Rainbow Snippets: All that is associated

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 the previous snippet where Dylan recalls seeing no sign of the tower’s many cats…

“Dylan?” The hound’s concern sat thickly in his voice. “Are you all right?”

He jerked his head up, the sword instantly dipping to graze the ground. “Did you see any cats back in the tower?”

Tracker shook his head, his gaze not leaving the sword. Did he regret handing the weapon over? “They likely fled during the attack.”

“Are you sure? I thought you said Talfaltaners kill anything they believed was associated with a spellster.” They had culled the messenger pigeons and those poor birds had done nothing but sit in their cages. Cats weren’t seen as anything special about the tower, no more so than any mouser would be to a dense population, but he’d no idea how other realms saw the animals.

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