Rainbow Snippets: Overly cautious?

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 on from last week’s snippet…

She offered no explanation. No warning of what might lie ahead. Her sole gesture was to ensure he stayed close and didn’t dawdle.

Only when their camp was out of sight did she signal for him to halt.

He obeyed. He knew the woman well enough to admire her caution, but he couldn’t tell if she was being overly so. She carried no hint of encountering anything dangerous, but concern vibrated through her every movement.

I’ll be back with more from In Love and Death next weekend. In the meantime, check out these other snippets.
