I'm on vacation-staycation! Hopefully lots of writing will happen these days.
I'm continuing with the story from the previous weeks. In previous posts we saw that Kaila was in front of a Sin's door, staring in horror at the grotesque depictions. She's down there because she needs to access into his lair to save his sister. She had just decided that it was time to go inside when someone very annoying stopped her.
The last line from last week's snippet was Kaila saying: “You could’ve helped.”
This snippet has been edited to keep to guidelines.

“Would
you’ve let me?”
“No,
of course not.”
“Then,
what you whining about, babe? Besides, you’re a perfectly capable fighter. We
both know that.”
Kaila bit the inside
of her cheek. She would keep calm. She would not send Seamus to hell and back.
He was simply doing his job. She had known all along that once she entered this
dimension the Guardians would approach her.

Seems like she can handle her business. Looking forward to more.
ReplyDeleteHmm, the plot thickens. I do love a kick ass heroine :-)
ReplyDeleteAs do I. Kick the hell out of them and then run fast.
ReplyDeleteGreat snippet. I love a heroine (and hero) who can keep their cool, do what needs to be done, not what impulse would have her do.
ReplyDeleteHe seems to know her well. I want to know more about their relationship!
ReplyDeleteSo now they should get back to the mission she came for LOL! Enjoyed the snippet...
ReplyDeleteIt's very hard to stay calm when someone she finds irritating gets in her way. Good snippet.
ReplyDeleteLove her contradictory words about wanting help. That's how it goes sometimes!
ReplyDeleteThis is an intriguing snippet that raises a lot of questions but answers none.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering if he is goading her on purpose to get a reaction, if he doesn't care that he annoys her, or if he is truly unaware that she is annoyed.... Interesting snippet.
ReplyDeleteHmm and who is our mystery annoyer? (I apologise for missing last week!)
