Styx & Stoned (The Grim Reality Series book 2)
“Desperation and panic propelled me down the stairs and to the spot where she’d disappeared. I leaned over the side, not considering that I could meet the same fate. Among the chalky wet limbs, fighting to keep her grip on the edge of the ferry, glinted blood red fingernails. “My God, Mara!”
Scooting forward, I grappled for her wrist but the lost souls blocked my attempts, clawing at me. Sharp nails gouged deep furrows in my arms and blood trickled down my wrist. Pain shot through my arms, but I ignored it, bending lower. “Hold on! Don’t let go!”

I wiggled back enough to grab it, and then swung it over my head, bringing it down hard on the white arms. The sickening crunch of bone meeting metal ricocheted through me. My stomach heaved and vomit rose up my throat, but I didn’t stop. Again, I jabbed, sending one of the lost s...ouls melting into the blackness.MoreLess
