12 "I can get you both out of here… alive"

Father wasn’t going to be easy to convince when it cao to Dankmar He hated the power Dankmar held over him In Vilokan, Father held the power However, Dankmar held the power over the souls of creation But I needed Pagan’s forgiveness My future had been planned out with her froo I didn’t want to watch her hate for row each day

"Excuse me but I need to find someone and I am completely lost Do you know Rosella, red hair… and hopefully still alive? I thought ht stand out here, ya know"

Stopping I turned to find an attractive petite girl aroundI noticed other than the fact she had really big brown eyes and incredibly long eyelashes was the fact she earing clothes Nored her thin hips nicely The black tee shirt she earing had "Don’t o Cajun on your ass," written across it in white block letters Nothing about this girl looked Cajun Her pale skin and coppery colored hair screamed Irish

"Hey, are you like alive too? Because you look like it but then it’s hard to tell here," she asked I lifted aze The pink in her cheeks and beat of her heart told ? Was he collecting a whole horde of huht of why he would have collected another hue!

"Who are you and how did you get here?" I asked studying her for any sign of a lie

Her posture straightened and the openly curious expression she’d been ai at me darkened Great, I’d pissed off yet another fe for my sister Rosella Monroe She’s older than ether fir her and I was positive it wasn’t my rude behavior "Hopefully, still alive"

"You’re alive," I stated

Sabine nodded slowly like maybe she needed to find someone else with a little et here? This is the Voodoo afterlife It isn’t nor the halls Typically it’s the souls of those who served Ghede who enter Vilokan"

Sabine put her hands on her hips and sighed I noticed her nails were neatly filed and each white tip had a black Fleur De Lis on the end "I’ can enter the walls of Vilokan if they knohat they’re doing Trust me, I don’t want to be here I just need someone to tell me where I can find my sister so that I can take her ho and breathing and staying the hell away from my Mame’s Voodoo crap"

"Okay, wait Your sister is here and you are looking for her Both of you are alive? You’re not a Voodoo queen heir or a witch but you are here Where only those Ghede allows to enter may walk"

A small shiver ran over her and she shook her head, "No, I’ood lesson inwith the Voodoo junk she buys from the shop on Bourbon I’ve told her thatto screw around with But no one listens to the eighteen year old So, here I am"

The red headed feo Surely that wasn’t who this girl was after But who else? The red hair was siirl with Father I’d been worried about Dankirl did not need toThe idea of hi, too innocent, too… beautiful Not toWyatt’s soul go back to Dankmar

"Listen, I have soht I can find your sister But you’re in a dangerous place Ghede, he is the--"

"Voodoo lord of the dead Yeah, I know My Mame` explained all that before she sent me to the old voodoo witch who in return sent ht Okay, well he isn’t exactly a nice understanding guy If you could give s out and let et you both out of here"

Sabine cocked one eyebrow, "Yeah, you? And hoill you do that? With your good looks because God knows you aren’t a Voodoo spirit You look as huh, which was surprising I hadn’t been hter earlier "Listen, Sabine I can proot connections Just please do as I say and wait onyou both out of here… alive"
