Immortal Sea
“No longer shark, but human.
The fear and temper that had driven Morgan to herd the boy ashore threatened to explode in all too human ways now they were on land. He clenched his fists, willing them to subside.
The boy was back and safe for now.
He strode out of the surf. “Get up.”
Zachary spat. “Get away from me.”
Not an auspicious beginning to the discussion they must have.
Perhaps he had been rough on the boy, but the threat, and his own pumping terror, had taken him by surprise.
“Are you all ...right?” Morgan asked.
Zachary curled to a sitting position, covering himself. “Leave me alone.”
Morgan’s eyes narrowed. The boy appeared unharmed. Bruised, embarrassed, angry, but unharmed. But there had been a definite taint of demon in the water where he found him. The children of the sea were immortal, but they could still be killed. Possessed. Zachary, half-human and inexperienced, was particularly vulnerable even before he was targeted by the demon lord.
