First- HAPPY VETERANS DAY! Thank you to the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country. Thank you.
Second - Teaser time.
Here is my teaser for the week:
“I need you to relax.”
It was Nick. He wasn’t tangled in wire. He stared down at me, his blue eyes
staring at me bound.
I
tried to slow my breath. “It’s not as easy as you think it is, ya know?”
“I’m
going to try something. I don’t know if it will work.”
“What
are you going to do?” I asked in a rush.
“I’m
going to try and get you out of there. I need you to twine your fingers with
mine through the wire.”
I
couldn’t see my hands. They were restricted, bound tight to my sides. I felt
his fingers touch mine and I wanted the freedom to grasp his hands. Our fingers
barely wrapped around each other’s.
I
was about to ask him how exactly holding my finger tips was going to help, when
I felt a weightless feeling. I wasn’t bound up by the wire. I felt like gravity
had completely given way. I was an astronaut floating.
Floating
until I smacked solidly into Nicholas. I hit him with an incredible force,
gaining no balance, but he instinctively caught me again.
