#CleanWIP Lighting slashed across the sky. Emily flinched. Clint hated to scare her, but they had to go. He mounted the horse, pulling her up behind him. Bowie galloped through the night as thunder rolled. Clint prayed, silently thanking God that the Palomino knew his way home.

Lyrren is the highest rank an enlisted man can attain in this world’s military. They attended the Academy for 4 years but did not go on to become officers (an additional 2 years of study/training). I plan to finish the Turrim Archive & rapid-release the 5-book series in 2021.

“You wanna say that to my face?” Ryan barked.
“Gladly. You think you scare me?”
“Stop!” Ruby said, as forcefully as she could. “Ryan, stop.” #CleanWIP
