CHAPTER 11

It was on a rooftop under the light of the moon that the phone call was made.

“Someone fucked up,” he said without preamble. “Adrian arrived almost two hours earlier than I was told to expect him.”

There was a short pause. “Has he discovered that you’re still alive?”

“No. I had the interior of the house taken care of. There’s nothing of me to be found in there.”

“Then there’s nothing to worry about.”

“The hell there isn’t!” Agitation forced his wings to unfurl and stretch, casting a massive shadow on the lawn below. “If he’s got any of his brain left, he’ll figure out someone’s been staying there.”

“I’m not prepared to say that’s a problem.”

“Because you want the shit to hit the fan. It’s what you’ve been working for all these centuries.” He heard the familiar creaking of Syre’s desk chair and his fists clenched. While the cat’s away, the rat will play…

“It’s not time yet, and Syre and Adrian are both focusing more on the virus than I expected them to. I assumed they’d concentrate on each other and the lycans. Anything that distracts them is a good thing right now.”

“Easy for you to say, you’re not out here hanging in the wind. I told you staying in Helena’s home was a bad idea.”

“Any other option would have left a trail in money, paper, or blood.”

The hardness of the voice on the other end of the line fired his temper further. He was a Sentinel. The vampire on the other end of the line would do well to remember that. “You didn’t seem concerned about those things when you talked about infecting entire neighborhoods with the pathogen.”

“Did you have a reason for calling me? Or did you just want to bitch?”

Gritting his teeth, he asked, “Any suggestions on where to hole up now?”

“The cabal in Anaheim has been eradicated. No one expects Torque to deal with it while both Syre and Vashti are in the field. You can have the entire compound to yourself. That’ll put you close to Adrian, but you know how to stay out of sight. Your only concern now is to live the mortal life you’ve been coveting. Go get laid or kill something for the hell of it. I’ll be in touch when it’s time for you to rise from the ashes.”

The line went dead. He crushed the burner phone to dust in his fist, his gaze trained on the lights blazing from Helena’s home across the street. Perhaps it was time to build his own army.

As he lifted into the air and flew away, the thought twisted through his mind…and found fertile ground in which to take root.
