Chapter 28 will be posted on Monday, August 8th. Chapter 29 and the Epilogue will be posted the following Monday. Chapter 28 is titled, "Secret Missions, Guns and a Heart to Heart," and the song for this chapter is "Little Lion Man," by Mumford & Sons. Chapter 29 is entitled "Heavy in your Arms," and is based off the song by Florence & The Machine of the same title. The epilogue will be simply titled "Epilogue" and the song for it is "In My Veins," by Andrew Belle.
Without further ado, the teaser you've waited six months for.
"As the doors parted on floor fifteen, I grabbed my two rolling duffles and took a few steps into the hall, glaring down the corridor with resolve. I felt like I finally figured out what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, and it didn't involve anything I thought I'd want two weeks ago. I left this loft terrified of losing everything I'd ever worked for, only to be forced to confront those fears in the most public way imaginable. And now I was coming back with a fury, like a phoenix rising from it's own ashes and hellbent on getting it's revenge. I'd overcome everything anyone had thrown at me. I'd managed to make my way out of things somewhat unscathed, if you don't count the tussle with Scotty-pants.
I passed the door for the father of two at the end of the hall and rounded the corner.
Where I promptly stopped dead in my tracks.
Somebody was slumped outside of my door. Slumped and leaning against the wall like it was the only thing holding it up.
"Hey," I heard myself say. A lump rose in my throat. "Hey - can I help you?"
I took a few unsteady steps forward, deciding to leave my bags where they were in case I needed to defend myself.
The figure stirred a little and groaned, pulling it's legs closer to it's torso as it tried to stand. It was then that I recognized the hair - a beautiful shade of bronze."
Here is the pic tease:
And the Song:
Well, thanks for sticking with me this long, and I do hope you enjoy the grand finale. Shouldn't be too much longer now. Take care. Cheers!
