“Time waits for no man.” He looked at me with eyes as dark as the night around us. I took a step back, the heels of my boots skimming the doorway behind me. Suddenly he was right in front of me. I jerked back, flattening my hands against the gritty brick to my back. With nowhere left to go, I was forced to stand still as he leaned in even closer, turning so the entire left side of my body was engulfed in his fiery body heat. Slowly, he lowered his head and brushed his lips against my ear lobe. “You’re assuming again,” he murmured, lowering his voice so I could barely hear him above the sounds of the forest. My breath came out in a low gasp; I’d forgotten to breathe when he corned me. I turned my head to the side and ignored the fear rattling my bones. It took me a minute to unclench my teeth enough to speak through them. “Assuming what?” He grinned and leaned in so we were nose to nose. “That I’m human.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Claire Colt is a girl who can never die. Allison Fey is a girl who never should have lived. Both have danced with the devil, but only one was meant to come back. Now they've each got a price on their heads and with two hell hounds, some monsters, and seven demons on their tails, the girls have to put a long-standing rivalry behind them and start working together. Or no one's making it out of West River alive. BOOK 1: The Seven Deadly Sins

***COMPLETED*** "I need to talk to you." she said in a small voice shutting the door behind her. Her hair fell from her bun in red ringlets around her face; her eyes searched his making his heart race in a very uncharacteristic way. he'd had been with women since his wife died- mostly saloon girls but none of them made him feel as nervous as the one in front of him. "You need to spend less time full as a tick in the saloon and more time with your daughters." She said looking right at him, that wasn't what he'd expected her to say at all "I know what you're going through Mr. Clayton loss is hard but your daughters need you-" "Loss? What do you know of Loss Miss Wade you are merely a child." He snapped not wanting to hear everything he'd done wrong. What gave her the right to talk to him like that anyway? They had just met. She nodded slightly turning to leave as she absently played with a ring on her finger She turned back towards him "I was Engaged to a wonderful man Mr. Clayton His name was Fergus O'Reilly and he was everything to me... he died on the eve of our wedding. Now this ring" she said putting her hand up and gesturing to the emerald ring "Is nothing but a broken promise of the life we were meant to share.... But you, you have Wilhelmina and Lorelei. You have a part of your wife always. You have something I would give anything for. All I have are my memories." The woman had kept her voice calm, but to him it felt as though he had been slapped in the face. No one had ever spoken to him like that before. "Miss Wade I suggest you bite your tongue if you wish to stay on as the governess." "Alright fire me, but who will watch your children? Because you certainly won't!"
