Chapter Fifteen

Blythe called Dominic and cancelled the hunt for that night. She didn’t have the energy for it and she suddenly didn’t want to see him, not until she’d had time to sort out everything that had happened in the ten short minutes Patrick Sauvage had stood in her kitchen.

It was the luckiest break of her life, only she didn’t know that until much later in the night.

The twins were upstairs doing the mysterious things teenage girls did in their bedrooms and Blythe left them alone. She remembered the need for privacy when she had been that age and besides, she did trust them.

She settled down in front of the TV after dinner and pulled up a romantic comedy on Netflix, then patted the sofa next to her. “Come and watch,” she told Jake.

He wrinkled his nose. “A girlie movie?”

“I’m not putting on an action thriller. That’s the last thing either of us needs.”

He swallowed, then nodded. As he threw himself onto the sofa next to her with a heavy sigh, she tucked her arm around him and encouraged him to lean against her. “Relax, the blinds are drawn,” she told him.

He grinned. “Yeah, except I’ll still know my mother cuddles me.”

“I’m too old for teddy bears, so you’ll have to do.” She kept her tone light. If she let him think she was doing it for her sake, then he might cooperate.

He did. She could feel his body getting heavier against her side and in slow stages moved him down the sofa until his head was on her knee. Finally, he slept.

She pulled the blanket from the back of the sofa and dropped it over him. She let the movie continue to play, not really watching it. Her thoughts were too busy to focus on the story.

She had made sure her phone was on vibrate before she had started the movie, so when it rang, it shuddered its way across the top of the side table until she reached and picked it up.

“Peter…is everything okay?” she asked. Peter Mathur had insisted on heading out tonight with the rest even though she and Dominic would not be there. Peter and the others had learned a lot about hunting Summanus in the last few weeks. She figured a night of hunting on their own would sharpen the skills even more.

Heavy panting sounded and in the background, she could hear screaming.

“No,” Peter gasped. “It’s not okay.”

She made herself stay still so she didn’t wake Jake. “What happened?” Whatever it was, it sounded like it was still happening.

“They’re coming your way. Shut all your windows. There’s thousands of them. They’re like locusts, only worse. Nothing stops them.”

Her heart squeezed. “Stops what? Peter?”

“Oh, God…!” he cried.

Then the screaming started and this time it wasn’t in the background. Peter was screaming into the phone.

She disconnected. With her heart doing funky wild things, she eased herself from under Jake’s head and put a cushion under him instead. Then she moved around the house, shutting all the windows and locking them tight.
