It was little protection

against a god. Still, a slim chance was better than none at all. As she ran for her bedroom, she realized it wasn't a bullet that had hit her. It was a potent tranquilizer. The room swam in front of her eyes as she struggled to walk. Her legs were heavy, hard to move, and felt as if she were trying to walk through murky concrete.

It was too much effort to

move. The next thing she knew, everything went black. Bleeding and hurt, Talon fought as best he could. Every time he got up, someone shone another light straight into his eyes and shot more bullets into his body. His eyes burned like fire and he could barely open them.

He struggled to reach

Sunshine. Camulus hit him with a god-bolt and slammed him against the far wall.

Talon stared at him, his body throbbing and aching as he bled.

Nonchalantly, Camulus picked

Sunshine up in his arms and stared at her. "She's a pretty little thing, isn't she? Even more lovely than she was the first time." He looked back at Talon with a sinister grin twisting his lips. "You have no idea what I intend to do with her." He kissed her on the cheek. "But I promise you, you will find out."

Talon roared with the weight

of his rage. "So help me, Camulus, I'll kill you if you harm her."

Camulus threw his head back

and laughed, then strode casually from the room. Talon could barely breathe from the pain as Camulus lowered him and he fell to his knees. He was covered in blood, which made it even harder to move across the now slippery hardwood floor. But it didn't stop him from trying.

Keeping Sunshine safe was all

that mattered. Someone started ripping the blinds down from the windows, spilling sunlight into the room. Talon growled as the daylight singed his skin and he lunged for the door where Camulus had vanished. Three men rushed him, knocking him back.

He kicked and punched his way

through them and followed Camulus. He ran after them to the back door of the club where they vanished into the alley. Thinking only about saving her, Talon didn't realize he was in the sunlight until he felt his skin catching fire.

Cursing, he fell back into the club and watched helplessly as Camulus paused at the car and held Sunshine's head up so that Talon could see her face.

"Say goodbye to your

wife, Speirr. Don't worry. I'll take really good care of her."

Camulus put her in a car and

drove away.

"No!" Talon shouted.

He wouldn't be the death of Sunshine.

Not again.

Night Embrace

Chapter 11

It was close to four in the

afternoon when Nick rounded the corner of the Pedestrian Mall and caught sight of Ash standing outside of the Corner Cafe, waiting for him. The Atlantean was leaning back against the red-brick wall with his arms folded over his chest and one leg bent and braced on the wall in a way that looked nonchalant, and yet Nick knew Ash could launch himself into action at the slightest provocation.
