Chapter Fourteen

Liam was outside checking the wards when I pulled up. As soon as he saw me, he ran to the Jeep to help me out of the car, doing a once-over like I was a porcelain doll. “I’m fine,” I assured him.

“I know. Randy told me, but I’m just checking. Did anything else happen on the way here?”

I shut the door and grumbled. “Only that Granny came to visit to tell me that someone must be telling the djinn to do these things because it would absolutely not be doing anything on its own. That’s not how djinn’s work. Also, we probably shouldn’t call her Granny anymore.”

Liam stared at me with a furrowed brow.

“Trust me.”

He shook his head. “Let’s just get you inside. We walked in and Gabe and Travis were right there, waiting. Liam gave them the quick update about what Granny had said.

Travis immediately spoke us, suggesting that we go see Dean. “If he’s playing us…”

“Randy called him,” I said.

“We know, but that doesn’t mean he’s not playing us. Even if it’s not him, it’s probably his father.”

That’s exactly what I’d thought, but I still had my reservations about it. Something about it just didn’t add up. “It couldn’t hurt to have another talk with him,” I finally said.

Travis pulled out his cell phone and touched a number on his screen. He held it to his ear, but all it did was ring and ring. He ended the call and tried again. “Fucking wonderful,” he said, ending the call again. “Now Dean’s not picking up. It won’t even go to voicemail.”

My insides churned. I stood from the stool, my heart racing. There was a possibility the djinn did something to Dean. Look what a djinn had done to Liam’s parents. I looked over at him, gaging his reaction, but his face was passive. “We have to go to the Reid’s house to find out what’s going on.”

Without speaking, Liam pulled on my arm and we were out the door just about as fast as we came in. Travis hopped in the driver’s seat with Liam in the passenger’s side, calling Randy to tell him to meet us over at the Reid’s.

I watched the way Liam’s jaw tensed and relaxed as if he were grinding away at his own teeth. After a moment, he turned to Travis, “What exactly did Walter say again?”

Travis rubbed his jaw. “He said not to get involved and that we should only tell them when we got the pull.”

“Which makes it sound like we should get the pull still.”

Travis shrugged. “It did to me, but…semantics. Who knows what they did?”

I looked inside myself, searching for the area that led me to black magic. I felt that it was right there, hovering at the surface, but it just wasn’t getting triggered. Why would a rogue djinn not be triggering it?

“We should probably tell them it’s showing itself to me now. Then, we won’t have to lie about what we’re doing,” I mentioned.

“Couldn’t hurt,” Travis said.
