Chapter 44: An Evening with Evangeline
Jamie’s POV
Jessie sprang to his feet, turning around instinctually. He put on the light. The figures had vanished.
“What happened?” He demanded sharply.
I was panting, my chest heaving. I had seen them! I had recognised the pale, dark-haired, taloned Brynn holding hands with a tall shadowy creature with glowing red eyes. That must have been Xavinat. I had just gotten rid of them in the competition. Evangeline had summoned the demoness Brynn to do her bidding and now Evangeline was in a psychiatric hospital. What more did Brynn want with me specifically? There were many others to harass.
“I saw Brynn…and I think…Xavinat standing there,” I said, my voice cracking, as I pointed to the spot where I had seen them.
It had not been more than a flash.
