Excerpt
I pulled up the
audio version of the newest Iron Druid
book, turned my phone on speaker, and when the tub was full, I sank into the
hot water with a sigh. Luke Daniels could read a shampoo bottle and I’d listen,
but my mind kept drifting off of Atticus’ and Oberon’s adventures, and was
instead hopping from rock to rock in the garden of ADDATA, the Quimbys, and
Gabriel. I wasn’t even annoyed when the phone rang and interrupted the story,
because I knew I’d have to go back to the beginning of the chapter anyway.
It was on its
fourth ring when I finally dried off my hand and reached to answer it, so I hit
the speaker button just as I looked at the screen.
Gabriel’s name
startled me so much I didn’t say anything – I just sat up in the tub and stared
at the phone.
“Please say you’re not in the bath.”
Gabriel’s voice was quiet, deep, and had a note of pleading in it.
“What do you
want, Gabriel?” I moved again, and the water sloshed around me. I knew he could
hear it because he groaned softly.
“Where to begin.”
It was almost a whisper, and the words sent a shiver through me. He cleared his
throat and continued in his normal, beautiful voice. “We had a call from
Quimby. He said he’d found you and wondered what we were going to do about it.”
I didn’t say anything, and the silence lasted two long heartbeats. “Are you
okay?” he finally asked, quietly.
“He saw me turn
from Bryn Mawr onto Sheridan. I lost him in the alleys.”
Gabriel exhaled.
“Good.”
“Aren’t you
supposed to be finding his money? Or his wife? Or something else he misplaced?”
“Do you have his
money or his wife?” he asked
“No.”
“Okay.”
“Okay? What
exactly do you want from me, Gabriel?” I sat forward and the water sloshed
again. I traced the ripples with my fingers as I heard his sigh.
“I don’t know. I
just know that every time you move, I hear the water in your bath, and I
imagine …” He exhaled sharply. “Be careful, darling. I don’t trust Quimby not
to try to hurt you if he can. Don’t let him catch you.”
“You haven’t caught me yet, and you’re far
more resourceful than that little man.”
He chuckled
softly. “Yet.” He hung up the phone
without saying goodbye, and Luke Daniels’ voice returned, continuing the story
as I sank down in the water and let its heat lap over the chills on my skin.
