Page 7 of Fractured Souls

Such obscene strength. What chance did she have?

He could kill her in the blink of an eye.

He laughed and pressed his lips against hers, probing mercilessly with his tongue as his hands tightened around her neck. Desperation gave her strength, and Alexis drove her fist into his gut, but it was like punching a wall. His torso was rock hard, and her blow had no effect whatsoever.

The Kordolian chuckled.

Her vision swam. She became lightheaded.

Disgust rose up in her, permeating through every cell of her body, paralyzing her.

The alien’s fangs dug into her lower lip, filling her mouth with the metallic taste of her own blood. He pressed his thumbs against sides of her neck where her carotid arteries ran.

A strange feeling came over her. Suddenly, she was detached from her own body, watching two twisting shadows in the darkness.

She, the smaller. He—the monster; it—looming over her, a dark shadow threatening to consume her in the worst way possible.

She was going to die here.

No!

Out of sheer desperation, she did the only thing she could think of.

She bit down hard, her teeth cleaving partway through his disgusting tongue.

Bitterness filled her mouth as she tasted his blood. She coughed and gagged, overcome with revulsion.

Abruptly, the Kordolian broke the depraved kiss, roaring in anger. His hand crashed down upon her face with such brutal force that she fell to the ground face first, wondering how the hell she was still conscious.

“For that, you are gonna die, human filth.” His voice was thick and distorted, his words congealing into a stream of unintelligible grunts.

Alexis scrambled backwards. The Kordolian lumbered forward, spitting blood out of his mouth. He squatted on his haunches in front of her. There was a strange sound, like fabric rustling, and then a rough hand raked through her hair, yanking her head up. “Suck on it, bitch.”

In the shadows, she could almost make out the outline of his long, disgusting…

This can’t be happening!

She shook her head furiously and clenched her teeth. The alien thrust his fingers into her mouth, prising her jaw open. She gasped for air, trying to bite down on him, but he was obscenely strong.

“Do it,” he grunted, breathing heavily.

Bile rose in her throat. She was going to puke. Alexis decided there was no fucking way this revolting creature was going to put his dick in her mouth, even if she died here.

And then she heard it.

Tiptiptip.

Something hard and metallic bounced off the rocks, landing somewhere at her feet.

Could it be…?

Click.

Flash.

A supernova engulfed her, drenching the world in brilliant violet light.

Then it all went back to black.
