Free Burkheart Witch Saga Book 2 by Christine Sutton

sweet little one. He stopped himself, wanting to savor the experience. He wanted to make her suffer and plead for her life and the life of her baby.
    It was going to be such sweet revenge. He found himself getting aroused at the thought of ripping her limb from limb. First, he would kill her pussy husband, and then rip that little piglet out of her and eat it in front of her. After all of that, as she begged for death, he would eat her piece by piece, keeping her alive to watch him dine on her flesh.
    His arousal became too much for him, and he let out a lustful whimper. Covering his mouth, he ducked back further into bush and shadows. The woman turned around and surveyed the dark corner where he hunkered down in hiding. She had a suspicious look on her face, and even from his far away hiding spot, he could smell the fear dripping off her like sweet dew from the skin of ripe fruit. Dismissing the noise, she made her way into the safety of her home.
    It would happen soon. She was going to pay for everything she had done. He was going to make sure of it. Sulking away into the approaching darkness, he was impatient for his revenge but vowed to bide his time until the perfect moment presented itself.
    That baby would be a nice, plump mouthful for sure.

    " O w !" Kayla yelled and bolted upright in her bed. David awakened with a start and turned frantically toward his pregnant wife.
    "Wha...what is it?" he asked, still groggy from his peaceful sleep.
    "Just a kick, I think."
    "Do you need anything? Are you ok?"
    "Yeah, go back to sleep."
    "Are you sure?" He asked again, not totally convinced.
    "Yes, honey. Go back to sleep. I'm sorry I woke you." Kayla kissed him goodnight and laid herself down to try and rest.
    Just as they were both sinking back into a comfortable, pain free sleep, they were awakened once more by a loud crash coming from the backyard.
    "What the fuck?" David shouted as he got up out of the bed and stepped into his slippers.
    "Where are you going?" Kayla asked, worried.
    "I'm gonna go see what the hell made that racket."
    "Let it wait 'til morning."
    "It could be raccoons or dogs or something. If they get into the compost hut it'll be a huge fucking mess."
    "Just be careful."
    "Yeah," David said off-handedly as he slipped on a hoodie and grabbed a baseball bat from the corner of the room.
    Kayla got up and slipped on her robe while David headed downstairs. She followed a few minutes behind, not wanting to rush down the steps, and not wanting to piss him off any further.
    She walked to the sliding glass door that opened onto the backyard and looked out.
    David stood next to the overturned compost hut shining his flashlight around the yard. Kayla caught glimpses of the spilled banana peels and rotting vegetables intermingled with the remnants of the straw building that was now toppled over.
    "What the fuck?"
    "What is it, David?" Kayla asked from the doorway, tightening her robe against the cold air.
    "No raccoon did this ," he said, flashing the light across the section of pavement in front of the destroyed straw hut.
    Even though she was in her bare feet, Kayla walked out to stand by his side.
    "Get back in the house," she said, looking down at the mangled body of a white rabbit lying next to words written on the concrete, obviously in the poor bunny's blood.
    Little Pigs, Little Pigs
    She shuffled back inside with David close behind her.
    "What the hell is going on?" she asked no one in particular before she locked the door and they headed upstairs.

    K ayla and David sat at the table in the kitchen, drinking hot tea. The events of last night had been buried, washed away, and cleaned up.
    The silence between them was like a thick curtain. Each of them knew the other was there, but neither had any idea what to say. Kayla knew she would have to be the one to break the silence.
    "David…," she began, not sure of how to finish. She wanted to apologize for getting him into a magical mess once again, but Kayla
