Drowning In The Dark: #4 The Veil Series - Plot & Excerpts
As soon as we’d pulled off the main road, I’d felt the crawl of demon stares. Within a few hundred yards, they’d started to spill from the trees. Now, as we rolled forward at a snail’s pace, the demons were everywhere: in the trees, lining the driveway, crouched by the earthen banks. They watched with multicolored eyes. Lessers, mostly, but some higher demons, especially the closer we got to Akil’s house. Wings fluttered, flapped, and shivered. Claws glinted, and teeth chittered. Elements swirled, charging the air. The hairs on the back of my neck rose. “Stop. Let me out.” Stefan climbed from the car and strode ahead. Speared by headlights, the demons parted before him, hunkered low, submissive, even as they hissed and spat in his direction. With a clear path behind Stefan, I picked up the pace in the car, muttering to myself, “This is the creepiest thing I’ve ever seen.” Blackstone shone ahead.
