Chapter Seventeen

Several vines exploded up from the ground, wrapping themselves around the downed poachers. A flash came from my side as Gwen rushed in and kicked the emo man in his kneecap, tearing all the ligaments in his knee with a sickening pop and sending him crumbling to the ground in a heap.

I sprang forward and followed Gwen’s kick with a punch across the man’s face, knocking him out cold.

The hulking man grunted loudly as he fought against Dahlia’s snare and blood poured down out of his wound. As I approached, I could see fear rise in his eyes. “Don’t kill us, please don’t kill us. We’re only doing what Striker wants us to do. He promised he’d leave our families alone if we joined him.”

I breathed heavily as adrenaline coursed through my body. I stared at the man with fire in my eyes. “So as long as your family is safe, it gives you the right to tear other’s families apart? Is that what you’re saying?”

The large man stopped struggling. “But... but... they’re monsters. It’s not the same.”

I clenched my knife firmly in my damaged hand. It took everything I had not to end the man. “You ever stop and think that maybe you’re the fucking monster? You piece of shit. I should kill you right now.”

The large man shook his head as tears welled in the corners of his eyes. “Please, I’ll tell you anything! Just please, don’t kill me.”

The black-haired man stirred on the ground and let out a loud groan as he remained pinned by Dahlia’s vines. I stepped forward and the youngest man objected. I reached back and slapped him solidly across the face, sending a loud crack through the forest. My eyes settled on the abnormally large man. “Tell me where they’re being sent.”

The man stuttered slightly and finally could get the words out. “Th... they were taking them up north to the capitol. Striker said that once we delivered enough of them he’d release us from his service and we’d get to go home as rich men.” He looked around wide-eyed. “Someone is paying good money for these girls. Their telekinetic abilities, especially their Sight. People pay big money just for the chance to unlock that skill, although I don’t know why, it’s not like any human has ever learned Sight from them, anyway.”

“Shut up, don’t tell him anything else.” The young man said. He kept his eyes focused on me as if I’d kicked his dog. “He can cultivate. Don’t you idiots get what that means? We have to get him back to the King!”

“Drop it Aether. I know you don’t care if you die, but I do, I have a family to think about,” the large man replied.

I ignored Aether and studied the big guy’s face. There was nothing that led me to believe he was lying. I turned to Gwen, and she gave me a smile and awkward shrug. I turned back to the men. “I’m not heartless, so I’m going to let you go free, just this once.
