Annabelle sipped her coffee, her hands shaking. Her ordeal, though brief, had obviously shaken her more than she wanted to admit. The witch had always been so strong, but to find that she could be taken down so easily couldn’t have sat well with her.

Gen hoped Annabelle would recover quickly. Having your confidence in yourself and your abilities shaken so thoroughly was a tough burden to bear. She had no doubts Annabelle would be able to do so. Her will was greater than her fear.

But Gareth was right. They needed to know how Hugh got to Annabelle, and if she had any idea where Kerry might be. Time was of the essence, and Annabelle might not even realize she had information unless they questioned her.

Besides, Gen was exhausted. Rushing out the door to find Kerry wasn’t going to happen, not tonight anyway.

“Tell us what happened.” Lana wasn’t moving far from Annabelle’s side. The coven leader’s granddaughter was still distraught, the tracks of her tears still visible on her cheeks.

Chris sat next to his mate, his arm around her shoulders, giving her silent comfort. This had shaken her badly, and Gen figured he wouldn’t be leaving her side any time soon. Any thought of returning to his home in Pennsylvania with his mate was out of the question, at least while Hugh and Arthur were out there. If they could get to Annabelle, one of the most powerful coven leaders on the East Coast, they could get to Lana, and that was something Chris would give anything to prevent. Even his beloved, private home.

“I was heading to Kerry’s house to see if she’d heard from you, Genevieve.”

Gen winced at Annabelle’s bland tone. Damn it. She should have called Kerry, but she’d been so caught up in the queen drama she’d completely blown it off.

“I was walking up the steps when I felt something strike me from behind. I recognized dark magic and tried to deflect, but the curse had already begun to take effect.” Annabelle grimaced. “I think I bloodied him, but that’s it. I collapsed there on the steps.”

“Did you see or sense anything else out of the ordinary?” Gen leaned forward, focusing on matching Annabelle’s account to the visions she’d received earlier that evening. “When Zach, Daniel and I did a vision quest, we saw—”

“Wait. Did you say Daniel?” Annabelle turned her shocked gaze on Daniel. “You took part in this ritual?”

“It was the oddest thing, Grammy.” Lana made a triangle with her fingers. “There were these lines of light that led from one to the other, each one the color of their magic. And I know for a fact Daniel saw something, because his face looked just like Gen and Zach’s.”

Gen shot Daniel a startled look, but if he truly had seen something he wasn’t sharing.

Daniel still had a scowl on his face, and his eyes still held that feral, golden light that said his wolf was close to breaking free of Daniel’s control. “Did you see what happened to Kerry? She’s missing.
