Chapter 15

“Alec.” A voice called to him, dragging him out of the murk that he was in. He felt a touch on his shoulder as someone rolled him onto his back. “Dammit, wake up.”

Bright light flooded his eyes as he tried to open them and he squeezed them shut again.

“He’s coming around.” He recognized the voice this time. Petra.

He blinked as he looked up at her concerned face. She was dabbing his face with a cloth and he realized she was wiping the blood away.

“Where’s Loni?” His voice was hoarse as he spoke.

“Gone.” Petra’s words ripped through him like a jagged blade. “Dawson’s men took her.”

Alec’s skin went cold. “We need to find her.” He tried to get up but Petra forced him back down.

“We’ll get her. They took her alive so likely they’re not going to kill her.” Petra’s red hair fell over her shoulder as she leaned over him. “You’re not going to be any good if you don’t give it a minute or two to get it back together. The witch’s spellfire really did a number on you. I don’t ever remember seeing this much blood with spellfire before.”

“Dawson may just want to kill Loni himself.” Alec shrugged Petra off as he tried to push himself up. His mind swam for a moment and he lay back down and held his hand to his head as if it would stop the spinning.

“I told you to give it a little time.” Petra took his hand and helped him to a seated position. “But I didn’t really expect you to listen.”

“How is everyone else?” He winced at the sound of his own voice bouncing around in his head.

“I was at the front door and heard one of the sorcerer’s men fighting with Rider in the front yard.” Her green eyes looked troubled. “It gave me enough time to call for backup. Then everything went to hell.”

A feeling of foreboding overcame Alec. “Lyle was supposed to have the back door.”

“We found him.” Petra’s throat worked. “The witch burned him with spellfire and slit his throat.”

“Damn.” Alec rubbed his eyes with his thumb and finger. “Damn.”

He eased to his feet and everything seemed to come back together. “Tell me what happened with Loni.”

“I had just finished killing one of Dawson’s men when I looked out the window and saw Loni being forced into a car,” Petra said. “They took off before I could get out there. No license plate,” she added before he could ask.

He pushed his hand through his hair as he glanced around the kitchen. The drug dealer was dead in the corner, eyes and mouth wide with terror, a burn mark at the center of his forehead.

Alec looked from the body to the table. “Where are all the bottles of the drug?”

“They got every one of them.” Petra shook her head. “Before help arrived and Rider and I were fighting off the sorcerer’s men who came in after us from the front.”

Alec clenched his teeth and his fists then realized something was in his left hand.
