Although Stewart was unconscious, he was a living image of what they had seen in their minds. A glance at the ceiling told Alex that it was still intact but his table was totally demolished.

Damion and Jeremiah rushed to Stewart’s side and Alex immediately turned to Isabella. She had fallen to her knees, arms hanging loosely by her sides, and hyperventilated.

“Are you ok?” Deanna asked Isabella softly while she squatted down in front of Isabella. She reached out to touch her and recoiled as if she had been shocked.

“Isabella?” Alex said to her.

“Leave her be!” Victoria ordered. “She has exerted herself. We should be lucky that it even worked. She shouldn’t have been able to do that, yet; I didn’t think her magic was strong enough.”

“Well, apparently, it is strong enough,” Stewart called out from among the remains of his shattered table.

“Don’t be snotty, Stewart,” Danielle said firmly to him. “We need to talk to you.”

Danielle had gone to Jaiden’s bassinet and picked her up. She strode back and forth and bounced Jaiden up and down in order to sooth her.

“I figured you would,” Stewart said as he picked himself up out of the rubble and dusted himself off.

“Alex,” Isabella whispered. Her eyes were glazed, not focused on anything. She still panted and tried to catch her breath. “Help me up.”

He reached down, grabbed her underneath her arms and lifted her up. She sagged against him because her legs wouldn’t hold her.

“I did it?” she asked?”

“Yes, there he is.” Alex pointed at Stewart.

“Oh. Is he ok?”

“Uh huh, he’s fine.”

“Could someone get me some water?” she asked softly.

Deanna ran out of the room and into the kitchen while Chris picked up one of the chairs out of the pile of what was left of the table.

“Here.” He put the chair down next to Isabella.

“Thanks.”

Alex helped her into the chair just as Deanna returned with a huge glass of water.

Stewart still had the chains attached to his ankles and wrists, only they weren’t attached to a stone wall. It was as if Isabella’s thoughts had actually ripped them right out of the wall.

While Alex held the glass to Isabella’s lips, he eyeballed Stewart from the corner of his eye. His tanned body was covered in dirt and dried, black blood and his skin could barley be seen through the scab which covered his bare feet. His jeans were torn in several places and he had tons of bruises but his eyes were still filled with the defiance of their Stewart.

Stewart scanned the room, taking a survey of who was present.

“Well, let’s talk then.” He flicked his eyes toward Isabella.

Isabella was recovering quickly. “I’ll go.”

She stood up and went to take Jaiden from Danielle.

“Isabella…”

“It’s ok, Alex. I understand.”

“Are you sure?” he asked, not entirely satisfied with her leaving the room.

“Yes.” She nodded. “I’m fine.”

She made a shhh sound and bounced Jaiden a bit. Jaiden immediately softened her screams down to a dull cry.

Alex nodded and watched her leave with Jaiden. He knew she was still exhausted.
