Rainbow Snippets: Hiding a slaughter…

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…

How had they all wound up dead? That so many had chosen to travel together was strange enough. And so close to the spellster tower. Had the mistress sent several of the pack to collect fresh victims for the army?

What sort of force had managed to overpower and slaughter eight fully-trained hounds? The same one that had attacked the spellster tower? It was possible. Talfaltaners held almost the same distaste for hounds as they did towards spellsters.

But why go to the trouble of dumping the bodies here? He doubted anyone who came upon them on the roadside would’ve been able to warn the tower in time. Who did they hide this slaughter from?

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