Chapter 150

The strange fellowship was moving through the hills above a large reservoir just north and west of Meriden when Rave detected a hint of the new vampires. He quickly motioned the party to halt. The vampires were to the north, closer than Rave would have liked. Interference from the vibrations of his three vampire companions was partly to blame, but there was more to it than that. As Stefan had warned, there was something just a little off about the renegade vampires.“They are about two hundred yards ahead of us,” he told Stefan. “Moving slowly east to west on a path that will intersect our own.”“Good,” Stefan said. “My comrades and I will move ahead, projecting as much of our power as we can without being obvious about it. Hopefully, that will be enough to mask your presence. I think Jarubu’s arrogance will work in our favor as well. He will be anxious to end what we started last time, and I intend to give him the chance

With Rave out hunting extra powerful vampires with Stefan and Dominic, Leesa definitely didn’t want to be alone tonight. Instead, she stopped off at Cali’s room when she got back to the dorm. The door was open so she walked in.Cali was sitting on her bed watching television. She looked up when Leesa entered the room.“Hey, Lees. Just a minute. I’m in the middle of a really good part.” She turned back to the screen.Leesa pulled off her parka and sat down on the bed beside Cali. It took her a moment before she realized what Cali was watching, but when a pair of fangs appeared in the mouth of a really good-looking guy, it became clear it was one of vampire shows that were so popular nowadays. Leesa never watched any of them—she had more than enough supernatural stuff in her life, thank you—so she didn’t recognize the show. She guessed it was probably True Blood or Vampire Diaries.After a moment, Cali paused

Leesa didn’t know that Rave was less than ten miles away, and that the hunters had located their quarry.Hidden from sight nearly a hundred feet back in the trees, Rave and his companions heard the vampire battle begin. As planned, they waited a few moments, listening closely to be sure the vampires were fully engaged. When Rave was certain the time was right, he gave the signal. The three volkaanes raced silently forward to join the fray, weaving through the trees with blue flames flickering from their fingertips as they turned up their magical fire. They didn’t hesitate when they reached the struggle.As always, speed and surprise were the volkaanes’ main advantages, and they were even more important now, against these unnaturally powerful vampires. Rave launched himself toward Stefan and Jarubu, who were locked in hand-to-hand combat. Dral and Bain hurled themselves at Melissa.Twisting nimbly in midair, Rave avoided Stefan and threw himself

Leesa and Cali were most of the way through The Hangover 2. Leesa had thought the first movie was hysterical, but wasn’t finding this one nearly as good.“Anyone feel like a late night walk?”As usual, she had not heard Rave approach, but there he was, standing in Cali’s doorway with a big smile on his handsome face. She bounded up off the bed and threw herself into his arms.“You’re safe!”Rave kissed the top of her head. “I love it when you’re this happy to see me,” he said, smiling.“I’m always happy to see you,” Leesa said, “but sometimes I’m beyond happy. Did everything go okay? Is everyone all right?”“Everything went great. Stefan’s plan worked perfectly.”“Did Dominic need to help at all?” Now that Leesa knew Rave was safe, her worry shifted to being forced to leave Weston.“Not a bit. Thre

Leesa smiled. How well he knew her—the knots of worry in her stomach had not yet completely disappeared. A quick walk would be just the thing.“Come with us, Dominic,” she said. “You can tell us what-ever it is you learned while we walk.”“You sure you don’t mind? It can wait until tomorrow if you would rather concentrate on enjoying your walk.”“No, please come,” Leesa said. “Otherwise, I’ll just be worrying all night about what you need to tell us.”Dominic nodded. “Okay. I can understand that.”“Let’s go, then,” Leesa said.She linked her arm around Rave’s and the three of them started down the sidewalk, heading toward the center of campus.This late, there were only a few other students outside, especially with the night being so cold—cold if you didn’t have your arm linked around a volkaane’s, that i

The rest of the week passed uneventfully, for which Leesa was very grateful. Way too much stuff had been happening lately and she needed a chance to settle down and catch her breath. Of course, uneventful did not mean nothing was going on. There were classes and a growing amount of homework, and she was practicing passive magic almost every evening with Dominic.Today, they were heading out on another road trip. She couldn’t wait until they reached whatever destination Dominic had in mind, because he had said he was going to teach her to cast her first spell today!They had already driven farther west than they had ever gone, skirting the northern suburbs of New York City and crossing the Hudson River on the gigantic Tappan Zee Bridge. The three mile long bridge was by far the longest and highest Leesa had ever crossed, and she was a bit nervous driving across it. She vowed to be less nervous on the return trip and to enjoy the spectacular view.After leav

Dominic nodded. “I always check a place out before I bring you to it, to make sure it’s safe for whatever I have planned.” When he found the section he wanted, he started looking through it more carefully, occasionally lifting his eyes from the book and checking something alongside the trail. Leesa watched him closely, wondering what he was doing. “Okay, got it,” Dominic said. He closed the book, marking the place he had selected with his finger. “I’m going to teach you a growth spell for plants. Unfortunately, I cannot demonstrate it for you, or the black waziri will sense my magic. When you are ready, we’ll use the book to give you a visual.” Leesa nodded, wondering what kind of plant growth thing it would be. “First,” Dominic continued, “I have to teach you the in-cantation. I cannot say the parts all together or they will trigger the spell. So I’ll give it to you in pieces. Once you have them all, you can put them together. Okay?” “Yeah. I

The next few days passed in a wonderfully boring way. This week’s big activity was a normal college thing—a Valentine’s Day party at Andy’s fraternity tomorrow night. At first Leesa didn’t want to go, but Cali had talked her into it. Once Rave agreed to come along, Leesa was happy. Almost anything she did with Rave was romantic, but being with him at a Valentine’s thing would be extra special. The only problem was she had no idea what she should wear. Once again, Cali had come to the rescue. They were going shopping today at a resale clothes place on campus called Second Time’s A Charm to try to find something “valentiny” as Cali called it. Cali already had her own outfit picked out, but she was keeping it a surprise from everyone, including Leesa.“You ready to go?” Cali asked from Leesa’s doorway. She was wearing her gray jacket with the pink accents, but since it wasn’t all that cold out she was

Cali thought for a moment. “Yeah, that would probably be all right.” She grabbed a pair of black boots from the shelf. “Let’s try your stuff on with these, just to see how it all looks.” They threaded their way between the racks to a row of dressing booths fronted by long purple curtains. “In you go, girl,” Cali said, handing Leesa the boots. Katy Perry was singing “Last Friday Night” as Leesa ducked behind the curtain. She hoped Friday night’s party was not going to be quite as wild as the song. She hung the shirts and leggings on plastic hooks and dropped the boots onto a narrow wooden bench. Feeling just a bit nervous, she took off her jeans and pulled the leggings on, then slipped the silk shirt on over them. Not a whole lot of light filtered in from the top of the dressing booth, but she didn’t think the combination looked too bad, at least not in the grimy dressing booth mirror. She had to admit, the combination of the long shirttails over the tight leg

Chapter 159

Josef strolled southward along the side of the highway in north central Vermont, in no real hurry. Twice now, once in Canada and once here in Vermont, a driver had stopped to offer him a lift. He graciously accepted the ride each time. When there were no rides offered, he was content to walk. This stretch of road was not very heavily traveled at night, but dressed all in black as he was, whenever he saw headlights approaching he simply edged farther to the side and let the car pass. There was some snow along the edges of the shoulder, but it had been plowed pretty far back, giving him plenty of room to remain safe. He did not begrudge the tiny delays caused by each passing vehicle.When there were only four of you hunting a man of wisdom and experience who did not want to be found, you learned to be patient. Unless Dominic made a mistake or was forced to employ his magic, they would need to be very lucky to find him. Time was on their side, though. The longer Dominic remained
