Excerpt
Larissa donned her coat,
grabbed a shopping sack and headed onto the crowded streets. It was dark, early
evening, and the sidewalks were still packed. She couldn’t help but think about
Garrick’s warning about the towpath and ghost. It was a short cut to the store
and she didn’t want to leave Jordan alone for long. Not that she didn’t trust
Jordan, but she was new and might not be able to answer a customer’s question.
As she stood by the entrance of the path, two joggers ran across the parking
lot and onto the towpath. See? If it was safe enough for them, why not her?
Deciding to ignore
Garrick’s warning, she followed the joggers
and speed–walked toward the bridge. The trail was peaceful, a great
place to jog and not so isolated that she felt unsafe. The sounds of traffic
and Christmas music in the distance comforted her. The joggers passed the
bridge and were out of sight. Stuffing her hands in her coat pocket, she
hurried along the grassy path.
Under the bridge, she
rushed up the steps leading to the street. Her hands shook when she entered the
small grocery store. She refused to get spooked by superstitions. She picked up
coffee, milk, yogurt and fresh berries. The fruit was way over priced for this
time of year but she needed a taste of summer. Then she stopped at the wine
store for a bottle of merlot. She hoped by inviting Jordan for dinner, she
might find out what she knew about the town and its mysterious people like
Garrick, Ramon and Kashia. On the way home, she took the canal towpath again,
refusing to allow a legend to spook her.
Something tugged on her
hair and she jumped, almost dropping her shopping sack. Laughing, she gripped
onto her bag and marched under the bridge. She was scaring herself for no
reason.
This time a shadow
crossed her path.
“You will be my crimson
slave,” a man’s voice whispered close to her ear. She felt his breath, felt the
touch of his hand on her shoulder. Crying out, Larissa spun around but no one
was there.
She glanced up and down
the path and saw no one running away. To one side was a wall leading up to the
bridge. Even a tall person couldn’t leap to the top. The only other way off the
path was to jump into the canal. She would’ve heard a splash if the man was
crazy enough to do that in this weather. Was it the ghost, or something else?
Her body chilled then
flashed with heat. A shiver raised goose bumps over her skin. If it was a ghost
then she had nothing to fear. A ghost couldn’t harm her, only frighten her if
she let it.
The shadow and a breeze
sped passed her and Larissa was slammed against the cold stone wall. All the
air rushed out of her lungs and she gasped for a breath to scream.
The weight of a muscular
body pressed her against the wall as hands moved up her hips and waist. Oh God,
she was going to be raped or murdered or both. With all her strength she tried
to kick, tried to swing her arms to fight, but she was paralyzed.
Her pulse thundered in
her head. Finally she found the courage to open her eyes and face her attacker.
The Goth guy who was on her balcony. “You.”
“Yes, little one. I’m
claiming you. Taking what’s rightfully mine.” His scorching gaze moved down her
length, kicking up her heartbeat and heating her skin. Despite the violence,
she felt woozy, sensually achy, his touch tempting. Her head leaned back and
rested against the stone, the fight and fear being replaced by erotic desire.
What was wrong with her?
“What are you doing?” she murmured.
“Wait and see.” His
booted foot shoved her feet apart. A muscular thigh eased between her legs. The
buttons of her coat opened and cold air chilled her body. Fear rose to the
surface again. She shuddered as his mouth glided over her neck, teeth scraping
her skin. “This might hurt a little. It’ll be over quick,” he said.
