you back, and you still beat him up? You really are a sick twisted freak like I heard.”
“Oh shut up, he won’t die. He deserved what I gave him anyway, for jacking up my life for the past year.” He shoved his hands in his pockets and walked over to the front of the jeep.
“He looks bad, I’ m not even sure he will make it back to the coven house alive.” I prayed Kyle was wrong as I tried to get a better look at Will as I peeked in-between the high grass.
“If he dies, Leo will kills us and not even ask any questions. I have seen him do it before, and it’s bad.” Todd seemed even more un nerved now, as he checked Will’s pulse. I desperately wanted to snatch Will away from them and get him back to Doc and Pratt.
“Hell he’s still breathing; he won’t die any time soon anyway.” Todd got up and looked around.
“You idiot if you had just stuck to the plan we wouldn’t be worrying about him dying right now. It’s just like in the woods a few weeks ago; you just had to bite that chic… Corrine. Leo told you that you had better follow his rules this time.” Todd was silent, as he stood there listening.
I had enough of it all by now. Kyle was whining about their pending deaths thanks to Leo. Todd was just acting stupid and Will needed to get medical attention as soon as possible. I slowly moved out of my hiding spot. I crept back around the side of the jeep, out of the site of either moron.
I pulled my hood back, and pushed the strands of wet hair out of my eyes. This was a one shot deal, if I messed this up Will and I could both end up dead. I couldn’t wait for Roth anymore. Something must have gone wrong, causing him to be delayed. I knew he wouldn’t leave me here to face Todd alone unless something bad happened.
I inched my way along the side of the jeep, trying not to slip in the mud. I stepped out carefully, making sure I wasn’t within striking range of either one of them.
“You’ve got to kidding me!” Todd gasped in shock. “Your suppose to be dead. I hit you hard enough to kill you.”
“Didn’t we go over all that already Todd? I’m not dead you’re not dead so let’s get over that already ok?”
I fixed my eyes on him, trying to look un afraid and in control. I knew I couldn’t put him in a trance but I could try. “Back away from William now.” I hissed.
Kyle backed up slightly, not too sure about what I was going to do next. Todd seemed nervous as he looked behind him several times, as we stood there. I think he expected to see the rest of my coven coming up behind him. I wished that was the case, as I stood there facing my worst enemy alone.
“Here to save pretty boy eh? Kind of backward isn’t it. I think it’s the other way around most of the time.”
“This is not the eighteen hundreds Todd. Girls don’t have to always be the ones getting saved.” I kept my hand in my coat pocket on the knife.
I had found it in Roth’s glove box, so I brought it just in case I needed it. I looked over for a minute at William, he was motionless. Todd was watching me. I could feel his dirty eyes on me. I looked up at him and saw the same evil smile he wore the night of the Frat party nearly a year ago.
“Ready to play Corrine?” He shook his head. “You never learn do you? You will never beat me. It’s simply not possible.”
“Really why is that Todd?” I stalled for time hoping Roth would show up.
“You want to discuss this right now?” He laughed waving his hand around, to emphasize we were in the middle of a swamp.
“Why not? No time like the present is there.” I tried to act confident, if they knew I was scared they might attack me.
“She’s stalling Todd; you are such an idiot anyone could tell that. She knows she can’t take us on alone, she’s a half blood after all.” I really hated Kyle now. Todd would have gone on talking to me for a while if he hadn’t butted in. He was still stupid.
