Look, I’m a born promise breaker. It’s in my nature. But giving my word to Emily is something else altogether. After two days of kicking tires on whatever leads we can scrape together, I feel like I owe it to her to get things moving.
She’s still pretty weak, but is determined to gain ground. If I’m being honest, I almost think the coven is intentionally keeping her woozy. So they can keep her here. I wouldn’t put it past a witch in this joint to pull some behind the scenes shenanigans to get what they want, so I’m more than ready to pull up stakes and move on.
“What’s gotten into you?” Thomas asks over the top of his computer screen as I bang into our shared sitting room.
“Plenty.” Sitting down may be all well and good for Thomas, but I’m too worked up to dream of it. Between the diviners skulking around every corner and Leander glaring at me whenever I get close, I’m ready to peel off my skin and throw it in the trash.
