There was no time to waste. The longer I waited, the higher the likelihood Darius would do something to inflict pain on Easton. He was a sadistic motherfucker and could hold a grudge like a bitch. And he did.

Which was why, even though I was the one that called a meeting with him, he’d try to punish me for not being on time by hurting Easton.

Hew had tried to follow the vampire, but he wasn’t fast enough and didn’t have a sense of smell as acute as the wolves to turn out any results, so it had proved futile.

“I’m coming with you,” he said when he finally gave up trying to locate the vampire.

“No, you’re not,” I said. “Darius doesn’t do outsiders. He’s hardly tolerating me anymore now that I’m a witch. He won’t have you for sure.”

Hew smiled and placed his hands on his hips. “I’m flattered, but I’m still coming.”

“Okay, then do you want to prepare Easton’s eulogy and explain to Troy why he’s dead? Because that’s what’s going to happen if you come with me.”

“At least let me stay close by in case you need me.”

Darius would still be able to smell him from afar, and I couldn’t risk it in any which case. So there was no option but to go to him alone.

I was fine with that. I was prepared for that. Even if Hew wasn’t.

“I’m going to Darius. You should go and find the others and tell them what happened. I’ll meet you at Wade’s apartment at dawn.”

The night was getting darker and far more sinister than expected. The landlord of the human pub had started shouting at us as soon as the confusion of what had happened had worn off, and I’d had to intercept his emotions with calm and serenity, him and the rest of the punters, to be able to get back to our work without further interruptions. Hew fixed the door with magic, and we were now standing in the alley next to the bar that Hew had used to get in and out of his raven form.

“I don’t like leaving you on your own,” Hew said, his eyes creased with worry.

“I’ll be fine. I can take care of myself,” I said.

Hew let out a puff of air. “I know you can, but that doesn’t make it any easier. There’s a lot at stake here. You can’t fail. You can’t let them win.”

“I won’t.”

“Please be careful,” Hew said.

“Always,” I replied and gave him a hug to reassure him. I channeled some confidence into him for good measure so that when I left, he wasn’t inclined to follow and keep an eye on me.

I’d already made many mistakes tonight, the first one being trusting any vampire. I didn’t want to keep piling on more mistakes.

Walking away from Hew felt a little bit like saying goodbye when it shouldn’t have felt that way. I was going to see him in less than twelve hours. Him, Wade, and everyone else. And so was Easton.
