“Fine. You?”
“Good enough. This place is making me dizzy, though.” Katie rubbed her forehead. She needed sleep and real food. Her hand went instinctively to her stomach, and she couldn’t help wondering if the food and water cubes were good for the baby. “We need to find Rhyn. I think this place is doing bad things to me.”
“Because you’re not dead!” Toby called over his shoulder. “Mortals can’t come here unless they’re dead. Or, it’ll kill you.”
“Let me guess. That happens tonight, if I don’t get to wherever it is Gabe was taking me.”
Toby was wrestling with a bush and didn’t respond. Katie breathed deeply and pushed forward, wanting very much to stop and sleep but suspecting she’d never awaken if she did. She didn’t have enough food cubes to drive off more than one more demon attack. They’d have to find Rhyn and Gabe fast.
Rhyn had come for her. The thought thrilled her. She didn’t doubt he would try, and she hoped he hadn’t done something like violate the obscure Immortal Codes he tried to follow just to get to her.
