Okay, this snippet is the very beginning of chapter two. Tell me what you think. ;D
A Corps Perdu
Chapter 2: Alone to dim
A pleasant yet nagging melody that Rufina was all too familiar with for killing her slumber met her ears. Her alarm. Rolling over, she saw that like always, Jhase hadn’t stirred one bit, and for a second, it felt like nothing had changed at all. It felt like today was just another day, and it would be just another routine. Oh, how she wished, she thought, reaching over to turn the melody off.
Five AM.
She sat on the edge of the bed, wasting away about five minutes in deep thought, looking back to see the Sepoixan’s large frame take one steady breath after another. On the outside, no one could even tell he wasn’t human… he looked just like anyone else, but maybe considerably larger. On the outside, he was just like everyone else, two eyes, a nose, a mouth, thin skin… but on the inside, he was definitely something else.
