The animals in the forest are whispering to me in alarm, Dominic,” Nicu said as they gathered in the great room on the next rising. “I patrolled to the south of your home. There was no sign of the undead, but every bird, every monkey, even the smallest of them, seemed to be uneasy. When I asked them what kind of creature had passed through, they whispered, Unsavory. Vile. Traitor.”

Dominic exchanged a long look with his lifemate and then Jubal Sanders. “Did these animals show you any images of the creatures coming through their territories?”

Nicu shook his head. “I asked, but they only kept to their shelters. I didn’t push them but intend to return. I thought it best to warn you first.”

“You did not feed yet,” Sandu observed.

Nicu shook his head. “I did not waste any time getting back here in case the danger was to Dominic’s family. I didn’t want to use telepathy because I had no knowledge of what I was dealing with.”

Sandu studied Dominic’s features even as he brought Adalasia closer to him, sweeping his arm around her shoulders. He had been about to take his leave but would not if there was a threat to Dominic’s family.

“We can use the pathway of the brethren,” Sandu suggested. “Should this danger be the work of the undead and his pawns, they would not hear. I will reach out to the others. If they have run across any threat, we will have more information.”

“I’ll go looking,” Jubal volunteered. He stood. “I have a feeling—”

“No.” Jasmine looked as if she might burst into tears. “No, Jubal, you can’t.” She looked to Dominic even as her slender fingers wrapped around Jubal’s wrist, as if she might be able to physically hold him there.

“You and Sandrine will be safe here, Jasmine.” Jubal’s voice gentled. “No one can find you here. Dominic and Solange have safeguards to keep everyone out.”

Sandu could have told him Jasmine wasn’t worried for her daughter or herself. She didn’t want Jubal going out into the rain forest, where something unknown could harm him.

Dominic waved Jubal to his chair. “We do need to gather more information before any of us goes hunting, Jubal. I would appreciate you contacting the others, Sandu. Nicu, you need to feed, especially if you plan to go back out there immediately.”

Very casually, without waiting for an answer from Nicu, he lifted his wrist to his mouth and tore a line in the flesh with his teeth so the bright blood bubbled up instantly. Nicu bent his head to the offering.

Brothers, Nicu has encountered strange occurrences among the animals. Sandu sent the images to the three guardians still out. On rising, each had gone his own way to find blood. Be on the lookout for anything unusual and report back to us. We need to gather as much information as possible. There is an old enemy possibly stalking Dominic’s family.

Benedek was the first to answer. I took the form of a harpy eagle and flew to the fishing village.
