Book Excerpt:
When I
left Cearno’s in a state of half sleep, I found the door to my apartment ajar.
I grabbed the knob and pushed it open
with
caution, assuming I had forgotten to close it all the way.
“Hello?” I asked, just in case.
No
answer. I shut the door behind me.
It wasn’t
until I reached the top of the stairs that I felt something wet on my palm and
realized I had blood on my hand.
I made my
way to the sink, looking for where I’d cut myself when I heard her.
“It’s not your blood,” Kara said from behind me, making me jump a
foot in the air.
“What are you doing here, Kara?” I asked, callous and guarded. The
last time I’d seen her, she’d stabbed me in the leg.
She was
slumped down in the corner, sitting on the floor of my kitchen, a bloody mess.
My face
registered with shock. “What happened to you?”
I waited
for an answer, but she only glanced at me briefly, annoyed by the question, and
continued staring off into the distance.
“Are you
hurt?”
If she
wasn’t going to talk to me I would find out for myself. I knelt down in front
of her, looking over her blood stained hands,
arms and
face. She seemed fine.
“It’s not
my blood either,” she said, her eyes finally meeting mine.
