Chapter 128

Zenovia

We had the dinner and post that Callahan left the table when Matteo asked for his time to discuss something.

I took that opportunity and grabbed Drusilla’s arm, dragging her away.

“Tell me what you saw.”

I demanded, and she furrowed her eyebrows. “Girl, calm down.”

I shook my head, “You were being very snarky to Cynthia. You never did that. And I know you don’t act like this unless something is troubling you.”

I said, rubbing the part over my wrist where the anchor bond was located.

“It’s nothing, Zee. I was just trying to make him see what a lousy person she is.”

I gave her a meaningful look. “I have a feeling you saw something in your visions. Something about him and me. So tell me what it is.”

I urged.

Drusilla let out a breath, “It is nothing. I told you sometimes those are meaningless. The visions are of the many possibilities that could occur.”

“I know that. But you don’t necessarily act on them. So tell me what is it that you saw.”

Drusilla hesitated. “Please don’t tell Callahan.”

“I knew it. There was something about him.”

Drusilla looked around to see if there was somebody hearing us and then pulled me to a corner.

“I am not sure what to make of it. While I was completing the ritual, I saw flashes of something.”

“Of what?”

She tensed. “I am not sure what to make of it. But you remember the statues behind us…when we were doing the ritual?”

I nodded. She had mentioned they belonged to the Norns, a trio of ancient deities known to be harbingers of fate.

When I was performing the ritual, I sensed as if the statues…they were trying to communicate with me.

My eyebrows furrowed as I felt an uneasy sensation prickle my spine.
