Excerpt

EXCERPT FROM PENDRAGON RISES

Long after the girls had left to attend to their afternoon tasks—sewing and spinning and weaving lessons could be taught by any competent woman—Anwen remained in her room and read.  She had few books, for they were difficult to find and expensive to acquire.  The few she did have, she cherished.  She read them often, but only in the privacy of her room where no one would see her doing it.  It was another reason she was grateful for the room and the door that kept out the rest of the world when she needed it to.

She knew she was reading in order to stop herself from thinking.  She didn’t want to deal with the wounded soldier, even in her thoughts.  She had no experience dealing with men, especially not angry men.  All her life had been spent among women.

The alert of the sentry on the tower over the gate forced Anwen to put aside the book.  She rose and moved to the window.  It was a narrow aperture, but low enough for her to see into the yard, to learn who was about to arrive.

Three guards pulled open the heavy wood and iron gates, just in time to allow entry to five men on horses.  They thundered into the yard, their cloaks flying and pennants flapping.   More of the Duke’s men from Dimilioc, Anwen guessed.  They were all large and strong.

The horses halted, breathing hard.  Slaves ran to gather their bridles and contain them as the men jumped to the ground.

As the horses were led away, the men removed riding gauntlets, talking among themselves.  One gave a soft call, halting the slaves.  He moved over to the horses and lifted a long wooden shaft that had been strapped to the horse’s side.

A staff.

He carried the staff over to the group of soldiers and held it out.

The man who took it was the tallest of the group.  His hand thrust out, then moved sideways until his palm smacked against the staff and he gripped it.  This, then, was Steffan.

Anwen pressed her hand to her chest as her heart jumped.  She had expected a blind man to look…well, blind.  The only other blind person she had ever met was an old woman, whose eyes were milky and skinned with growth that blocked her vision.  She had been a wretched creature, shuffling about with her hands out, when she dared move off her stool at all.

Steffan, though, was identical to the other men in dress and manner.  He had ridden the horse as if he could see.  Had he allowed the horse to find its own way, then?   He had thick dark hair, as most Britons did.  It was unruly, though, with waves and locks that did not lie against his head.  His fair skin was tanned as men generally were.  His nose was straight, his brows thick and his jaw very square.  The chin was strong, too.  His neck was thick and strong.

There was nothing wrong with his eyes as far as Anwen could tell.  They looked perfectly normal, although she was too far away to determine their color.  He was even turning his head as if he was looking about the yard.  Was he listening, instead?

He turned so his gaze—if he could see—was upon the tower itself.  For a moment it seemed he was looking directly at Anwen, where she stood behind the window.

She stepped back, her heart leaping and her breath shortening.  Fright tore through her.

How could she contain a powerful man like that, when a whole fort of soldiers could not?

It takes me back to the magic I felt when reading Mary Stewart’s stories of Merlin. Tracy Cooper-Posey has written another winner!

 

[/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name=”Amazon Reader” avatar=”female” image=”” image_border_radius=”” company=”” link=”” target=”_self”]

Tracy Cooper Posey is brilliant at weaving stories with individuals that are completely believable in their thoughts and dialogue.

I also love the fact that her female characters are definitely not boring, whiny or TSTL.

She is invisible to everyone but the blind man…

Anwen is the least favored companion to Lady Igraine, the Duchess of Cornwall.  No man will marry her, for she is old and plain. Instead, she teaches Igraine’s children to read.

Steffan of Durnovaria was once a celebrated warrior in the Duke of Cornwall’s army, a friend to Prince Uther, the High King’s brother, and destined for greatness, until a Saxon war hammer stole his sight and destroyed his life.

To deflect Steffan’s anger from the warriors around him, Igraine directs him to help Anwen teach her daughters.  The assignment brings him no happiness and terrifies Anwen, who has never spoken to a man directly in her life.

When the new High King, Uther, meets Igraine for the first time and becomes obsessed with her, Anwen and Steffan are drawn into a web of lies and deceit that could destroy Britain’s fragile peace.

This novel is part of the ancient historical romance series, Once and Future Hearts, set in Britain during the time of King Arthur.
