CHAPTER 26

River

I lay, gaping at where I’d flung Azote into the gas pumps. Small bursts of sparks continued to arc through my fingers as he started to climb back to his feet. The ground beneath me quaked from the impact of the beasts I’d seen racing toward us.

My heart thundered at the sudden appearance of this new enemy. My body was more bruised and battered than it had ever been before. I’d just had my ass handed to me by an angel, and now I’d have to fight off these new creatures too.

The beasts howled as they rushed past me, rattling my eardrums and causing some of the ghosts inside the truck stop to flit away from the windows. I’d never seen anything so amazing or impressive as the dying flames trailing behind the massive creatures.

Azote regained his feet a second before the first one leapt at him. The creature’s mouth was wide open and its six-inch hooked claws were ready to rip into Azote’s flesh. The beast pounced on him, sinking its fangs into Azote’s forearm. It then began to roll across the pavement like an alligator in a death roll with Azote hanging out of its mouth.

The other creature stopped to watch the action with a tilt of its head before it changed direction and charged toward me. I scrambled backward on my elbows before staggering to my feet. They had been set on attacking Azote when they’d first arrived, but maybe they were as indiscriminate about who they killed as the madagans had been. My hands flew up, ready to blast this thing away from me, but before it reached me, it spun around to stand directly between Azote and me.

I stood gawking at the creature as it roared again, revealing fangs that would make a sabre-tooth tiger cower. Its sleek black coat shone as its hackles rose and the front of its body hunched down a little. The brilliant amber of its eyes reminded me of…

Kobal!

My head shot up, and my eyes scanned the road, but because of the complete darkness out there and the brilliant light before me, I could barely see fifty feet away from me. He was out there somewhere, he had to be, and these were the hounds he’d told me he harbored within him.

Hellhounds. As I stared at the gigantic head before me, I could see exactly why they were called that. It had a head that looked like a wolf’s, but a prehistoric wolf, one who could shred a T-Rex. Its head came up to my chin and its broad shoulders were at my chest.

This thing could crush me with one blow, but it stayed in front of me, its claws clicking on the pavement as it prowled back and forth, eager to join the fight. The other one had pinned Azote; its claws curled into his stomach to tear into the sensitive flesh. It had to be excruciating, but Azote didn’t make a sound as his hands held open the jaws trying to clamp down on his head.
