In the stifling heat, Angelique Montief flicked her wrist and set the bamboo ceiling
fan spinning. Kneeling on a woven mat with sweat coating her body, she lifted a
small wooden brass-bound casket from the bottom of a large trunk, inserted a gold
key, and opened the lid. Inside two objects lay wrapped in thick cloth. She
carefully unwrapped the smaller bundle to reveal a pentagonal mirror, a gift
handed down to her by her grandmother, its ancient oak frame carved with tiny
pentacles. She glanced over her shoulder at her locked bedroom door, then
stared into the mirror and whispered, “Show him to me.”
When the glass remained blank, fear clutched at her chest. Again, she said the
words, and the image of a plantation house engulfed in flames appeared. “No,
please, he can’t be dead.” Tears blurred her vision. The fiery image changed to
reveal a human form lying beneath flowering bougainvillea.
Hope rising, Angelique peered closer.
“Show me his face.”
She saw his indigo blue eyes blink open.
“I’m coming, my love.”
He couldn’t hear her, but she hoped in his heart that he knew she would find a
way to get to him.
As the smoke in the room thickened, she knew her time was running out. She
rewrapped the mirror and placed it into the smaller casket among cloth bags of
herbs and potion-filled vials. Relocking the lid, she hung the key on a chain around
her neck, dropped a jeweled dagger into her pocket, and tucked the casket under
her arm.
Crouched beneath the smoke, she considered the quickest way to reach her son
and escape.
Augustus had locked her in, placing what he thought would be an impenetrable
shield across both doors. Angelique coughed, choked by the smoke. Her
husband’s biggest mistake was underestimating her power.
