Gerard's Beauty (22 page)
Authors: Marie Hall
It wouldn’t have helped. She’d thrown it too late.
He had only seconds before the invisibility left him. The moment for death had passed. Using essence—the magick inherent in all his kind—he weaved a net of illusion around himself. He wanted no one to witness the blood staining his back.
He also didn’t want to stick around long enough to turn visible. Fast, as only an immortal could, he picked himself up and ran out the club. Every step was agony, ripping the wound open further, causing him to grit his teeth against the dizzying pain.
Only then did he realize what he’d done. The irrevocable action he’d committed tonight. He’d broken the single most important rule of the reaper. Spare
none. The Morrigan, his Queen, had preached that with threat of torture to any who dared to disobey.
She would want his blood, unless he fixed this first. Frowning with resolve he turned and fled. He must return.
They had to die.
But not tonight.
