I turned around to see the blond woman with rainbow-streaked dreads. “You damned your family to hell. And now you belong to me.”
“To you? Why?”
She came closer, pressing her lips to my ear. “You’re back with your mommy, where you always belonged.”
“Then let them go! You have me: two of your strongest children in one body. Do what you want to me, but let my wife and daughter out of this f*****g place!” I felt like crying, but if this was really my mother, she was the last person to whom I wanted to admit defeat.
“No, I think I’ll have you kill them, starting with Annie.” She walked to where Annie stood. “You went with her because you saw her as the mother you always wanted.”
“Annie!” I cried. But as I spoke, I realized I had Bobby’s voice. Raven was no more, at least not in this world.
