"Did you get summoned as well?" Elena asked, keeping her voice low while leaning against the side of the refrigerator.
With her mother occupied in the dining hall talking to her younger sister, this was her best window to reach Veronica.
They had not known each other all that long, but they had fallen into an easy rhythm that let them talk on the phone without any awkwardness.
{Yeah... though calling it a summons feels a little dramatic.}
Elena groaned quietly. "Well, he reached out using a mental transmission, so..."
She had just heard Kyle telling her where she needed to be by evening. Because their bond wasn't strong enough for her to send a mental reply back, she couldn't ask what was actually going on.
{What location were you given?}
"Appears to be the Lockhart residence in Montclair," Elena told her.
{Right. I got a call from him this morning too, and he mentioned there is something he wants to discuss with the people he trusts.}
