“And no, I haven’t found the spell yet, but I’m still looking. Where are you?”

“It doesn’t matter. I haven’t found Ethan Stone.”

“Caleb’s called a few times. He wanted to know where you were. I told him I had no idea, but he left a number. I sent it to your phone.”

“He did?” Regan tried for nonchalance, but a frisson of excitement shivered through her at the thought. “I wanted to talk to Caleb anyway,” she said. “I’m pretty sure he must know where Ethan is.”

“Well, now you can.”

Regan frowned. Catrin sounded pissed off with her. Which was odd. Catrin never got pissed off with anyone. “Are you okay?” she asked.

“Of course I’m okay. Why shouldn’t I be? My oldest sister just vanished off the face of the earth. My younger—” She stopped in mid flow.

“Is there something wrong with Gina?” If that vampire had done something to her baby sister, she would really kill him this time—stake him through the heart.

“No, nothing, but honestly, Regan, the two of them never get out of bed.”

“Oh.” Then something occurred to her. “Are you jealous?”

Catrin was silent for a moment. “Maybe.”

Regan needed to get home. She needed to get her life sorted out and get back before Catrin decided to head out and look for a vampire of her own.

“How’s Lola?”

“Fine. She misses you.”

She sighed. “I’ll be back soon.” She hoped. “Don’t do anything drastic. And find me that spell.”

Ending the call, Regan stared down at her cell phone. She had Caleb’s number, but she didn’t want to talk to him—she wanted to see him, touch him. Reassure herself that he was okay.

She was going hunting for a wolf.
