Thanks to all of you who've emailed and sent me a shout out on multiply, twitter, and IMRR.  Here's a peak into Kayne and Asia's story....

The cacophony died down until only uneasy quiet

remained. Soft, dim waves of light streamed inside,

creating more shadows than not.

After a moment, Asia pushed back the tangled

mess that was her hair and stood. “Good Lord,” she

whispered, surveying the damage.

Absently smoothing her hands down her skirt,

she stepped over broken coffee mugs, ruined

paperwork, and scattered Rolodex cards. To her

right, a flickering light caught her eye.

Asia crossed the room toward it.

What she found was a

crystalline chunk of hail, nearly twice the size of

her fist, glowing from where it lay wedged under a

desk. Mesmerized, she knelt and extended a hand

to touch it.

The chunk moved.

She snatched her hand back, body tensing. She

swallowed, shook herself. “It didn’t move.” Almost

defiantly she touched the spiky object. It was cold,

very cold yet oddly pliable and definitely

not hail.

So what was it? She’d put both hands around the

object to dislodge it from under the desk, when

light blazed from within. It began to grow and

elongate. It doubled then tripled in size, taking

shape. The desk tilted backward precariously,

unable to contain it.

Asia scrambled to her feet and backed away.

She watched the thing grow a moment then, eyes

wide, bolted for the door. She’d seen enough sci'fi

to know when it was time to run. The door

slammed shut and locked the instant she reached

it, causing her to crash into it. Hot panic closed her

throat, making it impossible for her to even

scream.

She clutched the door handle jiggling it

frantically. It wouldn’t budge. “Open, damn it!”

She pounded her fists on the heavy wood, threw

her body against it, pounded some more. “Shit!”

Both the building and the parking lot had been

empty for hours, so there’d be no help coming from

that direction. Still she was tempted to try

screaming…as soon as she was able. She chanced a

glance over her shoulder but could no longer see

the thing pulsing on the floor. She yanked on the

handle again.

A tremendous crash and a brilliant flash of

white stilled her and sent her heart catapulting to

the back of her throat.

“Kai'let turat na, idy'ya dae.”

Asia froze. Her breath came in tiny hitches as

icy tendrils of fear skittered down her spine. Too

frightened to look, too frightened not to, she

stopped thinking and spun around.

This time she screamed.

*****

A man, tall and heavily muscled, stood at the

edge of the shadows sliding loose'fitting pants up

and over his bare hips. He pulled the strings taut,

tied them, then lowered his hands to his sides.

Glittering storm gray eyes regarded her from

behind a thick fall of white blond hair that stopped

at his chest. The man’s golden skin contrasted

sharply with the black scroll tattoo etched into the

right side of his neck.

The way the man stood there just staring at her

frightened Asia far more than the way

he’...formed out of an inanimate chunk of ice

and light.

Not human. Not human.

The words echoed in her mind like a mantra.
