And that moment when Kolkhis turned her full attention to Mildmay and Corbie became invisible was the moment Corbie struck. Muttering words under her breath to subdue a ghost, she brought up her hand and slammed her flat palm against Kolkhis's breastbone, above where her heart was at least supposed to be.
"Okay. Now you're gonna listen to me a fucking minute." Not that she'd have much choice in the matter. Corbie wasn't about to let her speak again, now that she'd touched this ghost with her power. She didn't know if what came out of her was really for Kolkhis or if it was for herself or if it was for Mildmay, but the words would be said all the same.
"Yeah. You made him into that. Good for you, he was a child. And even then, big scary boss bitch you are, he was too strong for you to break. You don't know a fucking thing about who he is. And I ain't about to give you the time to learn, because he needs his rest, I was done with you yesterday, and he's been done a fuck of a lot longer than that. Get. Out."
Only then did she speak the final words of the spell, dispelling the ghost.
