CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

EMERSYN

What kind of instructions are “run fast”?

“Has anyone heard from Chutney or my parents?” Cooper asked after a few seconds of tense silence, his green stare locked on the doorway. “Did they make it?”

Uncle Kessler shook his head, his hands still gripping the door handle. “Not yet.”

Royce stared up the stairs behind us with a deep frown. “Tenn, are you part vampire? He has some you kind of speed.”

Tennessee rolled his eyes and shook his head, but there was a small smirk on his face he tried to hide. He stepped closer to the door and tugged my twin along with him. Their hands were locked together so tight their knuckles were white. “Focus, Royce.”

Everest chuckled, though his eyes were fastened on his watch. “Valid question.”

Tegan looked over her shoulder at the rest of us. “Lily, run and don’t stop until that Stone is in Salem. Don’t worry about us. Everyone else, be ready for anything.”

“Five…four…three…”

“Magic at the ready, friends,” Deacon mumbled.

My stomach dropped. My heart pounded. My nerves were completely shot. My magic surged to life, simmering just below the surface like it knew something I didn’t. I swallowed nervously and stared at Tegan and Tennessee’s interlocked hands. I was happy for them. Really, I was. I was grateful for whatever triggered Tennessee to forgive her trickery. But I would’ve been lying if I said I wasn’t jealous. Deacon was my soulmate, yet we didn’t have what they had. What would happen if I held his hand right now?

“NOW!” Everest yelled.

Uncle Kessler’s magic poured out of him. His arms shimmered like liquid gold. He pulled and pushed with his power…and the door flew open. Bright sunlight poured into the stone staircase. Tennessee and Tegan leapt out into the light, still clinging to each other.

I gasped and jumped into motion. My boots crunched through fresh snow. I squinted and tried to see where the arches Everest had referred to were, but I was blind. With the sun reflecting off the heaps of snow on the ground, I couldn’t see a damn thing. The sky and ground were the same shade of white. Snow dropped from the clouds in buckets. I wouldn’t have been able to see clearly even if I had windshield wipers on my eyes.

We sprinted in silence as fast as we could, but the snow was so soft and fresh that our feet sank with every step. The only sound I heard was my Coven-mates ragged breathing.

Tegan cursed and wiggled her fingers. Rainbow mist shot out from her hand and raised above us like a dome. The falling snow hit her magical barrier and evaporated. The snow under our feet hardened. A few steps later, it was like running on concrete. I grinned and pushed my legs to move faster. Once the sun set, those vampires would be on us in seconds.

“What is that ahead of us?” Royce screamed and pointed. “GUYS?”

I narrowed my eyes and tried to focus on what he pointed to, but I couldn’t make it out.
