Chapter 324: Confrontation
Yet again, I was unsurprised to find the brothers weren't alone. Ameline strolled in after them, looking around as if she was sizing the place up for herself. And, as usual, Mia trailed along behind her like a shadow.
"Where have you been, Syd?" Kristophe struck one of his model poses and cocked his head to the side, running his tongue over his lips. "We've been looking everywhere for you."
Ah. I'd been starting to wonder why Batsheva was taking so long calling the Council back to order. Now I knew what she'd been waiting for.
"Here and there," I said, trying for nonchalant despite the ghost now clinging to my arm.
Damn. Of all the terrible timing. If they found out about the necromancy, they could use it against me before Gram and Pender had a chance to release the echoes they carried.
But the Dumonts ignored my ghostly friend as if she was insignificant. It just proved to me further, they were morons.
