Willow’s in trouble!
“Why? What’s going on?”Viktor questioned in haste.
I’m not sure! I’m too far away for a visual! She was with the others on the dotted map and now she’s soaring forward and they’re left behind. It’s like she’s in another vehicle. I’ll be there in moments. Milo! Prepare to teleport you and the others.
“Jayce, he said he needs magic! You won’t be able to do anything,”Viktor stressed.
Elemental magic counts, right?
“Yes,”Milo quickly answered.“But you don’t have-”
Feel the warmth of a Devil’s tainted flames, Milo.
My mental demand cut him off as I accelerated and sped down the emergency lane. I noticed the waving officers that were attempting to signal me to stop, but it only motivated me to move even faster.
My Rebel Flower needs me.
“You better reel me back in if I get troublesome, partner,” I whispered outloud.
“I’ve got you,”my wolf assured me, and I took a deep breath and began to hold it. The roaring of the engine and the vibration of the bike began to get through to my heightened senses, which began to further rise in haste at my lack of oxygen.
My heartbeat accelerated, triggering the hints of fear that my life was threatened. That began to trigger the darker memories, the flickering images of my past that haunted me in my nightmares.
The chanting, the cheering, the scent of blood and burning flesh. The volcanic anger, the tsunami of dismay, sadness…so much fucking sadness.
I felt the beginning of flames, but it wasn’t coming fast enough to me. There was no time to enjoy the build-up of the fury. I needed it to spike like an erupting volcano, not like a slow build from a hand job.
“STOP! STO-AH!” The police offer that tried to stop me was pulled back by a man wearing a white apron. I caught a glimpse of him as I passed, the world slowing for a moment as our eyes locked. He snapped his fingers at that exact moment.
I got a second glimpse of the card that appeared between his fingertips - the metallic gold card that shifted to black that I knew was only given out by one person.
Saint’s card…
That confirmed who the man was as I easily took in his Korean features.
Mr. Park.
He was either fulfilling a favor or earning our loyalty, which he was already gaining without having to ask. I’d have to tell Saint afterward, but as my eyes returned to the view ahead, they widened just as my heart hammered to a dramatic stop.
The gunshot sounds were first to echo through the air, but it was watching the speeding car begin to lose control that made everything slow down all over again.
I acknowledged the broken front glass, the driver and front passenger both dead and limp, but it was the sight of the car beginning to swerve to one side that allowed me to see the glimpse of the back. The shattered windows revealed William and a little girl.
William’s entire frame was stiff as he quickly reached out to press the girl against the seat while his other hand reached to grab onto something - preparing for the inevitable.
It was that sight that led to me looking towards where the car was about to crash.
The car would smash right through those metal rails and catapult straight off the bridge and into the heart of the waters below.
At my full speed, I wouldn’t make it on time. And there it was.
The ultimate spark of failure.
For a split second, all I could see was Willow in the ring, sitting on the metal beam in her sexy pink lingerie and her glimmering blue eyes looking down at me with so much lust. Her wild pixie hair, her tatted flesh, her floral scent mixed with hints of her arousal, and those taunting red lips that were swollen from our sweet kisses was so beautiful.
“Jayce.”
I felt the tenderness of her voice, the admiration she carried in those mesmerizing eyes, and the beacon of hope she delivered to my very soul.
