#Excerpt: KINETIC by S.K. Anthony

Synopsis:

Being strong is one thing. Being an
unlimited source of power is quite another.



Genetically altered by the Organization, Annie Fox takes down criminals CIA-style
with her luminary strength. With nothing to mend but her broken
heart, she is relentlessly pursued by her boss Derek Lake. Just when Annie
is about to give him a chance, her ex-husband unexpectedly comes out
of hiding.



A wanted man, Nick Logan is a cold-hearted murderer who is considered enemy
number one, and orders are clear: kill on contact. He is more powerful
than ever and threatens the lives of those she holds most dear. His plan?
Get his hands on Annie and use her Kinetic energy to destroy them
all. When Annie finds herself with an opportunity to end him, she pauses,
horrified by the scars covering the face she once loved. A split second
that will cost her everything…

EXCERPT:

I knew what I had to do. Orders were clear… KILL ON
CONTACT.

The thing is, it was Nick.

Before I knew what I was doing, I'd released my hold.
He got up and rubbed his mouth.




 “What
did I tell you about giving second chances?”




 “You won’t
hurt me,” I said.




“Honey, you are so wrong! I wouldn’t even blink an
eye, no pun intended,” he smiled. “Next time you won’t be so lucky. If you ever
get the chance again, take it.” He shoved me down and gave me a hard kick in
the ass. He started to leave but turned instead, his smile still plastered
across his scarred face. “If you can.”




I watched him leave and took a deep breath. I had to give
this some thought. I wondered if there was any excuse I could come up with that
the Organization would believe. I was going to be in so much trouble. And it
was possible they would even strip my abilities away. Although my job could be
mentally exhausting, I knew that, deep down, I couldn’t give up what made me,
me. I was a badass, I liked using my extensive training to bring down the bad
guys of the world, and what had I just done? I'd let the worst of them walk
away. I came into this Organization to serve a purpose, and I had never
regretted it. Until now.




Nick had taken advantage of all the knowledge he’d
gained when he was part of the Org. He was guilty of kidnapping, attacking
government buildings, killing a lot of people, and was considered enemy number
one for all Luminaries. But while I had no respect left for him, I couldn’t
hate him. Not like the rest of them did. This was the man with whom I had
exchanged wedding vows, the man who was once my whole world, and he had to be
taken down. But he still had enough power over me that I'd let him go. Stupid heart. I never wanted to be one
of those girls again, the ones who live for love or die for it. No, love no
longer had any place in my empty chest.




The problem was, I'd found
my heart staring at me through one eye, and I'd lost my shit.

One day, I
hope you know this.”
