KILLERS CAN LOVE TOO - Mary Claire Garcia (good books to read for women .TXT) 📗

the connections Reapers have with each other. He did not know that the path she has made was getting closer and closer to his lair. This would be the last day she can use her power. The electricity shocks every time she used her power were always life threatening. They were draining her blood to make more of her kind and were only keeping her alive with drugs. She fought a wave of sleep that was trying to overwhelm her in vain. She had never slept ever since she had been captured. She knew that if she slept there was a huge chance she wouldn’t be able to wake up again. She gathered all her power. She awakened her level 999 virus with her last ounce of strength. She summoned all the power she can and concentrated on finishing the path she has made and lead it to the very room she was held. She heard the scientists panic and the alarms go off. She opened her eyes and saw the path she has made right in front of her. An extremely high voltage of electricity ran through her. It was higher than she had ever felt before. It was so high that even the lights inside the room were flickering. Muffled screams came out of her. Her whole body shook continuously. Pain ripped her apart inside and she quietly just wanted to die. Then the electrocution stopped. The alarms stopped. The pain stopped and she feared her heart might have too. She finally let go and drifted off to sleep.
Cam ordered his Reapers to surround the area. The lair was underground. After three days of waiting for the continuation of the path, it had started once again with intense speed and led them straight to the lair. He knew the Mad Hatter might have escaped already with the alarms going off. Ha and his Reapers turned anyone who was not Tanya to dust. He ran ahead following the path. He prayed that he was not yet too late. He entered a laboratory and turned all of the Mad Hatter’s scientists to dust. Then he saw it. The path ended in front of a human-size aquarium with someone in a blue dress imprisoned inside. He ran to it and confirmed his fears. It was Tanya. She had oxygen attached to her but he could not see even a bubble coming out of her. Her eyes were closed and hundreds of wires were connected to her. Her feet were chained to the floor. He pounded on the glass. Tanya did not even stir. He turned the glass into dust and a wave of water crashed into him and on the floor. He caught her and felt her pulse. It was extremely faint but it was there. He removed the oxygen and found that it was not functioning anymore. He kissed her and transferred life to her. It was more powerful and more effective than any other method of resuscitation. He continued to kiss her and transfer all the life sources he had consumed so much for both of them. She was not waking up. He was not going to cry. Hell, he wanted to! He could not bear to lose her. He wouldn’t be able to live not to see her smile at him again or call him Cammie. He would not be able to live without making her hear his thoughts the last evening he had seen her. That she had looked like the queen of faeries herself. He would not be able to live without her. He was crying already. He was lucky his Reapers were just stationed outside. Then he shook her like someone would shake someone to wake up a sleeping person.
“Damn it! Wake up, Tanya Everstone! I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU AND YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO DIE ON ME!!!” he shouted and kissed her with more intensity.
Then he felt her pulse began to speed up and began to go back to normal. He stopped kissing her but he held her and continued the transfer. Then her eyes opened.
“Cammie, I’m in love with you too,” Tanya whispered.


EPILOGUE
Dear Mr and Mrs Ashraic,
You have done great damage to all of my plans. Rest assured that I would not be targeting your wife anymore. A level 999 is too hard to experiment with. A masterpiece that even in my best efforts I cannot remake anymore. The government is using us both, leader of the Reapers. I wish for us to join forces for our own sakes. The time that they would hunt you Reapers is fast approaching.
Sincerely yours,
Mad Hatter
