Eternal Endings Teaser

It's Tuesday, and I've actually remembered that it's Tuesday, so I have a teaser prepared for today! I know a lot of people are looking for a Bragden teaser, but I still don't have enough written in his section to give one yet. I spent the past few days writing Emma's section and I'm almost done with hers. Her section is a little spoiler-y, so I'm not going to give a teaser from her perspective just yet. 

Last week, I got a few requests for a Colton teaser, so here is a small second from his POV:

(For anyone who knows the timeline of the Prophesized Series, this section is a few months after the events in Reaching Retribution. It'll be toward the end of Eternal Endings.)

I glance over my shoulder and whistle for Ryanne to keep up. She’s so easily distracted when it snows. Looking away from the snow covered shop, she runs to catch up, and when her light giggle hits me, I can’t help but smile. Her laughter turns into a squeal when she slips on a patch of ice. Her feet slide atop of the slick surface, back and forth, before she starts going down. However,  she’s close enough to me now that I easily reach out and wrap an arm around her waist and spin her into my side before she falls. Her small gloved hands fist into the unbuttoned edges of my coat as she tries to regain her balance, and the giggle starts all over again. 

“Still so graceful,” I tell her.

“I try,” she says through her laughter and meets my gaze. “I try.”

“I’d work on it a little more if I were you,” I mumble before loosening my grip on her. She releases my coat, but doesn’t step away until she’s positive she won’t fall.

“Maybe I do it on purpose,” she grins as she starts walking again. “I like having a big strong man catch me.”

With a look over her shoulder, she winks and skips ahead.

Just because I love cat gifs. You're welcome.
