And disappeared into the storm.
“MOVE!” Rook barked instantly.
Gunfire exploded again.
This time from three directions.
Not Hollow Men.
Snipers.
The first round hit one of Shadow Division’s operators square in the vest hard enough to throw him backward.
The second shattered the rock beside Wolf’s head.
The third?—
was aimed directly at Flick.
I saw it coming.

Didn’t hesitate.
I grabbed her and twisted?—
Pain detonated through my side like fire.
Flick screamed my name as we crashed hard into the mud together.
61
FELICITY
“HERSH!”
The scream ripped out of me before I even realized I was making it.
We hit the ground hard.
Mud.
Rain.
Blood.
His body covered mine completely as bullets tore through the trees above us.
“Hersh—oh my God?—”
His arm locked around me tighter instantly.
“Stay down.”
But his voice?—
Something was wrong with his voice.
