Trail of the Torean (Book 2)
“It felt ominous to Garrick. As they approached the pass, he found himself even more anxious, and more edgy than he had been before.
His hunger was growing.
It was an acidic burn in his gut, a scrubbing in his veins. It played with his mind like a nearly intelligible whisper. He imagined it growing within him, sprouting vaporous tentacles, drifting around him, searching, exploring, hunting. At times he thought his hunger even wrapped itself around Darien’s warm presence, but he pushed that darkn...ess away.
Perhaps he truly was learning to control this beast inside him, he thought when he made the hunger bend to his will, but, he could not deny that it grew more and more difficult as day passed.
There was so much he still didn’t know.
“Do you think you are god-touched?” Darien said at one point.
Garrick shrugged. He didn’t want to talk about it. “I doubt it.”
But uttering this made Garrick feel like a liar. It was possible. More than possible. Braxidane had called him an apprentice, after all.MoreLess
