Unity and Destiny Pt. 04

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Javier laid his head briefly on the steering wheel before getting out and walking to the farmhouse door. It turned out that missing a couple days of class and homework was no joke. Esther seemed to be catching up fine, but two days after their escape from Oregon he felt like he'd barely spent time with her. That first night, of course they'd been too exhaust...

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Javier rearranged himself on Kat's couch and tried to focus on the course reading. But his mind kept returning to the cryptic message they'd gotten from Lukas. Have you heard of a group called the Chosen? Possibly recruiting those with Changes? What did it mean that he was asking them? Surely he'd know more than they did about—well, just about everything...

.........*** Chapter 6 ***......... "No sé Tú!" Javier crooned, worse than the last time. Esther laughed even harder from the passenger seat. The road stretched ahead of them, a two-lane state highway without much traffic. Miles of brown plowed fields mixed with the deep green of a few early winter crops. Javier had never driven this far up the state, but...

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

They said things would never be the same. The knife edge of a moment, separating the world of the past from the uncertain world to come. Of course, it was more than a moment. The Black Christmas attacks had occurred across hours at least. If Esther and the others at the party had been listening to the news they would already have heard about the first huge...

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

When Javier stretched and opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a pair of bare feet. They belonged to Kat, who'd apparently rolled his direction overnight. Jacob only had one bedroom, and the visitors had insisted on sharing the living room floor. Esther was still sitting in the same chair. Not asleep, but meditating. He hoped she'd gotten some sleep...

Javier rolled over, but Esther wasn't there. He opened his eyes and blinked in the morning light. She usually woke first, so she was probably getting breakfast now. Javier hoped she'd at least slept well. He was worried about her. He got dressed and headed down towards the other cabins. Strangely, his car was missing. Nicola must've borrowed it for errands,...

..........................*** Chapter 34 ***........................... Esther paused, breathed deeply, and tried to listen. It was ten minutes since she'd last seen Mark. She was still too loud, her lungs wheezing a little, her heartbeat drumming in her ears. She could hear a distant stream, an airplane, and a very faint rustle of trees. Nothing from Mark...

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

They were all grumpy and exhausted after the near-fiasco in Mexico. But Esther refused to let them put Jacob and Tomiko in danger by staying any longer than necessary. By the afternoon they'd returned the rental cars and picked up their own from the airport lot. While they made preparations for the next long drive, Esther sat with Jacob. "Why go all the way...

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Javier felt utterly out of place, in black clothes that didn't feel formal enough. Jacob had led the ceremony in his own living room, even singing a short Buddhist prayer. Javier went up to burn incense when it was his turn, staring dully at Mr. Tanaka's body. They'd found a black kimono to dress him in. Such a pointless death, for a man who might still have...

Welcome, The vampires reach a decision and they meet with the council. Julianne and BJ go home. New matings occur. This chapter is self-edited. I certainly hope the errors you find do not distract from the story. All characters in this story are above the age of consent. Happy reading. IR2R ***** Gernick waited at his home. He called his siblings and...
