Book Excerpt
Theno had him pinned beneath
the full weight of his body but he was still smiling. "Who are you?"
"Someone from your
past, that came from the same place you did."
"You know me?"
"More than you
do."
If this person knew who he
was it would be better to keep him alive. That didn't mean Theno wanted him
anywhere near the girls. When Theno tried to drag the man up, he managed to
slip out of his grasp and hit him hard against the floor. It was enough to make
Theno stop to catch his breath.
"Still feeling hungry
for her, old friend?" The man said, "She is a fascinating creature.
Like a butterfly. You know what happens to butterflies that are handled to
roughly."
"I won't let you hurt
her." Theno clenched his fists, turning to glare at him.
"It's not me you should
worry about. You don't know what kind of damage you have caused, so you don't
know how dangerous you are to them." He let his smile slip a moment.
"There is no such thing as a gentle troll."
Without knowing who he was,
Theno couldn't be sure if that was the truth. His imagination brought up one
possibility after another, each darker and more disgusting than the last. The
things he saw were horrible, but the things he felt was worse. He might have
enjoyed the sickness in his old life, reveled in the misery. He could be a
monster.
"You are a liar. You
have come here to trick me."
"My friend." The
intruder extended a hand and a smile to him. "I could help you remember
who you are. Give you all the details you want in exchange for the location of
the door."
They were not friends, they
could not be. He could not be the same as such a creature. "No, you do not
know me. This is just another trick."
"Don't you remember the
good times we had? The fun?" He stepped back a few steps and shrugged.
"I guess not, but we could create new fun here. There are more than enough
of them to share."
