After The Fire (After The Fire: Book The First) - Plot & Excerpts
Murray, All Rights Reserved Chapter Ten Fin crouched down, his hands on the earth. He felt the power slide from deep in his chest, through his arms and through the palms of his hands. He loved the feel of the ground bursting with life beneath him, that, were it not for him, would have taken years to reach maturity. He watched the sapling sprout up between his hands. It rose into the air, gaining girth as it went, branches fanning out above him like a shelter. Fin sat back and admired his handiwork. The truth was that this forest didn't need him. It had fared far better after the fire than anywhere else he had been, except for the North. It seemed relatively untouched here. Oddly, it made Fin long to be somewhere else, anywhere that needed him to fix things. He felt useless here, where all he did was sit with unnaturals and pretend that their families weren't starving. Although, he had to admit, it had been extremely satisfying to watch Eleni frighten them into submission. Now there was a reason to stay: Eleni.
