Rest for the Wicked
The end of the breaking period: Day 14, hour 8
âYouâve been in a coma for three days.â John hovered inches away from me.
Finally, some good news. I shifted and regretted it as my arm fell through the hole in my cot.
âYou could have died!â Johnâs brows were pinched with worry, and he didnât move away to give me some space.
I rubbed my hand across my face and was pleased by the feel of smooth, cold skin.
Iâd healed completely.
âSay something!â
I sighed heavily. âIâm trying to enjoy my coma and youâre ruining my peace.â People had no manners these days.
âSeriously?â John whined, âThatâs all you have to say?â
I rolled my eyes. âYay. Iâm awake. Now I can be tormented by a vampyre who has the hair and temperament of a large horse. Howâs that?â
Johnâs dark eyes were midnight black as his frown deepened. âYouâre a real piece of shit, Aran.â He flashed two dimples. âIâm gonna fuck you up if you ever do that to me again.â
My shoulders relaxed, and I lightly punched his shoulder.
He gently punched me back.
I punched him harder.
He slammed his fist against my bicep, and bones creaked.
âReally?â
âOh, man up.â To punctuate his statement, he punched me in the gut. A full wallop. âIf you can take fire, you can take a punch.â
My eyes watered. âNot sure thatâs how it works.â
âI make the rules, so I say it is. Donât be a wimp. Itâs awkward for everyone.â John smiled and pushed me over so he could lie next to me on the cot.
We didnât fit.
He shoved me through the hole so I was half-smushed on the rocks.
But I couldnât stop smiling.
There was something about Johnâs intense persona that put me on edge.
Like, when he was all dark and moody, our energies were too similar, but when he was all smiles and dimples, there was hope for us yet.
Johnâs dimples were a balm to my soul.
I couldnât wait for him to meet Sadie.
Out of nowhere, red lights exploded as flames consumed me.
Oh, wonderful. Iâm already having flashbacks.
I dug into my sweatshirt pocket and nearly wept with relief when I felt my pipe.
Lifting it to my lips, I closed my eyes.
The enchanted smoke filled my lungs with something blessedly close to indifference.
When I opened my eyes, the fire was gone.
I sighed out a ring of smoke. âSo what did I miss?â
âZenith, Horace, myself, and Malum lost our fights, so we spent an entire night in the Black Ocean. Since then, weâve attended some classes and run twice, but itâs been pretty chill.â
âSounds like paradise.â
Only a masochist would consider running twenty-plus miles at a sub-five-minute mile pace âchill.â
The sudden memory of Sadie trying to survive a singular mile had me chuckling.
Sheâd be so dead by now.
Johnâs voice filled with concern. âJust a heads-up. During our night in the ocean, Malum whispered all the ways he was going to kill you. Iâve never seen him so mad. No one has ever beaten him before. Iâm pretty sure like ever. In his entire life.
