Intuition (2012)
“Kylie’s body tumbled past him and he stretched out his arms to cushion her landing. But she flew beyond his reach.
He hit the ground with a thump and immediately began scrabbling across the uneven ground to where Kylie’s inert form had landed.
The blaze from the house crackled behind him and another explosion rocked the ground.
He reached Kylie and scooped her up in his arms. On his knees and clutching Kylie to his chest, he hobbled away from the blazing inferno.
When he’d reach...ed a clearing several yards away from the house, he lay Kylie on the ground and bent over her, placing a hand on her chest. It rose and fell beneath his palm and he blew out a pent-up, acrid breath.
“Kylie, can you hear me?”
She moaned and her lids fluttered.
“Hang on. You’re going to be okay.”
At least her breathing sounded normal and she didn’t have any burns that he could see, although the ends of her hair were singed.MoreLess
