Fethan was not the teacher Jeren would have wished. There was none of the respect and sharing she had enjoyed with Indarin. Though a tough teacher, Indarin had always been fair. Fethan was petty, resentful and callous. When she failed he mocked her, when she succeeded it wasnt enough. She hated him more with each sunset. Our side? I ask, wondering what she means. His ties to her were stronger. Had to be stronger. The softness of his voice told me hed seen more than I wanted him to. It wasnt often I let someone close enough to feel the pain that was slowly drawing me into the darkness. Gabriel was different. He had pain inside him that flowed outward, mixing with mine and drawing me closer. He brought me roses the day he shot Max. I touched one of the petals. “Soft, like the skin of a newborn baby. Strange how something so beautiful could cause so much pain. I turned and raised my eyes to his. “Dont you think?” My body moved of its own volition and stepped closer to him. “Do you want to kiss me, Gabriel?” Thats Catherine Marlish, yes? He grinned at the thought.Wed have to be quick though. New refugees came in early this morning and they— Karen was silent for a moment.Gabriel, was there any record of her having given birth while in captivity? [ i_001.jpg] I faced the speaker.In this case, Salyer is innocent. The killer should be ashamed of himself for trying to make someone else look guilty for his crimes. Gabriel sighed.I read the physical injury file. I know what Salyer did to her. To save my partner. I didnt stop to explain as I ran through my fire training in my mind.The door is closed, so I should be safe in breaking the window as long as I get in and out fast. Salyer had made a mistake. We had made most of Maxs rooms fireproof. Only the wood around the door and the ceiling would burn, but that would be enough to kill Max from smoke inhalation. I exited the house, having stopped only long enough to grab a fire extinguisher and turn the bottom lock so the door would lock behind me. Gabriel grumbled something under his breath, rose, and began to pace.If she survives that, how long before he kills her? Shan could feel their laughter crawling across his skin on a thousand spiders legs. Rowan lays his head back. Listens as Chris outlines a life so full of grief that Rowan wants to reach inside him and take it all away. Her stops listening. Types Derricks name into Google. Sits back, glass in hand, and begins to read. They move quietly through the forest, Violet several steps ahead, picking out a path that feels markedly different from the one they took when they visited with school. It feels as if Violet is leading them into the pages of some dark fairy-tale. The further they go from the lake, the denser and darker the wood becomes. The mountains to the east shuts out the sunlight so the ground never seems to dry out properly. Each step feels wetter than the last. The forest seems older here, too. Thicker. The trees have fatter trunks and their branches fork off at odd angles, like limbs that have been broken and improperly set. The air feels somehow heavier. When Catherine licks her lips she tastes raw meat. She raises an arm and pushes on through the twist of trees. In places, the ground is uneven. Old stones push through the earth like skulls. There was a building here, once. Jeren reached out her hands and embraced him. He was warm, comforting and the scent of him was a blessed balm to her nerves. Brightlings Dale was as much a smudge on the landscape as Jeren remembered. The moment it came into view, Shans mood—poor already—darkened. Anala had died here, the brave wolf trying to save them both. Jeren thought of her pelt, stored now in the luggage her retinue pulled behind them. She wasnton horseback, for no lady of the Holtlands rode astride a beast and now she was back in the Holtlands, back to being the lady once more, even that small freedom was no longer allowed. She sat in an open wagon that they could pretend was a carriage. Shan sat less easy beside her. She reached out for him as often as she could, touching him for reassurance, to show her love, but she wasn’t sure it helped. He was like a caged animal, her wolf. Tense, angry, waiting. No. Do you want to be as bad as them?.
