[ Raven's Coven … continued ]
The silence was almost unbearable.
Only the sound of Selene's own heart beat filled the space, each thud hammering against her ribs as though it wanted out.
The Most High moved.
Slowly.
Deliberately.
Her steps were silent, but the weight of her presence brushed against Selene's skin like cold fingers.
As if she circled her prey.
Selene stayed on the ground, her palms pressed into the stone, trembling, unable to rise. Her eyes followed that shadowed figure, which was now very prominent.
Selene's eyes flickered with terror and something else…a hint of recognition she refused to give voice to.
Her lashes quivered. Her mouth parted. But no words came.
The Most High noticed.
Oh, she noticed so damn well…and definitely found it amusing.
A low chuckle spilled from her throat, rich, curling into the air like smoke.
"Find something you know?Want to say something darling???!!"
