“I can’t see! They took her! Benedict, they took her! She said she didn’t want to go, but they told her they’d been sent to escort her home!” Her nails clawed into my skin beneath the fabric. She blinked rapidly and the size of her pupils decreased slightly. “She said no, and when I stepped in front of her, the one on the right hit me!”
“I can see that,” I whispered, fighting like hell to keep my temper under control. “Give me a name and I’ll kill them.” My pulse skyrocketed. “Was it the Sons? Were they human?” Was this a hit on the witches? My instincts told me no. They would have taken Jocelyn.

You’re fine now.
“She’s gone!” Hawke roared through the phone. “And so are the motherfucking twins!”
Saint and Samuel had gone rogue. This wasn’t just nightmare bad, it was apocalypse-level bad.
“No,” I whispered, my grip tightening slightly on her elbows. “Please tell me you weren’t with—"
“Avianna.” Jocelyn went limp, her eyes coming back into focus as her gaze collided with mine. “They took Avianna.”
