#8Sunday: Expected to take his place ~ Excerpt from BRYCE #scifirom #sfrb #romance
Welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!
In last week’s excerpt from BRYCE, you found out that Bryce did not want anyone to find out he is Katrina’s father. And as Ed predicted, that did cause some complications between him and his daughter. I’m skipping ahead in the story to give you an explanation as to why he doesn’t want anyone to find out…
He stood and pulled Lalia into his arms, kissing her forehead. “As much as I would love to, I can’t. I have my own duty to the Galactic Defenders. If I apply for retirement, and the Alliance finds out I have a child, they will expect Katrina to take my place. She’ll be taken from me before I have a chance to get to know her.”
The weight of his words pressed on her chest. She hadn’t realized the commitment Defenders made when they joined, thought her life on Hemera the worst. Holding him close, she glanced up at him. “So, what do we do now?” The happy ending she’d hoped for upon seeing him again wouldn’t happen so easily.
BRYCE: Galactic Defenders Book One
A dedicated Defender…

A second chance?
