Excerpt
Elora gets a chance to explore her life beyond her friends
and family in a new posting in Fated.
Her new commander, Marcus, asks her to share the events in Africa (at
the end of Reflected). This scene was
interesting to write for me, to explore the sensations of being trapped in the
power that consumed Elora at the end of the previous book. It was also exciting
to explore the link between Elora and Zak. Enjoy!
The light. The power. It burns.
Save me! Save her! Siva? Mom?
Falling! Falling!
The arms. The arms that saved me. My eyes
scoured the ground for him, for his body. Tendrils of fear squeezed my already
exhausted heart and the threatened tears now fell furiously.
Then I realised where he must be.
I ran forward to the edge of the pit where
the circle had been formed.
“Zak!” It was more a gasp than a word.
Lying at the bottom in a crumpled heap of
blood and cloth was Zak.
“On the Spirits, no!” I couldn’t feel him
within me. I pushed aside each person, forced out each voice, searched desperately
for his mind.
There was nothing.
“NO!” I gasped as I tore myself from my own thoughts. Marcus rocked away
from me, clearly shaken by everything he had seen. It had been mere seconds,
such a lot to process in such a short space of time. Zak. All I wanted right
here and right now was him. The need was core deep and binding. I leapt to my
feet and stumbled as the blood pounded into my over-exhausted skull. Frantic, I
looked around, needing to see Zak. Needing to be sure he was safe.
