Teaser Tuesday
Kellen wrinkled her brow and stared back at him. Slowly, things started to make sense. She turned her head. The men skulking around the pool tables stared back at her, their eyes glowing an eerie red under the haze of lights and smoke. The woman at the far end of the bar flicked her cigarette once, twice, and then darted out a long tongue to catch the ashes as they fell. Kellen jumped as a heavy hand fell around her shoulders. The gray-haired man leered down at her as he had before… except now, rounded horns protruded from the mass of tangled hair. He licked his lips with a forked tongue.
Kellen swallowed a cry and flattened herself against the bar.
"I tried to tell you..."
