Hey
guys! Today’s little bit of snark comes from Nighttime Dreams which is due out in November. Just a reminder:
Bryan, a good ole country boy at heart, was the sheriff from Nighttime Wishes.

Bryan
kept his eyes on both aliens. What was going on? They looked ready to square
off. “Hey, I have no intention of harming Shawn—”
“Oh,
only us?” Daroshi snapped as he turned to look at Shawn.
Zing
sliced his hand through the air trying to stop what was fast building into
another useless conversation. “Regardless—”
Bryan
gripped the knife. “He didn’t fucking
ambush my ass after I went to all the trouble of covering for you guys—”
“We couldn’t very walk
in the front door!” Daroshi hissed. “In case you didn’t notice we don’t look
human.”
“Nor did he stun me!” Bryan yelled.
“Dear gods, come on
Shawn,” Ziang muttered.
Daroshi pointed his
finger at Bryan. “You stunned my
commander first—”
“I had two big ass
aliens after me, of course I tased him! What did you expect after the way you
busted through the window? You think I was going to offer you a beer? And fuck,
my house is probably gonna burn down since I left the damn stove on!” Bryan
bellowed. “Son of a bitch, I left the damn stove on!”
The door to Medical
opened and Shawn walked inside with Blayno guarding him. He had heard most of
the conversation from outside.
“Huh, I did tell you he
wouldn’t come without a fight.” Smirking, Shawn took in the flushed faces of
Daroshi and Bryan. “Think I also warned you to disarm him.”
Daroshi threw his hands
up in the air. “Gods! Are all humans like this?”
“Only the ones half
scared out of their minds.” Shawn turned to Bryan. “How’s it hanging, dude?”
