STALKING THE OTHERS BLOG TOUR
Stop 2: Shiaās Not Happy
By Jess Haines
Hello there!Ā Jess Haines here.Ā Iām the author of the urban fantasy H&W Investigations series HUNTED BY THE OTHERS, TAKEN BY THE OTHERS,Ā DECEIVED BY THE OTHERSĀ and the upcoming STALKING THE OTHERS.
Shiarra has been having a pretty bad time of things lately. Sheās here with some of her friends (and otherwise) to tell you about it.Ā Over to you, Shia!
____________________
Sara: Youāve got a littleā¦ uhā¦ eye twitch thing going on over there.Ā You okay?
Shiarra:Ā No.
Royce:Ā Sheās been having a stressful month. Perhaps now is not the best timeā
Shiarra:Ā Untie me.
Chaz:Ā We canāt do that.Ā Youāre being unreasonable, honā
Shiarra: (*CENSORED*)
Arnold:Ā Wow.Ā I didnāt even know those words were in your vocabulary.
Shiarra:Ā (*CENSORED*)
Chaz: Babeā
Shiarra:Ā (*CENSORED*)
Chaz:Ā Honeyā
Shiarra:Ā (*CENSORED*)
Sara:Ā I feel like Iām on the Jerry Springer show.
Chaz:Ā You arenāt helping.
Royce:Ā Iād probably find this immensely entertaining if I had some ear plugs.
Arnold:Ā I can conjure up some popcorn.
Shiarra:Ā Screw you guys. Let me out of here!
Royce:Ā Perhaps if you calmed yourself, Ms. Waynest, we wouldnāt find these measures necessary.
Sara:Ā I donāt really like the vamp, but heās got a point.Ā You canāt really go around murdering and pillaging across the land.Ā That went out of style with the Vikings.
Arnold:Ā Pillaging never goes out of style.
Chaz:Ā What the hell are you talking about?
Royce:Ā I believe theyāre trying to calm the lady down. Perhaps you should take a step back before you worsen matters further, dog.
Chaz:Ā Sheās my girl.
Shiarra:Ā Like hell!
Royce:Ā Seems the lady would beg to differ.
Shiarra:Ā Iām not yours, either, fang-boy.Ā I donāt belong to anybody, and as soon as I get out of here, Iām going to destroy you both.
Royce:Ā While I do find the idea of the attempt amusing, I donāt want to see you injure yourself. Let the authorities deal with the mutt.
Chaz:Ā Shut up, worm-bait.
Arnold:Ā Not that I think Chaz is in the right here, but she doesnāt seem too happy with you, either.
Royce:Ā Yes, Iām aware of that.
Sara:Ā So?Ā Doesnāt bother you?
Royce:Ā Why should it?Ā I have an eternity to change her mind.
Shiarra:Ā Yeah, and my eternal answer is no.Ā Always and forever, no.
Royce:Ā Donāt be too sure of that, Ms. Waynest.
Arnold:Ā If you added āI have my waysā into this conversation somehow, the scary vampire image clichĆ© would be complete.
Sara:Ā Oh!Ā Oh!Ā And a little āI vant to suck your blo-o-o-o-d,ā too!
Shiarra:Ā ā¦youā¦ really arenāt helping, Sara.
Sara:Ā Sorry, but Iām pulling the best friend privileges card on this one.
Shiarra:Ā Damn it, stop making me miss you.Ā I canāt think straight when Iām hunting if Iām stuck worrying about you, too.
Sara:Ā Sucks to be you. Stop the crazy train and come back.
Royce:Ā Yes, Ms. Waynest.Ā Come back to us.Ā You know it wonāt be so terrible to return to me.Ā I can help you.
Chaz:Ā Oh, hell no.Ā Sheās not going back to you.
Shiarra:Ā (*CENSORED*) you both! I make my own decisions now.Ā Right now, my plans definitely do not include either of you, other than showing you the pointy end of a stake.
Arnold:Ā Since when did you turn into the Chosen One?
Shiarra:Ā ā¦what?
Arnold:Ā You know.Ā The Slayer.Ā Buffy.Ā Must stake all evil, soulless vampires.Ā That sort of thing.
Shiarra:Ā Iām not even going to dignify that with an answer.
Sara:Ā What about me?Ā You left me in the lurch. Parked alone with the vampire, no less.
Shiarra:Ā Iām really sorry. Iāll explain it to you when we have a moment alone.
Royce:Ā Oh, I donāt think so.Ā Iām quite interested in hearing your explanation for your behavior as well.
Shiarra:Ā Bite me.
Arnold:Ā Very poor choice of words, there.
Shiarra:Ā ā¦err.
Chaz:Ā I wonāt let him touch you.
Shiarra:Ā You know what?Ā No.Ā I wonāt let him touch me.
Chaz: Ha!
Shiarra:Ā And neither will you.Ā Never again.
Chaz:Ā ā¦(*CENSORED*)
