This comes from my second WIP, an urban fantasy romance. The series is El Corazon and book one is Scintilla.
Raul is a werewolf. Brandon a magical human known as a Scintilla. ***** “He had business in Sahuarita this morning,” Brandon said to the laptop. “Maybe…?” Brandon put one finger against the flash drive port and closed his eyes, concentrating. Shouldn’t use my power for evil. Except he wasn’t. He was using it for self-gain. How was that any different than the way his ability had been used for profit by his parents his entire life? It wasn’t. A few minutes of time circumventing fire walls and impressive security for a small-town police department, Brandon knew that Raul needed to collect his fee for the centaur he’d delivered yesterday. According to Raul’s e-mail he’d be stopping at the bail bond office in about an hour. 1/28/2018 10:55:24 am
Considering all the things he could do with a power like that, I imagine he's in danger as much as he's in demand.

I've never really considered before what tough moral choices come with having that kind of power. Still, at least he seems to be weighing it up. That's a good sign.

Very interesting bit of introspection and I liked the line about the centaur, conjures up neat images. Comments are closed.
