0 Fury Uk Blog Tour An Extract From Fury

Second day of the FURY Blog Tour here at Girls at Without a Bookshelf and your treat for today is an extract from FURY! Check it below -Out of the snowy fog emerged one girl, then two more. Chase couldn't help but let his jaw drop a bit; these chicks were amazing. The one in front, a redhead with fair skin, was smiling, while the other two-one blonde and a little curvy, the other petite with wavy, honey-colored hair and a paisley scarf around her neck-stood behind her with serious expressions on their gorgeous faces. All three of them seemed to be enveloped in some sort of white light; probably the moon, playing tricks with the snow.Or maybe he was still drunker than he thought."Hey, sorry to startle you," the redhead said, stepping toward him. "I'm Ty. These are my cousins, Ally and Meg.Chase stuttered, "Um, hi. Hey. I'm Chase."Hi Chase," all three girls said, practically in unison."Our car ran out of gas." Ty motioned up the road a bit, where Chase thought he could just see the outline of a vehicle. "Any chance you could help us?" For a girl stranded in the middle of a snowstorm, she seemed fairly relaxed."Do you want me to, um, drive you to the gas station? Or something?"That would be great, thanks," Ty said. "Why don't I go with you, and Ally and Meg can wait in the car?"Chase wasn't one for new age crap-his mom had been to see a psychic a few times and always came back muttering voodoo bullshit, all about "affirmations" and chakra. Not to mention the fact that she'd gone to the psychic in the first place to try to communicate with Chase's dead father, the deadbeat who'd leave them for week-long drinking binges and come back to eat their food while he "cleaned up."Nevertheless, for a split second, he felt like this was "fate"-like a sign from the universe. Sure, the party might have been a bust-the Sasha news was pretty much the definition of a buzzkill, and he'd been in no shape to get numbers or hook up-but now he would get alone time with the hottest girl he had ever seen in his life. It was fate, clearly.Everything was going to be okay."So, was there a party tonight?" Ty asked, once they were in the car. He could barely resist the urge to brush the snowflakes from her hair, to lean over and breathe in her musky, floral scent. He silently thanked the dudes at the local garage for letting him use their cleaning supplies for free in return for a couple hours on Saturday mornings. Without them, he couldn't perform his bi-weekly car-cleansing ritual-the only thing that combated the stale smell of his mom's Pall Malls. As he put the car in drive, he felt like he was launching a spaceship into the night, into the snow. He and Ty would explore the dark, winding roads and stark, branch-lined fields between Minster's street and the gas station."Yeah, a Christmas party type thing," he said, mentally kicking himself for sounding so uncool. She was probably picturing people dancing around in elf costumes. He quickly added, "You know, just some high-school kids." He was sure this girl must be in college."Sounds like fun. I "love" parties," Ty said, smiling at him in the dark. "Don't you wish we could go back to having parties like they did centuries ago? With dance cards and formal invitations and choreographed dances? Or masquerade balls? I'd "love" to go to a masked party. Wouldn't you?"Totally," he said, thankful she hadn't been there to see him try to set up the beer pong game. "You, um, study history or something?"Or something," Ty said, laughing. Her laugh was like the sound of clinking coins. Chase couldn't think of anything else to say. He fumbled with the radio dial, trying to tune in to something sophisticated and moody."God, the snow is amazing," Ty said, looking out the window. "It reminds me of that old poem-you know. Something about the snow in the air, something something, "the secret of despair"."Chase was so entranced that he could barely focus on anything outside the car; the trees blended together outside his window like a movie in fast-forward. This girl was driving him crazy. It was like she was wearing one of those pheromone perfumes.Then she turned to him, her eyes piercing. "Did you hear all those sirens before? Any idea what that was about?"His mouth went dry. The sirens were the last thing he wanted to talk about. "Nope. Maybe some kind of accident...Lots of people just don't know how to drive in this weather."Nothing's ever really an accident," Ty said, once again smiling at him. Her eyes glittered, cat-like. "Don't you think?"Chase didn't really know what she meant, but he nodded anyway. One thing he was sure of: meeting Ty was no accident.If that's not enough to entice you, I don't know what will! :) Check out the banner above for the rest of the stops for the FURY UK Blog Tour - and don't forget to visit The Crooked Shelf for tomorrow's feature post!
