A loud noise boomed and wood split in the living room. It sounded as if someone had kicked down the front door. She grabbed Justice’s hand to shove over his injury.
“Press here, hold it tight and don’t move. I love you.”
She grabbed the empty gun and reached into her shirt. Her hand smeared Justice’s blood all over her vest, shirt and breasts as she yanked out the clip. She slammed it into the empty chamber as she rose to her feet. She gripped both guns in her fists and spread her feed apart to plant them on both sides of Justice’s hips.
It was a bad place to be as far as tactical advantages went. Windows were all around them–a huge glass slider and the open archway that led to the living room. There was no cover. Justice was too heavy and too hurt to move. The fifth male would strike and she hoped he’d come from the archway since that’s where she’d heard the house breached.
Her eyes scanned the room frantically.–Justice by Laurann Dohner
Hmm, never even heard of the author. I’ll have to check it out though! Also, good luck on your NaNoWriMo project!
Thanks Paige! I’m so far behind in NaNoWriMo that it’ll take a miracle for me to finish. I’m going to try though. This New Species series written by Dohner is very much like Leigh’s Breeds. I’m a sucker for the super alpha animal men though. 🙂
