Chapter 306
The sound of the heart monitor buzzing in one even pitch was haunting as I flew into the operating room and over to where Tara lay perfectly still on the bed. Even with the volume almost completely down, it filled my head from the inside. I pressed my ear to her chest, willing there to be some sort of sign that she either wasn’t dead or that this wouldn’t last, but I heard nothing but my own static breath.
Brandon entered the room, followed by Christian, and I vaguely remembered having heard Brandon knock on his office door while I was rushing back to Tara’s side. I prayed Christian would be able to do something, anything to help, but he wasn’t a doctor, and Jamie was out of it. Maybe Cale was available. Maybe I should call him. I moved out of Christian’s way and let him do his own examination.
After he turned the volume completely down on the heart rate monitor, he pushed me further aside, pressed his head to Tara’s chest, felt for

Cadence handed me a plastic bag full of snacks and said, “Thought you might be hungry.”I noticed she was looking at Brandon like she thought he might eat all of the chips and other snacks she’d thrown together, and he said, “Don’t worry. I had a large pizza for lunch.” My eyebrows shot up, though I’m not sure why it was a surprise to me. I’ve seen the boy eat. “I’m a stress eater,” he added, and I chuckled. He’s an any time eater.“Dax, how are you doing?” Cadence asked, and I was happy she’d remembered his name, though I guessed she could’ve cheated and used her IAC. My sister is so bad at remembering names, how people are related, where people are from, all those little details that I always know. I think it drives her a little crazy that she’s so awful at it, but there’s a lot on her mind.Dax sighed and somehow produced a smile. “I’m okay.

Cale was still looking from one of us to the next, trying to figure out what was happening. He finally returned his attention to Cadence. “What did you do?”She folded her arms and let out a deep breath. “Transformation serum.”His blue eyes widened. “Cadence!”“Hey, I didn’t do it on my own this time,” she reasoned. “It was a team effort.”He didn’t seem to care. “Yeah, and I’m sure the one person who was not chosen to play by the team captain was the guy who can fire me or send me to Siberia.”“If it’s any consolation, I hear it’s lovely this time of year,” Elliott joked.Cale wasn’t amused. Neither was Cadence. She looked at Elliott hard but then returned her attention to the doctor. “You aren’t doing anything. You’re just here to… keep an eye on her while Jamie’s out. That’s all.&rdq

Once Cadence and Elliott were gone, the four of us were thrust back into silence. I could see how hard Jamie was fighting to wake up and thought it must be so odd to be lying there fully conscious but unable to do anything. At least he knew his sister was safe.“So… how long has she been…?” Cale finally asked, looking at me, though I think anyone could’ve answered.“Not long,” I told him. “Just a few minutes before you guys came in.”“Okay. Well, there’s no point in me standing here and watching her. I mean... you guys can. She’s your friend. I get that. But….” He looked around again and then walked across the room. I had no idea what he might be doing, but it was obvious he didn’t want to have anything to do with this situation, so he may as well go do something else if he could.“Who is that guy?” Dax whispered, and I got the impression he was tired

“Tara’s vitals are returning to normal,” Cale explained. “I guess… whatever you guys did worked.”I couldn’t help but smile. I patted Jamie on the shoulder and gave him a little squeeze. “Thank you, Jamie. I guess I need to thank Christian, too.” It pained me to say that, but he had been the one to administer the shots.“He’s working on the trackers and the IACs,” Cadence explained. “We should let Tara continue to rest. Once she’s awake, we can see what she’s capable of.” That made me think that Aaron knew what we had done. “Did anyone contact her parents?”“Her mother passed away a couple of years ago.” Jamie’s voice still sounded weak. “She lived with her grandma, and her health isn’t good, so I wanted to wait.”I felt a little stupid for not having thought of any of that before now, but I had been so worried a

The sky had turned dark by the time Brandon got me settled in my wicker chair atop the apartment building. This was the same place where I’d contacted Mina, but I was going into this differently. No longer naïve that the other side didn’t know about my gifts, I was determined to accomplish my own goals while not allowing them to use me for anything.Brandon had been hesitant to leave me, but I knew I wouldn’t be able to concentrate on the task at hand with him staring at me, so he reluctantly went to wait on the other side of the door with strict instructions to come back to me if I wasn’t done in half an hour. I knew I would have to go in pretty deep to find what I was looking for, and part of me was concerned I might not find my way back again without help from the outside world. Mina had told me all of the answers were in my own head, but to find Paul, I’d have to reach into the minds of the undead, possibly the demonic Vampires who had c

Concentrating all of my effort, I thought back to the dream, the one where I had clearly seen both of their faces. I had little memory of the images, but Mina reminded me when I’d spoken to her. A fluid picture came into my mind’s eye, and the harder I tried, the more I was able to bring it into focus until I clearly recognized where I was.I was standing in at least a foot of sand. A dry breeze floated past me. I tried to remember I was still in my own mind, and I took a deep breath, determined not to leave until I found what I was looking for.As I looked around me, I remembered some of these views from my dream. An old, dilapidated building stood to my right. From behind its walls, I heard the screams of a thousand people, dead or undead, I wasn’t sure. I also heard the sounds of hammers and other tools. Dirt, graffiti, and grime covered what was supposed to be a white exterior, and I immediately knew this place should be feared. The scent of death

Brandon insisted I stop by my apartment and get something to eat before we headed over to the meeting. I was famished, so it didn’t take much to convince me. He made me some mac and cheese and I took a few notes about everything that I had experienced in my trance—or whatever you want to call it. I was pretty sure I’d remember the most important parts, but I wanted to make sure I told Aaron and Cadence everything I knew so that they had as much information as they could get in order to find Paul, get him out, find Holland and Carter, and destroy them. It sounded a lot simpler on paper….After we put the dirty dishes in the dishwasher, I grabbed a Dr. Pepper and we headed out the door. I was running on fumes at this point, and I thought the caffeine might help, though I had a feeling when I crashed, it might be for a day or two. I thought my sister was probably feeling the same way, and when I saw her, that was confirmed. She had dark circles under her

I was really hoping no one would question how this worked with me, but of course someone did. Christian’s tone was accusatory as he asked, “Are you saying you think the reason you’ve been so aggressive lately is because she’s controlling you?”I probably wouldn’t have had to say anything to defend myself as at least half of the team reacted negatively to his question. Elliott’s hands immediately formed fists, and Jamie’s usually passive countenance turned to a scowl. I decided to speak up for myself, though. “Aggressive? If you’re talking about when I hissed at you the other night, that had nothing to do with Asteria. That was because you’re a moron.”Elliott laughed, and Christian eyed him like he was ready to take on the Guardian who was easily twice his size. Returning his narrowed gaze to me, Christian said, “Hey, I’ve done a lot to help you get where you are. Seems like you’v
