removed from this pendant.” Josephine offered a sympathetic gaze as she handed the jewelry back.
    Charlotte held the pendant in her hand and stared at it for a long moment. Finally, her expression became horrified as she saw the truth for herself.
    “You’re right! There’s nothing here at all.” Charlotte chewed nervously on her lower lip. “How could this happen?”
    “Someone cast a mind control spell on both you and your sister so you’d think the family enchantment was still in place. It’s a powerful and complex enchantment. When Yvonne tapped into the vortex at Siesta Key beach, it triggered a complete takeover of her mind and caused her to create a dangerous enchantment. Luckily, I stopped her in time from finishing it,” Josephine said.
    “How could this happen?” Charlotte said. “I have no memory of being kidnapped or anything.”
    “You might not have been kidnapped,” Josephine explained. “Someone could have broken into your apartment and cast the mind control spell on you there.”
    “This is very disturbing.” Charlotte’s expression was horrified. “Now that I’m a six, I can’t help with the spell on Yvonne. My powers will be too volatile.”
    “Have you had any episodes?” Josephine asked.
    “Not yet.”
    “Maybe you’ll turn out to be a stable six.”
    “I can’t take the chance that I have the K Syndrome. No one can take the risk of being a six in our family.” Charlotte’s voice conveyed stark terror.
    “K Syndrome?” Josephine asked.
    “That’s just what we call it. If you become a six, your powers become stronger and more volatile and then you die,” Charlotte said.
    “I think it would be best if you stayed here overnight,” Josephine said.
    “What do you mean?” Charlotte eyed her with puzzlement.
    “Someone’s conducting an experiment on you and your sister. As of right now, you’re both in protective custody.”
    “This can’t be happening,” Charlotte groaned. “Are you sure you have enough room for another guest?”
    “I have four spare bedrooms. I think I can manage.” Josephine flashed a wry smile at her. “Would you like a peanut butter blossom cookie? I just made a fresh batch.”
    “That sounds great. Thanks.”
    Josephine went to the kitchen where Perry was still perched on the curtain rod. He cocked his head at her as she set two cookies on a small decorative turquoise plate with black trim.
    “What are you doing in here all by yourself?” Josephine peered at the dove with fondness.
    Perry tended to shy away from strangers. He flew across the room and landed on her shoulder.
    “You’re such a good bird,” Josephine crooned.
    “I’m not a bird,” Perry warbled in his strange bird voice.
    He didn’t speak much when he was in this form. Josephine suspected that speech was difficult for the vocal chords of a white dove. She took the plate of cookies and returned to the living room.
    Charlotte accepted the treats with a delighted smile. “Thanks.”
    “You’re welcome.”
    “Why do you have a dove on your shoulder?” Charlotte eyed the bird with astonishment.
    “That’s just Perry White,” Yvonne advised.
    Charlotte turned to peer at her sister. “Excuse me?”
    Yvonne explained about Perry and how he was a light being.
    “I see.” Charlotte nodded slowly. Light beings were so rare that many people hadn’t heard of them.
    “Perry, why don’t you introduce yourself?” Josephine suggested.
    The white dove cocked his head to the side as he took in Yvonne and Charlotte for several seconds. He spread both his wings then jumped off Josephine’s shoulder. He exploded in a sparkling white energy mist for several seconds before coalescing into his human form. He now stood half a dozen feet away from Josephine near the center of the room. He was extremely muscular, seven-feet tall, and had brown curly hair and friendly brown eyes. He wore loose-fitting white pants and a shirt with white sneakers and a friendship bracelet made up
