Hello!
Happy Easter to
those who celebrate.
Lovely week in TV. Arrow had a rockin' episode. I love it
when Oliver doesn't get things right and makes huge mistakes. S.H.I.E.L.D also had another awesome
episode. I'm really looking forward to seeing how they end this season. Also? Orphan Black returned!! I love this show
SO MUCH!!
And seriously? What
an opening episode. I have sooooo many theories and I can't wait to see if I'm
on track or totally off the rails. LOL The writing never fails to keep me
coming back for more and the acting just blows my mind. If you're not watching
this, you should be. J
Tonight's post is
from Not Again, a hurts so good novella.
Here's the tagline:
Drue Braddock and Xeno
Howlett have a rocky relationship, but when Drue goes off on one of her many
soul searching quests, Xeno decides he's had enough. When Drue returns, she
finally knows what she wants—Xeno—but she may not get her chance because he's
got someone new in his life.
And a preview snippet…
Xeno propped his shoulder against
the jamb, blocking Drue's entrance.
She lifted a brow. "What the
hell, Xeno? I had a long trip back. Let me in."
Xeno's head jerked back and
forth. "Don't think so, Drue. Not again." He crossed his arms over
his chest. "Say what you need to say and leave."
She jabbed a finger into the soft
spot under his collarbone. "I've got a lot to say and I'm not doing it
from the hallway." She leaned in closer. "Half the place belongs to
me, Xeno."
He snorted, then straightened.
"Not anymore, Drue." He stepped back and directed her in with a wave
of his arm. "But sure, barge right on in."
She crossed the threshold and
stopped dead in her tracks when her gaze automatically went to the bedroom she
shared with Xeno.
A low growl emanated from deep
within her chest, the only indication she'd ever give of the pain ripping its
way through her. She gave Xeno a sideways glance, turned on her heel and
stomped over to the door, slamming it shut.
Wheeling around, she snarled.
"You have exactly ten seconds to get Lydia's ass out of my bed."
Xeno shot back. "It's not your bed anymore, Drue. And it won't be
again." He crossed the floor in three strides and opened the heavy oak.
"Your stuff is in storage." He reached over and snagged a key from
the console table by the door. "You can pick it up whenever you
want." A tag dangled with the name of the location and a number. "I
think we're done here. Don't come back again."
With little choice—for the
moment—Drue accepted the key. She swallowed a stream of expletives and exited Xeno's apartment. When the door slammed
shut behind her, she squared her shoulders and walked toward the bank of
elevators.
Once she hit the call button, she
sucked in a determined breath. "We are nowhere close to being done, Xeno.
I will be back… again."
Poor Lydia might
want to duck and run while she can. :D
That's it for this
week.
Cheers!
Skye
