I'm hoping to release The Sector soon. I'll post with an official release date when I get one.
And because I just can't help myself, here's a spoiler-free excerpt for you all:
Sweat dripped down my back,
drenching my thin shirt. We stopped next to a river for our daily meal. I
slipped down the bank and pulled my shirt off over my head, dipping it in the
cool water. I wrung the fabric out before dipping it again in the river. As I
ran the cool cloth over my bare skin, the brush behind me rustled. I held the
cloth over my chest and searched the area for the intruder.
“Who’s
there?” I whispered.
No
answer.
“Who’s
there?” I asked again.
Silence.
And then, the brush to my right moved. I spun around.
“Who’s
there?” I demanded.
Slowly
a young man emerged from the underbrush. I gasped and took a step backward, not
paying attention to my footing. I slipped on a wet rock and lunged back toward
the rushing water. A hand shot out and grabbed my upper arm, pulling me safely
on to the shore.
“Careful,
you don’t want to fall in,” he smirked.
I
wrenched myself free of his grasp and quickly pulled on my shirt. I folded my
arms across my chest and glared at the man in front of me.
“What
do you want?” I spat.
“A
thank you would be nice,” he shrugged. “But that’s probably a reach for you.”
I
blushed and stared down at the ground. “Thanks,” I mumbled.
“I’m
sorry, didn’t catch that,” he goaded.
“Thanks,”
I grumbled loud enough for him to hear me. “What do you want?”
“Oh
come on!” he laughed. “Are you still mad at me?”--The Sector, coming soon!!
