The Van Helsing Impetus – Excerpt No. 420

“You’ve been listening in?”

“More like you’ve summoned me without being consciously aware of it.”

“I really need to learn to rein in my powers,” Clara whined.

“Unless you were looking to have an audience.”

If not for that smile creeping over Eleanor’s lips, Clara would have missed the attempt at humour. While Eleanor made light of the situation, the
implications that the angel had been summoned while Clara was in flagrante was more concerning. That’s reason enough to blush.

“Well, I apologise for that,” Clara said. “I’d be careful about repeating this in front of Evelyn, she might get ideas.”

“I doubt she needs any,” Eleanor replied as though teasing.

“True,” Clara said.
