Set-up (last week)... Greta runs away from her surprise engagement party through the woods. Pax saves her from a shadow demon. Oh, and he's a unicorn!

“Wait...back up. The demon has fed on me. Like, already?”
He nodded.

Tune in next week for more!

I wonder if she'll believe him
ReplyDeleteExcellent tension in the dialogue. i love how he challenges her and we're left wondering if she did get fed on.
ReplyDeleteWhat happens next is my question. Good eight.
ReplyDeleteOoh, a creepy thought but better for her to know the truth. Excellent excerpt!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to read more! Love Skillet too BTY!
ReplyDeleteLove the tension. Great use of the 8!
ReplyDeleteOooh, does she know? My goodness, very intriguing snippet!
ReplyDeleteEw. I'd think you'd know, too. But it depends on what the demon feeds on. Her life-force? Soul?
ReplyDelete...creepy.
Crap! That is a scary thought!
ReplyDelete"You positive" what does he mean by that?
