Mother May I (Knight Games Book 4) - Plot & Excerpts
I caught the witch before she hit the floor. Based on the position of the arrow, I prayed it had missed her heart, but her shallow breaths indicated it was implanted in her lung. Metal pinged against metal as Polina shielded us from arrows with a stretch of iron she must have created from the country decor. “This isn’t going to hold,” she yelled. With a puff of breath, I blew the door closed. The windows shattered, and we both hit the floor on either side of Elana. “The arrow is poisoned with goblin blood. This could kill her, Grateful!” Polina yelled. “Hold them back!” I said. “I’m a nurse.” She gave me a strange look, obviously questioning the relevance of my announcement, but did as I requested. Every piece of metal in the room melted and oozed into place to seal off the windows. The attack didn’t ebb. Pings of metal on metal were joined by chopping at the walls and pounding on the doors. There were even footsteps on the roof, although I hoped the blazing fire in the hearth would keep those intruders at bay.
