The door to Penelope’s lab had barely shut behind us when I received a call from Millhook through my orb.
“Perfect timing, we’re headed back now,” I said when his face appeared.
Millhook’s eyes darted away from the orb, as if he were looking at something outside of my view. “Oh, good, good. I don’t want to worry you or anything but…”
My heart leapt. “What is it? Is Nicole all right?”
“Oh, she’s fine, it’s just that we kinda had to change locations.”
“Change locations? Why?” For the first time I noticed the wall behind him was a different bland color than the one we had left.
“Just remember, we’re fine. No need to worry. But I did sense a mage outside our room. So as a precaution, we changed our location. We just hopped over to Maui.”
“What do you mean there was a mage there? How did they find us?” We had gone to a random hotel in Hawaii to avoid this very thing.
“I don’t know, but we didn’t bring anything to Maui except for Nicole’s computer, just in case. We can try to figure it out later. If you’re ready to come back, I’ll be there in a jiffy to make a portal for you.”
“Yeah, we’re ready to go. We’ll meet at the same spot as last time.”
Millhook’s face disappeared, and I started to speed walk through the streets of Concordia to our meeting place.
“How is it possible anyone found us?” Alex asked.
“I have no idea, unless Sadie planted some kind of tracker when we saw her. But even then, I don’t see how it could’ve gotten by me and Millhook. And it doesn’t make sense that only now would it be causing a problem. No, there’s something else going on.”
“Do you think we’ll be safe staying on another island? Maybe we should convince Nicole to stay somewhere else.”
My stress level would significantly decrease if I knew Nicole was safe, but I doubted there was any way for me to convince her to leave without Millhook wiping her memory. I liked having her around, and she’d been incredibly helpful, but I was willing to give that up if it meant keeping her safe. However, it probably wasn’t the wisest choice. “Even if she did leave, my aunt could still use her as leverage. I’d rather have her with us, where Millhook can keep her safe when we’re not there.”
“Let’s not keep him away from her any longer than necessary. You forget where we’re at. No one will blink an eye at you riding on my back.” Alex shifted and took me the rest of the way to our meeting spot. He was right; no one gave us a second look.
When we arrived, the portal was ready and waiting with Millhook bouncing from foot to foot. “I figured you’d be in a hurry. And don’t worry, everything’s fine. Nicole didn’t even want me to message you, but I thought it might be a nasty surprise if I didn’t.”
“You did the right thing, Millhook.” I stepped through the portal and ran to give Nicole a hug.
