Tasting Darkness

Chapter 137

Read Taming Darkness By Jessica Hall Book 3 Chapter 12 – Darius POV

As the words left his lips, he lunged at me with one arm held up like a boxer and the other he jabbed at my forehead. Instead of merely dodging, I stepped in and twisted beside the attack before bringing my leg up and kicking Terry straight in his jaw.

The impact was so strong his teeth clashed together, and I had no doubt he lost more than a few as a result.

I didn’t have to wonder for long, as the proof was right before my eyes the next moment. One of his green splintered teeth dropped to the ground, and he held up a hand to his lips to stop the blood from dripping. “Lucky. Shot.” He sneered.

I barely held back the urge to roll my eyes at his statement and rage. Had he forgotten that I am a Wraith? That name doesn’t instill fear for no reason.

For all his bulk, Terry wasn’t very good at actual fighting. At best, he made me feel more like I was thrown into a ring with a child. Or a child who couldn’t swim and was chucked in the deep end of a pool for the flailing he did.

Terry got back to his senses and tried to strike at me again, this time a body blow with his other fist still protecting his face.

I stepped in quick, swaying to the side to avoid the blow, and struck two times in quick succession at his chest. The grunts that left him each time reminded me more of pained cries from an animal than anything remotely close to human beings. No wonder I didn’t feel any pity for this shithead.

Besides, god-damn it, for all his talk, I half expected a challenge. I was growing bored already. Did this guy even suspect that I could predict every move he was about to take? Every next damn attempt to attack me?

So much for taking me apart, someone clearly was very bad at keeping his promises.
