She sat like a soldier still on patrol. Relaxed by training but still coiled to respond to a threat with speed and decisiveness. It was in her eyes and it was unmistakable.
“You were a soldier?” He asked at last.
“Yes, For a time.” Was all she would say.
“It looks like you still are.”
The release is getting close for the second book in the Paladin’s Way series. It’s been such a wonderful journey. I’ve also had help from some super talented people that I hope to introduce at a later time.
I want to share some preview material so here’s the first installment.
Gib felt a slight itch in the center of his back and he knew the Marine in the Camos had already decided where to put the round from the M-16 if it became necessary. He carried it with a familiarity that came from a great deal of time with the weapon. Gib had seen in the young marine’s eyes that he might not want to shoot either of them, but if it came to it he would not hesitate. As much as Gib appreciated the young man’s sincerity, it didn’t do a thing to diminish the itch.

” And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back”.
From The Road Not Taken, By Robert Frost.
It’s a fearful and wondrous thing how our lives are sometimes nudged by events and the actions of others to put us here. Take the day and believe in something good. Give life a chance and let yourself be amazing.
It’s there around the turn. Just waiting.
Be well,
Lee
