He told it all, hoping to remind her of home. To reconnect. And then he sat still, letting her process.

“I have something I have to tell you,” she said softly, refusing to look Johnis in the eye.

“Then tell me.”

“I can’t. Not yet. It’s too terrible.”

“Will it affect our mission?”

Darsal sighed. “Is there nothing but the mission for you?”

“Yes! There’s Silvie. There’s getting back to Middle! There’s life, because if we fail, I have a feeling there won’t be any.”

“Fair enough.” She paused. “When I arrived in Las Vegas, I was as lost as you. Karas was a young child then, and I had no way of contacting her. By the time I learned that the entertainment mogul was actually our Karas, I had already made the connection with Paradise and tracked the books back to Turkey and then from Turkey to Romania, where I learned that Alucard had been sowing his disease. I got too close to him and exposed myself. It was then that I decided that he and Miranda, that witch he’d taken up with, had to think I was dead.”

“Sounds dangerous.”

“Dangerous? Is there anything about this mission that hasn’t been dangerous? I managed to pull it off—amazing what a pile of money and the right medical clinic can do for you these days.”

“So what do you know about Alucard?”

“I know he plans on opening a gateway for the Shataiki. I’ve been in the chamber where he keeps his worms.”

“The library,” Johnis said.

“You’ve been in his dungeon?”

He told her.

“Then you know where we’re going. The gateway chamber is deeper than the library you were in. That’s where he’ll do his deed. And that, my friend, is where we’re going.”

She stopped then, as if she’d come to the end of it.

“That’s what you needed to tell me?” Johnis asked.

Darsal set her jaw. “This is all a bit much. We’ll have time later.” She reclined her seat and closed her eyes. “Get some sleep. We’re going to need it.”

THE NIGHT WAS STILL BLACK WHEN THEY PULLED THE CAR off the road and ran through the woods, around Alucard’s mansion an hour north of Bucharest, Romania. They could see two cars parked at the front, a good indication that Miranda had brought them here, as suspected.

They both ran with silver guns firmly fixed to their hips and two long knives on each thigh. Dressed in black from head to foot, Darsal carried a few supplies in a pack at her belly, but other than that, they were going in lean.
