She beckoned me closer, and I leaned in, my ear inches from her lips. "I'm a weaver of dreams," she whispered. "A sorceress of the night. I can make you see, make you feel, make you believe anything I want."
I nodded, my heart pounding in my chest. "I want to know the truth about you, Jordan Haze."

"This is the threshold," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "Are you ready to step through, to leave the world of the mundane behind?"
