Chapter 121

Zenovia

I tore my eyes away from Callahan as Drusilla grabbed my hand and began dragging me.

“Where are we going?” I asked.

Drusilla grabbed the car keys from the office table and muttered, “Do you think we can perform the ritual in this office? Duh!”

She flicked my forehead, and I rubbed it as she continued to drag me down the stairs and towards the garage.

The garage door opened when she clicked a button and I saw several cars, all sleek and shiny, waiting for us.

I did not understand much about cars or luxury, so they all looked pretty high-end to me.

“He needed some time to cool off. So, he would join us directly there.”

“Where is there?” I tried again, but she simply unlocked the doors of a car and shoved me in.

“Ow,” I rubbed my elbow when it lightly hit the door.

“Sorry. It is just that I am both nervous and excited. I have been asking him for days…no…years to listen to me. He never did. I spent countless hours locked in a room, studying the visions and trying to analyze a
