Sawyer

Searing hot pain ripped through my chest as my connection with Sloane and Lincoln was severed. I blinked my eyes open and groaned.

I clapped my palm against my chest. Liquid warmth seeped between my fingers and I lifted my hand. Blood coated my palm.

Movement caught my eye. Fiona leaned over me, her eyes daggers of accusation.

What the? I scrambled across the bed, almost falling off the other side.

I grasped my comforter and hauled it to my chest, trying to staunch the bleeding. “What the hell are you doing in my room?”

If this was some ploy to get with me yet again, then she was going to be sorry.

She glanced at her hand, a sickening fascination crossing over her features, before she popped one finger in her mouth and sucked the blood off it. “I wanted to surprise you.”

Surprise me? She sure as hell did that. I jabbed my finger toward the door. “You have no right to be in here. Get out.”

She crossed her arms over her chest and pouted. “I don’t like how you’re talking to me, Sawyer. It’s rude.”

Rude? What was she on? “You broke into my room without permission. Get out.” I was five seconds away from throwing her out. What the hell was wrong with her.

She narrowed her eyes and sucked another bloodied finger into her mouth. She popped it back out, her eyes widening as she examined her digits. “I don’t think I will.”

My bedroom door creaked open, and my father walked in, followed by Drake. There was something in my father’s hand. I gulped as he lifted his arm up.

Fuck!

My pulse pounded in my ears. I couldn’t move, my limbs becoming a hundred pounds each, leaving me paralyzed unable to tear my gaze away. It was a severed head, and not just anyone. It was Ruby‘s brother, Luke.

Blood dribbled on the hardwood from the jagged fresh cut along his neckline.

Dad grinned as he turned Luke’s face toward him. Then he chucked it like a football at me. It landed on my bed, bouncing and then rolling across the sheets.

I shot backward, my back colliding with the headboard. Luke’s face stared up at me. His mouth twisted in an ‘o’ shape and his eyes wide. Bile crept up my throat, and I gagged. I was going to be sick.

No. You can’t be. Be strong. He doesn’t know about you. He can’t. Right?

Play it cool.

You don’t know what’s happening yet.

I forced even breaths in through my nose and out of my mouth. “What’s this?” I couldn’t keep the edge from my voice.

The question was had Dad noticed it? I really hoped not. This had to be a test. Or he knew.

Stay calm. Breathe.

Dad pushed my door open farther, sauntering into the room. He stopped halfway between the door and my bed, crossing his arms over his chest. He tapped his foot on the floor. “I found our conspirator.” he motioned to the head. “As you can see, he’s been dealt with accordingly.”

I pushed the covers back, fighting the urge to cover Luke’s face with them.
