I hung there, unable to take my eyes off her, until Melody strode forward and shoved that rod against her belly.
“Make one more move and I’ll shove four hundred volts through this belly of yours and right into your baby.”
Vivienne froze instantly, then turned her head. Wild strands of her hair settled across her eyes. Still, she saw my sister clearly.
“Now, we don’t want you to go into labor, now do we? Not until we have everything prepared.
I’d never seen a shade more sickening than gray, but the woman turned it now.
Sallow and terrified, her eyes widened instantly. “What do you mean, prepared?”
“Hale and I want everything ready for when we have our babies.”
Vivienne stumbled backwards, her fingers splayed wide over her stomach. “No.” She whimpered and shook her head. “I won’t let that happen.”
“Honey, you won’t be around to stop it, now will you?”
Evil.
That’s what my sister was.
Pure. Fucking. Evil.
There was no fight in Vivienne anymore. There was nothing but terror as the guard strode forward and grabbed her arm once more.
“If you take them, you’d better kill me.” She finally whispered, staring into Melody’s eyes. “Because I won’t stop, and neither will those I love. I won’t stop until I burn your world to the ground. You have no idea who you’re dealing with…but you will soon.” The guard jerked her forward. “You will soon.”
“Take her along the tunnel to the car. Don’t stop for anything, do you hear me? Not until you get to Hale.”
Vivienne’s eyes shimmered with tears. She shook her head, her gaze moving to me.
“No.” I pulled on the cuffs, my arms burning and spent. Still, I had to try. “Don’t you fucking dare?—”
The sonofabitch who liked to torture grabbed the rod from my sister and strode forward.
I tensed my body, throwing myself toward the guard as he dragged Vivienne from the room. “No NOOO!”
Bang!
The door slammed shut. They were gone, leaving a gaping hole of desperation behind. “DON’T YOU FUCKING TOUCH HER…DO YOU HEAR ME! DON’T YOU TOUCH HERRRR!” My sister stepped closer and reached up, gently brushing her fingers along my jaw. I jerked away from her touch. “Get the fuck away from me. You’re no sister of mine.”
Rage found me as I met her gaze.
Excitement sparkled in her eyes.
She was right.
In a single blow, she’d killed any kind of need I had to protect her.
Now I just wanted her dead.
And Hale along with her.
“Farewell, brother. It was nice knowing you, however brief it was.”
Then she stepped away, nodding to my tormentor as she turned and headed for the door.
The hinges squealed before it closed again with a thud.
