We ended up staying at Caleb’s parents’ house until they returned due to our apartment needing some minor repairs. Thankfully, it wasn’t anything that couldn’t be fixed in a few days.

When the SUV pulled up the day of his parents’ return, we all waited outside the house, knowing it was bound to be a rambunctious reunion.

As expected, when Caleb’s dads got out of the vehicle, they immediately headed for him, pouncing on him in the grass as well as Riddick and to their surprise, Branson and Triston.

Jolie pulled me into a bone crunching hug. “Oh, Ember! Are you okay? You poor thing. I think I may have cursed you with my danger attraction.”

I returned her hug, trying not to cry at the emotions swirling within me as she voiced her honest concern for my safety and hugged me like I’d always wished my mother would have. “I’m okay,” I reassured her. “They kept me safe and with the ability to hide in your house, we were good.”

She pushed me back and frowned down at me. “You’ve changed.”

My brows rose. “What?”

Her frown turned into a smile. “In a good way. You’re finally accepting that you are part of their pack and that you aren’t a stinky little hermit anymore.”

“Hey!” I said, but laughed knowing I did on occasion smell pretty awful when I was up for several days in a row tending to an injured patient.

“They’re going to be fighting for a bit, come inside and tell me everything that’s happened, especially about your sleepover at Leona’s,” she said, linked her arm through mine, and pulled me into the house.

Glancing over my shoulder, I caught Caleb’s eye just long enough to get a wink from him.

Once inside, Jolie spun around and set her hands on my arms, whispering so quiet it was hard to hear her, “I heard you used a teleportation spell.”

I nodded.

“Good. You’re in more danger than you or Caleb realize. We did some investigating while we were on vacation and the roots of H.E. have spread even farther than we dared think. I am going to teach you a spell, one you must only use in the deadliest situation, one where you think all hope is lost.”

My eyes widened and my heart pounded as she stared into my eyes, relaying information that was terrifying.

“This spell, if done correctly and if your power is enough, will ensure that you can all get to safety. A friend of mine has premonitions and she urged me to teach you. I dare not ignore her.”

“What is the spell?” I asked.

“A portal spell,” she answered. “You can create a portal door to a place that you’ve been before. This spell is one you can create and open beneath the feet of yourself and your pack, to send them to a safe location. Like this house! It requires a lot of magic for a single portal, so we’re going to spend the next two weeks devoting every hour of your training to learning to make portals, to teleport not just yourself, but all five of you.
