THE AVENGER

Jaid Black




“That little man in black says woman can’t have as much rights as man because Jesus wasn’t a woman. Where did your Christ come from? Where did He come from? From God and a woman. Man had nothing to do with Him.” ~ Sojourner Truth




Chapter 32


I feel the darkness come upon me now more than the light. The monster more so than the woman…

“What happened?” Dr. Patricia Reddy asked. Her brown eyes widened. Anxiety radiated off of her in waves. “Where is she?”

Kora took a deep breath and expelled it. “I don’t know,” she muttered, wringing her hands. She began to pace, an ominous feeling settling in her stomach. They needed Tara Riley back now. Without her, the child in Kora’s belly stood no hope at all. Neither did Kora herself for that matter. “She had me go through the portal first. When I turned around to help her through it, the door slammed shut.”
