I’m sorry I have my 8 up late. Cant believe I forgot to schedule. Below I’m sharing from my upcoming novella A Warlord’s Heart which is available for preorder and releases May 13th. Mikayla’s have a bit of trouble with one of the Su-Su’s she went to see. To visit other releases by fellow authors click here www.wewriwa.com. Enjoy
Not so for Harol. The Su-Su had been rude from the moment of their arrival.
“I see the brute you joined has allowed you out. I questioned if you’d made him Su-Su in light of your birthing experience.”
Miki pushed aside her half-eaten bowl of fruit and fisted her hands in her lap beneath the table. Harol had never been a favorite neighbor and while she openly assisted any who asked for help in the running of their home, it was difficult to remain polite to the aging Raasa. His ideas tended to be outdated and his manner lofty.
“The Overlord is not a brute and my mate understands my reason for visiting my neighbors.”
Intriguing situation. I like all the the tension-filled clues you weave into this short snippet.
I tried and maybe if I wasn’t rushed getting this out I would have picked another 8?? But I like it and the scene involves a lot of secrets thanks to nasty Harol’s big mouth
Glad she stands up for herself, as much as possible in this situation. Tense! But made for an excellent excerpt…
Thank you Veronica
I’ve fisted my hands under the table too! To keep from punching someone. Great tension here!
Haven’t we all Dani? 🙂
Not completely sure what’s going on, but I know she’s showing some great restraint. Excellent “show” of tension.
Show versus tell, Jenna. I constantly have to work at it.
Su-Su? Overlord? You present a lot of things for readers to want to learn about.
Awesome Ed!
NIce! I enjoyed the first book.
Thanks Cara. It was nice visiting the characters these last few months
That’s a great snippet, but it makes me giggle because my kids call my mom their “Su Su.” This one is definitely not a granny. Lol.
LOL, just when you think you’ve made a word up. That’s the second time I’ve found that a word actually exist outside my head.
Good job showing the underlying emotions via her body language. The tension is building. 🙂 Good 8.
Definitely curious for more:)
Yes, I can see the urge to plant a facer on him. 😀
I love the tension. Great snippet
Sounds like Harol is poking his nose where it isn’t welcome;). Great snippet!
