Shot in the dark
Declan’s iron grip on me went a little more lax as he tucked the phone back into the pocket of his black jeans. It was enough to let me sink my teeth into his arm. He pushed me back so hard I whacked my head against the wall and fell to the ground. I’d managed to draw blood on his forearm, which was already riddled with other scars.
I scrambled up to my feet, adrenaline coursing through my body. I was ready to do whatever I had to in order to fight for my life, but another curtain of agony descended over me.
“What’s happening to me?” I managed to say through clenched teeth. “What the hell was in that syringe?”
He grabbed me by the front of my sweater and brought me very close to his scarred face. “Poison. ”
“Oh my God. What kind of poison?”
“The kind that will kill you,” he said simply. “Which is why you have to come with me. ”
I shook my head erratically. “I have to get to a hospital. ”
“No. ” He grabbed me tighter. “Death now or death later. That’s your only choice. ”
It was a choice I didn’t want to make. It was one I wouldn’t have to make.
More pain erupted inside of me and the world went totally and completely black.PRAISE FOR THE PARANORMAL ROMANCES OF MICHELLE ROWEN
