After drying off, I rummaged through the armoire. I slipped on a pair of black pants that hugged my curves and a black, long-sleeved top with a cinched waist. If only I had my makeup kit, I could have pulled the look together with a bold lip. Maybe Iâd ask Elysium if one of the magical doors led to a makeup counter. Something told me that vampires had superb cosmetics to match their impeccable gothic style. Iâd only just arrived at Belladonia, and I should have been terrified of being surrounded by vampires, but the city felt familiar in all its eerie darkness. In Ash Grove, the strange was hiding in plain sight. In Belladonia, the strange was decorated with stone gargoyles, horse-drawn carriages, and ornate magical doors. They highlighted all their oddities, and something about that made me feel at home. Though my heart still twisted at the thought of Ash Grove. How could I ever go back?
I surveyed myself in the mirror, twisting my brown hair into a messy French twist. Ames would have gone crazy for this outfit if heâd been here. He loved me in black. I missed him and Wolfgang and Raven. My heart ached for them to be near, and I hoped that Onyx would return with both dinner and the guys. We could all share this little room and continue what weâd started on the pirate ship â¦
Riding the elevator to the main level, I noted the intricate gold-flaked wallpaper and embellished rugs. It reminded me of Vincentâs tent and the Phantom Circus. A circus and a coven I was itching to learn more about. And the way the phantom, or chaos magician, as Ames called him, looked at me through the flames? Did they suspect I was a reaper? Ames had led the charge in hiding my true nature from the world, and I appreciated the security while I sorted through this new world.
But I was slowly learning that I couldnât hide forever. At some point, Iâd have to embrace whatever abilities I had and move through this realm as my own person, not just as someone belonging to the Halloween Boys. As long as I had the guys with me, it was impossible to need anything.
Theyâd always protect me fiercely. But what if a day came that I needed to protect myselfâor them? The Moon Halo Coven thought me to be a liability, a danger to their home. But what if I could show them that I could be a protector of the town we all loved? Would they accept me then? The last thing I wanted was a war with the witches. Regardless of the Halloween Boysâ past with them, theyâd been kind to me. Yesenia had been my first friend when I found myself alone and afraid in October. I wondered if she hated me now for what Iâd done to Piper. Whatever Iâd somehow invited into her psychic circle only proved the witchesâ point. I was dangerous. At least I had time to figure out a plan while we searched for Onyxâs family.
