What secrets will the Spiral reveal? #2 Spiral Defenders series by Erin
Danzer
After Ronnie follows Gavin into the Spiral, she finds out getting the answers she is looking for isn’t as easy as she thought.
Some secrets are kept. A secret love affair comes to light. New abilities are revealed. Ronnie finds she has enemies before she makes new friends. She falls harder for Gavin, but is betrothed to another, a betrothal that will not be broken even after she and Gavin form a sacred bond.
As turmoil rises within the Spiral, Ronnie learns the truth about her enemy. She must fight to become a Spiral Defender and queen of her new home—or risk that home spiraling into nothing.
Excerpt:
Ronnie screamed. The monster had to be at least seven feet
tall and was made up entirely of swirling shadows. Its form was vaguely human
and where its eyes should have been, bright white lights shone out into the
darkness. A long, scaly tail swished behind it as it came right for them. Gavin
pushed Ronnie behind him as he readied his sword and Ronnie knew they were
going to have to fight this thing together. She pushed down the panic that
tried to overcome her and raised her sword as well. She wasn’t about to let
Gavin face this thing alone.
“Stay back,” Gavin yelled when he saw her sword raised.
Ronnie glared at him.
“You can’t fight that thing on your own,” she argued.
“No, you can’t fight that thing, period. Let me take care of
it.”
“No.” She raised the sword over her head and ran towards the
monster, calling out the sword’s name like a battle cry as she ran. She vaguely
realized Gavin was next to her again as her sword, the blade now glowing with a
bright whiteness, carved through the shadow demon’s chest. Smoke sizzled where
the cut had formed and the demon screamed as it reached out for her, only to
have its arm taken off by Gavin’s sword. Ronnie blinked in the brightness of
her sword’s blade and felt a little guilty at the reprimanding glare Gavin
spared her before he faced the demon again. He swung his sword around at its
neck and shouted “Vitae Luminae!” as he dispatched its head from its shoulders.
The thing reached out blindly, still trying to fight even as it dissolved in
front of them. Gavin held out his arm to keep Ronnie back until it was
completely gone. He rounded on her the minute it disappeared, his dark eyes
blazing as he reached out and grabbed Ronnie’s sword out of her hand.
“Hey,” she protested indignantly. “It’s not like I didn’t do
any damage with that. I took care of a shadow hound all on my own.”
He continued to glare at her, apparently too upset for
words. Finally, he ground out, “No more swords until you learn to
listen.”
