Excerpt:
I didnβt realize it was possible to smell fear. To taste it. To ingest it like a tangible substance. But it is. I smell it now. On my clothes. In my hair. Seeping skin deep. I taste its pungent sharpness as it fills my mouth and slides down my throat.
My entire body trembles in my alien captorβs arms as we languish in some alternate realm, traveling through space and time. Muscular arms entrap me at the waist as he holds me firmly against him. Itβs just as well, because my limbs are boneless, my body as fluffy as a wispy cloud. He whispers something in my ear, but I canβt hear over the alarm bells blaring like sirens in my head.
A blast of biting cold air whips my hair off my face, streaming behind me like a flag flapping in the wind. The alien splutters, and his hold loosens a smidge. The skin on my face wobbles like Jell-O, and my nose is frozen stiff and about ready to drop off.
Suddenly, Iβm free falling, as if Iβm weightless and plummeting, down, down, down, dropping father and farther until I land on something solid with a resounding thud.
Iβm crashing about, stumbling like a drunkard, as the alien struggles to keep me in his grasp. My bones continue to shudder as my feet stabilize. Slowly, cautiously, I open my eyes. Accosted by a sudden blinding light, I snap them closed again, swaying against the boy. Piercing screams break through the haze of disorientation. I slowly blink my eyes open and focus my vision.
βEscort her to the Med Bay immediately,β a horribly familiar voice says. Glancing sideways, I watch Griselda hand the injured alien girl to a strangely attired guard ascending the steps in front of us. Heβs encased in a silver and black armored shell suit, a mask obscuring his face.
The girl is doubled over, clutching her torso, writhing in pain. Lifting her head, she fixes me with a toxic look. Not that I can blame her for that. Burned, charred skin cloaks the right-hand side of her face, and I wince. Her clothing hangs in tatters across her upper torso, exposing a scorched trail of blackened, blistering skin. Acid churns in my stomach. I did that to her, and Iβm not proud. But she was going to kill Logan, and Iβd do it all over again if it meant keeping him safe.
