Kyle’s heart was thudding, and it was an effort to catch his breath. The emotion that came from the young woman was overwhelming in its intensity. Perhaps her age and the way teenagers felt everything so deeply made it more powerful. He’d felt the fear and the flash of hope when she believed the deputy was on her way, he’d experienced the terror and the pain when she was attacked. He’d felt it all and yet seen nothing. Neither had Tess, for the attack came swiftly and without warning. She’d died before she ever got even a glimpse of her attacker.

Ava squeezed his hand. In a way she grounded him, and he managed to find his way out of the blackness and back to the light. Her light. As long as she was on the other side, the darkness could never hold him. He blew out a long breath and looked up at three expectant faces.

“She didn’t see who killed her.”

“Son of a bitch,” Jayne bit out. “I thought you guys came here to help. So far you haven’t given me shit.”

He’d be offended except she was right. Nothing very helpful had come out of anything they’d done yet. His confidence wasn’t waning, however. In fact, if anything this made him more determined to find the werewolf responsible. Tess might not have seen her attacker, but she’d felt the teeth that sank into her neck and punctured her carotid artery. No run-of-the-mill animal had made that bite. No, this was a thinking, planning beast that knew exactly where to attack to inflict a maximum fatal injury, to make certain the girl died quickly before help could arrive, like the wolf knew the deputy was on her way.

“You know,” he said as he intertwined his fingers with Ava’s. He didn’t want to break contact with her. With his skin touching hers he felt stronger. “She didn’t see her attacker, but something about the attacker struck me as odd.”

“What do you mean?” Lily asked.

“She was killed very efficiently, the bite placed perfectly to end her life the quickest way possible. That tear in her artery made her bleed out in minutes. She never had a chance even with the deputy on her way.”

For a long moment the three women stared at him. Jayne spoke up first. “What kind of motherfucker are we chasing?”

He couldn’t have said it better himself. “The kind that doesn’t hesitate to squash a young woman who was on the verge of starting her life.”

“A dangerous one,” Lily added. “Very dangerous.”

Ava released his hand and he wanted to grab it back. “This is all horrible, and if I can do anything like cleanse this place and the poor girl, I’d like to. I want to make sure her soul is set free of the tangled mess that used to be her body. It’s not much, but I can do that for her.” She was right. He’d done what little he could, and now it was up to Ava to do her magic.
