EXCERPT FROM NEVER LET YOU FALL:
I stayed alert
as I started down the trail that led to the stone bridge, while my eyes
continuously scanned the shadowy forest to my left.
The sound of a branch snapping stopped me in
my tracks and I quickly spun around yelling, “Hello?” as I cast my eyes over
the area again.
The rustling of
leaves startled me, and I took a quick step back from the large group of bushes
where the noise had come from.
“Xander?”
A squirrel shot
out from underneath the brush and darted across the path, causing me to jump as
if the ground were on fire.
“AHHH!”
Clenching my
heart, I squeezed my eyes shut to calm myself.
Damn Xander for scaring me like that! I hated being scared! I had taken care of myself for so long that I
liked to think of myself as strong and tough.
Now along came Xander, giving life to the ‘little things that go bump in
the night”, and all of a sudden my courage seemed to be lacking.
I thought to
myself, ‘You’re crazy’ as doubt started to creep back into my overactive
thoughts. How did I know I could even
trust him?
As I stepped
away from the bushes to turn back onto the trail towards the bridge, I ran
headlong into someone.
“Oh
my gosh!” I apologized, looking at the man in front of me. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t….” my words trailed
off as the handsome man’s face shimmered in front of me; transforming into
something non-human and then back again.
