EXCERPT
The fine hairs on the back of her neck stood to attention, as if a great and terrible evil had just neared.  A reaction usually reserved for a prince of darkness.  “What’s happening?”  
Bjorn’s tension redoubled, then redoubled again.  His breaths turned shallow.  Panic lit his eyes before he blanked his expression.  “Stay silent, no matter what you behold, hear, or smell.  Draw no attention to yourself.”
Wait.  Hold up.  Did he radiate fear
No.  No way.  This particular Sent One feared nothing.  But, as minutes bled into each other, her curiosity intensified.  Seriously, what the hell was going on?
He thinks to trick you somehow.  Whatever he tells you to do, do the opposite! 
And there was Distrust, ready to work her into a frenzy.  Fox resisted the urge to obey, instead pressing her lips together and nodding at Bjorn. 
Her ears twitched, the click-clack of high heels reverberating through the cell at a slow, steady pace.  Click.  Clack.  Click.  Clack.  One after the other. 
Tsk, tsk, tsk, Bjorn.”  A woman’s lilting voice reverberated through Fox’s cell.  “In the past hour, I’ve summoned you twice, yet here you are.” 
Summoned?  What, the bitch had snapped her fingers?  She must be his lover, then.  But why would he act so weird about a girlfriend?  And why were Fox’s nails sharpening into claws at the thought of Bjorn with some nameless, faceless female?  Foolish!
At last, the speaker strode into view, stopping directly in front of Bjorn.  Fox stared, awed.  Beautiful.  Oddly magnetic.  Angelic.  On the short side and trim, wearing an ice-blue gown made from see-through scarves.  Curly white-blond hair flowed to a trim waist, the perfect complement to her tanned skin and black-as-night eyes.  Her nails were blacker than night, and as long and sharp as Fox’s claws. 
Bjorn didn’t move, didn’t speak.  Then.  In that moment, Fox realized the truth. He did fear this woman, but mostly he raged.  Whoever she was, he hated her with the heat of a thousand suns. 
The woman walked a circle around him, tracing one of those razor-sharp nails across his chest and back.  Blood welled and dripped.  Wow.  She’d sliced his skin, and he’d let her.  Seriously, what the hell is going on?
