This scene captures the tension of that awakening, a glimpse into the infinite questions that drive the larger story, and reveals unsettling and worrying truths. It is taken from the introduction of a novel I'm writing about a man named Slade, who begins to question the very nature of his reality. In the quiet of a lab, his thoughts spiral outward, where what he sees, what he knows, and what he believes now all feel fragile, incomplete, as if the world itself is only a fragment of something far larger. Unknowingly, he is being observed by a silent watcher whose own existence hints at layers of reality stretching beyond the human eye. Where did this watcher come from? Another world? Another universe? Only one way to find out...

(COMPLETED | UNDER EDITING) Fresh out of college, Veronica Odair is hired as a forensic scientist at the infamous B.E.A.R. Laboratories.

What secrets are B.E.A.R. Laboratories hiding? Veronica plans to find out. ▪▪▪ Brown eyes, nearly obscured by rich locks of dark hair, stare into my light green ones with an intensity which nearly causes my knees to wobble. I can hear nothing but the thudding of my heart beating wildly in my chest, the sounds of the sirens turning into white noise at the back of my mind. I back up until my spine connects with the elevator doors. I shiver as my bare arms come in contact with the cool metal. "Someone help me, please," I beg. The man stalks closer still. His eyes are fixed solely on me, unmoving, intense. His fists are clutched tightly against his sides, as though restraining himself in some way. Restraining himself from what, I don't want to know. The man stops only an arm's length away from me. I stare up at him with wide eyes, my lips parted in fear. I stand frozen, unable to move. I shut my eyes, turning my head away. Laboured breathing, the touch of fingertips on my bare shoulder, breath on my lips. A heavy, deep inhale. Slow exhale. A forehead against mine, shaky hands cupping the back of my neck, fingertips sliding into my red locks. My eyes open to meet the warmest pair of honey eyes. Cover by AnnaCharles16 #4 in ROMANCE?
