She was the epitome of grace, mystery and beauty. Tanner Reynolds watched as Scheme Tallant skirted around the edges of the room, chatting here and there, that cool smile tempting him, challenging him. He should have ordered her death the moment he learned she had accepted the invitation to the party. But something stopped him. Something always stopped him. Not for the first time where she was concerned, his lust was guiding his actions. She was General Cyrus Tallant's daughter. The seed of evil itself. Cyrus Tallant had headed the training program for the Breeds until their rescues ten years before. Manipulative, destructive, he had managed to cover his ass and make certain there was no true proof of the position he had held, but Tanner and the Breeds he had followed out of the labs in New Mexico years ago had known the dark malevolence that infected him. If you've never read this book, or had no clue where the opener comes from, then how does it strike you? If you had only this opener to go on, would you read more? Does it grab you and spur you to read on? Or does it leave you unenthusiastic? If you read the book it came from, did you remember right away or did you have to look it up? What made it so memorable - or not so memorable? If you are interested to read on, then do a search on the opening line and tell us what it is. _________________ Violet "Violanthe" Kane [email protected] ARWZ.com: A Magazine of Alternative Reality Fiction Last edited by Violanthe on Thu Sep 06, 2007 2:29 pm; edited 1 time in total Back to top Nik Senior Member Joined: 07 Dec 2006 Posts: 805 Location: UK No thanks, sounds like X-Men.
