Kellie could feel her breath coming out in short pants. She also realized the moment she’d fucked up. She wouldn’t apologize, not when she was sticking up for herself. Later, when she was alone with Alcott, she would make certain he knew she didn’t think that he had fewer rights because of who or what he was. That hadn’t been her intention. She was just so damn tired of things being utterly out of her control for the past week.

Not to mention it’s only been just over a fucking week!

The tension felt as if it doubled after her comment, and the following silence was serving only to make her uncomfortable. She resisted the urge to shift side to side in her discomfort. If she was going to talk big, she needed her actions to match.

Kellie wasn’t certain what she had expected to occur after her borderline temper tantrum. She knew very little of the man that was supposedly her leader, including what she could call him. Alcott hadn’t moved from behind her, and it didn’t sound as if he was going to come to her defense — not after her accidental insult.

So she continued to stare into a pair of violently glowing silver eyes until the man spoke.

“Very well then. If you wish to be in control of your own life, how about I give you a choice?”

Kellie didn’t like the condescending nature of his voice, and she wondered if she hadn’t made a terrible mistake. Crossing her arms over her chest she narrowed her eyes. “I think that would be perfect.”

“So, I can offer you two choices. The first is that you decide what I have in mind is the best course. You and Alcott will take a small vacation to Seattle. You’ll have the opportunity you shouldn’t have and be able to interact with another Word Speaker. One who happens to be the most powerful of you all, and who has some of Alcott’s powers due to a slight switch in my line up.”

He took a step closer to her, lips peeling back to reveal a set of fangs. “Or you can choose to remain in New Orleans where my brother knows where you are at. Where there are currently no others that can protect you. You can continue your life while I track my brother down and see that this is not truly the start of the war. Clearly, that means I will not be able to help you two again. By all means, the choice is yours.”

Kellie didn’t like the way the choices leveled out. She didn’t want to be carted off somewhere, even if she was intrigued that Dale and Alcott were somehow connected. But she didn’t want to risk losing Alcott, or dying herself for that matter. For the first time, she looked over her shoulder. Alcott looked unfazed by the conversation, almost mentally checked out. Which irked her.

“Do you seriously have nothing to say in this?”

He shrugged rather apathetically. “Why would I? You just made it clear you have free will, and I don’t.
