Return (Coming Home #1) (19 page)

Hurt.

Ow.

Stop.

No.

All the words I want to say can’t come out as the fingers cover my lips. I can’t open my mouth enough to bite. I’m off balance in midair as I
speed through the dark lot toward a corner, around a giant pillar. My throat is dry and even if I could open my mouth, I don’t think I could scream.

A man’s breath pours into my ear, the sound of exertion clear.

No. I am
not
being abducted. This is
not
happening.

Red fury fills everything. Carrie disappears, replaced instead by my own blood, billowing and ballooning with greatness and survival.
I no longer have arms and legs, vocal cords and hair. I am just red, rising blood and I need to push so hard I can be released.

Unleashed.

“See how easy it is?” the man says in my ear. “You really don’t understand what you’re dealing with here, Carrie.”

I know that voice.

Oh, God.
