We drove in tense silence for a couple of hours. The three of us were tired, hungry, and Wyatt was hurt. We needed to stop at the next town to rest, eat, clean Wyatt’s wound, and to switch our truck. We had been with this one for almost two days now and hadn’t gone too far. Soon, we would be seen with it and we would have a new problem on our tail.

But as Ariella turned into the next town on our path, we noticed shadow fae crawling just outside the town’s limit. Some hid among the trees, others patrolled the road like guards on a cross-country border.

Without a word, Ariella turned the truck around and continued on the highway.

We tried stopping by the next town, but it was more of the same.

When Ariella turned the truck around, I couldn’t stay quiet. “I have a feeling they will be crowding all towns around here.”

“Then we keep going, until we find one where they aren’t,” Wyatt said from the passenger seat, his voice faint. His face was paler than before, and his hand clutched his side with too much force.

“What if they have fae from here to the border to Alaska?” I asked, leaning forward on the front seats. “You won’t be able to shift and carry me like we did last time hurt. You need medical attention now.”

Wyatt glanced at Ariella. “You’re an angel. Don’t you have healing powers?”

Ariella shook her head, her eyes on the road. “It doesn’t work like that,” was all she said.

Wyatt turned his hazel eyes to me, the light in them dim. “We’ll figure something out. We always do.”

Frustrated, I sat back on my seat and fished the golden medallion from my pocket.

When Ariella had used her light to help us escape from Daleigh’s trap, I had crawled to the nearest shadow fae and stole his medallion. This was the only way for a fae to cross over to the fae realm.

“I might have an idea,” I said, my voice low.

“What is it?” Ariella asked, glancing at me through the rearview mirror.

“We go to the fae realm.” I held up the medallion so they could see it. “With this.”

Wyatt’s eyes bugged. “That’s why you stopped when we were leaving. You got one of those.”

I nodded. “The frost fae’s medallions were taken away when we were banished here, but I knew the shadow fae must carry these all the time. So I snatched one up. Just in case.” I smoothed my thumb over the medallion’s rugged surface. “Now it might be handy.”

“I always wanted to go to the fae realm,” Ariella said, her tone lighter than a moment before. “I’m in.”

“Wait.” Wyatt twisted his torso, so he could look at me better. He winced, probably from the pain on his side, but he tried to hide it. “Let’s think this through. We go to the fae realm and what? As far as I know, if a werewolf and an angel are seen there, we’ll be killed on the spot.
