Blood Rose-20
"Would you believe me if I told you Lila taunted me?" he offered slowly. She as staring ahead but she wasn't looking at anything. For the first time in a long time she had no idea how to feel about what had just happened to her. She couldn't pull any...
Blood Rose-23
The walk back to the tribesman's village was a chilly awkward one, and left Jason feeling younger than he had even when he traveled with Micha. And she had an uncanny ability to make him feel like an ass. He glanced around himself in grudging...
Blood Rose-18
The winter turned bitter in a matter of weeks. They no longer huddled together at the entrance of their small cavern to watch the early night drift by. Jason frantically gathered firewood and dried the snow from it to conserve the heat of their...
Blood Rose-7
She curled up one night to sleep, but left one eye uncovered. She had never watched him ready for sleep and she felt compelled to do so now. They knew little of each other, despite their travel time. He seemed aware of her shifts from Cassie to Micha,...
Blood Rose-21
He swept his hand along her back and stayed silent for a long while. She rested her chin on his chest and made soft churring noises that he could feel against his skin. "You were going to tell me about your pa remember?" he reminded her. She huffed...

Blood Rose-10

Opposing Forces-1
The small flustered fox panted as she passed her paw through the door of the elevator and squeezed in next to a harassed looking raccoon. She had never been late to a meeting in her life and she'd be damned if she was late to one now. She pulled out a...
Blood Rose-6
He wrapped his arms wrapped around her knees, squeezing her tight as she let her more feral side play out on him. Her leap of faith was rewarded, as he dropped the dagger to the ground to fall backwards and bowl them over. He felt her needle sharp...
