She called out to him through time and space…an impossible
dream…a hopeful imagining. Having heard her plea, he would not stop until he’d
claimed her.
Mavim snacked only when his body absolutely demanded it. And
then only quickly, in the dark, with such a sense of revulsion he could barely
keep the blood from boiling back up and spewing out on his shoes.
Always when he fed, he would see her
face. So pale, so perfect. It was his undoing. For Mavim, no other female would
do. None could take her place.
So he suspected he would simply fade away over time, as was
the Sangui way of dying. And be launched into the sky for his final journey to
Maja, protector of souls. Then his pain would finally end.
The comm unit spat sparks and sound flared briefly from it.
Mavim’s head snapped up in surprise and crashed against the underside of the
console. He swore in several intergalactic languages and pushed out from under
the console, grabbing his tools as he moved into the open.And even more keenly aware of those who hadn’t managed to escape.
The lights on the comm flared to life and a blurry figure
appeared briefly before snapping into blackness again.
It had spun too quickly through the visual cogs within the
unit to be recognizable, but Mavim had been able to tell it was a woman.
Lights flared again. The same shape, slightly clearer this
time, exploded onto the screen. “Mav...” Renegade star spikes ate the rest of
the transmission, turning the words she spoke to a garbled mash. But Mavim had
heard enough to make his pulse jump. He dropped his tools and slammed a hand
over the comm, quickly adjusting levers until the image he’d seen flashed past
again and then snapping a lock on the transmission before it could fitz away.
The pale oval staring back at him was marred by filth. The
rich mahogany brown of her curls lank with oil. But the lush, cranberry lips
were unmistakable.
The soft lilt of her bedroom voice distinctive.
Mavim had heard it every night in his dreams since he’d
risked life and future to place her mangled form inside a burial capsule and
send her on her final passage to Maja.
“Mav… Help… Gleschutions have tak…”
And there the transmission faded away, leaving behind only
the terrified gaze of the woman he loved above all else. And the horrifying
realization that she was in danger. And that she’d risked everything to try to
get word to him.
Mavim touched the screen, tracing it with a shaky finger as
tears slipped hot and unnoticed down his cheeks.
Blood tears.
Tears of deep, unending agony.
Then the comm blinked out again and her visage was ripped
from his sight. Mavim threw back his head and roared, mad with the agony of her
loss. Yet again.Amazon.ca: http://www.amazon.ca/Mavim-Sci-Fi-Paranormal-Romance-Sangui-ebook/dp/B00X51A8IK/?tag=wwwsamcheev0d-20
