The closer they got to the hotel, the more jumpy Jolene became. She sensed something wasn’t right. Or maybe she was just reacting to Morgan’s nervous energy. Although Morgan was trying to act nonchalant, Jolene could see she was on alert, her eyes constantly darting about as they walked. Jolene knew Morgan’s intuition was telling her to be cautious.

Jolene spent the time not thinking about Mateo. Well, not hardly. He hadn’t called or texted her. She shouldn’t be surprised. He often just disappeared without even saying goodbye. It was his modus operandi. She wondered if he was off with the long-haired beauty she’d seen him with. Did he kiss her after their meal, too?

Thoughts of Mateo were crowded out of her mind by a surge of energy as they approached the door to their hotel room.

Morgan felt it, too, and shot her arms out to stop Fiona and Celeste from entering. “Something’s not right,” Morgan whispered.

Celeste put the to-go bag with Belladonna’s lox on the floor and the sisters dialed up their energy levels, each of them knowing they might need to call on the full power of their gifts if they were attacked.

Morgan slipped the key card into the lock quietly.

Click.

She shoved the door open and the four of them sprang inside, clutching their obsidian amulets and summoning all their energy, ready to defend themselves against whoever was waiting inside.

“Meow!” Belladonna leaped down from the counter and leisurely trotted over to them.

The sisters carefully checked each room, but Jolene knew they wouldn’t find anyone. Belladonna would never have been so lackadaisical if an intruder was in there.

But someone had been in there. Jolene could see the energy trail. “Someone was here.” Jolene pointed at the floor as if her sisters could see the fading trail of brown energy.

“Did they take something? Where did they go?” Fiona asked.

But the energy trail traipsed all over the hotel suite and was quickly fading. “It looks like they went everywhere.”

“That’s odd. I wouldn’t think Belladonna would let anyone in here,” Celeste said.

Jolene remembered the white and black cats she'd chased down the alleyway. “Maybe Belladonna wasn’t here.”

At first glance, it didn’t look like anything had been taken or disturbed, but Jolene called upon her photographic memory to remember how the hotel room had looked when they'd left. She could tell that the papers that had been on the desk had been moved carefully and put back. “Someone did look through our things. It’s subtly different. It’s almost as if they didn’t want us to know they were here.”

“Was it a paranormal?” Fiona asked.

“Possibly, but not the same energy trail that I saw at Amity Jones’ house,” Jolene said.

“Maybe we have more than one paranormal on our trail,” Celeste suggested.

“Mew!” Belladonna’s tail and ears went up and she trotted over to the door sniffing underneath.

“Someone’s out in the hall,” Morgan whispered as she tiptoed over to the door.

Jolene, her energy still at full power, sensed it, too.

Celeste got on one side of the door and the other three lined up on the other side.
