She really needed to go back to karate lessons.
Squirming against the ropes binding her wrists and ankles together, Jilly kept her gaze on Derek.
He paced back and forth in front of her, muttering under his breath. Oh boy, sheâd never seen him so riled up.
The fact sheâd quite possibly broken his nose in her wild attempt to stop him from blowing that weird dust shit at her again probably hadnât helped. It was, however, a salve of sorts to the fact said attempt to stop him had failed. Spectacularly.
Karate lessons were definitely in her future after this.
Of course, that was assuming she had a future after this.
The bleak suspicion her short and far-from-illustrious life was drawing close to its end tormented her. She ground her teeth, drawing in a long, slow breath.
Seriously, just what the hell was going on?
The peculiar chanting that insisted on filling her head had fallen silent. And she also felt strangely calm, despite her irritation with the situation.
She should be terrified. She should be a blubbering mess, begging Derek to not hurt her, pleading with him to let her go. Promising she would do whatever he wanted if he would only untie her.
Instead, she sat on the hard wooden chair heâd placed her on, pondering the tension in the rope around her ankles and wrist, and vexed by the fact she sometimes heard chanting in her head, that she still had no freaking clue who Ari was, nor why every fiber in her body told her that he was the reason for her existence.
If Derek was correct about her pagan ancestors, it must have something to do with that. Surely?
Maybe her contact with Ari had awakened some kind of past-life memory in her?
Or maybe she was just going insane.
Her stomach knotted, and she strained against the ropes again.
Throughout her surreal imprisonment with Derek, she could have sworn she kept feeling Ari in her head, the man who should be a stranger to her but for some reason wasnât.
More than once, she felt rage not belonging to her. Sheâd heard his voice snarl something that sounded like Latin. Extraho Vene-something or other.
Then, while in the middle of smashing her fist as hard as she could against Derekâs noseâa nose sheâd covered in ice cream one afternoon when they were hanging out, just to make him laughâthe sound of screeching tires and crunching metal tore through her head a fraction of a second before her shoulder erupted in pain.
There had been no reason for the sudden agony in her bones, but it had incapacitated her. Sheâd fallen to the ground, crying out.
Derek had taken advantage of the moment and overpowered her.
If this thing she shared with Arriman Drake was responsible for that little moment of pain and weakening disorientation, she was going to kick his arse if she saw him again.
After she kissed him stupid.
Regardless of it all, she still hungered for him like he was her only source of life.
Although, to be honest, that craving seemed to be fading right along with her fear.
