Chapter 16

Damn! Orla thought and knew she was in trouble. Think harder. Orla searched her mind frantically for what her aunty had told her about Bricius, about his weaknesses. She had to make him angry. She’d done that. He was furious, and he was now burning. The internal flame alone would kill him. Once it caught, he could never put it out. But it was dying down now. Why? Think harder.

Bricius started laughing. “You were the smartest, the best in your clan. I was fond of you, and I regret having to lose you like this.” He laughed louder as the fire turned toward Orla.

She crouched and erected a protection boundary around her just before the fire hit. Its force was so strong that it knocked her out of her protection zone. She crawled on the ground, trying to avoid her own blade of fire. Regaining her feet, she raised her arms. The fire at her end died out, and the fire at Bricius’s flamed up again.

He withdrew a step and swung his arms. A wave of icy particles appeared like a crystal arm. The arm extinguished the fire around Bricius, then twirled around, flattened like a sheet, and flew toward Orla. She only had barely enough time to turn away and cover her face before the ice particles rained down on her like a million pieces of broken glass. Orla slumped to the ground, bleeding.

Bricius approached Orla. “You’re trying to be a good girl, aren’t you? You think your pathetic little white spell can stop me? You’d do much better using dark magic.”

Blood streamed from what seemed like every part of Orla’s body, but she smiled weakly and said, “I pity those who love you.” He approached as she dragged herself backward on the ground. She didn’t understand why her fire had failed.

Bricius crouched. “I don’t want to kill you now. I want you to live to see me destroy your lover. But with you bleeding like that in the middle of the woods, any creature coming around is going to devour you, and that ain’t my problem.”

“If I die, Lorcan will mourn. He loves me, you know. And my family will seek revenge. I have people who love me. If I die here, I’d die a happy woman.”

“Your lover might seek revenge—if he lives. But your family? I doubt it. Do you really think I had nothing better to do with my time and power than to kill those girls? And just so that you are the first in line for the alpha role? Ask your parents for the truth! Oh, wait a minute—you can’t, they’re dead. We’re not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but the truth is, they hired me to do that dirty job.”

“Liar.”

“Why would I lie?”

“Because you’re lonely, Bricius. My family loves me. If my parents have done evil things to put me in power, they did it because they loved me. You have no family. You lie to me to make yourself feel better.
