Weird Girls, Book 8

Synopsis: Taran Wird, who commands the power to wield fire and lightning, is an oddity in the supernatural world. But neither Taran nor her unique sisters compare to the bizarre entity known as Destiny. And Taran is assigned to protect her.

Born of two witches, Destiny is revered among the supernatural elite for her acute ability to predict the future. Her biggest prophecy involves Taranā€™s sister, Celia, whom Destiny decreed will bear children strong enough to take on the evil thatā€™s rising. Yet Destiny is not alone in her predictions, or individuality.

When Johnny Fate, a rock star among humans and a male version of Destiny is discovered, his powers and Destinyā€™s clash, triggering the start of Destinyā€™s demise and altering the fate of Celiaā€™s unborn children.

Taran, her werewolf lover Gemini, and their allies must determine if itā€™s Fate who will decide what will become of Celiaā€™s children, or if their lives and the world will perish with Destiny.

OF FLAME AND FATE Excerpt

Copyright Ā© 2017 Cecy Robson

Ā 

Iā€™m shoved into a cold room where a band of bloodsucking fiends tear off my clothes. Their long nails graze my skin as their master watches, his cold gray eyes glinting with malice.

ā€œSon of a bitch,ā€ I say, smacking Edith Anneā€™s hand away when she cops a feel. ā€œThe demonā€™s in my leg, not my tit!ā€

Thereā€™s something you donā€™t say every day, but then thatā€™s why humans are safe in the world and weird gals like me are stuck with demons burrowing under their skin.

ā€œJust making sure,ā€ Edith adds with a wink.

Iā€™m ready to punch her in the face, except Iā€™m too busy cringing at the thing crawling beneath the length of my shin, its spindly insectoid appendages stretching the skin as it curls up and over my knee cap.

ā€œGet it out of me!ā€ I screech, growing nauseous with each numbing tug it creates beneath the underlying tissue.

ā€œWeā€™re trying,ā€ Agnes Concepcion snaps, like Iā€™m somehow inconveniencing her by having an evil being claw its way through me.

Her tiny plaid skirt smacks against my hip as she shoves me into a massive glass and tile shower. Three other vamps, dressed like naughty Catholic schoolgirls (donā€™t get me started) follow us in, bottles of champagne tight in their grips.

ā€œWhat the hell?ā€ I ask, kicking as if I can somehow shake this thing loose, and certain the booze is to celebrate my grisly death.

Bottles of champagne open with a pop, the naughty Catholics pouring the bubbly over my breasts, back, and ass. This isnā€™t real. This is something out of a bad porno and somehow Iā€™m the star.

But as the fluid reaches my thigh the lump with the creepy legs bounces, pulling at the muscle itā€™s crawling over, squirming to the left then right, trying find its way around the torrent of liquid theyā€™re pelting me with.

ā€œDonā€™t let it reach her heart,ā€ Master Vampire Misha Aleksandr orders from the opposite side of the bathroom.

ā€œWhatā€™s it going to do to my heart?ā€ My head whips back and forth when none of the vamps answer. ā€œItā€™s going eat my freaking heart isnā€™t it?ā€

ā€œDonā€™t be ridiculous,ā€ Agnes mutters, adjusting her tiny librarian glasses as she angles the bottle sheā€™s holding.

ā€œOkay . . .ā€ I begin.

ā€œIt needs your heart to nest and lay its eggs,ā€ she explains.

ā€œWhat?ā€

ā€œBut yeah, then the hatchlings will munch on your heart like raw steak,ā€ Edith adds. She reels me around when additional vamps swoop in with cases of wine, drenching my chest with more alcohol.

She seems to be having fun. Iā€™m mostly trying not to hurl and wondering how the hell this happens to me.

Agnes is more focused. She drips the wine just above the demon, forcing it back down my leg. ā€œQuiesco,ā€ she says, her tone as sharp and commanding. ā€œQuiesco.ā€

My body shudders as the demon scurries downward. Its movement doesnā€™t hurt, surprising since I think it has pinchers, but the yanking motion is unnerving, like getting stitches while under anesthesia. My head flops forward and my vision starts to swim.

ā€œI donā€™t feel good,ā€ I mumble.

Agnes slaps me, the sting of the strike causing my eyes to whip open. ā€œDonā€™t fall asleep.ā€ She slaps me again when my eyelids flutter and close. ā€œTaran, the poison the demon is spewing is numbing your skin and making you drowsy, if you succumb to it the alcohol wonā€™t work and the demon will take you.ā€

Again, her palm whips across my face. ā€œStay awake so we can cut this thing out of you.ā€

I slap her back, knocking her glasses askew. ā€œIā€™m awake, damn it.ā€

She smirks because she hits harder and maybe because she likes it, too. She returns to my leg when the vamp behind her hands her another bottle of champagne. ā€œQuiesco,ā€ she whispers against my leg, her breath hot against my cooling skin.

My head falls forward as I start to go under. This time, Edith smacks me.

ā€œGod damn it,ā€ I hiss, my right arm quaking and threatening to release my flame.

ā€œI was just taking my turn,ā€ she replies defensively.

Her gaze locks on my arm. She eases away as a spark of blue and white escapes from my fingertips, giving me and my power ample space as the surrounding vamps shower me with alcohol.

ā€œMaster,ā€ Agnes says, ignoring us as she concentrates on my thigh. ā€œItā€™s settling. I need the knife.ā€

ā€œThe wolves are bringing it,ā€ he replies.

ā€œThe wolves?ā€ I ask. Okay. Now Iā€™m wide awake.
