Another warning.
Another sleepless night.
Eddie, Amber, and Kyle across town.
Con in the apartment, alone.
Two hours ago, a girl was in his room.
Now it is just him.
It has been six months since the last warning.
Six months since Eddie and Amber started turning their fake marriage into a real one.
Six months of girls whose names he can't remember.
Lilac Valley is not the only town being attacked.
It's most of the northeast at this point.
What did the humans want?
He knows what they want.
They want all magical creatures dead.
They want magical towns destroyed.
Why the warnings, though?
Why not finish the job?
It was like this in high school.
But there was no warning the day his mother was killed.
It just happened.
