Never Jessa Hastings Book 2 소설 & 이야기

They turned tail, disappearing into the dark woods with high-pitched yelps. “Let them run,” I growled through the link, shifting back to my human form. I stood there, half naked and covered in blood, the adrenaline making my vision vibrate. “They’ll lead the rest of the pack away if we’re lucky.” “We need to go,” Jax said, wiping his blade on his thigh. “The scent of this blood hunt more enemies.” I turned back to Jessica. She was awake now, sitting up against the rock, her eyes wide with a mixture of terror and something else amaze. She had watched us kill the second time. She had seen the monsters we were.

She took back the credit card and placed it in her pocket before climbing out of the taxi. Her hand fiddling with her necklace, she walked toward the address Evan had given her. Dragging open the sliding door of the abandoned looking warehouse, Jessa tried to calm her racing heartbeat, the need to run almost overwhelming. But she forced herself to piece together some courage and stepped further into the building. A lone light flicked on and she was face to face with one man she had hoped to never see again. “Hello, Jacinta.” “Where is Holly?” she asked, trying to keep the tremors from her voice.

I place my hand on the necklace that he had given me , feeling my heart ache from the distance between me and my other life. The only person I have left from my past life is Andrew. Come to think of it , I have not seen Andrew ever since I have come here. A sudden dread falls upon me – I have been so worried and distracted by my misfortune that I have totally forgot about him and how he is coping. I make a mental note , to ask Alexander to see Andrew when he gets back – that is how ever , if he does not kill me for my behaviour. I shiver feeling a sudden coldness which is accompanied by an overpowering sense of evilness enters the room. I rub my arms , trying to warm my self , though the s

“You’re safe. Just breathe.” The spinning slowed, just a little. I focused on Kael’s golden eyes as I grounded myself. There was nothing I could do. “ You can take her today.” Jessa said interfering. “Just make sure what we agreed on…” I could see the greed in her eyes. Jessa wasn’t worried about me, she was worried about the deal, about what she’d get in return. My hands trembled at my sides, nails digging into my palms. I wasn’t family to her. I was currency.

Their expression was calm but tinged with urgency. “You’ve come far,” the stranger said, their voice layered with echoes that reverberated through the very fabric of the room. “But your journey is far from over.” “I’m tired of riddles,” Jessica shot back, her voice rising slightly. “Tell me what I need to do.” The stranger tilted their head slightly, as though considering the question. “Do? There’s nothing left to do. Only to decide.” Before she could respond, the books began to fall from the shelves, each landing open at her feet. Pages flipped rapidly, revealing fragments of lives lived and lost, choices made and undone. Some showed moments of triumph; others depicted failures so profound

A Vampire darted towards me in his last desperate attack—but before I could move, a flash of black hair and claws intercepted him. It was Jessica. Her hands were steady despite the chaos, grasping the Vampire by the throat. For a moment, I saw fear flicker in his crimson eyes, and I couldn't tell why. He didn't fight back and didn't try to retaliate. Jessica, on the other hand, didn’t hesitate. With a swift, brutal motion, she drove a silver dagger straight into his heart. His body went rigid as a strangled gasp escaped his lips before he crumpled to the floor—lifeless.

Her shoulders stiffened just enough to say she was feeling something—someone—dark nearby. She glanced down the hallway behind us, eyes narrowing. “You okay?” I asked. Her voice dropped to a whisper. “Jessica was here. A minute ago.” And just like that, my heart kicked into overdrive. Something was happening. A fracture is forming in the foundation. Jessica might be jealous. She might hate my presence here. Maybe she wanted me gone so she could stand beside Naja—take the place she believed should’ve been hers. Alpha female. Chosen. Deserving.

Regaining my composure, I head toward the table where our drinks sit, the opposite direction Theo walked. Along the way, I pass the face of a demon I wasn’t expecting to see: Nia, Hazel’s cousin and the inspiration behind one of Macbeth’s witches. “Crash any cars lately?” She sneers, the pettiness oozing like a deadly venom, “or are you too busy trying to steal other people’s mates?” “Why? Are yours available?” I remark with a serious look, enjoying her scoff of derision. “I can take both if you’d like,” I comment nonchalantly, with a glance at the mate mark on her neck.
