Chapter 12

Darkness washed over the field. The only light came from the stars and rising moon.

A rifle fired from somewhere close by.

Panicked screams came from the crowd.

The guards shouted at one another, asking for and barking orders.

“The backup generator will kick in! Stay where you are!” Tony screamed with such force that his voice cracked.

Another gunshot came from Lance’s right.

A dozen more followed it.

The guards holding Cass cried out in surprise and pain.

A vampire shrieked again. It sounded close to Lance. Too close.

Chaos ensued as the crowd fled in every direction.

The lights flickered back on a moment later, blinding Lance as he fought to free himself once again. He squinted against the glare and lifted his head, searching for the location of the gunfire.

Several flashes pulsed behind the garage. The guards on either side of Lance spun around in confusion, shouting at each other. They dropped in rapid succession as bullets tore through their camouflage jackets.

Thick, hulky arms dragged three people into the darkness of the forest. Lance caught a flash of translucent flesh before the arms disappeared into the shadows. The victims screamed for help. Their cries cut off seconds later.

Tony still held his hand in the air as he looked around in confusion. The man had grown so arrogant, so relaxed in his compound, that he couldn’t fathom someone attacking him.

Lance hoped he could see the king’s first knight fall.

The back window of the truck chained to his feet had crimson gore sliding down it.

The guards who had held Cass down were on the ground, clutching at wounds in their torsos.

Cass was gone.

Brown had his feet under him. He hauled Eifort to hers. How he’d freed his hands, Lance didn’t know. The two of them sprinted through the mayhem that consumed the clearing, weaving their way between fleeing people.

One of the guards plowed into Brown, shoving him sideways against Eifort. The guard tackled Brown, landing beside him. They rolled on the ground, throwing sloppy punches at each other.

Lance swiveled his head around, searching for Cass.

Tony spotted the muzzle flares in the woods and dropped Cass’ axe to the ground. He pulled his pistol from its holster and dropped to a knee. Fire belched from the barrel as he unloaded in their direction.

Hot brass flipped through the air, landing beside Lance in the grass.

The pistol clicked empty. Tony ejected the clip and reached for another.

Cass exploded from a hiding spot in front of the truck chained to Lance’s hands. She sprinted at Tony’s back, her face distorted in anger.

Tony lifted a second clip to his pistol and was about to jam it home when Cass leapt onto his back.

She looped her hands over his head and yanked backward, bringing the chain of the handcuffs against his throat. Her legs wrapped around his waist, holding her in place.

Tony stumbled forward, the pistol and clip falling from his hands. He grabbed at the chain across his throat, trying to get a finger under it.

Cass screamed in fury and pulled harder, leaning backward as far as she could.
