Chapter 435
Katelina rubbed her head. Jorick. Jorick was coming here.
"Of course he is," Verchiel said to her thoughts. "He's not going to let someone kidnap you and stay home with his feet up."
She started to comment on the intrusion, then remembered that Verchiel was a mind reader like Samael, only not as powerful. She was surrounded by them and sometimes she wished she was one.
"If you let him turn you, you will be," Verchiel whispered. "You can't go through with it."
"I don't think I can tell him no." She felt suddenly hopeful. "You said Jorick was coming?" He was strong enough to stand up to the ancient vampire.
"I don't know how far behind Jorick is. He can't have left for at least a day after me, and he'll be slower. His reflexes aren't as good as mine. He can't drive as fast. And if he has an army they won't be able to travel in the daylight like I did. It could be several days before he gets here."
"Jorick will have Sorino. He's a tracker and he'll find us faster than you did."
