Larkin shut the census book, a huge tome that sat proudly on a pedestal. “Okay, so we have an address for Payne,” he said. “He’s living in the cottage on Academy grounds. He’s the new psychology professor.”
Lunar Creek was a place filled with supernatural creatures, most of whom didn’t have a clue they were supernatural. A few, like Trinity and her misfit friends, had figured out they were different and taken it upon themselves to protect the village from harmful forces. They also all happened to be tutors at the local Academy. The majority plodded along in blissful oblivion.
“So, we find the nest,” Kash said. “Tip Trinity and her team off about the location—an anonymous call should do it—and let them wrap up the case. Once the case is over, the weavers won’t be looking at footage of them sleeping, so then we find Payne and convince him to come with us.”
“All in the space of four hours.” Larkin looked at me. “When I say we leave, we leave, regardless, are we clear?”
I pushed away the doubt. “We’re clear.”
“Good.” He headed back to the census tome.
“What are you doing?” Kash asked.
“Phone number for the Lane residence.” He scanned the page and then nodded. “Got it.” He tapped his chin with a claw. “Now, if I were a sucker, where would I nest?”
Both Larkin and Kash turned to look at me.
“Hold up, I’m not a sucker, I’m a nightblood, and we do not nest, unless you call gathering for fancy balls nesting.”
Larkin made a meh sound and seesawed his head. “I suppose so. The suckers of the creek are primal, and their only focus is their next meal.”
I scanned my memories of the show. There had to be a place, a location that had been mentioned before to foreshadow the events of this season. The warehouse on the east side that had been used two seasons ago, or the abandoned farmhouse on the south side, or maybe they’d holed up in an alley somewhere. It was impossible to figure it out until we knew more about these creatures and their habits.
“We need more information about this breed of sucker.” I headed toward the exit. “We’re going to have to eavesdrop on Trinity’s meeting.”
Larkin appeared in front of me, blocking my exit. “Justice, if we do this, you cannot be seen. Do you understand?”
I nodded. “Trust me, the last thing I want is for the weavers to figure out what we’re doing and be waiting for us when we get back. We’ll get the information we need and get out. Simple.”
Kash joined us. “I know where they’ll be meeting,” he said. “Trinity’s house, but the place is guarded by hounds.”
“I can get in. I can use the shadows to take me to Payne.”
“We can’t risk the others seeing you,” Kash reminded me again.
“Besides,” Larkin said. “Your ability may not even work here. It could be twisted into something entirely different. Most weavers that are banished here lose their power completely, or it manifests in small ways.
