Sophia Mahoney
Sophia steps into the entry of the bookstore.
Knots kink in her stomach, twisting the food she ate for breakfast in circles. Of all the rapid changes to occur - her uncle's death, discovering her Wiccan ties, and becoming a gargoyle's mate - the hole left by Hugo's premature departure from this world generates the most tension in her life because of the unanswered questions.
Why did you keep me in the dark?
Thor leaps off the corner of the couch. His ears twitch, and he wags his tail, which makes his body gyrate back and forth.
"Hey, boy?" Sophia pats his head and scratches under his chin. "Did you miss me?"
Walking through the bookstore, Thor keeps pace with her.
