EXCERPT FROM MY UPCOMING STORY, The Shadow Side!
A LOUD, GRISLY SOUND WAS HEARD AS THE DEMON LURCHED FORWARD, its weird mix of gangly and muscular arms reaching for the woman in front of it.
The woman dodged quickly before it can grab her. She swirled her sword to make it face the demon. And before it can act, her sword collided with the demon’s neck, slashing it, moving across. And soon then, the demon’s head was evaporating on the ground.
The woman sighed, fishing out a towel in one of her pockets, she cleaned her sword. Once it was cleaned, she stuffed the towel back, her free arm still tightly clutching her sword.
“I could say,” a familiar male voice behind her says, “That was quite impressive.”
She turned around, her lips tugging into a smile as her eyes detected a familiar tall, pale man with light blonde hair and piercing green eyes.
“Jonathan,” she said, her voice quite astonished but was overwhelming with joy. “What brings a charming man here at a dangerous place?”
“To see you,” he spoke, his voice was gentle, full of affection. Jonathan stepped closer to the woman, his height towering her. “Tell me, Cordelia. Why are you out here?”
“As what my usual excuse goes, just leisurely killing evil demons.” Cordelia grinned, putting her sword back on her holster.
