“I already told you that I believe you. Wait…you said you felt a surge of power? What sort of power?”
“I don’t know. Sometimes when I touch Emma, it gives me a bit of a shock.”
“A bad one?”
“Not at all. It’s the sort of surge I get when I’m reaching through dimensions.” Jesse frowned. “And why aren’t you sleeping?”
“Insomnia. Do I want to know why you weren’t asleep?”
“I have a feeling you already do. I think I’m going to go do some research. Maybe I’ll come across something in one of the books.”
“Dominique misses you, you know.”
Jesse grimaced. “I know. I haven’t exactly been available the past week.”
“What about tomorrow?”
“Yeah, I’ll be available tomorrow.”
“Good.”
“You should get some sleep,” Jesse said, standing.
“I will in a bit. You should, too, you know.”
“No. You know I can’t while this is on my mind. If something is wrong…if somebody is up to no good…it’ll be best to know now. We don’t want to get blindsided.”
