EXCERPT
Mila got away, Mila escaped, he reminded himself. She would be on the shore, or close to it, by nowthe storm would only weaken once the eye passedthey would make it back to her parents' house. He could imagine the surprised looks on George and Gloria's faces His thoughts were so focused on Mila that he didn't even notice the man pissing on him until a warm stream hit him in the face.

It was Chac, the man who had been groping Mila and Meredith on their way to the village. Ikan jerked up as far as the rope would allow, which was less than a foot. Chac laughed at his impotence, and Ikan was hit with the memory of every last insult, taunt, and beating Chac had ever given him, riding on waves of hot, angry pain.

Thinking was painful. Anger was painful. Better to feel nothingbe nothing. He would soon be dead, anyway.

But, for just once in his life and he thought, Why not? What is Eztli going to do, kill me?

So he did it again, for the second timehe envisioned a snake, coiled around the man's throat, choking him to death. The first time, in the jungle, the others had stopped him. But there was no other this time. Only Chac.

And Ikan, despite being tied like a lamb bound for slaughter, lying in the mud, felt giddy with power as Chac gasped and started to turn purple and began to claw at his throat. The serpentit wasn't real, and yet to Ikan it was as clear as dayaround his throat bobbed its head staring back at Ikan with cold, beady eyes, an unasked question flicking about its forked tongue.

And Ikan, hearing the voice in his head, answered, Yes.

Eztli was almost right, he thought as he watched Chac stagger away from him and collapse in the middle of the village. Shocked gasps came from the houses around them. I do not have a god within me. I am a god.
