Chapter Sixteen

I looked down at the amulet in my hand. It felt good to hold the Revelation. In the two days since I’d driven back from the Ozarks, I spent a lot of time with the item. I held it and inspected it often. When I wasn’t using it, I wore it around my neck and found my fingers playing with it even as I thought and did other things. It was mine, and it liked being mine.

It was, as Felicity had said, an odd little piece of jewelry. It was fashioned from gold, although knowing it had been made by an alchemist’s hand, I wondered what that gold had started out as. The amulet itself was teardrop shaped, the center a large, near-perfect diamond. If I looked closely I could see a golden strand of hair trapped in the diamond. It was oddly beautiful. It stopped glowing around me the second day I wore it. According to Felicity’s information, this was because now the amulet was used to me. It was primed to its owner.

All around me, music throbbed and club goers danced and drank and generally partied. Ether was packed. The moon was new, and when the wolves weren’t running, they liked to get their drink on. I ignored everything around me, watching the amulet as it started to gently pulse. Every time I managed to get the sucker to work, a little thrill went through me.

West. He wasn’t making this easy on me. The dance floor was between me and my target. Using the amulet was like a game of hot or cold. I had to pay very close attention or I would get off track and have to figure out where I’d gone wrong. If I tried to go around the gyrating werewolves, I could lose the signal. It was odd. I could get fairly close to some wolves, but the minute the bouncer named Kevin walked into the room, the Revelation went dead. I had to make sure Kevin was working the line outside the club if I wanted to practice with it. I’d decided it had to have something to do with how strong the wolf or vampire was. It immediately went dead when Neil walked in the room, even faster than it did with Kevin.

Dev had made sure he was off tonight, and Neil had a date with Chad, so I could practice with relative ease. The pulse became stronger, and through the crowd I caught a glimpse of what I sought.

Dev leaned against the wall, one foot propped up behind him. He’d been patiently allowing himself to be experimented on for the last couple of days. The Revelation recognized him, though I suspected the effect would be stronger when I went looking for Felix Day. Dev and I had been playing hide and seek all night.

“That was fast,” he said over the noise as I joined him. “You’re getting better with that thing.”

I placed the amulet back around my neck, a sense of satisfaction flowing through me.
