Chapter 17: The Pull
He turned me over, gently, and took my wrist.
He didn't look at the gold line.
He looked just past my face, a little above my head.
He was quiet for too long.
"Tell me," I said.
"She's pulling."
"From the tower?"
"From anywhere. Your name is on the shelf. The chain runs from the paper to you." His thumb rested on the gold. "She does it to the sleepers at the Isles every night. She's started on you early."
"Because I'm in your bed."
"Because you got into her vault." His jaw set. "And because she wants me to watch."
I sat up.
The room tipped.
I put a hand flat on the mattress and waited for it to stop.
"How much did she take?"
"A little more than a year."
"In one night."
"In one sleep."
I looked at the gold at the corners of my mouth in the black window.
I wiped it with my thumb.
It came off like ash.
"So I don't sleep," I said.
By noon I'd fallen asleep twice.
Once standing at the kitchen counter in Sunnyside, with a spoon in my coffee.
