Chapter Eleven

After overcoming the uncomfortableness I felt leaving the queen’s chambers, I realized we had no real plan. At least, not one I was aware of. We knew what we were supposed to do, but I had no idea how we were going to do it. I had assumed we were meeting with Queen Navi so she would give us guidance, but that didn’t happen.

Frustratingly so, I was feeling completely lost and we’d only just begun.

“So, what now?” Jordan asked, running her hands through Dom’s mane as we stood on the castle steps.

Everyone looked to Stryx, but it wasn’t him that answered.

“Now, your circus show follows me into the lair of your worst enemies.” Brooke appeared from nowhere, her stealth unprecedented by anyone else I’d met so far. It was no wonder she worked so closely for the queen.

“Circus show? Okay, bloodsucker.” Jordan rolled her eyes, clearly not as impressed with the vampire as I was.

“Is she always this surly?” Brooke asked me.

“No, but snarky, yes. She likes to keep things interesting, but something tells me you do as well.”

Brooke and Jordan had been on guard around each other before, which I contributed to Jordan being wary of the newcomer, but hopefully that wouldn’t last long. We didn’t need any added tension as we searched for the vampires, gnomes, and succubi.

Jordan and Dom were in conversation, and I went to Ryland, the bond between us reminding me it had been a while since we’d been near enough. Casually, I brushed my arm against his and turned back to the others.

“So, is that what we’re doing? Going to find the vampires first?” I asked.

Stryx flew to me and I held my hand to him, then put him on my shoulder. “Given we have Brooke’s help now and can’t guarantee it later, I think that’s the best course of action.”

“Why don’t we just use the blood from Brooke? She is a vampire,” Oliver suggested.

“Because she is not the vampire we need,” Stryx answered.

Sigh. Of course, there was going to be a specific one.

“I know some people who can help us. Queen Navi told me what you need, and I already have some connections doing leg work for us. We’ll be done in the wind sector in record time. Then, I’d recommend searching for the succubi. Small pockets of them still exist, and you’ll either find them hidden amongst the vampires or in the water lands.”

“What about the gnomes?” I asked.

“They’re in this section, but further out where there aren’t as many people. We have to come back here for the queen to cast the final spell for the dagger. So, we won’t be wasting time by bypassing them now,” Stryx answered.

I turned to ask Brooke a question about the vampires, but she was in a heated discussion with Oliver, so I left her alone. Whatever was going on between them, I hoped they worked it out or I got the chance to figure out what the problem really was, and maybe help.

“Well, let’s get moving then.
