The voice is like nothing I’ve ever heard before, it’s as if someone stole a million nightmares and sewed them all together with a thread sourced from hell itself. It’s so horrendous that it causes all my feelings to skid to a halt right against Av as I carefully manoeuvre her behind me.

That action is not as easy as it should be because Av is giggling her head off while trying to yell out crazy comebacks to the huge Reaper tapping his sickle against his hand ominously. No wonder everyone is screaming and seeking to vacate the room, the rotting flesh on the mask looks so real I would be half worried if Avalon wasn’t laughing.

I have a strong feeling it’s Nathan but still, if it’s not and thinks he’s going to take her from me, I’ll be the one doing the killing tonight.

I don’t move, I can talk to Avalon freely, but I still feel my tongue glued to my mouth with most other people. I let my eyes do the talking.

The Grim Reaper whirls suddenly and storms over to step up on a chair, black billowing around his legs like shadows. He gestures for silence and for everyone to stay still. That body language must run in their family.

Av slides around to the front of me and again and pops her head out my shirt. My hands snake their way around her waist, my thumb rubbing the pleat of her bandage. My mind starts to fall into turmoil. I’m glad for the distraction when the Reaper does some curious hand movements.

Av turns her head and her hot blue gaze finds mine. I can’t talk for a moment, as my mind stumbles for a second in replaying my father’s sayings. Avalon is so goddam beautiful. “Can I have your shirt, please?” she waits expectantly.

The reaper makes a growling type noise.

I don’t want to let her move from against me, but my mind’s stirring with those dangerous feelings due to her close proximity. I shrug it off my arms and head so that it stays over her, happy that it covers her to her thighs.

“That is your brother, right?” I ask ready to whisk her away if she says no. Because there is a more than a big chance that she’s made friends with a mental patient. That would totally be plausible for Avalon.

“Yup,” she nods. “And unfortunately, he is going to test you right now. Fail and he probably will actually kill you, kill you. He thinks that he will get away with it if he says the spirit of the Grim Reaper overtook his brain and my dad will back him up saying it runs in the family when female members are in naked, comprising positions. But if you pass, all you need to do is give him your keys. Please pass, I don’t want to fight him.”

“What?” I murmur wondering where the hell she got all that from and what ‘keys’ he thinks I’m giving him.

“Just go with it,” she smiles at me before placing her soft lips on mine.
