INTO THE DARKNESS

BLURB:
I’d
always been different. I saw objects in the night where others saw emptiness.
Large, human shaped shadows, fierce yet beautiful, melting into the darkness. I
collected secrets like other women collected bells; afraid to fully trust lest
my oddities be exposed.
Until
I saw him. He’d been gliding down the street, unshakable confidence in every
step. It wasn’t just that he was breathtakingly handsome with perfect features.
Something about him drew me. Sucked my focus to him and then tugged at my body.
As his eyes met mine, I was entrapped.
No
one had noticed him. He’d been right there, just beyond the light, but only I
had perceived.
I
had to know if he was real. Or maybe I really was crazy. And even when my
secret box was blasted wide open, dangers hurled at me like throwing knives, I
couldn’t stop until I unraveled his true identity.
I
just had to know.
“She
was fated to live.”
“Then
why must you save her?”
“Often
Fate is struck down by dumb luck.”

Excerpt
Three:
Stefen approached the wide bed, looking down on the limp
human, her angelic face devoid of color. Her arms rested on her chest, her body
so still she looked dead.
A shot of fear pierced Stefen’s chest. “Will she make it?”
Luke’s head shook before he sighed. “She shouldn’t have made
it last time. Yet she did. Something is holding her to this life.”
“My blood helped last time. Will it help again?”
Luke sighed, raising his eyebrows in a facial shrug. “If you
can get her to drink, she might pull out of it. Might. She should be dead
already; she’s largely catatonic. But…well, she survived last time, so who’s to
say?”
Stefen nodded, allowing himself to bestow his gaze back to
this woman that had a firm hold on his vitals for reasons he couldn’t
understand or explain. The only thing he knew with certainty was that she could
not die.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
A wine
country native, K.F. Breene moved to San Francisco for college just shy of a
decade ago to pursue a lifelong interest in film. As she settled into the
vibrant city, it quickly became apparent that, while she thought making and
editing films was great fun, she lacked cinematic genius. For that reason, her
career path quickly changed direction. Her next goal was a strange childhood
interest, conjured at the dining room table while filling out a form. For some
reason, her young self wanted to be an accountant. Thinking on it now, she
often wonders how she had any friends. Regardless, it was the direction she
finally took.
While she
could wrangle numbers with the best of 'em, and even though she wore the crown
as the most outspoken, belligerent accountant in the world, her mind got as
stuffy as her daily routine. It was here that she dusted off her creative hat
and began writing. Now she makes movies in her head, not worried about
lighting, shutter speed or editing equipment. Turns out, a computer is much
easier to manage than a crowd of actors. She should know, she was an actor at
one time.
