The Cursed Hollow (Return to Sleepy Hollow Book 1)
Page 21
“Thank you for your help, spirit,” I told her, shivering when I heard my own voice. I was Katrina Van Tassel, and even time itself could not stop me. “It’s nearly time. Once I am in my body again, I will help you find a more permanent residence.” I gave her a smile, and she smiled in return, flashing a mouth full of razors.
Soon enough I would claim what was mine.
I returned to earth, moving to the desk near the mirror. I pulled out the top drawer on the right, retrieving something small. A journal. A journal of a madman, although, truth be told, he wasn’t so mad after all.
I wondered what Philip Aleson would say if he knew his own work would be the downfall of Sleepy Hollow. I wondered what he would do if he knew the orchestrator of his own murder was going to take his daughter’s soul, too. After all, it was mine.
That body was mine. That Horseman was mine. Fate, destiny dictated it; she would have no choice in the matter. Her time drew to a close. When the stars aligned, it would all be over for her, and it would begin anew for me. Kat Aleson had no idea what maelstrom of misery was headed her way.
Thank you for reading! Please think about leaving a review, even if it’s a short one. They really make us indie authors happy (and let us know that people are actually reading our work). Twenty words and a star rating—that’s all it takes!
