Daughters of Thunder - Evangheline C Farcas (find a book to read .TXT) 📗

no good, for God had suddenly become deaf. He should have died that night too, but his hate-that venomous adrenaline-had pumped through him. It was good though because at least, at the very least the murderers had become nothing more then a pile of pathetic ashes-all but the one who had taken Shulamit. All but that one had suffered hell's fury, his fury.


The heavy footsteps that had mercilessly crushed leaves beneath their feet was fading, but Accalon still didn't dare to breathe. Why he feared the one who had bestowed upon him this power, this gift, he couldn't fathom, but he felt his desire to reach the summit of this mountain intensify. If there was any hope left, it was there-that is if what he was searching for was still there.

Radiana gazed outside the window. This cabin had been carefully selected, she could tell. Tall trees surrounded it, effectively shielding them from that dreadful sun.


"He's been gone a long time now."


Radiana just nodded continuing to gaze at the trees in wonder, they seemed so unaffected by the light. In fact, they absorbed it and fed on the sun's rays. Instantly she was envious of them, which was such a ridiculous notion that she giggled aloud.


Her sister looked at her with raised eyebrows, but persisted with her chattering.


"What do you think of Lucian?" Rachel met her sister's eyes with a touch of wonder and even envy at the violet hues that stormed Radiana's eyes at the moment.


Silence was her only answer, as she resumed her gazing.


"Well? Answer me! What do you thing?"


"He's right, I think. He is also telling the truth. And I think I hate father for it, you know he never told me?" her tone was seething with barely restrained rage.


Rachel impatiently tapped the window, seemingly unaware of her sister's dangerous mood. "Well, he never told me either. It just makes me wonder what else he hasn't bothered to mention to us."


Radiana met her sister's eyes, resenting her for the hundredth time since Lucian had dropped his morsel of truth. She had so much and the little fool didn't even see it, while she had nothing, not even what she thought she'd had. Rachel had a father and a mother and the simple truth was Radian did not. It had been a sobering blow, finalizing her resolve to not ever be found.


"You know, sister, he will pay. I'm with Lucian on that."


Rachel's eyes widened as the words sunk in. The power was nice, but the look in her sister's eyes was like that of a calculating conniving snake, waiting to strike. It left her breathless. Somewhere within Rachel there was a voice sounding a sort of alarm, but an alarm that was still too soft to take heed of its warning.


"Okay, but I don't like that we need Accalon for that."


Radiana whirled around, "Well, sister, there's a lot I don't like either, so suck it up!"


Rachel gasped.
