Chapter Fourteen

She had just slammed her bedroom door behind her when her phone rang. Blue fumbled with it, excitement and relief filling her as she read Harlow's name across the screen.

“You better have a good excuse!” she shouted into the phone, only to hear nothing but static. “Harlow, answer me, where are you?” she pleaded. Still, there was nothing but rustling and what sounded like white noise. “Answer me, goddamnit, Harlow!” Blue yelled as she paced her in her bedroom.

Suddenly, her bedroom door flew open to reveal a worried looking Jasper on the other side. He must have followed her.

“I don’t know what to do, she won’t answer me!” Blue panicked as he strode into the room and took her into his arms. She was shaking, the phone still pressed to her ear. Out of all the horrors she’d seen in her life, the mere thought of Harlow being in real danger was almost enough to cripple her. She was all the family Blue had left. She couldn’t lose her.

“Shh, calm down, baby. Let me see the phone.” He was trying to calm her down, but it wasn’t working. Still, she handed him her cell phone with shaking fingers and watched as he brought it up to his ear. “Harlow, if you can hear me, say something!” he commanded, but from the look on his face and the harsh set of his jaw, he wasn't getting results either. “When was the last time you spoke to her?” he asked Blue.

“Why does everyone keep telling me what to do?! Do you even understand how long I’ve been out there on my own? I'm not a fledgling! My sister… my only family I have left might be dead and I'm just sitting here doing nothing!” She stood and paced in front of him.

“I'm not telling you to do nothing, but Portland is a battlefield right now. Human police barely know what to make of it and Slayer teams have already been dispatched.”

Rolling her eyes, she threw her hands in the air. “So that means we should just what, twiddle our thumbs and go to math class? Are you shitting me? This place is just as compromised; look at what happened to Savannah! I don’t care how dangerous it is, I’m going to find Harlow with or without any of your help because we all know the Conclave and their teams are as useless as the humans are.” Blue walked to her chest of drawers and pulled out a pair of black leather pants and a long-sleeved black shirt.
