Eternity (Descendants of Ra: Book 1)

He slammed back to the same spot beside the medical facility, except Alexis stood over him. Her chin tilted and a breeze brushed the hair off her shoulders. He reached for her, but she and Mrs. Kelly walked through him.
Confused, he climbed to his feet and watched their retreating backs. Why did he return to this spot? The beast must be near and its pull was keeping him here. Had it come back for him or Alexis? He searched the area and then followed the women. Staying to the side, he watched their conveyance until it turned a corner.
He’d moved a few steps when the Vanquished dropped him to his knees. Their tortured screams ricocheted inside his skull and tore his sanity apart. Against his will, his atoms shifted and he flashed into the rear seat behind Alexis.
“Did you turn the air on? ‘Cause it’s freezing in here.” Alexis hugged herself.
“It has turned chilly.” Mrs. Kelly fiddled with some knobs. “The heat’s on. It’ll warm up soon.”
Damnation. It wasn’t the beast that kept pulling him back. It was Alexis.
About The Author
Tmonique Stephens
I wrote my first novel about a reporter and a hockey player after the U.S. hockey team won gold in the 1980 Olympics. I love writing flawed characters who reflect the emotional baggage we all carry. I write complicated stories for complicated people. Paranormal romances and fantasy novels are my favorite genre. I’ll read anything about fairies, demons, or angels, but I also enjoy Stephen King and Preston and Childs.
I’m hooked on The Blacklist, Blindspot, The Strain, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Vikings, and Lucifer. I can’t get enough of these shows!
I was born in St. Thomas USVI, but grew up in The Bronx, New York one mile from Yankee Stadium. I love SyFy, the History channels, and Asian cuisine. But my heart and stomach longs for anything from the Caribbean.
