Excerpt
The moment he released his grip on me,
I gasped for air. With not a moment to lose, I raised my sword above my head
with a strength and agility I didn’t know I possessed. Then I was charging at
Cabhan, who met my challenge running toward me.
“Kellen, no.” I was frozen in
mid-air. Calienta had crooked a finger at me and frozen me in place. “You can’t
kill him, Kellen, you’re a mortal. He’ll take your life. Please back down.” She
released me and I dropped to the ground, my knees like jelly.
Color
flooded my face as humiliation coursed through my veins. I was about to tell
her my real thoughts when I glanced down at the sword in my hand and noticed an
inscription on the hilt: Claíomh Solais.
I rose to my feet, gripping
Calienta’s arm. “Look, you have to trust me on this. I know what to do.”
Her
eyes met mine, confused, afraid. I sensed her anger and fear all at once as she
spoke. “How do you know what to do? How could you?”
“You
have to trust me. You asked me to trust you once; do you trust me?”
Her
eyes lingered on mine, intense, concerned. “I do.”
