Thursday Thirteen - Lines from the Dragshi Chronicles

 

This Thursday Thirteen are teaser lines from the Dragshi Chronicles. More than just a man or woman, the dragshi are humans with a twinned dragon soul, able to change forms with each other at will. 

 

  1. Legend said that if you think of a man or wish for love beneath a solstice moon, your desire will be granted and you will meet your mate within a season. (Dragon Destiny)

  2. The chill stare Eirwen turned on him felt like being peeled to the core. (Dragon Destiny)

  3. His connection to Anastasia exploded into a mist of shimmering motes. (Dragon Destiny)

  4. In the short time it had taken to administer aid, a dozen men armed with pikes neared her small sanctuary.(Dragon Destiny)

  5. Thick silence changed the shadowed woods into a sepulcher. (Hatchlings Curse)

  6. An evil chortle floated over a figure chained on the wet sand below the high tide line. (Hatchlings Curse)

  7. Feather-light touches teased his senses pulling him deeper into maelstrom. (Hatchlings Curse)

  8. The berserker rage of his ancestors washed over Branin and he leaped from the saddle. (Hatchlings Curse)

    Eirwen’s stare raked Branin to the core. The sensation passed leaving Branin wondering what the lady ruler found.(Hatching's Mate)

  9. Weaving against the effect of the drugs, she kept her blade lifted. (Hatchling's Mate)

  10. The twang of their arrows release was lost in the sounds of wounded animals, but the scream of the man who windmilled in the air proved the accuracy of the strikes. (Hatchling's Mate)

  11. From the darkness just beyond the entrance, a single torch flickered into being, then another and another until a solid line of light streamed across the opening. (Hatchling's Mate)

  12. Neither the food nor the notebook awaiting the latest tale requested by the ceoltiers worked to overcome the tension in the room—and her body. (Hatchling's Mate)


I hope you enjoyed this Thursday Thirteen and that you will come back again. If any of my published titles intrigue you, click on the cover in the banner or for the series, the pull-down menu for blurbs, excerpts, a free read of the first chapter, and of course, buy links.

And of course, be sure to visit the other thirteens.
