Chapter 160

• “No…Leyanne would never choose a side and take such drastic action. She is all for preserving species of all kinds. She wouldn’t choose to get on side to rid the world of wolves. She’s an ally. She isn’t bound by a coven or higher power like most witches. Before walking away from that, she was part of the high council. She’s solitary, marches to her own beat, and is immortal. She’s over three thousand years old, give or take and no one knows exactly why. Rumor has it her father is some druid lord, and they’re immortal beings. Sorcerers.” Sierra strokes the imprinted insignia lovingly, her face aglow with new light, and I glance at her and then Meadow, so torn in how to feel.
• “So, we have some unkillable, all-powerful Sister, walking around with the ability to create unbreakable spells and throw her magic around? And we’re only hearing of her now? Where is she? How do we find her?” Meadow props one hand on the table to slide her fingers under her chin, her other hand waving that finger in the air with a sassy tone that hints at disbelief and lack of trust that this is the answer to our problems. Sierra ignores the underlying attitude and beams our way.
• “Scotland…. well, maybe. She travels a lot. But she’s Scottish.”
