fiesty female characters and fiery wip features

Jun 18, 2021 4:11 pm

The library is killing me with these insanely long wait times between books, so I've been stuck rereading a few of my favorites. Which, of course, feature some incredible women with magic and strength and ass-kicking power. I've dropped a fun WIP look below with a fiesty female of my own making.

WIP - The Curse of Broken Shadows

Here's a snippet of Cason watching Brela spar with Elias. Followed by the meme of Brela's reaction to seeing Cason's fire ink for the first time.


Somehow in that dance, she pulled her attention away from Elias and caught Cason’s eyes, and just like they had stared across the fire on the trip to Aelstow, he didn’t back down from that gaze.

Her eyes widened, eyebrows lifting in surprise.

Then, against all odds, she broke the stare first. Her eyes dropped to his chest — his heavily inked and very visible chest — and he shivered. He actually shivered under her stare, especially as her tongue darted over her lips.

Cason had imagined two different outcomes of this moment while he was running. The first was that Brela would be horrified of the fire ink scrawled over his skin. The second was that she’d be impressed, but impassive.

Never would he have expected her to do… that. The tongue, the small bite of her lip, the gods-damned heat that flooded her body in an instant.

Shit. Just… shit.

Same, Brela. Same.
