CHAPTER EIGHT

MARY FORCED HER wolf to calm down. The atmosphere in the arena hit every nerve in her body and kept her heart beating hard. But she had to think. Her wolf was second in her alter being, despite its love of the energy in the air.

Her fae, which relied more on instinct than raw animal power and quick reactions, needed to have skin in the game as well. Fergus, do you want me to do a quick dreamglide? See if we missed anything? All I would need is for you to hold me close and let me rest my head on your shoulder.

You think you can create one in this noisy gathering?

Yes. I just need to be supported.

Go ahead then. He slid his arm tightly around her waist, drawing her close.

She leaned her head against his shoulder and dropped quickly into a deep meditation. What surprised her was that she didn’t fall unconscious, but instead remained upright. When they’d made love, she’d been fully awake in both realities. The same seemed to be true here. But being supported by Fergus gave her a sense of security.

The moment she was in her dreamglide, she telepathed, I’m in.

And you’re not unconscious?

No, I’m not, but it helps to have you support me since I’m on my feet.

This is changing too, isn’t it? Fergus asked.

Everything is. Within the dreamglide, she gained her bearings. She was directly above Fergus. All right, let me find out what’s going on.

She piloted the craft over the sand pit and headed immediately toward Sydon and his crew. When she was directly overhead, she moved slowly up the rows, but nothing seemed to be out of place. With the seats made of stone, little could be hidden.

Where are you now, Mary?

I’m over Sydon’s rogue troops but I’m not finding anything. They’re clean. I’m going to make a pass over the rest of the spectators.

Okay. Detail it for me.

She gave him a blow-by-blow as she made her way first around all the seats then outside at the north entrance, then the south. She made a quick trip over the surrounding pines as well. The forest looks clear.

Okay. Then get back here because the referee is heading down into the pit right now. The dominance challenge is about to start, and he’ll announce me first.

She smiled at the ‘get back here’ part. She could move the dreamglide to China, but she didn’t have to make the return trip to come back to herself. All she had to do was let the dreamglide go, which she did. She lifted her head. “I’m back,” she said aloud.

“That was fast.”

“I might have been over the forest, but in terms of distance, it doesn’t really exist. As real as the dreamglide is, it’s still a product of a dream sequence.”

The referee began his introduction of Fergus, listing his former rank as alpha of the Gordion Pack and his challenge to Sydon. No mention was made of the skewer, however.

She felt a tremor of pure excitement run through Fergus.
