Rainbow Snippets: Handling himself.

Rainbow Snippets is a Facebook group for LGBTQ+ authors, readers, and bloggers to gather once a week and share six sentences from a work of fiction–a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation.

Being a sequel, In Love and Death is set directly after In Pain and Blood. Some snippets will contain spoilers of those events.

Following last week’s snippet…

The owl that had made so much noise earlier had vanished. Tracker longed for its return, for anything that would break up the slow crunch of their boots or the scrabbling of little feet scampering about the undergrowth at their passage.

He hoped the silence gave the spellster some measure of peace. There wasn’t much else he could offer out here that didn’t include distracting him with sex, and Dylan had already given his opinion on that option.

Eventually, Dylan exhaled in one drawn-out breath. The rigidity of his form relaxed, lowering his shoulders and returning the litheness to his stride. “I know it’s your duty to look after my well-being, but you don’t need to be so thorough. I can handle myself well enough.”

I’ll see you all with more from In Love and Death next week. In the meantime, check out these other snippets.
