My eyes flutter open to a mask covering my face, a black cat mask similar to mine, but with lace and little kitty ears, gems studded all over the eyes, along with a cute crystal button for a nose, complete with whiskers and all.
My lips part, but I don’t know what to say.
His glinting green eye and pearly whites find mine in the mirror. “You said only killing makes you feel better … So let’s kill.”
A bright grin forms on my lips, rivaling his. “What a sweet, sinful proposal. I’m in.”
MILO
That night
I closethe buttons on my shirt and pull up my pants, zipping up before I put on my bulletproof vest. Can’t risk getting shot a second time.
When I’m done strapping in, I grab my white mask and march out the door with my bag. The car out front is being loaded up with equipment and stuff, and when I hop down the steps, they all look at me like they’re seeing a walking corpse.
“Hey, guys,” I say, waving as I casually place my gear into the trunk.
Nathan glares at me while clutching the passenger’s seat door. “What do you think you’re doing?”
“Coming with you,” I say with a beaming smile.
“I think the fuck not.” He slams the door shut. “You should be upstairs, resting.”
Kai closes the trunk door. “It’s not safe for you.”
“If it’s not safe for me, it’s not safe for you. So why are you going?” I raise a brow.
“Because she needs a kill,” Kai says, pointing at Lana, who sticks her head out the window.
“Are you sure you want to say that out loud?” she asks.
“It’s the middle of the night. No one’s listening,” Kai responds without looking at her.
Nathan’s gaze remains fixated on me, and he doesn’t seem too pleased.
“I don’t like it when you guys go without me,” I say.
“Milo, I don’t want you dying on me again,” Nathan says.
“I’ve got this vest.” I pluck at it to show it to him. “Won’t be dying anytime soon.”
Nathan makes a tsk sound. “That won’t keep the bullets out of your brain.”
“What bullets?” I retort, sporting my nunchucks. “Hit ’em in the head before they even try. Pow.” I flick them around.
Kai snorts. “You’re ridiculous.”
I resort to pouting. “Please.”
Kai rolls his eyes. “Fine.”
“What?” Nathan throws up his hand. “You can’t be serious.”
“Dead serious. He’s not gonna let this slide,” Kai says.
“Nope,” I add.
“It’s late, and we’ve already wasted enough time. Now get in.” Kai beckons me.
