Shadow Assassins (The Second Realm Trilogy) - Plot & Excerpts
The simple rocking motion comforted Kaydee, like a baby being held in her mother's arms. The rocking motion was much better than what she remembered happening to her, what she would have to face when— What... –when she woke up. Kaydee's eyes snapped open. The rocking motion was still there, but this time, she understood it. She was on a boat. She had to be; there was no other way to explain the motion and the great roaring of the water outside of the small wooden structure she was cramped in. Her eyes adjusted to the dim lighting of hanging lanterns. The lanterns swung in a nauseating motion from their hooks against the wall, swaying with the motion of the vessel they were in. Around her were the same people she had been chained to, the “winners” of that obscene fight they all had to do. With the man who had bought them absent from the room, some of the people sobbed openly out of fear. Their fear bit into her with rank, sharp claws.
