Sneak Peek from Seize the Night [Enchanted 2]
Floating back into consciousness,
Emery blinked several times to dispel the blurriness from his eyes. When he
could finally focus, the first thing he noticed was an angel kneeling over him,
touching him, and whispering words he didn’t understand. Great, I did die.
“How are you feeling, carus?”
Emery frowned but didn’t comment
as he assessed his injuries. Other than a headache, some soreness, and the
taste of blood on his tongue, he felt completely fine. “I think I’m okay.”
“Good, I’m glad you’re alive, but we
need to move. Can you stand?”
“Where are we going?” While he was
mostly okay physically, his brain was a scrambled mess of confusion and
disorientation.
“They will be back, carus. We must go.”
“They?”
Memories slammed into Emery, stealing
the breath from his lungs as his pulse raced out of control. With shaking
hands, he inspected his body, searching for missing pieces of flesh. He
found none, but he distinctly remembered being bitten and scratched. Levering
himself into a sitting position, he ignored the spinning of his head, and
stared wide-eyed at the man in front of him.
“What the fuck were those things?
Who the fuck are you? What the fuck
are you?” He dug his heels into the wet dirt and pushed backward, creating
distance between him and Gaius.
“I am Gaius. I am a Moirai of the Forbidden
Cirlce of the Limbo Realm. Those things
were nekros—bringers of death.” Gaius
spoke calmly as though they hadn’t almost died. “What is your name, carus?”
“It sure the hell isn’t carus!” Emery knew he sounded like a
complete asshole, but he figured he had the right considering he’d just been
mauled by a pack of werewolves. It was almost too fantastical to believe, but
he knew what he’d seen.
Gaius just raised an eyebrow at
him, staring back patiently. Emery wanted to punch him right in his stupid,
beautiful face. “Emery.”
“Okay, Emery, we must leave. Can
you stand?” Gaius repeated his earlier inquiry.
“Why am I not dead?”
“Please, we must leave. There will
be time for questions later.” Moving closer, he held his hand out to help Emery
up from the dirt.
Crab walking backward from the
offered hand as though it was a poisonous snake, Emery jumped to his feet and
began to pace. His fingers curled and relaxed at his sides, and he shook his
head in agitation as he mumbled curses under his breath.
“I guess you can stand,” Gaius
said sarcastically. So, the little guy had some fire in him. Good to know.
