Some secrets should stay buried.
After accidentally freeing a demon, ticking off the werewolf alpha, and possibly inciting a war, Darby Adler’s Warden job is in serious peril.
With the council up in arms and a literal god on her doorstep, Darby needs to figure her life out and pronto.
If she can’t, losing her job might be the least of her problems.
Are you carrying any weapons, ma’am? the rather burly security guard asked, crossing his beefy arms over his chest as if he was prepared for me to lie.
I raised a perfectly shaped eyebrow at the guard—courtesy of Sarina—and gave The Rock Part Deux a conspiratorial smile as I twirled a finger. Would you walk into a place like this unarmed, sir?
Rock Two blinked at me before surveying the crowd of high-powered arcaners and letting out a little huff. No, ma’am, I can’t say I would. Though, I’m still going to have to ask that you disarm yourself and submit to a pat down.
Sarina warned me this might happen, so I wasn’t exactly surprised, but I wasn’t happy about it either. Given the giant TSA-style metal detectors stationed at every entrance, there was no way I was getting through them without alarms going off.
Still… Any chance of a freebie pass for being the Warden—Rock’s glare was glacial. I was specifically told that everyone was to be searched regardless of status and no weapons of any kind could enter.
And saying the beeping was due to a zipper—Would be the tenth such excuse I’ve heard tonight. The guard sighed like this was the worst job in the world, and he’d really enjoy being anywhere else.
Fair enough, I muttered, gathering my courage. I was going to be unarmed. Walking into the unknown. Surrounded by arcaners. In a dress. Perfect.
