A protest died strangled in her throat when Isaac threw the hunter damn near across the room. Trying to keep up with him meant she had no breath for the question that had suddenly become the most important one to have answered. His legs were so much longer, and whatever he was, it gave him incredible stamina and speed. It felt like her shoulder was being wrenched out of the socket. Finally she resorted to the trick that had saved her in high school more than once: she set her feet,\u00a0reached<\/em>, and grounded\u00a0hard<\/em>, sinking her dead weight to the earth.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Isaac buckled and came a hair closer than he would\u2019ve liked to dislocating her shoulder. His fingers unfurled at the last second and he turned on the spot, breathing hard and burning where the mountain ash had touched his skin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Because that\u2019s fine by me. I can\u00a0go<\/em>, and you can take that hunter and your ass elsewhere if you don\u2019t want my help. Good fucking riddance.\u201d<\/small><\/p>\n
