Camelot Burning (2014)
“The light moves around me like a untrustworthy wind, ushering me closer to an altar, a dull chalice sitting atop. My hand reaches for it, but a voice tells me it’s not mine to— A door slams. My eyes snap open.
That golden world fades.
My fingers grip a gentleman’s jacket and a blanket wrapped around me. I’m pressed against Marcus, my head in the crook of his shoulder, his arm across my waist. The fire has long since sputtered out. Wind rattles the barn’s poorly made door. The storm has ...passed. Merlin’s spell held; Morgan never found us. And now it’s morning.
“Oh goodness!” I’m to my feet instantly, and the jacket and blanket fall. Marcus takes a few seconds to awaken. I leap from the bundles of hay for the door.
“Wait … hold on … ” Marcus calls after me, sleep still woven in his voice.
There’s a gentle hum of crickets as the sky turns from purple to blue, the sun threatening to appear at any second.MoreLess
