Poison in the Blood
“After all, there was no point in riling Simon if I was killed by Infernus assassins during the trial. The idea that evil faeries might punch through the wards and pop into Josephine’s home at any moment and slay me kept me in a constant state of fear.
We reinforced the wards around the building to keep all faeries out, but I wasn’t confident in their strength. Librarians aren’t adept at creating wards. A sorcerer or a summoner’s aid would have been preferable, but of course we weren’t in close ...contact with any. I wondered if Justine’s guardian magic would make her an expert at casting wards, and I resolved to ask her at the next opportunity. I had not spoken with her since our meeting with Horatio, and I hoped that things were going well between her and Dr. Bennett.
Finally a note arrived from Justine requesting that I join her at her home, from which we would be traveling to Faerie for the trial. I was pleased that we were given notice, and that I was not transported away at an inopportune moment.MoreLess
