Drake McCarty’s leg was shattered deep in the wilderness, and as the flash flood closed over him, he looked death in the face.
When he wakes up in a hospital bed, in a military base that shouldn’t exist, he has a whole leg and a furious sister to deal with.
Drake is sworn to keep a secret he doesn’t understand, but whatever pulled him out of the flood, isn’t quite done with him yet, because even if you leave nothing but footprints, the things that walk the forest can still follow you home.
Excerpt 16
“His colony called for him,” the assassin offered. “Secrecy is paramount. They cannot know.”
Bard flared green in agitation.
“He will have to hide this from his forebud.”
“Yes.” Sever agreed.
“That is not good,” Bard felt the flatness of the words even as he said them.
“Perhaps it would have been easier to leave him to extinguish in the bitter flood,” Sever offered.
The larger bard class turned his attention fully on the assassin class in shock even as he pulled away from his touch.
“Leave an ember to die?” he sent on a tight aimed pulse. “You make a poor joke Sever.”
There was silent darkness for a moment from where the other sat and then soft flickering.
“Still you think I jest,” Sever said in musing lights. “No matter. Just be certain to clean this taint before the sun sets.”
Bard’s attention was drawn away from his companion by the waves carrying the joyous reunion of the two buds and as always he pushed the disturbing thoughts inward to his core. Here was something good and bright. They carried the music of three cores between them but they harmonized delightfully.
