“The sky was so black I couldn't see the sun.”

“Hold still. This will need stitches.”

“Let me go and find her!”

“Edward, please be still.”

The Ember Sword Chapter Fourteen


Morning dawned with the sun's rays filtering through the sides of the tent. Isabella slept on as Edward kneeled and parted the flaps to peer outside. Storm-Heart, Doom-Hallow, Venom-Tongue, and Iron-Shadow were nearby, huddled at the top of the rise that separated them from The Forsaken. Edward stared at the back of his brother's head and hoped he would have the chance to sleep instead of going off to war. The last thing he wanted was for them to be unprepared. The confidence he once felt in his brother's ability to fight waned as the minutes before they faced the enemy drew to a close.

The Ember Sword Chapter Thirteen


As they rode, he mentally prepared for what they would face. Isabella had said the Wandering Nightmares were ethereal shadows which floated above the ground. Skull-Strike hadn’t had any luck attempting to bring them down, and he was more formidable than many of the other fighters.

Renee

The Ember Sword Chapter Twelve


Renee brought five women to Esme, who looked them over, spoke to them, and asked if they were prepared for what had been asked of them. They agreed, and Gianna, Vera, Cynthia, Bianca, and Pire joined the ranks of the sentinels. They were immediately fitted with armor and taken to the field for pell training. It was better than nothing and, with hope, the new women could become backup for the six who were well-trained. If they had eleven to defend the castle, that was at least as many as The Forsaken’s fighters. On the off chance they all made it to the citadel and the True-Sworn were not there, the sentinels would stand a chance.

Jasper and Alise

The Ember Sword Chapter Eleven


They trained harder than they ever had before. Jasper taught Alise how to use his bow, and Edward taught Isabella how to throw daggers. They each tried the mancatcher, and Esme even suggested she’d have one made for herself. If they didn't know what they were facing, they had to be prepared for anything.

Chieftess Esme

The Ember Sword Chapter Ten


“As your chieftess, I have gathered statements and evidence regarding the attempted attack on our beloved citadel.” Esme stood before her people, hands spread. “Mercenary Jane, Ensigns Marcus and Alec, and Sentinel Chelsea have been found guilty of treason.”

The Ember Sword Chapter Eight


Isabella opened her eyes to a new day, finding her husband curled around her. His naked skin pressed warm to her own, and a now-familiar fluttering began in her belly. She couldn't recall a morning when she’d woken so content and fulfilled. She now had strength, skill, and her mate.
