CHAPTER ELEVEN
Outside Enforcer HQ
Darting past the Enforcers at the door who were firing back at a group of attackers, Valerie paused only long enough to notice that the crowd who’d been protesting earlier had dispersed. There were some still nearby, but making a run for it. More than one was staggering as if they’d been shot, and Valerie didn’t doubt that some might have been killed.
If there was one thing she hated, it was the innocent suffering.
Mercer was in for a beat down.
She couldn’t let herself be noticed, not in a crowd this size, in broad daylight. Moving in the shadows to go unnoticed, she flanked three gunmen opposite HQ and quickly disposed of them—the first by breaking his neck, the next two with the first’s rifle.
For all she knew, this next part of the fight would take a lot out of her, so she pulled one of the dying men into a side alley and drank from him, doing her best to ignore the terror in his slowly fading eyes.
Yes, she’d killed many times now, and drunk from her victims… but it never got easier.
"Valerie!" a gruff voice called, and she turned to see Mecha with a team of Weres decked out in combat gear. They must’ve healed up already. With a sniff in the air he picked up her scent and soon spotted her, but a shot rang out forcing him to take cover.
"I’ve got this!" Valerie shouted, and then took off to the closest building she’d seen the shots coming from.
She’d been tested plenty since arriving in America only a couple of nights ago, but a part of her still worried every time she knew trouble was coming. For one, she fucking hated pain. It didn’t matter how fast she could heal, when the memory of the sensation of a blade tearing through flesh or of bones breaking never went away.
Her years of training back in France was paying off big-time, and now it was time to test herself further.
The door at the side of the building was locked, but she kicked it, and it went flying off its hinges. She stormed up a stairwell, following the sound of shots and then the scent of men.
There was no worrying about them knowing about the UnknownWorld here—they’d be dead in a matter of moments.
Her eyes glowed red, and her fangs emerged, as she drew her sword. It felt like an extension of her arm, like it had always been there. With her other hand she drew her pistol, and then burst through the door that led to the room of shooters.
They turned to her, ready to fire, but she was gone, moving in a blur. An arm chopped off here, a shot to the head there, and then she paused long enough to kick one of them so hard it sent him flying through the drywall to embed into the wall.
More shots, but she was dodging past them, her sword moving like a tornado of steel.
And then the second to last of them dropped, his rifle hitting the floor with a clang.
