Feral (The Irisbourn Chronicles book 1)
“Adrenaline coursed through my veins, and my brain worked faster. I fell to the ground just before the blade impaled my face. It whizzed past my ear, pulling a few loose strands of hair along with it.
Arisella did a very unimpressed slow clap. “That was better.”
“Better? I still almost died!”
Against my better discretion, I was back to playing target practice with Arisella and her knives. But, unlike the last time, I had agreed to be the target.
I used my sleeve to wipe the beads of perspira...tion running down my face. “I don’t think this really counts as training. You seem to be enjoying this a little too much.”
“It is a lot nicer being on the throwing end of the knife than the receiving…” Arisella stuck her finger through the circular loop at the butt of the knife and spun it. “… but we haven’t even gotten to the hard part yet. This is the first training Bloodbourn children go through.”
“That’s barbaric! How did they not die?”
“Some did,”MoreLess
