You close your eyes and finally make the decision to end your
life only to have him show up. Gabriel, here to give you a second chance for
salvation. They say he’s an angel, but then again, they don’t have to serve
under him. He offers you a chance to be a member of the Frozen, a group of
demon hunters. Serve your sentence and you can ascend to heaven. Refuse, well
the punishment has been clearly laid out in the scriptures. It’s a last chance.
But when your body is frozen in time can your heart still beat?

EXCERPT:
The
rain started lightly, I thought Kiri would wake soon so I pulled back into the
shadows. Instead, she seemed to nuzzle
into her shoulder.
Kiri
whimpered and I returned my gaze to her.
She seemed upset, but then again because of me nightmares should be part
of her life for a while now. I cursed
myself for my part in that. Resigned in
the realization Kiri belonged far away from me, I turned to go.
“Nye.”
I
turned to see she was still in a deep sleep.
And she was dreaming of me?
My
heart fluttered. Could she really be
dreaming about me? No, she must be
having a nightmare. Her lips had curled
into a smile
“Nye,
please.”
Please. Please what?
Whatever it was, I was willing to do it.
She was pleading to me. How could
I help her? How could I save her?
Then
the ice came. My heart hardened seeing
her tears. They ran from her eyes like
rats from a ship. What had I done? What was she remembering? Suddenly the heavy rain arrived, dumping
itself from the low hanging clouds and Kiri woke with a start. She didn’t rush for shelter. Instead, she rested her arms on her knees and
buried her face in her hands.
“Why
Goddamn it?” she screamed as she raised her head to the heavens. “Why can’t you even allow me a dream? Is it not bad enough you let me meet him and
refuse to allow me even the slightest touch?
Fine. You win. Leaving me in a dying body with only his
memory to haunt me forever.
“Fuck. You,” she screamed with her middle fingers
raised up to the air. “You are a
vengeful God.”
What
the heck was she talkin’ about?
“Your
own son found forgiveness for Mary Magdalene, am I not as worthy?”
She continued her criticism of God. I was afraid Gabriel or some other angel
would come down to the roof and smite her.
Who was she talking about? The
normal was so intimate with his touch, I couldn’t imagine stopping, but then
again, I had turned down her request of one night.
“What
do you want from me?” she screamed into the night air as the lightning and
thunder started to roll together.
The
sky became light as day as the nearby windows shook.
“Now
you want to kill me. Why? So I have no chance of being with Nye.”
I
stood up right as another bolt of lightning struck, and I saw Kiri’s eyes. She was staring straight at me. She didn’t jump in fear instead she shook her
head and turned towards her apartment.
With one hand firmly on doorknob, she punched the door once, and returned
her gaze to the emptying clouds.
“That
wasn’t even fair,” she said, her voice sounded defeated.
“Kiri,”
I eked. “Kiri, wait.”
“Voices,”
she growled. “Now you have me hearing
voices.”
I
leapt so I was standing right behind her and placed my hand on her shoulder.
“What
is it you want, Kiri?”
“For
you to be real.”
“I
am real.”
Her
wet, silken, skin goose bumped under my hand.
“You
can’t be,” she said, still facing the door.
“You said you’d never come back.
That I’d never see you again. And
here I am. Imagining your face, hearing
your voice. Wishing your hand…was…”
“Wishing
my hand was what?”
“Really
there, that…I could taste…”
I
spun her around and brought her lips to mine.
As our mouths fused, her body went lax between my arms. Her fingers slid softly down my cheeks. When my tongue touched Kiri’s, a moan came
from deep inside her. I held her right
hand in mine and rose it above her head to lock her wrist against the
wall. My body fell against her soft
frame. I could feel myself harden, and
God forgive me I rubbed the darn thing against Kiri. The light strokes had me returning her moan.
When
our lips finally parted, she looked up at me and trembled. The rain streamed down her face. When the lightning flashed again, her eyes
lit up as she looked at me.
“Don’t
wake me,” she begged, pulling me to her again.
