Guardian Excerpt

[image error]






The moment you have all been waiting for (lol, because clearly I am THAT important right?) Decided to give you all an excerpt up my upcoming book. Enjoy!
Here you meet the main character Syn.

It was early morning when she woke up sweating.  She didn't really know why but the instant her eyes adjusted to the dark room all traces of the dream she had vanished.  It was the weirdest feeling.  She typically doesn't dream so the fact that she indeed had one was a little unnerving.  Then again, she doesn't usually sleep.  Sleeping for her was more out of habit and boredom than necessity.  Her name is Syn, no last name…Just SYN as in the Seven Deadly varieties.  Syn is a vampire; at least that is what your kind, humans, would call her today.  She came from a time where they had no name and many of them were worshiped as gods and goddesses.  Today most cultures call them Vampires and well, Vampires don't need to sleep….or eat…or drink….or breathe.  Morbid, right?  Whatever, you get use to the idea after thousands of years.   

Syn rolled over, glanced at the clock, and groaned.  08:37a.m. just great. She was so not a morning person.  Come to think about it, she wasn't much of an afternoon or evening person.  Syn typically didn't like people and felt that all life is meaningless.  Living to her was so overrated.  The only reason she didn't cease to exist was because she had a job to do.  Ok, Syn knew she could sound a bit depressing but she wasn't…at least she didn't think she was.  Syn didn't really have any feelings to know.  Syn was not allowed to have feelings so she didn't feel happy, sad, or pain and really did not know if she cared that she couldn't feel.  It's a complicated situation...
