Reed parked in the pitted back lot, his headlights shining on the chain-link fence surrounding a round, two-story building. It had a gaping hole in the roof, and the stucco on the outside was cracked and broken in a few places.
“Looks great,” he said.
She chuckled. “You’re a horrible liar.”
He got out and pulled the seat forward to get his flashlight. “It definitely needs some work before it’s ready to change the world.”
“We told you that already. But it’s going to be amazing!” She caught his free hand as he clicked on the light. “Come on, I’ll show you around inside.”
He looked back over his shoulder at the parking lot. No other cars were around. No sign of her stalker. He faced forward again and realized his ankle wasn’t burning, either. Relaxing, he followed her to the locked gate.
She fiddled with her keys and finally got the lock open. “We had to put up the security fence after the Order broke in and planted C-4 under the stage.”
His eyes widened in surprise. “They were going to blow it up?”
She nodded, pulling open one of the doors. “Yeah. Nate found it before anything happened, but we installed security cameras and a fence after that. Like I said, the Order has been quiet for a few months now, though.”
“Could they really know about the Guardians?”
She shrugged. “It’s possible. Clio did find the parchment with the prophecy on it about men being marked by the gods to be Guardians, but she may not have been the first to translate it.”

Inside the future lobby, Erica rattled off where everything would be. Even in the dim lighting from his flashlight, her features were animated, her eyes bright. Damn, she was beautiful. This was another side of her passion, and it had nothing to do with sex and everything to do with inspiring others to find something they love.
There was going to be a large meeting room, as she’d mentioned to him earlier, and she was planning a wall of quotes and song lyrics designed to encourage dialogue and dreaming. She made it easy to believe that anything was possible. With her help, people would strive for their passions and make them realities.
His chest warmed as she reached for his hand and led him through another set of double doors. The theater’s auditorium was lined with seats that had seen too much rain and sun, but through Erica’s eyes, they were new and inviting.
She dragged him down the aisle toward the stage, then pulled back the tarp covering it and ran her hand along the edge of the stage. “See how smooth it is? We sanded it down to the original hardwood. Once we get the roof fixed, we’re going to seal it, and then we’ll start on the stage curtains. Have you
