Chapter 35

"Just say no." I gripped the chair harder and blasted the demon back against the wall with mega-current shot from my eyes.

Oh my God, I had a literal death glare! It was official: I was a badass.

Blue Hair flicked the fingers of her free hand at me, prismatic drops of her evil sweat flying through the air to land on me like a gentle spring rain.

Blue Hair rose up, the man clutching at her leg, his mouth working uselessly, sucking nothing. Fury blazed in her eyes as she snatched her victim up in her arms and blurred past us into the night.

Rohan pulled me into the alley after her but she was gone. I sucked in a head-clearing breath.
