CHASING THE WIND by Nazarea
Andrews
EXCERPT
The Rover’s Son smiles, but
he doesn’t say anything else
to me as he kisses Kaida’s hand and
then strides into the gloom.
For a long minute,
we stand still, staring after him in silence. Then she shivers, a convulsive
shudder, and I shove her toward the wagon, almost throwing her into it.
She lands with a
soft grunt and I stare at her in the sol light. Outraged doesn’t begin to describe
what I am right now. And from the way her chin goes up and her shoulders go
back, she knows it.
“What the hell was
he doing in my wagon?” I snap, “Did he touch
anything?”
“You mean aside from
me,” she demand, her
voice bitter, and I freeze in my quick scan of the interior of my home. Stare
at her hard until her gaze drops.
"Tell me what
happened." I say, and she looks away.
"He showed up
a little bit ago. Wanted to talk."
"Was Cedric still here?"
Her gaze, startled
and a little bit afraid, swings up to me. Good. Let her be afraid.
