Gemma snatched the mirror from the tiny alcove and pushed it into her bag with the book.
“Okay, I’m now convinced there’s magic. Now, what do we do?” The tear faded slowly away as the light fled the scene. Only the man lying unconscious lay left behind on the ground. “What do we do with him? We can’t leave him here.” Becky pondered the latest problem while assessing the man’s prone body and gear.
“We can’t stay here, and we can’t leave him here alone. What if those things mess wi

“I am sure you have several questions. But would you introduce me to your friend, please?” Larin waved his hand at the blonde woman to his left. He struggled not to snicker at her bug-eyed expression. She just appeared too comical. “Oh, uh, this is Rebecca Davis. We call her Becky for short. Becky, this is Larin, the guy from the mirror. I’m sorry I don’t remember you telling me your last name or, for that matter, who you are in all of this, really.” “Yeah, I think you’ve told me that already. Yeah, what is your involvement in all this, and you better blurt it because her brother is arriving soon.” Becky squinted at him suspiciously.&

Gemma woke up out of a dead sleep to the old doorbell insistently ringing. A quick check of her bedside clock gave her the answer she needed. It was Evan, but why was he ringing the bell, like that? Then memory rushed back to her, and the words Fear Mongers flashed in neon warning lights in her mind. She was out of bed even as she heard another door loudly open. Ignoring her robe and slippers, Gemma hurried after Larin. When Evan encountered a stranger in the house. What would he do? The doorbell was still peeling as she came down the stairs wide-eyed. She found Larin hauling his sword from the closet. Brandishing it properly before blocking her path to the door. He looked back at her and said. “Stay back. He might have brought something with him unknowingly. I’m opening the door. So, give us some room.”&n

“Would you like to see exactly what a Fear Monger looks like up close and personal? I believe that would make everything clear.” “What about the book? I can translate it at night, but can Evan read it? I mean, we have moonlight here. None in the butler’s pantry.” “The journal I forgot about that. I can’t remember what they wrote in it, in the first place. It may help us find more information on what we have to do to return the portal to its correct state.” Larin slapped the table while saying this. He’d forgotten about the journal from some long-forgotten ancestor of his. He’s been told that this ancestor was infatuated with one guardian, but because of circumstances, they found themselves trapped on opposite ends of the portal. Someone created mirr

“What are you guys talking about? You look really serious. Did something happen while we’re out of the room?” Becky dropped a slew of paper and pens on the table, while Gemma carefully placed, I’m nearer and a book on the table. “We’ve just been talking. Nothing’s happened, everything’s good. So what do you have here?” Larin asked as he looked over a pen. Evan, however, went straight for the journal and picked it up. He began flipping through the pages of the book. “Alright, let’s ignore the weirdness factor in everything and bypass the experiments you planned. Let’s forget about the demonstration to prove to me and go straight into reading it. I feel that time is of the essence here

The morning started early, with Larin banging on doors to wake everyone. “It’s barely sunrise.” “The Fear Mongers will have retreated to the darkest and quietest corners of the estate. Now is the time to use the wards to lock them in. The sooner we find the grimoire, the faster we can set everything to rights. Now go get into something you won’t mind soiling, and we’ll have breakfast before we start.” Larin gave her a chipper grin to encourage her to go along with his plans. “Fine, but we’ll need to figure out all the places. I need caffeine to jump-start my brain. All I can think of is the attic, basement, and other outbuildings. Why would they protect this building and not the main house? Oh, loo

The group decided they’d head into a more overgrown area of the garden. Becky feared if Larin turned into a bear near the servants’ cottage, their luck would have a delivery driver or police officer show up just in time to see a bear wandering around. “Do you believe this is a safe spot?” Larin suspected Becky suffered from nerves, but if Gemma insisted on humoring her, then he would too. “I believe so. Does it hurt?” Becky blurted out in her intrigue over this revelation. “It’s like the pain of moving from one position to another after a long time. Your body remembers it, but there’s still an ache.” Larin’s ey

Larin hated this. He should have made her go with Becky, and Evan should be here. His instinct wanted to protect her. Even in daylight, Fear Mongers could influence people with attacks on the mind. They entered the main hour from the front doors. With the main doors left open, Gemma followed Larin up the main stairs. “There are two sets of stairs leading from this floor down. The main stairs and the servants’ stairs. The attic stair is to the left at the far end. The servants’ stairs are to the right again at the far end. The servants’ stairs lead to the butler’s pantry and the stairs to the basement are there.” “We’ll start by sealing the widow’s walk first, then the attic. We will keep the lights

Evan and Becky arrived at the library with time to wait before it opened. They found a coffee shop and sat down with drinks to wait. “What do you think we’ll find in this research trip?” “I’ve been thinking about that and the main flags I’m looking for are patterns in the deaths, methods, times, and any evidence of the occult. If it’s found only within a certain time period then I’ll assume it’s mass hysteria and not real. If it does appear through the whole time, we will need that missing book desperately. The other thing we’re looking for is any reference to the missing book and where it might be hidden. I’m also far too nosy to ignore the fact that there’s at least one juicy story. The records from Mr. Winters are very extensive but lack the details about the people. I don’t see a reason for the reason the Butlers f

Exhausted as they were, the packing didn’t start until the next morning and lasted several days. The reason for this was it took longer to come up with wills and letters tying up loose ends with people and businesses. They would not send many until it became apparent that they would not be returning. Evan’s name needed to be transferred to other things so that he could maintain things for himself. During that time, Evan’s wife contacted him through a lawyer insisting on proceeding with a divorce. He informed her lawyer that he’d have his legal representation contact him soon. That he would like to proceed with removing her from his life and his legal representation would handle the negotiations from then on. Evan didn’t need her coming back into his life and making a mess of it. She’d never understood how his life changed in the m
A Bear's Mirrored Romance How the….? When…?
With the main house cleaned up, the group moved off to the crypt to clean up the evidence of the battle there. Hugo pointed out that it didn’t matter because if the restoration experts got far, they would find the other inconsistencies. Which would cause even more awkward questions. Larin agreed, and he offered the option of removing the containers that housed other things that they wouldn’t want to be freed. The idea, they would toss the containers into the portal without a destination. Effectively abandoning them to the abyss between portals. So instead of removing corpses and gore. The group scoured the crypt’s many spaces for the odd little containers. While doing this Angelica discovered a sealed niche that unlike others with their
A Bear's Mirrored Romance What Comes Next?
“Are you ready for what comes next?” Larin asked from where he sat on a low wall watching the fire. His arms and ankles crossed. Gemma moved to sit beside Larin and watched him for a time before she turned to look at the fire. “If what I’ve seen in the last few days is real, do I have much choice?” “There’s always a choice, but the consequences will always follow. It’s the consequences you need to think about if you haven’t decided.” “It’s not that I’m not choosing to go. I’m worried about what happens on the other side. My aunt and others never came back, and I don’t know why. Did they
A Bear's Mirrored Romance Clean Up and Contemplation
It was nearly dark by the time the men hauled the corpses from the different spaces. With them now deep in the back by the smokehouse. They dealt with them. With the number of corpses, they decided it would be better to make it appear like a brush fire accident. If the fire department somehow discovered this fire, it would appear like a brush fire rather than a deliberate one. The corpses of Fear Mongers were vague and burned quickly. But, since the estate was so far off the beaten track, the chances of the fire being noticed weren’t very high. The women stayed behind and worked on cleaning up the attic. It is the most easily found location made it the priority. Then they’d deal with the tunnel in the basement. They still debated whether the crypt needed to be cleaned at all. After all, there were corpses down there. Who

Larin and Hugo pulled several weapons from their hiding places that they thought the others could handle after a brief training session. The technique could come later, but survival was more important. With the weapons hauled out, Hugo took it upon himself to use the lab as space to clean and maintain the weapons. The others filed out to do the last thing on their list. With fresh eyes, they went in search of the images from the ceilings. What secrets lay above everyone’s heads? They figured out the ceilings in question were the sitting room, study/library, and dining room. Each room depicted a battle of sorts. The study’s displayed the fleeing of many creatures,

After several minutes passed, the glow faded, and Angelica looked up. “You’re in luck. Whoever wrote this journal didn’t use magic on it? Which means you are one lucky guy. Your backside is in the clear.” Evan noticeably sighed with his relief, then rushed over to open the book. “Oh, great, it’s not in English. Actually, I’m not sure what it’s in.” Becky moved over to look at the chicken scratches on the pages. “Looks like code or shorthand. Not surprising. Many scientists choose to do that or dictate voice recordings to make notes. It’s faster.” “Lovely more research and translation. Just what we n
A Bear's Mirrored Romance Into the Secrets Room
Gemma watched Larin step into the soft glow coming from inside the staircase. He soon disappeared down as the circular staircase turned around on itself. Hugo followed Larin. The small width of the staircase cramped the men and Gemma assumed the two could not fight in such short quarters. A moment later, Larin’s voice rang out from somewhere below. “It’s all clear. They warded this place up tighter than any place I know. Everyone can come down, but be careful and don’t wander or touch anything. We don’t know whether they warded anything with a curse or trap of some sort.” “Well, that’s a comforting thought. Don’t touch it or it might explode in your hand or kill you.” it did not impress as much Becky as Gemma thought she would be.
A Bear's Mirrored Romance Finding the Secret Treasure Trove
Finally, the small group began their search. Clearly, the entrance was not as easy to discover as the one in the basement. Gemma thought perhaps there was no secret room. They spent a lot more time searching for the entrance, to no avail. No one discovered anything out of place. The walls appeared solid. There were no odd cracks between the stones that might outline a door. Fancy trim, creatively hidden as a wood panel no wooden door. “Okay, this is ridiculous. The door isn’t here. We’ve looked everywhere for all entrances.” Evan sat down on a trunk. “We know there’s a room right there. The measurements of this room prove that.” Becky stated the fact, which was obvious to everyone. “I agree we’ve chec
A Bear's Mirrored Romance The Next Steps in the Search
Gemma and Evan paced the basement floor while trying to listen for sounds from the tunnel. The two men only left them minutes before this for a destination that no one knew how far it was. Gemma’s only consolation currently was she heard no sounds of falling or fighting. “We need to know where that goes and where those things went.” Becky shook her hands as the tension got to her. “Why am I waiting for the other shoe to drop?” “Because at every turn, so far the other shoe has dropped. I’m hoping that we’ll run out of shoes.” Gemma responded to her friend’s comment dryly. “I just want some good news. How are we to get these things done with all this looming over our heads? It’s not like we can tell the restoration people they can’t work right now because we
