The firelight in the cave sputters and cracks. Here Mia had been sleeping before a sound within the wilds had woken here. She had been meaning to move on, quietly leave the fire and slip into the night, hopefully leaving her pursuer confused by the bright flames. But her demon had other plans.
Yingzi watches from the shadows as Clay approaches the camp. This cowboy is persistent. Doesn’t he remember what happened last time he caught up with them? It would seem the demon needs to remind him, although it isn’t all that fun when they don’t fight back.
“Stubborn is a good word for you, big guy.” Its voice echoes through the dark, shadows seem to pulse as it speaks. “Mia begs you to turn around, to run and never look back but we both know that’s not gonna happen. Wanna see how close to death I can get you?”
