CHAPTER

19

Ewan was going to destroy every single one of those low-life bastards. Those piece-of-shit sore losers had messed with the wrong male. After the fucked-up night he’d had, Ewan was more than ready to blow off a little steam. If they wanted a fight, he’d sure as hell give them one.

“Wait in the car.”

He might have wanted to deliver unimaginable pain to the demons who thought they could bully him, but he wasn’t about to risk Sasha’s safety in the process. He reached for the door handle and stopped as Sasha grasped his arm.

“You’re kidding, right?” Silver laced her disbelieving gaze. “You think I’m actually going to sit here and watch while you go out there and get yourself killed?”

Her lack of faith in his fighting prowess left little to be desired. He’d deal with that later, though. In the meantime, he wasn’t about to let her step foot outside the car. Not that it would do much to protect her from hellfire, but if it came down to it, she could at least beat a hasty retreat.

“You’re injured and weak, and you’re not getting out of this car. Do you understand me, Sasha?” Ewan’s gaze drilled into hers for emphasis. Her stubborn expression filled him with a dark foreboding that did nothing for the anxious energy that cycled through him. The odds were against him and he needed every ounce of focus he could muster. Distractions would only help to get them both killed.

“I’ll stay in the car if you do.”

Ewan clenched his jaw so tight that the enamel of his teeth ground from the force. Gods, she was a stubborn pain in the ass. “I don’t have time to argue with you. Stay in the car, Sasha. Slide over to the driver’s seat and if shit goes south, hit the gas and get the hell out of here.”

She met him look for look. “No.”

Sasha frustrated the fuck out of him. He opened his mouth, ready to tell her he’d kill her himself if she didn’t do as he said, when several dark figures emerged from the flames. Impervious to their own hellfire, the demons strode toward the car, dark outlines against the bright backdrop. Their time had run out.

“Let me take point. Don’t engage unless you have no other choice. And for the love of the gods, Sasha, don’t piss anyone off with that mouth of yours!” Ewan had no choice but to stand and fight and hope Sasha would come to her senses and stay where she’d be safe.

He let out a frustrated huff of breath as he got out of the car. All he needed was one more complication in the current clusterfuck that was his life. Apparently, Sorath hadn’t been too pleased about Ewan brushing him off earlier tonight. He wanted to get his point across and wasn’t above sending his henchmen to throw supernatural fire across the city to get it done.

It wouldn’t be long before the local fire departments were deployed to the scene.
