Nimue’s Price
Kim Knox
Dedication
For Teebee and for Mark, who knows the nuclear man.
And, as always, for Edwin, Daniel and Jack.
Nimue’s Price
Merlin
Merlin paced the room, waiting. This was taking too long. It should
be a short, simple rite, proving she didn't have the power, proving she
was just like all the rest.
He tightened his hands into fists.
Nobody took this long.
He made himself look at her, caught, pinned in the column of
burning light. Her milk-white hair crackled with fire. Her eyes sparked
with the same fire shrouding her, a glowing, incandescent surge of silver.
His skin prickled.
Raw power ate through her.
Damn it.
Nobody lasted. Not like this.
Nimue should be a pile of quivering pain slumped on the floor. One
barely able to breathe. He’d pick her up and clean the blood from her
face, his fingers stroking her smooth cheek. Holding his gaze, her brown
eyes would reach down into his soul—
No.
Merlin crushed those thoughts. He scrubbed at his face and his hand
came away damp.
“This is what you expected…” the Voice taunted him.
Merlin blew out a slow breath, willing away the needle of pain.
Yes. This was what he had known, deep down in his gut. He’d known
the Lady Nimue was just the same as him.
That she had the Sight.
