.A hand clamped down over her throat before she could move an inch.Oliver had moved in quickly.The warmth in his gaze had been replaced byice. I would have thought a nephilim filled with black magic wasimpossible.She s more dangerous than I thought, especially with thatdemon inside of her. Eden grabbed his wrist, but the man was inhumanly strong. Take yourdamn hands off me, you bastard.Ben, help me! Ben stood with his fists clenched at his sides. Oliver, let her go.Yousaid she wouldn t be harmed. That was before I learned she was a black witch. Oliver s headtwisted to the side. Come here and hold her still.Do it. Ben grabbed Eden s arms and pulled her off the sofa to hold her firmlyin place in front of him. What are you doing? she managed, trying to look at him over hershoulder.His fingers dug painfully into her skin. I don t seem to have a choice, Ben said, his voice strained. I have todo what he says. Eden gasped when she felt the bite of cold, sharp steel against herthroat.Oliver held a dagger there.Her gaze went to Sandy.The witch sgaze held fear for Eden, but she made no move to help. I m sorry it had to come to this so quickly, Oliver said.Panic slicedthrough her as she felt a warm trickle of blood run down her throat. I don twant to destroy a nephilim such a rare, special creature.But you re ablack witch, so I have no choice.Earlier I wasn t sure how to extract thedemon without hurting you.With your death it won t be an issue. He wasn t joking.He was going to kill her.She had seconds left.Herrapidly beating heart would soon stop forever. I m so sorry, Eden. Ben s voice caught on the words, but his gripdidn t lessen for a moment.Ben had wanted to help her.Would he feel guilty for holding her inplace while another man slit her throat? Or would he be able to justify it tohimself as another case of good triumphing over evil? You re making a huge mistake, she managed to say.Oliver shook his head. I don t make mistakes.I make decisions, andthey are always the right ones. He moved to slash her throat and a scream caught in her chest, butthe knife froze in midair before it made contact.For a split second, Edenthought it was Sandy coming to her rescue.But it wasn t Sandy.It was her.Eden s skin tingled and something that felt like electricity moved downher arms and into her hands.It was her black magic.Oliver gripped the blade tighter and arched it toward her again.Therage that had been simmering inside Eden until now rose completely tothe surface, and she gave in to it since she had no other choice.With amere thought she was able to pull the dagger from Oliver s grasp andlaunch it across the room where it embedded itself into the wall.Eden s mind cleared of all the fear and pain and panic she d felt beforeas she opened herself to her magic.She didn t want to die.They d left herwith no choice but to tap into the very thing she d promised never to useagain.Her soul was in jeopardy.But, at the moment, her life came first. Kill her now, Oliver snarled.He was instructing Ben.Without hesitation, Ben s hands went around her throat from behind,and he began to squeeze.He was very strong, and it didn t take longbefore Eden began to see spots before her eyes as he choked her. I m so sorry, Eden.I never meant for this to happen. His voice washoarse with pain. I m sorry, too. She grasped more of her magic and launched himbackward.She spun on her heels just in time to see him hit the wall hardand slide down to the ground unconscious. Her eyes widened at what she d done so easily, but any guiltdisappeared as quickly as it arrived.The more she used the black magic,the more her anger increased, like a huge, rolling wave ready to crash intothe shore.She really wanted to destroy something channel this energythat was growing inside of her with every passing moment.She knew shecould level this entire house with a well-placed thought.Hopefully Ben had a good insurance policy.She turned to check where Oliver was, only to receive a backhandedslap across her face that sent pain skittering through her. Ow. She glared at him. That s no way to win friends and influencepeople. Witch he d retrieved the knife and had it in his grip again I willend you. She cocked her head to the side. And here I thought we were goingto be buddies. His teeth were clenched. Black magic will destroy you. But not if you get me first, right? I can help you, he said, raising the blade. This is the only way. The only way you can help me is to kill me? Sure, that made heapsof sense, you sanctimonious prick. When Oliver lunged at her, a ripple of magic exited her and wrappedhim up in dark light.It raised him up off the floor, and he hovered in the airfor a moment.The fear in his eyes made it clear that he thought shewould kill him.Why should she care about his life? He d nearly ended hers.And hewould have, if she hadn t tapped into her shiny black magic.Her stomach twinged with pain from using her magic this time, but itwasn t anything she couldn t handle.A couple Midols would take care ofthese cramps. Come near me or Darrak again and I ll kill you.Understand me? Hervoice, just like her body at the moment, was filled with darkness.Oliver nodded. Yes. Another focused magical thought from her and Oliver s eyes rolledback into his head.He dropped to the ground unconscious. Eden cast a dark look at Sandy, who d crawled away from them intothe corner. Thanks for the head s-up, Eden said.Sandy just nodded, her eyes filled with fear and apprehension.Eden left the house, and the black magic continued to swirl aroundher.Her heart pounded hard, and the rage she felt earlier wasn t in anyhurry to leave.It scared her.And it also.excited her. Darrak.Are you there? she asked quietly.He didn t respond, but she could feel him under layer after layer ofdampening.Her head felt foggy, cloudy, dazed.She didn t remember how exactlyshe got home, but suddenly she was there.Her body trembled.The blackmagic continued to spark through her, but she felt drained, like an emptyglass waiting to be filled.She let out a shaky breath and looked up at her apartment buildingthrough the darkness.Sandy said she d know how to put up wards.Shedid.With the magic flowing freely it was easier than she ever would haveimagined.She waved her hand through the air and turned slowly around in acircle.North, south, east, west.No one shall enter this place who wishesdeadly harm to me [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
