Thanks for your encouraging comments. This week things have gone better and slowly but surely, I'm getting back on track.
In today's snippet, you guys will finally meet Mikelo!
Let's
recap: Clare (aka Luna), has met a mysterious, yet hunky, alien who's
come to take her back to his home. She believes he's Mikelo, the alien
boy she'd met twenty years ago... but he's presented himself as Serrik.
In shock, Clare doesn't know how to react. Serrik taunts her and asks
her why she is not screaming. In the previous snippet he tells her that
her destiny is tied with his people. Clare denies it and he threatens
her. Serrik will do whatever it takes to get Clare back to his world and
to Mikelo.
Serrik has let Clare know that if she doesn't adapt to his alien world
she'll die (be killed). Clare runs and Serrik follows at a slow pace
until he gets tired, hides behind a tree and re-captures her. Finally, he drags her back to his own world...

Mikelo watched her.
She was deep in slumber, her eyes and mind closed to the new
world around her. A world so different, yet so similar to her own, or at least
so he thought. She’d
been here before once and she had not been frightened by what she’d seen. Why was she
scared now?
Even though he’d
known her briefly as a child, she was strong. Had she lost that strength? Had she become like
the rest of her race? Too weak to do little else but complain? Too weak to
fight? To live?

Fascinating the way you've described his inner thoughts. This reader wants more and that's enough to give a bit more perk to you. Be well, my friend. Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteFabulous snippet.
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed all the snippets from this story. I think it's building so well. I'm looking forward to more.
ReplyDeleteHis thoughts are interesting. I think sometimes children are much braver than adults, but I've got confidence in your heroine as a grownup - terrific snippet!
ReplyDeleteAh, we get to meet him at last. I'll be interested in her reaction when she wakes up :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad things are going better, Elyzabeth! And this story has me hooked! Write faster. :-) I do want to read this when it's done!
ReplyDeleteOoh, this is intriguing. I have a feeling she's going to surprise him. Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteSo she found him (technically he seems to have found her)... or has he always been here, just part and parcel of others?
ReplyDeleteI love how he feels about humans. He's right to, I'm embarrassed to say.
