I heard a whisper in a language I'd never heard, "Myi inthell. Que et Vhiken." Then it spoke again louder this time, "My child. I am Vhiken."
I turned my head so that I could see the face, see what creature spoke in such musical tines the voice had carried. She was stunning. Skin white as ice, with lips that shimmered iridescent shades of the mother of pearl, the creases of which were infused with a deep purplish blue. She had sharp eyes black and penetrating. Yes, irises black as death blended into her pupils. Her hair was short and unruly, curling about her head like a silver crown. It gleamed in the dancing light. A high forehead hosted silver brows that arched dramatically over her large black eyes. High cheekbones set off a strong jaw. She blinked twice, then smiled.
So this was the creature, hardly human, that did nothing to help as I struggled against my bindings. Attempting to lull me to sleep with the voice of an angel. Verry well then,I didn't need her help. After all I was Lorelei.
So I hope you liked that peek at my new book. Lorelei is the main character, I'll warn you a feisty depressed girl, orphaned as a babe on the stoop of a wealthy merchant. Her name means:
Siren, Lure to the rocks.
This will mean a lot later on in the story. It's comming along wonderfully though I'm afraid I won't fifnish fo a long while. then I'll edit and revise mabe 100 times over. and maby someday you'll be reading it in the comfort of your own room. The full story. Which you have followed starting this day. Who knows the world is full of potential.
Wish me luck. heart Rai
