by Watch Me, Desire Me


  “I do not know this girl, nonetheless my fear for her if Lord Drackett is successful makes me horrified. He is a beast. That and we cannot be sure he is not behind Megatha’s death.”

  “I agree. I have to stop him from destroying a chance at a peace.”

  “What can you do?”

  “My only alternative is to send Tavian for the girl, bring her here, and then I will figure out what to do next.”

  “Tavian agreed to this?”

  “No. In fact, when I mentioned it he went into a tirade. ‘Tis obvious he is still bitter over Shila’s betrayal and disjointed about her death. Unfortunately, my brother has not recovered from the ghastly circumstances about his wife, and seeks to see that we all pay for Shila’s transgressions.”

  “Tavian is, ah, self-destructive since the accident. Do you think ‘tis wise to send him for the girl?”

  “I have no choice.” Juden eased Saxby from his lap and stood up. “I will head toward Dandelion in case Fiona has already arrived, and Tavian will travel in the direction I think the girl would ride to reach the Northern Territory boundary. The weather may have delayed her, I can only pray, and he might find her in time to save her a disastrous fate in the hands of Lord Drackett.” He kissed her forehead. “The sooner I leave the better.” He stepped back. “What is the matter? You look distressed.”

  “With all due respect I must say that Tavian is not the consummate gentlemen he used to be. Now, he drinks to excess, shrouds himself in darkness, seeks self-destruction, and he is different in all respects. Very filled with negativity, and doesn’t seem conscience his actions to surround himself in doom and gloom of self-pity have adverse affects not only on himself but others. Frankly, I believe Tavian does not care.” She looked up at Juden. “He is your brother, so I trust your judgment to send him after the girl. However, I will pray to Oslei for Fiona’s fate and ask for mercy on her soul when she encounters Tavian.”

  “I gave clear direction that he is to bring the girl to Duns Laire and nothing more. Tavian will not disobey my edict.”

  “We can only pray,” Saxby whispered.

  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  Carolina Barbour grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana, where she spent her youth before moving to Texas, which is her current residence after 20-odd years. A place she now calls home, but still has Hoosier blood running in her veins that often make her yearn for family, the White Castle burger at 3:00am, and the vibrate splashes of colors on display when seasons change.

  She enjoys warm summer months of Texas that seem to extend into fall, and even later into winter months, feeling like an extended summer vacation for her family, and two miniature schnauzers who enjoy time outdoors.

  Carolina enjoys writing a good novel with believable characters, suspenseful plots—suspense genre is her first love. When creating the story, she does not have a qualm about stepping outside the box to bring her readers a page-turner. Her characters must make you laugh, swell with tears, or even feel anger—all types of emotions—before Carolina feels she has done justice by her readers.

  Barbour found out her love for writing when she attended an English course at the community college, where creative writing was the professor’s niche. Her teacher made the students write story after story, always challenging them to go further. Carolina was clueless then about her love for writing, or that she was even capable of penning a good story, until her professor suggested she take up writing as a career.

  Pure Distraction is Carolina’s first published novel; an erotic sci-fi thriller. Carolina had such fun writing this story; she cannot wait to bring her readers more of the Pure Series, along with other interesting stories and characters.
