Chapter 15

All around me, people were talking over one another, most seemed friendly enough while others seemed to be on the edge of arguing with one another. I was just trying to eat my porridge.

I’d woken up that morning clearheaded and well-rested, feeling confident in my choice to align myself with the people here, whoever they were, but my resolve was shattering by the second.

Spooning another bite into my mouth, I tried to consider my options. The problem was, I didn’t really have any. A look out of the window in my room this morning showed nothing but green for as far as I could see. Even taking Nina at her word that we were still close to the city, I didn’t actually know where I was. When Tate had come to show me where I could find breakfast, we’d walked past the same front hall where we’d appeared the night before. The massive front door had been open to the driveway, and I hadn’t been able to find anything that looked like it might be a doorway back to the pub.

Until someone was willing to drive me home, I was stuck in this place. And home was another problem all together.

My phone was quickly filling with unreturned messages from Taya. Where was I? Was I okay? She really was sorry? And oh yeah, where was I?

The only break in her badgering was another message from Ethan, checking in again to see if I was okay. This time around, I made myself respond, not sharing too much but at least giving him something resembling an all clear. He’d been helpful to me, nice even. If he’d been human, and just some guy I met at a pub, he’d be someone I’d want to spend more time with. Against my better judgement, I liked him and knew he’d deserved some kind of answer.

But when it came down to it, he was still one of them. And I didn’t know for sure how involved he was with the idea to out some of the lesser magicks to the humans, just to see what would happen.

So where did that leave me? Wolves and witches lurked in Galway, and they knew who I was. The vampires and fae should have arrived by then as well, and there was a very good chance they’d been filled in on all the big news. Someone had tried to kidnap the Alphas daughter; the same people may have killed one of the fae to prove a point. And that child of prophecy from a million years ago? Oh yeah, she’s here too.

My throat going dry, I took a long sip of juice to try and force the rest of my food down. It was the first time I’d considered how my involvement was going to look. The factions learned of my whereabouts right when everything else started happening. Sure, I’d been here all along, but even I could admit the whole thing was a little strange.

"Are you alright?"
