Autumn faced Alastair. “Bring your new bestie, and let’s go.”

Other than a lifted brow for her commanding tone, he didn’t react.

“Sorry,” she muttered. “This is taking too long.”

“Agreed. Lead the way.”

The kindness in his eyes eased her fear that she’d offended him, and she spared a second to hug him, offering her thanks. His answer was a kiss on her temple.

When their small group arrived at the clearing, two things struck Autumn at once. The first was that there was no movement. No wind, no forest sounds, and no smell associated with the trees. The second was the presence of a stronger magical creature than any of their group.

“Something’s here,” Preston said, lifting his arms and conjuring fireballs. With the flames dancing in both palms, he turned in a slow circle as he studied the tree line. “There’s an ‘off’ feel to the place. Anyone else sense it?”

“Yes. I believe we all do, brother,” Alastair replied. Removing his suit jacket, he placed it on the altar, then followed with the removal of his tie.

“You know it’s serious when Alastair Thorne removes his tie,” Knox said lightly. But he, too, was on high alert, and although he held his arms low, he quickly drew molecules from the air to compress them into the electrical weapon he was creating to protect their group.

“Stand ready, fellas,” LJ said. “This is what I felt before getting shoved through the portal.”

“Are you saying one is about to⁠—”

The entire clearing turned dark, and it was as if someone had shut off the lights in a small closet with no windows. Pitch black, and Autumn could see nothing. Hear no one. She reached for Keaton’s hand and came up empty.

“Babe?”

Her call was lost in the void, as if the sound never left her throat.

Panic clawed at her insides, and her heart throbbed loudly in her ears, making her deaf to anything but the pounding.

“Keaton?” she shouted. “Dad? Anyone?”

Again, nothing.
