Chapter 17

I’d have to apologize to Lilliana later, she was very stiff up front with Sharon sharing the front seat. As for the three of us in the back, Malina was draped over me again, although now it was to be a bodily shield against a first strike, though she looked perfectly relaxed.

The shifters were allies of sorts, but I had forgotten the treaty wasn’t active yet, so if he decided I’d look better if I was a head shorter, he wouldn’t be violating it yet.

I was fairly sure he wouldn’t try to kill me, but measured against an eternity in hell with the pact being violated, it did have me a little nervous. I was risking more than just my life. Still, I was pretty sure, mostly. After all, he did want peace with the vampires, and I was the only way to solidify that for him.

Miracle of miracles, I was able to cast my locating spell, and not lose my personal shield or detect magic once during the drive. Apparently fear and necessity helped keep the mind sharp. I was even able to add a fourth effect for short times, and recharge through Malina, but even in my current situation I couldn’t hold it for long. Happily, I didn’t need to.

Sharon asked, “So where are we going?”

“He’s in one of the downtown hotels, not sure which one yet.”

Darren asked, “It’s a male?”

I shrugged and smiled, “The demon is, what he’s possessing is still up in the air.”

We drove around downtown for a bit, past all the hotels until I figured out the right one.

“Marriott, he’s on the first floor somewhere.”

Lilliana found us a place to park, and we got out and crossed the street. When we got inside the hotel, I froze.

“Fuck me,” I whispered, nothing is ever easy.

Lilliana and Malina said in eerie concert, “Later, what’s wrong,” and then smiled at each other.

I shook my head, “My vampire meter just went off the scale, the rogue is not alone. There’s about sixty vampires a hundred feet that way,” and I pointed off down the hall.

Darren growled, “That means the rogue is a part of Dion’s coven. He won’t be happy with that, and neither am I.”

I frowned as I thought it through, “Maybe whoever it is, has held back their darker impulses, until they believed there would be no more Moore warlocks and thought they could get away with it?”

Sharon agreed in a silky voice, “Probably, but what now? I doubt they’ll appreciate us crashing a vampire ball.”

Darren growled, but nodded after a few moments, “I’m afraid we can’t accompany you. We’ll wait here for you to bring word.”

The most powerful shifter couple in the city walked over to the bar and disappeared inside.

Oh good, I get to invade a vampire ball without the help of two shifters, what a relief! Not.

“Lil, Lina, Opinions?” I asked.

Lilliana sighed, “Now he asks. I’d have said wait until he’s alone, but I don’t think there is enough time for that. The ball will go on for some time, many hours, and your twenty-four will be up before then.
