An SNEAK PEEK excerpt from Davin's Quest. This is in raw, unedited form, so keep that in mind. Davin saw her first from afar and his heart nearly stopped. She was petite, as most Breed women were when compared to the females of his species, but she was like a breath of spring to his starving senses. She was laughing, playing with a small four-legged creature inside a fenced area. Davin recalled that these creatures were called horses and this one had to be just a baby, judging from its wobbly legs and the larger version of itself that hovered some yards distant, watching attentively. But it was the Breed girl who caught his attention. She was so full of life and emotion, her happiness shining in her eyes as she played with the baby creature, coaxing it and crooning to it. Her voice was a thing of beauty. Of course it wasn't the musical tones of his own race, but instead the slightly deeper, sexy human tones that made his blood hot with desire as her soft murmurs reached his sensitive ears. He was so absorbed watching the small woman in the paddock below, he didn't hear the two men who came up behind him. He didn't even know they were there until a cold metal barrel made startling contact with his temple and a low voice breathed a warning. "Don't move," the taller of the two said, deadly menace clear in his voice. "I won't. Just don't shoot. I'm not what you think." "And what's that?" the other man asked, watching him with observant eyes. "I'm not part of the research team. I'm not like them at all." "So what are you doing out here, watching our valley?" The first man asked. "They promised we'd be undisturbed as long as we cooperated, which we are doing -- fully. What's your story?" Copyright (c) 2008 by Bianca D'Arc. All Rights Reserved.
