Chapter 39: Goblins Arrive

Up in Donal’s study, Sean straightened. He heard Colleen’s scream. It went through to his soul. The fairy he was supposed to protect was in trouble.

The flapping of wings sent his gaze out the window looking into the darkness. “He’s got her.”

Donal frowned. “Why was she outside and how did that goblin get past my defenses?”

Sean was already out the window and onto the ledge. He lifted his head and scented Colleen. She wasn’t screaming so she must have passed out. He could only imagine what it would be like to be snatched from the ground and flown away. His wings unfurled and he took flight in the direction of her scent.

He couldn’t hide himself so he’d just have to live with whatever consequences there were for him to be flying over the suburbs. At least it was dark out. The goblin headed for the river. Where was he taking her?

“If you need help, let me know,” Donal said in Sean’s head.
