Ethereal: An Illumine Series Novella (The Illumine Series) - Plot & Excerpts
Some times it was the skimming of a fingertip while chopping tomatoes for dinner. Other times, the cut was more sinister.This time was no different; posed between two high-brick walls to a pair of neighboring brownstones, Rinae was backed into a corner. Literally. Rinae swore, light and high-pitched under her breath. Of course, the one time she decided to cut corners and take a shortcut to get home, not only did she get lost, but now she was held at knife point by a pack of teenage brats.Groups of three, Jake would repeat to her and the rest of the crew, that’s the way to be. Take an alley alone, you’ll wish you owned a phone.Dammit. Jake was going to kick her ass when she got home. Word traveled fast among the underground kids, especially when it came to a fight. And right now it wasn’t looking good; Rinae was clearly outnumbered three to one. The skinniest of the bunch led the group, his pale skin clinging to his bones as if he hadn’t seen a cheeseburger except on billboards.
