Tasting Darkness

Chapter 161

Read Taming Darkness By Jessica Hall Book 3 Chapter 36 – The briefcase slipped from her hands, sc*ttering paperwork everywhere when I am hit from the side, my magic dropping as one of her men attacked me. I hit the ground hard. From my peripheral, I see my mother trying to scavenge the papers. My wings open when the Fae man blasted me with his fire magic, my wings wrapped around my body protectively, shielding me.

The heat made me scream, and I forced power into them turning my wings to steel. They glowed, turning a rusty red, from the rapid heat. Turning my head, I spot my mother rush out the door and clench my teeth as her foot soldier pins me with his fire.

Her eyes flashed, and my mates, look in her direction. “You had your chance,” she spits at I snarl at her and shook my head, stepping into the chaos when I noticed Kalen behind her and in the next moment, so does she.

She smirked, and her fingers come alive with magic. “It started with you, Lidia, and it will end with you.” I warn her. “If I go, I am taking them with me,” she growled and turned toward Kalen. Darius screamed, and my heart stuttered as she lifts her hand, glowing with her powers, a cruel smirk on her lips.
