TIED (FireBorn1) #TeaserTenth

*************
Today I’m sharing lines from TIED, the first installment in the Fire Born trilogy, published September 2013.
My gaze fell on a figure standing beyond the dunes edge, a shadow hidden within the darkness. My pulse quickened, but I didn’t move. Another trick—an illusion. Weary of the games my mind continued to play, I bit back tears and the catch in my throat.
I should have been immune to them—the hallucinations—the way they haunted me and followed me. I wasn’t.
Forcing myself to blink, I turned my head away.
The visions had grown worse as I’d become older. I’d tried to convince myself they were nightmares—or weird dreams. Hoped for years they were, but only people who sleep dream.
