Girl, Immortal (Girl, Vampire Book 3) Page 16

by Graceley Knox

I stand before a man. Everything about him is in shadow except the piercing blue of his eyes. He turns away, and a door slams shut in my face, an enormous K engraved on it.

  “Aura! Aura!”

  I open my eyes and see Reina and Breanne leaning over me. I’m flat on my back, covered in layers of sweat. “What the fuck?” I say as I sit up. My head spins from moving too quickly.

  “What the fuck is right.” Reina turns from me to Mama Lisette who’s crouched on her hands and knees several feet away. “What the hell did you do to her?”

  “What happened?” I ask.

  “You had a seizure or something. It’s been almost ten-freakin’-minutes, and nobody here would let me call for help.”

  Reina’s pissed. Breanne watches us both, and Mama Lisette stares at me like I’m a two-headed unicorn. At that moment, I realize she’s also covered in sweat and shaking. Did she see all of that? Did she feel it?

  “I can’t help you,” Mama Lisette says as she climbs to her feet. “You need to go.”

  With Reina’s help, I stand. “What just happened to me? Why do you look so scared?”

  She shakes her head and moves toward the kitchen, but I follow. I grab her arm. She tries to tug herself free, but my grip is too strong.

  It’s never been this strong.

  We both look down at my hand, and after a second, I release her. “You said you could help.”

  “I never said that I could. I only asked who needed help and what happened.”

  “Then why did you let us in?”

  She shakes her head again, and I hear Reina and Breanne come in behind me.

  “I can’t help unless—”

  “Unless what?” Reina snaps. “Unless we give you another five hundred dollars? Is that what this is? A shakedown?”

  Mama Lisette slams her fits onto the counter. “Unless the vampire is still alive!” Her hand points to me as if in accusation. “But your sire is dead. Of that much, I am certain. There’s no way to stop the change now.”

  “Holy fuck.” Reina practically falls into a chair beside her. “This is real?”

  A million questions rush my mind, but I can’t formulate words. The sight of all that blood is doing something to me. My skin itches and aches at the same time, and a ravenous hunger, one I’ve tried to bury deep, has surged to the forefront of my thoughts.

  “You’re at the end of this, Aurora. I’m surprised you haven’t already succumbed.”

  Reina looks from me to Mama Lisette before she speaks. “How long does she have?”

  Mama shrugs. “Hours. Minutes? I’ve never seen someone go as long as she has without turning.” She nudges her head toward me. “You’re running on empty, Aurora. It will only take one moment.” She snaps her fingers. “Then your control will disappear.”

  “Can’t you give her something, to help?” Reina asks. “Cast a protection spell on her mind? Or something? Anything!”

  Reina’s desperation shocks me out of my thoughts.

  Mama Lisette shakes her head, “This is different.”

  “Why?” I ask.

  “You know why.”

  “No, I don’t.”

  “You saw it too, Aurora. You felt it.”

  Reina grabs my bicep. “Saw what, Aura?”

  “This kind of magic, this kind of power, it’s connected to something dark. Something ancient.” Mama steps toward me and places her hands on my shoulders. “The darkness is coming for you, Aurora. You can’t outrun it. You can’t hide from it. And you can’t defeat it.”

  “What are you saying?” Reina asks.

  Mama doesn’t move her eyes from mine. “I’m saying Aurora is marked by death—and her time has run out.”

  About the Authors

  USA Today bestselling authors, Graceley Knox and D.D. Miers may be long-lost sisters, but their moms continue to deny it. They are most definitely the co-writers of the Kresova Vampire Harem series, as well as a multitude of other upcoming projects they can't wait to share with readers.

  Together they tend to share the same brain, finish each other's thoughts, laugh way too hard at inappropriate comments, drink enough coffee to qualify for an intervention, and talk about their fur babies. When they're not chatting, which is always, they can be found all over social media hanging out with their author friends and readers!
