"It looks like an iris--but it's spray-painted black."
Jade and Rowan exchanged grim glances. "Well--this has something to do with the Night World," Rowan said. "If we weren't sure of that before, we are now. Black flowers are the symbols of the Night World."
Mary-Lynnette put the sodden iris down. "Symbols like...?"
"We wear them to identify ourselves to each other. You know, on rings or pins or clothes or things like that. Each species has its own kind of flower, and then there are other flowers that mean you belong to a certain club or family. Witches use black dahlias, werewolves use black foxglove; made vampires use black roses..."
"And there's a chain of clubs called the Black Iris," Kestrel said, coming to stand by the others.
