Katelina woke in the evening, clinging to wisps of her dream. She needed to remember what Samael had said so she could tell Jorick.
As if roused by her thoughts, her boyfriend came to life with a gasp; someone who didn't need air deciding they did. He blinked, then smiled as he drank in her face. "Good morning."
"I spoke to Samael."
It took him a minute to digest her words. "What? When?" Then he understood. "What did he say?"
She poured out the dream. By the time she finished, Jorick was sitting up, a frown on his face. "There was no battle?"
"No. Unless he's lying."
"I can't imagine he would." Jorick looked thoughtful. "If there was no battle-"
"Then Lilith did it herself," Katelina finished. "Would she send me a message that big?"
"It's hard to say." He looked up as Jamie and Verchiel entered. "Come, let's feed, then we'll check on your mother."
