Chapter 103

“Nathan, now!” Walter called.

Kicking up off the ground, Nathan hoisted his backside up onto the top of the car’s hood, flattened himself, rolled off onto the other side, and came down again on his feet, ready to run. But when Nathan turned to bolt, he saw that Gabriel was faster than he had given him credit, standing there to block his escape and readying a shot.

“Nathan!”

The gun fired, a bullet disappearing somewhere into the sky as the blur of a figure knocked Gabriel to the ground. For a moment Nathan thought it was somehow Walter, but then he saw a flash of red hair.

Nathan stood frozen at first watching as Gabriel and Sasha grappled on the ground. Gabriel ended up on top of the incubus, and although his gun had been dropped, Nathan could see something glinting in Gabriel’s other hand.
