INTO THE DARKNESS
by K.F. Breene
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
I’d always been different. I saw objects in the night where
others saw emptiness. Large, human shaped shadows, fierce yet beautiful,
melting into the darkness. I collected secrets like other women collected
bells; afraid to fully trust lest my oddities be exposed.
Until I saw him. He’d been gliding down the street,
unshakable confidence in every step. It wasn’t just that he was breathtakingly
handsome with perfect features. Something about him drew me. Sucked my focus to
him and then tugged at my body. As his eyes met mine, I was entrapped.
No one had noticed him. He’d been right there, just beyond
the light, but only I had perceived.
I had to know if he was real. Or maybe I really was crazy.
And even when my secret box was blasted wide open, dangers hurled at me like
throwing knives, I couldn’t stop until I unraveled his true identity.
I just had to know.
“She was fated to live.”
“Then why must you save her?”
“Often Fate is struck down by dumb luck.”
EXCERPT
Stefen approached the wide bed,
looking down on the limp human, her angelic face devoid of color. Her arms
rested on her chest, her body so still she looked dead.
A shot of fear pierced Stefen’s
chest. “Will she make it?”
Luke’s head shook before he
sighed. “She shouldn’t have made it last time. Yet she did. Something is
holding her to this life.”
“My blood helped last time. Will
it help again?”
Luke sighed, raising his eyebrows
in a facial shrug. “If you can get her to drink, she might pull out of it.
Might. She should be dead already; she’s largely catatonic. But…well, she
survived last time, so who’s to say?”
Stefen nodded, allowing himself
to bestow his gaze back to this woman that had a firm hold on his vitals for
reasons he couldn’t understand or explain. The only thing he knew with
certainty was that she could not die.
AUTHOR Bio and
Links:
A wine country native, K.F. Breene moved to San Francisco for college
just shy of a decade ago to pursue a lifelong interest in film. As she settled
into the vibrant city, it quickly became apparent that, while she thought
making and editing films was great fun, she lacked cinematic genius. For that
reason, her career path quickly changed direction. Her next goal was a strange
childhood interest, conjured at the dining room table while filling out a form.
For some reason, her young self wanted to be an accountant. Thinking on it now,
she often wonders how she had any friends. Regardless, it was the direction she
finally took.
While she could wrangle numbers with the best of 'em, and even though
she wore the crown as the most outspoken, belligerent accountant in the world,
her mind got as stuffy as her daily routine. It was here that she dusted off
her creative hat and began writing. Now she makes movies in her head, not
worried about lighting, shutter speed or editing equipment. Turns out, a
computer is much easier to manage than a crowd of actors. She should know, she
was an actor at one time.
