Bitten Beauty (The Deadly Beauties Live On 3)

My sister… I’ll never see her again.

Turning away, I ignore Silan and I start running toward the nearest town. I may wander around for eternity on my own, or live until someone kills me, but I won’t be a part of a coven.

I won’t be the monster.

As soon as we walk into the house, Roslyn is rushing by us in wolf form, running so fast that I barely see anything but a white blur of fur.

Ella rushes out with Kimber and Karma on her heels, and all three girls leap over the deck railing, chasing Roslyn.

“The fuck?” Dice asks, watching as they run.

Without even knowing what the hell is going on, I dematerialize, thankful no one is on the lake beach to witness it. I land behind Ella, and try to stop her, but she keeps running, brushing me off as she barrels through the forest like she’s on a mission. She’s pale and her eyes are wide with terror, and Roslyn is running so damn fast that we keep having to dematerialize in spurts to gain ground faster.

“The hell is going on?!” I yell as Roslyn bursts out of the woods and runs straight into Pine Shore traffic.

Like that won’t arouse some fucking suspicion. A damn white wolf loose in the streets while we chase.

Horns blare, tires screech, and screams arise, but Roslyn leaps over two cars and sails in the air before pounding the other side of the street, still running as fast as her wolf legs will allow.

Ella jumps and slides over the hood of a car before jumping a fence and staying on Roslyn’s ass.

Fuck!

I jump over a group of teens that are hanging out, and they all gasp as I clear their heads, pounding the ground with a thud, before continuing the fucking ridiculous pace. This is too damn public!

“What the hell, Ella?” I snap, catching back up with her.

Karma appears in front of her, and more screams arise from behind us, letting us know that shit was just seen, but it’s like no one gives a damn about exposing us all of the sudden.

Even cautious Kimber suddenly leaps out of a portal, landing right beside Roslyn as the wolf continues to lead the unknown charge.

“He took her!” Kimber yells over her shoulder, running harder to keep Roslyn’s ungodly pace.

My brow furrows in confusion, but then all the blood in my veins turns frigid, feeling like hot ice coursing through me, freezing me and burning me at the same damn time.

Leah… Slade.

Motherfucker!

Something inside me snaps, and a black fog closes down around me. Nothing and no one matters in that instant. No one other than her.

Someone will fucking die tonight.

Death and mayhem swarm my thoughts, taking over, and everything I’ve been holding back bursts through the dam with a vengeance I don’t even want to control.

Chapter 22

ELLA

A feral roar escapes Zee, and I silently curse Kimber for fucking telling him what’s going on. The sky crackles and thunders, and nausea sweeps over me as Roslyn continues her hellacious pace.

Zee has been battling a dark war I can relate to, and now…

The wind stirs violently around us, and a that feral roar sounds out once again. Roslyn sniffs the air, turning toward me, but the look in her eyes turns to terror as we both turn to see Zee’s eyes…

Solid black eyes meet mine, and a shiver runs down my spine as Zee moves his eyes toward the sky. Lightning crashes, thunder barks, and the wind swirls like a bad omen. The ground around him starts turning to Ash, and I glance over just as Gage appears and grabs Kimber around the waist, pushing her behind him.

“What happened?” Gage yells, trying to make his voice reach us over the massive storm.
