Genesis Earth; the Roads out of Eden - Genesis Earth, #3 - E-book - ePub

He was sure now, that he had somehow become trapped in this dead body. Which was bad, but was not that bad. It meant that he could maybe exact a small amount of revenge on Luther. He could try at least. He wasn't completely sure it would be successful, but he wasn't convinced it wouldn't be. He had reasoned it simply enough. Luther terrified him, plain and simple, but when he had examined his fear, he had realized that Luther had never been able to touch him.
Scare him, yes, threaten to hurt him, yes again, but he had never actually touched him. So, he supposed, maybe he wasn't able to. Maybe all he could do was threaten and if that was all he could do, maybe Willie could put-a-hurtin' on him. Maybe he could throttle the bastard. Maybe reach right out and strangle him. After all he felt strong, he told himself, in fact he felt... invincible, almost, and what could Luther do? Kill him? Ha, that was laughable, and really, if he could, it would be welcome.
He wanted to die, wished he had died, even thought for sure at first that he had. Either way it was worth a try. If it bought death, real death, it would be a relief, if it didn't, Luther might find himself the one wishing for death, because if he got his hands around his neck, and he couldn't stop him... Well, he reasoned, he just might be able to kill him. Either way, he was convinced it would end everything.
His life, hopefully Luther's, all of it, and wouldn't that be sweet?
