kid into some kind of monster for Viola’s needs. Somehow, every passing showed me another layer of the vile human she was.“I’m gonna go check on her,” Maddy said when Sinthy had been gone for over an hour.“Okay. Let me know if I can do anything for her.”Maddy returned a half hour later, looking forlorn.“What happened?” I asked as she came in the front door.“That girl is not okay. She’s depressed and sad and a little out of it.”“Is she still out in the woods?”Maddy

“No, no, nothing like that,” Sinthy said, shaking her head. “But I feel like the only way I’ll ever get to meet Viola face to face is to get out of here.”“Fine,” I said. “You can go, but I want you with one magical ear to the ground. If anything goes wrong here, I want you back. Okay?”“Deal,” Sinthy said. “I’ll go, get packed. Also, is this a really nice island? Do I need to pack my thong bikini?”“Would you go, pack,” I growled at her.Her laughter rang through the air as she went. I looked up at the sky. I couldn’t see the magic that protected us, but it was there. If Sinthy really had worked out a way to do what she’d said, then that opened a lot of possibilities. She was no longer bound to this location. It was a secret weapon I’d have to figure out how to use.Back in the house, I had a suitcase open on the living room couch. Luis, Felipe, and Diego had already packed—their bags lined up in the foyer. Maddy and Gabriella were making dinner. My phone rang, and I assumed it was D

He was glancing around in every direction, probably scared the royals had somehow discovered our location before we’d even arrived. We grabbed our things and walked onto the tarmac, where a pilot waved to us.Sinthy bypassed the pilot and walked over to place a hand on the plane. Closing her eyes, she gave herself an affirmative nod before looking back at us.“Checking to make sure there was nothing on the plane that could track us. We’re clear.”The pilot showed us the seats and where to put our bags, then left to join his co-pilot in the cockpit. We hadn’t even gotten buckled up when every one of our new burner cell phones started chiming and ringing. I caught Nico’s eye, dread filling my stomach. This couldn’t be good.Diego read the text. “It says we need to turn on the news. Like, now.”Nico found a small, flat-screen TV on the wall and turned it on. As soon as the screen flashed on, I became nauseated. My face was staring back at me from the screen. My current driver’s license p

Donatello sipped at an espresso. “True. You deserve to live in your own home free of fear. So, what do we have that we can use against Viola?”I inclined my head at Sinthy. “We caught one of Viola’s special ops groups trying to break through Sinthy’s magic wards. They had their own witch, a young man, who absolutely didn’t want to be doing her bidding. Sinthy… uh… took care of the two military guys, put a magical tracker on the witch, and sent him packing back to Viola.”Donatello set his cup aside and sat forward eagerly. “So, we have a way of finding one of Viola’s people? At any time? Do we think Viola suspects?”I shook my head. “We don’t think so. She called me not long after the incident. Nothing in her voice or demeanor indicated that she knew. We could even hear her abusing the boy over the phone. I think it’s safe to say she doesn’t know.”“The tracker is still on him. I can sense it,” Sinthy added. “Which means the boy is still alive. Even if they did somehow discover it, th
