I blinked to find Shelly screaming, tears flowing down her face, scrambling to grab the dagger from Abby’s chest. I breathed a sigh of relief as I grabbed the cup again. I jumped to her side and grabbed her face. “What the fuck are you doing, you stupid fucking bitch? You killed our pup. My baby.” She grabbed a chunk of hair and ripped it from my head, but I was focused on her tears. I needed exactly five tears.
Her nails found purchase on my face, and I felt the blood trickle from my face as her nails sliced through. I had to jerk back as one claw sliced too close to my eye. But once the five tears dropped into the cup, I pulled away from her grip. I didn’t want to hurt her any more than I already had.
I walked to Rick, who was still screaming. Still crying. Toya and my mom had his arms so he couldn’t cut into me like his mate. I grabbed his face, and collected his five tears as he screamed at me. “I hate you. I should have let Vince kill you.” His words rolled off my back. But his next insult landed. “You are nothing like your father. You are the rot in the world, and eventually everyone will see it. That’s why the goddess never gave you a good mate. You deserved Brandon. You deserve each other. That’s why the goddess took your pup. You would only ruin it.”
I kissed his brow . “You might be right.” I whispered, as I turned back to Abby.
“Leave her alone.” Shelly screamed as I walked back to the burning bowl next to Abby. I tipped some of the burning liquid into the cup. Then I grabbed Abby by her shoulders and tipped some of the liquid into her mouth. “DON’T TOUCH MY DAUGHTER!” Shelly fought harder, but Wendy just tightened her grip.
I laid her back on the table, and then I ripped the dagger from her chest. I stood over her and poured the rest of the burning liquid into the jagged wound in her chest. Rick screamed. “Leave her alone!” His scream had my hand trembling. But I grabbed the bowl and upended it all over her. Catching Abby on fire. I fed the flame until it was a few inches high.
“ NO !” Shelly lunged. But Wendy caught her in time. “ Please , no.” She crumpled to her knees next to her mate.
The hatred I saw in both of their eyes as they wrapped their arms around each other dried my mouth. “They will understand.” My grandmother whispered behind me . “Finish it.”
I raised my hands over Abby as I pushed more power into her. “Lorna ca shad une ben sou sla clen da shure sav itsha dom. ” I watched as the wound in her chest slowly closed. The brand that Vince burned into her skin flaked off. I grabbed the dagger once more from the table and I waited. The fire burned for a few minutes as the couple on the ground watched in horror as their child was burned away.
I started to worry . I looked back at my grandmother, but she was gone. Did I mess this up? My fingers tightened on the dagger and I closed my eyes , bowing my head. “ Goddess , hear me . Deliver this child from the fire . Save her from her fate that was thrust upon her unwilling soul . Help guide me to cut the thread that ties her to this place and allow me to set her free . ”
Rick fought to stand , he’s breathing coming in quick gasps. “ I’ll kill you . ” He started to fight against Toya’s and my mom’s hold. But I was still fully focused on the flames above Abby’s body. “ Let me go . ” He screamed. Shelly wrapped her arm around Toya’s leg and pulled . Giving Rick enough of a distraction to break free . He lept over the table and tried to grab me, but I snapped a shield between him and the table. “Let go of my baby ! ” He screamed , slamming his hands against the invisible barrier. But I couldn’t let my attention spilt for even a second. I needed to see the cord. Rick threw himself against the magic . “As soon as this is down , you’re dead . Do you hear me?” He snarled, and I could see he was lost in his anger. “ YOU ARE DEAD!”
: refused to look at him as he snarled next to me , and I am thankful I stayed focus on Abby . I snapped my hand out as soon as I saw the thin black cord slicing through it. Vince’s scream bounced around the cabin , causing everyone to cover their ears. All but me as I stayed focused on Abby. I felt the blood trickle from my ear to join the trail of blood off of my face .
“ I’ll kill you ! ” Shelly and Rick screamed again. Rick charged against the shield , and this time , I allowed him through . His hand wrapped around my throat and he leaned in. “ I hope your soul is turned away by the goddess . ” Then he squeezed .
“ Daddy, let her go. ”
