I dreamed of the white crows again that night.

The next morning, I stopped by the supermarket and waited for an opportunity to speak to Tamara.

“I need to get my hands on some occillite,” I said in a low voice, leaning over to ensure that only she heard. The store was empty but you never knew. “I have an uber vampire threatening me and my weapons aren’t going to be enough!”

Tamara’s eyes widened.

“If you really don’t know where that guy is who came back with you, you’ve got to help me get in touch with someone who has the stuff!”

Tamara bit her lip, then nodded.

“Okay, I’ll see what I can do.”

I couldn’t shake my nervousness all day.

I had the feeling the crows had been sent to warn me and I kept looking over my shoulder, checking behind me, jumpy as all getout. For the first time in weeks, I thought of the medicine man’s words; the ones that had confused me so. About me having a mission and having work to do. What was he talking about? I knew it meant something but not what it could be.

In the late afternoon, Jack called me, triumphant.

“I did it!” he said.

He had managed to win over the board. He was able to show how one of the board members, Dominique Le Bruin, had conspired with Natania to hack into his email and frame him. Le Bruin had not shown up for the board meeting and was later found in her bathtub, drowned. In a suicide note found at her house, she apologized for the hack, saying that she’d made a mistake and couldn’t face up to it.

“I don’t think she acted alone, though,” he mused. “She wasn’t the sort of person to have come up with this by herself. I can’t see the motive. I need to dig deeper.”

But for now, the board was satisfied that he had fixed the error and was able to make up for his lapse in attention.

“One of the other board members had a go at me, saying that I had missed a few things at work, hinting at me being distracted.”

“Bastard,” I said, as the dig was aimed at me too.

Jack laughed. “I think Natania was hiding other things from me too. I thought it had been quiet! Meanwhile, there was a scandal at one of our Italian branches that was lighting up on social media.”

“We have to be more careful,” I said, and Jack told me not to worry. He was going to appoint a new daytime CEO as well. He felt Max should’ve taken care of the problems.

“I’m going to spend another day or so out here, then we are going away for the weekend, what do you think?”

“Away?” I wasn’t sure about that.

“Can Princess stay with Tina for one night? I want to take you to a restaurant in Martha’s Vineyard. We’ll fly in for the weekend.”

“Fly in for the weekend?” It sounded a bit much to me. “You don’t even eat in restaurants.
