CROSS

I pictured myself after he was done with me. I'd be torn open from the stomach. Intestine hanging out and lazing around when they should be in my body, trying to keep me alive.

My heart would probably be lying around somewhere as he searches my body like a man looking for his room keys in a hotel room.

He approached me, twirling the knife like a pro. As if that should give me any reassurance of his skills. As if that would promise I'd be alive at the end of it.

Loretta hurled curses at him, struggling against her cuffs, but he didn't stop. He had one goal in mind, to rip out some kind of power hiding inside me.

At least Cyrus was safe at home. I just couldn't guarantee I'd ever lay eyes on him again. I'd be breaking my promise to my mom to return in one piece. What would the story be? They wouldn't be able to present my dead body.

That would only mean a ferocious beast was terrorizing the town.

Shit. How long have I been in hell? An hour? Thirty minutes? Both were risky and enou

    CROSSI groaned, slowly coming to. My head banged, but not as much as the rest of my whole body. It felt like I crashed on a hard surface-I gasped awake, eyes snapping open as everything rushed back to me. I jerked up, but the restriction on my wrists held me back. My arms were spread wide, thick black smoke laced around my wrist in bondage, connected to thin air."Shit!" I recognized that smoke anywhere. I couldn't forget it even when I tried.I tried pulling hard at it, drawing my knees up for support as I gave it my hardest shove but it was like pulling against a bull. My strength was useless."Ugh! Stop struggling, you're giving me a headache." the voice groaned out in frustration and I snapped my head to it, eyes widening at the sight of her. "It's futile."Several feet away from me was a woman tied around a large rock with the same thick black smoke holding her down. Her dark hair had fallen over her face, her clothes were muddy and dirty- clearly a sign she'd been here longer.

    CYRUSI slammed his head against the wall and dragged his face on it, hard. Lucian struggled against my grip, but he was no match for my strength. Not when my heart pounded in fear of what he'd done to Cross.Did he torture him? I knew Lucian's habit of tormenting his food. The image of Cross begging for help, screaming my name and pleading for him to stop, waltzed into my mind and my muscles bulged. I was filled with rage. Enough to want to snap my brother in two unequal parts and pick out every bone till all that was left was a sack of skin and blood."Bloody hell! Fucking listen to me!" he screamed.Did he touch him?Oh, dear God! Was that why I felt him the way I did? It was exactly what happened when Mera- I was suddenly grabbed from behind with both my arms, trying to tear me away from Lucian but I held onto his neck with every ounce of strength. His eyes were losing focus, but he grabbed my arm, pushing me away. It was a tug-of-war of strength, neither of us giving in. I wo

    CYRUSMy neck burned like a bitch.I wish that was just it.My arms, thighs, pelvis- fuck! Valkar dropped the axe too many times on me.Now who's piecing me back together?It's dark here. I can't see shit. Probably because my head's still being reattached to my body. Can't easily kill a demon but rip apart their limbs and they are like vampires waiting in their coffins for the stake to be pulled out of their chest.Energy surged through me so violently that I froze and waited for the moment to pass, but with each passing minute, it only got stronger and my body came alive.I recognize this anywhere. Cross.What's he doing? Touching himself again, and so intently this time too. He probably doesn't know what he's doing, but I hope he doesn't stop.I flex my arms, the pain burns through but the energies burst forth like a bolt of electricity. He's feeding me. He has no idea what this is doing.Just one more push and I'm out of this hell-- where am I anyways?I returned to save my mother

    CROSSThere was more to it than they told me. They fucking didn't tell me everything! I never should've trusted them!After Evangeline dropped the shocking words, they vanished. Lilith strolled back into the house, while Seth scolded Lucian for his immature behavior, leaving me to crash out.Did no one hear the path about someone dying or was it just me?"One thing at a time, Damian," Seth sighed when I wouldn't stop asking. He looked at me with distant eyes that spelled he held more secrets that I couldn't handle.The last thing I wanted was to save a man who would only end up dying. No, no, not Cyrus."Let's get him back, find our mom and we can have enough time to talk about everything. In the meantime," his face softened. "Why don't you call your mom? I bet she's worried but she'd like to know you're safe and that she helped."It was just his way of avoiding the conversation but I knew I had to do it. I stormed back into the room to get my phone. There was a message from Sophia bu

    CROSSThey stared and stared until I was sure they were trying to drill a hole into my face. Lucian, Seth and Lilith gathered around in the bedroom, while I munched down on dinner mom packed."Can you all stop staring at me? It's really hard to swallow.""You don't understand. Twenty minutes. No one's ever used just twenty minutes," Seth explained."Damn. You're on a fast walk to awakening. Keep this up and you'll- ow!" Lucian glared at Lilith after the loud smack and she glared right back."Zip it." she growled.What was he going to say?"How many days passed in there?" Seth asked, folding his arms."About twenty four hours… or less." I tried to run the math."That's a rare case. Evangeline must've had something to do with that." said Seth."She messed with time." Lucian added."Is that bad?" I wondered, looking up at the two who now wore a deep concerning frown. I'd take that from Seth, but seeing Lucian all serious was making my stomach ache.I ditched the food and pushed it aside,
