Maximus Compass

Rational thought had long since faded from my mind. Instinct was all I had.

“Are you ready, brother? You remember the plan, right?” Braxton was calmer now that he had Jessa back, but the beast still shone from his eyes.

He cared about Mischa. I was way past that. Caring was an insipid word compared to what I felt at this point.

As we stepped through the final magical portal, Braxton growled, his eyes flashing from yellow to blue. He was in protective mode: no one touched his pack and lived. Which was why he had incinerated all evidence of the supe smuggling operation before we left.

Jacob, Jessa, and Tyson then went back to Stratford to alert the council of what we’d found. The supes who’d been in the cages around us were escorted to the sanctuary, where they would be able to decide where to go next. Louis, Braxton, and I went after Mischa.

I was desperate to find Mischa, and desperate to kill the son of a bitch who took her. Louis had picked up a magical essence from the fey stones Kristoff used to purchase Mischa, which he had then used to amplify a connection he sensed between me and Mischa. His step through had led us to a land of cold, stark, desolate expanses of wilderness.

“Russia,” Louis murmured as we moved freely. I did recognize some of the landscape now. We were in northern Russia, near the supernatural prison town of Kreatsky.

The wizard who’d run the smuggling ring had admitted that Kristoff was more than just a simple “buyer,” he’d actually been instrumental in setting up the entire thing. He was the one who made deals with the demons. I tried not to think too hard on it, considering he had Mischa and I was already fearing for her safety.

Goddammit! I focused on putting one foot in front of the other and trying to mentally reach for Mischa. The connection was there, strangely tenuous but it was there. Weirdly enough, it almost felt like the more Cardia’s bond faded from my body, the stronger the connection was between Mischa and me. And my baby. They weren’t dead, I knew that much, but the flickering of the bond was causing me great concern. Mischa was hurt. The taste of dark magic and blood was strong across my senses. And since it wasn’t coming from me, it was definitely from her.

“Hurry!” I bit out, increasing my pace and forcing the mage to step up. He was the one directing this search party, and I hated following when I wanted to charge ahead.

“Patience, vampire. There’s dark magic washed all across this area. It is very hard to pinpoint the actual location when I am sifting through all the waste.”

My answer was lost in the growls as I lunged for him. Braxton caught me before I managed to make contact. “We need him! You can’t kill him yet.”

Louis shook his head. We were sprinting across the tundra now, slipping on mud and ice. “No idea why I bother with you all.
