“It seemed I embarrassed more easily these days. Probably running down the street in negligee would embarrass anyone, but I still hoped that anyone who saw me would think it was strain causing the flush of color. Chasing after the bad guy cost no real effort on my part, so it wasn’t actually any added blood flow to my face making me blush. Stamina and speed were among the newfound benefits of being whatever monster I had become. I hoped my back-up would show up soon, however. The one thing we ha...d noticed about my powers, since I had them, was that I was similar to a cheetah. I had great, almost fantastic, bursts of speed with, as I said, little to no effort on my part. After the initial sprint, I started burning energy. When I burned energy it had to be replaced. Replacing energy for me involved more than taking a nap or snacking on a protein bar.

It was hard enough being a single mother—in a small town—who got dumped for a podiatrist by her lawyer husband.MoreLessRead More Read Less
