Chapter Twelve

Lorn

All I saw was the flash.

All I heard was the pop.

All I felt was the reflex as the shotgun kicked in my hand.

The bullet from his pistol spun in midair an inch from the middle of my forehead. I reached out and plucked the hot metal from the space as Henry gasped and then lunged, leaving a bloody trail behind.

“The answers, Henry!” I racked the chamber, ejecting the rounds, and then reached for my pocket.

Pellets had shredded his crisp white shirt, leaving strips to flap as he scurried.

Desperation filled him now, I could smell it thick and foul.

“What is Titus Banks, and who are the other members of the Nine?”

The woman’s screams outside turned guttural as Henry crawled across broken glass and then stumbled to his feet.

I could see her standing just outside the doorway, her hand over her wide-open mouth. There were shouts of the police are coming, as I stepped closer to the guards and knelt. Fear filled their gaze, until one closed his eyes tight.

“They’re coming, but they’re not here, are they?” I murmured.

One shook his head, the other stayed perfectly still.

“You know what I am?” There was a tremble, I took that for a nod. “Shoot me again and you won’t have time to take your last fucking breath. You got me?”

I didn’t wait, only shoved to a stand as I grabbed their guns. Henry was all the way into the foyer by the time I reached the screaming woman. I lifted a hand, finger poised in the air, and strode closer.

Black flames danced like a flamethrower. “Shut it.”

Her eyes widened as she shook her head. Strands of perfect hair fell to her shoulders. I saw myself now, in the reflection of those tear-filled eyes.

I saw the thing I’d hunted.

The thing I swore I’d never be.

I saw a monster.

I jerked my gaze from her to the gutless bastard that hurled himself onto the reception desk. Others were cowering behind it. I could hear them…I could smell them.

I could sense them…panic…terror…pain.

“Give me the fucking answers, Henry.”

Rage spilled free. He was making me do this, making me be this…

He was doing this all to himself.

“Fuck you!” he screamed and then turned, shoving his back against the edge of the counter. A woman cowered at the edge, young, pretty, blue eyes trained on me.

I knew what was in his head the moment he saw her, and I knew how this would all end.

“Don’t,” I snarled as he lunged for her.

She punched and screamed, but he caught her fist midair and wrenched her upwards.

“Let her go, you piece of shit,” I lifted the muzzle and aimed in the middle of his forehead.

It was wrong.

Wrong for me to care about her life and not his.

I knew that, and still it was his vile soul I wanted. His dark eyes glinted, salvation only one innocent life away. He glanced toward the door a second before he made his move.

“Fuck you, stupid fucking cunt!” he roared and then shoved her.

The young girl stumbled forward, arms out, gaze glued to the gun in my hand.
