Chapter 10

Fire and Smoke

Dead.

The moment I heard the word, my imagination ran rampant.

T-Man’s shout sounded like it had come from the west end of the camp. Was Hawk stationed at that side?

Hawk. Dead. A dark fist clutched my heart and squeezed. Steel was on his feet and pulling on his pants, almost jumping into them. I sprang to my feet, pulling on my skirt and top so fast I don’t know how they didn’t tear.

“Stay here,” Steel ordered, his hand on my chest holding me back from the tent entrance before I’d even taken a step.

He dashed out, and I followed him. Worry for Hawk made it impossible to obey Steel; I’d worry about the consequences later. Outside the tent, he rounded on me, growled in anger—for my following him, I assumed—then grabbed my hand and continued through the camp. I stumbled after him in the darkness, a cacophony of sound bombarding my ears.

The men raced out of tents, some headed for the west end of the camp, some headed for the other, all of them shouting to each other, one or two grabbing bows or swords.

Pretty Boy joined Steel along with Sheriff, both holding burning torches. We raced for the edge of the camp, the General quickly taking the lead. At Doc’s tent, he and Crash guarded Diamond and Emmy in a circle, the two women pulling on clothes.

“Why isn’t she in your tent?” Sheriff barked at Steel and Pretty Boy.

“Good question,” Steel said darkly.

Pretty Boy took up position on my other side, handing his torch to Doc, and it struck me how worried he looked. His usually relaxed expression was a rare scowl, those laughing blue eyes like ice. The Dark Legion was in him again, making him look harder, colder. Deadly. His fair face looked bloodless. I’d have said he looked scared, but he appeared too scary to look afraid.

“If Hawk’s dead, I’ll kill him,” he muttered.

If the situation hadn’t been so alarming, I’d have smiled at the worry buried in his threat.

At the edge of the camp, someone held up a torch, its fire piercing the night. We reached the outer perimeter, where bikes made a ring around the tents.

Two bodies lay on the ground, shadowed mounds in the darkness. Hawk crouched over them.

Hawk. He was all right. Relief flooded me, so strong it was dizzying, and I barely resisted the urge to run to him.

But if he was okay, then who…

Throwing the torch on the ground and extinguishing the flame with his boot, Sheriff hurried over and knelt between the bodies. Beside him, I covered my mouth, my heart in my throat.

Latch lay on his back, motionless, his expression frozen in a look of shock. A single bolt stuck out of his neck. Pup lay beside him on his side, another bolt jutting from his chest. Blood spilled out of his mouth, turning the ground around his head black in the night.

“They’re both dead, General,” Hawk drawled in his always stoic voice. He straightened, gripping his bow so tightly it threatened to snap in half.
