“Okay. I’m okay. What is it?”
“It’s where I went this morning... Lukas got a message from our swallow network. A science museum in Germine, about a thousand miles from here, was robbed last night. The thieves took only one thing...”
“Meteors,” she finishes for him. He doesn’t have to confirm it. She knows that she’s right. “More Black Stone.”
Her mind flashes over the events of the last few weeks… her Guardian-bond, Passar’s betrayal, the increase in Darkened numbers, the stolen piece of the Trinity Amulet, the Blood Prophecies, the stolen Black Stone, Michael’s secret army.
Alyx feels a chill rise up the tiers of her spine as she starts to sense how big this is, this wheel that has started turning.
“What’s going on, Jordan? What’s happening?”
“I don’t know,” he says. “But whatever it is, it’s only just beginning.”
Dark Angel 2
Angelstone
After escaping from the Hollows and the Michaelea lightwarriors, Jordan takes Alyx and Israel to Aradale, a secret Rogue community, where they appear to be safe, for now. But did they bring the enemy with them? ‘Mini’, the strange and speechless young girl they rescued from the Hollows, is not as she seems. Why was Elder Michael keeping her locked up? What is she hiding?
Alyx and Israel are driven further apart as Israel continues to obsess over making Adere human and Alyx hides two secrets from him: that he may be part-demon and that she may be carrying his child, a tri-blood keye that can be used to unlock hell.
Out in the mortal cities, pieces of Black Stone, the only material that can disrupt the angels’ healing abilities, continue to be stolen to make weapons for Samyara’s dark army. Alyx and her friends need to stop them but this means infiltrating holy and guarded places to steal the Black Stone in a race against the Darkened.
