Conduit Series: Illustration and an excerpt: Rath

‘Rath’ Guerra. Shifter. Illustration by Nicole Deal.

I unlock the door as the engines of the vehicles shut off behind me. I don’t have to look back to know that Cayley is climbing out of the car, or that Grinder has returned with Doc Z and Presh’s brother, Rath. Their life force is so robust, I don’t need eyes with which to see them. 

But I feel drawn, even momentarily compelled, to look back. Just once. 

At Rath. 

He’s so huge, easily six and a half feet, that his large bike looks regular-sized as he swings his leg off it. His hair is brown, chopped short. As he removes his helmet, he favors his left shoulder, almost imperceptibly. I can’t see the color of his eyes from this distance, but his features are broad, arresting.

      1. That happens sometimes. You can see it because you uploaded and hosted it, but others can’t because it’s too big to load. It’s super annoying. But love the drawing!!

      1. I’m so excited. I know you will let us know when the mailing happens, but I keep checking my mailbox every day!
        I can hardly stand the wait.

    1. I uploaded a smaller file so you might be able to refresh and se it now. I can see it, so I’m not sure why others are having issues.
