“Bitch!” Thane roared mentally as he pushed on, now only wanting to face her and swat away her weak little soldiers.
“Mmm,” she replied. “Delicious. You really should try some.”
As Thane finally reached the red, rapidly spreading cloud, some of it seeped into his nostrils. It was delicious, but it was wrong.
“Take care of him, please,” Evelyn’s voice said, pinging off each shark in her school and making its way over to Thane.
Her inability to focus her communication on one shark tipped him off. He was stronger, faster, and more experienced than all her followers.
“Come at me!” he shouted.
One of the tiger sharks in her family turned toward him with an arm clenched in his teeth. He devoured it quickly and darted toward Thane.
“Big mistake,” Thane said as he skidded right and swung back around in time to sink his teeth into one of the shark’s pectoral fins.
“Motherfucker,” the shark cried. “Let go!”
“Giving you something to remember me by,” Thane said as he ripped his snout right, tearing off a small chunk of the fin and swallowing it. “Next time, stick to sea turtles.”
The shark cried out.
Thane hated hurting his own. He could have done so much more damage, but this was only a warning. Maybe next time this guy would remember him and would steer clear.
“Get him!” Evelyn commanded.
She would never come after him herself. She wouldn’t admit it, but Thane knew she was afraid. Her yuppies would do her bidding, and they would each suffer for it.
Three more sharks charged at him and Thane was sure Axel was one of them. He hated that guy with every ounce of his being. He wasn’t sure which of the sharks transformed into the shaggy blond, blue-eyed human, but if he could figure it out, he’d make sure to leave him a permanent scar he couldn’t hide in his two-legged form.
Like an underwater fighter pilot, Thane swung his body around to the right, but the other sharks followed. Even though he was the biggest of the group and was much more skilled in the fight, he knew he was in danger if all three pounced on him at once.
Where the fuck is Kino?!
“Over here, bruh,” his best friend and right-hand man announced, his voice sinking into his brain.
From somewhere behind him, Kino, Faith, and Jagger dashed into view, slamming into the opposing three swimmers.
“There’s no need for this,” Thane tried to tell Evelyn once more. “Take your school and leave!”
Sharks from both sides swam at each other, dodging and snapping. Finally, Evelyn’s voice echoed through the water as she mentally yelled, “Enough! Retreat!”
“Damn right!” Kino replied.
“You should warn your flunky what happens to sharks who think they can trash talk me, Thane,” Evelyn replied.
“I’ve already heard,” Kino snapped back. “Your sexual abstinence is legendary.”
Thane would have laughed out loud if he were in human form. Evelyn had no ability to refrain from sex. She was known for taking a new man into her bed nearly every night.
“We need to talk,” Thane told Evelyn, and all the other sharks heard.
“Are you trying to call a meeting with me?” she replied. “I’m afraid that has always resulted in far too little talking. You never could resist me.”
Finally, Thane spotted her up ahead as she turned around and swam away from the area. He chased after her.
“Enough is enough,” he told her. “Put an end to this. You’re only calling more attention to us.”
“Attention is good,” she replied. “It keeps our reflexes in tune. Go back to your island and wait for my next attack. It’s what you do best.”
