Chapter Three

VERONICA HIT THE ENTER KEY and sat back, relieved he was on his way. She could hold out one day.

It was in the very next moment that she realized what a spectacularly awful decision it was to conjure Max first.

The plan had been to conjure reinforcements. What was Max to do against the Council? She’d so badly wanted him restored to her world she’d made an emotional decision instead of a tactical one. What was wrong with her? They could kill him yet again!

Shit.

He’d arrive in 23 hours and 59 minutes, and he’d need backup. She grabbed a dusty three-ring binder full of the old Council newsletters from when they still bothered to send them to her. She flipped through to get to the Now Vanquished section of each, always on the back page. Now Vanquished was the witches’ version of humankind’s police blotters. She needed an enemy of the Council to appear ASAP after Max appeared. But it couldn’t be a being that might harm Max. Or her. She rifled through. Various baddies had been photographed. Some killed, some sent off to other worlds.

Then she came upon the perfect ally: Jophius, a mini-bull dragon the size of large dog. He’d been kept caged by the Council for years as they tried to extract the names he knew, killed during an escape attempt. Oh, how Jophius hated the Council! Jophius would rip apart these witches like a bloody little banshee if he so much as scented them. But he didn’t have a problem with witches in general—just the Council. Perfect.

She repeated the process with the electrodes. This photo had been snapped during Jophius’ imprisonment. She covered the bars with the paper. She needed Jophius to arrive sans cage.
