The Monsters In Your Neighborhood - Plot & Excerpts
Alec stood in the street, holding his hand out for a cab, as Natalie huddled on the sidewalk, feeling the cold winter wind all the way into her very old bones. She watched him as a cab finally stopped. He leaned in the window and said something to the driver, then motioned for her to come on. She felt numb as she did, walking over, getting in, putting her seat belt on. (Yeah, so she was the only one in New York who did it—what of it?) They were all such human actions, but now she was being asked to do something so utterly inhuman. So utterly monstrous. But as she looked at Alec, who was getting in beside her and wrapping an arm around her shoulders as the cab pulled away into the night, there was a tiny thought that said the deal was worth it. That somehow she could find a way to justify pushing Kai and Rehu over a cliff if she could save Alec instead. There had to be a way to justify it . . . “What are we going to do?”
