Untamed Fate (Magic Side: Wolf Bound 2) - Page 197

“Cool. Great. Let’s play a different game. Do you know where the hell I

am?” he wheezed.

I sighed and rubbed my temples. “In my room, rummaging through my

shit like a drugged-out badger, by the sound of it.”

“Close. I’m on a ladder trying to get to your open window to check if

you’re dead or not. Unfortunately, it’s a little short and pretty unstable.”

I leapt off my stool. “Are you nuts?”

“You weren’t answering your phone, and your door is locked. When I

saw the open window, I was worried you’d been abducted or something!”

“I’m fine!” I snapped. “I’m in Dockside with Jaxson and Sam, and we—"

Casey made a strangled sound. “Oh, my gods, Savannah, you didn’t have

him over last night, did you? I thought I heard a man snoring this morning. It

was like a lumberjack choking to death on a muffin. Tell me you two weren’t

—”

“No! Seriously? I got up early and left. I locked my door without thinking

and then couldn’t get my cell.” I thanked God that we were talking on the

phone and that Casey never seemed able to pick up my lies.

“Okay. Good. Because Mom would kill you. What are you doing in

Dockside, anyway?”

I ran my hand through my hair in exasperation. “Shit is going down up

here, and we need your help. That circle of protection that Aunt Laurel made

around my bed, do you know how to make one of those?”

“Yes. But I’m not making one for your wolfy love den, if that’s what

you’re thinking.”

“No! Damn it, get your head out of the gutter.” My fingernails were

beginning to itch. I tried to steady my voice. “Last night, the sorcerer put

twenty-one wolves to sleep, and we don’t know how to break the spell. He’s

going to keep doing it. We need a way to protect these people while we bring

him down. Could you make a giant circle of protection in like, I don’t know,

a gymnasium? Somewhere a lot of people could gather.”
