Burn Like Fire (20 page)
The only thing that ran through Gabe’s mind was Caroline; the way her fingers stroked the piano keys, the sweet fragrance of her pear-scented shampoo, and the way her smile extended to those sky blue eyes.
Gabe had lost her once without a fight. He should have done something back then; he shouldn’t have let her go so easily.
This time was going to be different, though. This time, he was going to fight with all the strength in his body.
Gabe had to make it out alive. He had to do it for Caroline.
Chapter 40
The pages of Hunter family book flew open and a light radiated from its pages, casting a glow on the ceiling.
As Mary-Kate was tossed out of the book and onto the hardwood floor, she glanced around and smiled.
Home, sweet home.
Well, sort of. Mary-Kate actually wasn’t sure where she was. It wasn’t her own home, but it didn’t matter. The important thing was that she was no longer in the past.
Pulling herself up off the floor, Mary-Kate brushed off her knees. Now that she was back, she had a mission to accomplish; she had to find out where Lexi was.
There was no way in Hell Mary-Kate was going to allow her half-sister—if she could even call that bitch her half-sister—walk all over her the way she had done in the past.
No, Mary-Kate wasn’t going to allow that. Not after everything that had gone on since Lexi and Dan had found their way out of the 1800s, leaving her behind.
Mary-Kate had been captured by a group of vampire men who had been fascinated by the scent of her blood. They wanted to drink from her, but she hadn’t given them the opportunity. She’d killed them all, slicing each of their throats, one by one, imagining that it was Lexi who she was killing.
Well, all in good time, she reminded herself. Once Mary-Kate found Lexi, she wasn’t going to let her live to see another day.
No, Lexi Hunter was going to be gone before she knew it.
Mary-Kate was going to get revenge, once and for all.
