but werewolves, in addition to being exceptionally strong and exceptionally fast, were exceptionally easy
on the eyes. Antonia had enormous dark eyes and creamy skin, long legs and the figure of a swimsuit
model, but it didn't set her apart.

Nobody had a clue what Antonia was until she woke up the morning of her seventeenth birthday, made
herself toast and poached eggs, then fell over in a dead faint. When she regained consciousness, she
brushed the egg out of her hair and told her astonished parents, "Michael's going to get someone
pregnant today, will be married by summertime and a father before Easter. Oh," she added thoughtfully,
"the baby will be a girl, and the epidural won't work for the mom-to-be. Hee!"

To everyone's amazement, she had been right. It was the first of dozens of predictions, some mild
("Moira's going to get stuck with another audit. . . ha!"), some major ("Stay the hell out of New York on
September 11, 2001."). She was never wrong. She was never even off a little bit. No one had seen
anything like it. No one was even sure what it meantтАФcould werewolves harness mental power as well
as physical? It was a mystery to all.

And overnight, Antonia had gone from Pack Nobody to Pack Demigod. Piss her off, and nothing might
happen ... or she might foresee your death and fail to warn you, out of spite.

Now here she was, holding court in the solarium, explaining that the world was going to end unless Derik
made it to6 Fairy Lane, Monterey, California, as soon as possible.

"You guys know who Morgan Le Fay is?"

Moira nodded. Derik blinked. "Guess I'll play dumb blonde," he said, avoiding Moira's poke. "No idea."

"She was the half sister of King Arthur," Antonia explained. "She had an incestuous affair with her
brother and was responsible, indirectly, for his death. She was also a powerful sorceress."

"Uh-huh. That's fascinating, hon. I like story time as much as the next fella, but this is relevant because ...
?"

"I got a line on her."

"A line on her," Moira repeated. "Toni, what in God's name are you talking about?"

"An-TON-ee-uh. And Morgan Le Fay is in Monterey Bay."

"You're a poet, and you don't know it," Derik joked, and was unsurprised to see both women ignore
him.

"She's reincarnated and goes by the name of Dr. Sara Gunn. You have to get over there and take care
of her. If you don't, a week from now none of us will be here."

Dead silence, broken by Moira's faint, "Oh, Antonia ... for real?"

"No, I made it all up because I want the attention," she snapped. "Yes! The world's gonna end, and
we're all fucked, unless the Pack's answer to The Rock gets his ass in gear."

Another brief silence, and then Moira said, "I thinkтАФI think I'd better go get Michael and Jean-nie."
