Full Moon on the Rise
By: Natalie Carlisle
Blurb
Someone in
Emerson Fox Academy is determined to kill him, and Kale Rollins doesn’t know
how much more he can take. And on top of everything, his adopted mom has
“disappeared” and his real brother, Trey, is leaving just when Kale needs him
the most. Not to mention, Miller and Kit are getting too close for his comfort
and there is nothing he can do about it.
Frustrated, scared, and struggling for “control” Kale doesn’t trust himself at all. With the full moon on the rise, Kale soon realizes he isn’t the only one who might die.
What he wouldn’t do to be normal these days…

Excerpt:
On most days the lake looked calm
and serene, but today the rain bounced across the surface making it look like a
boiling pot. Thunder continued to rumble in the distance, but it was still too
far away to concern them.
There was nobody else out this way,
not in this weather. As they neared the bridge Kale caught a whiff of decay
from what he knew to be the near bottomless layer of tree-debris that weather,
water and time had mulched into black muck along the shoreline.
The old bridge creaked under their
feet and halfway across Kit slipped on the algae-slicked, wet planks. He caught
her before her knees slammed against the wood.
“Whoa, easy.” He pulled her upright.
Then reached down, picking up her notebook, handing it back to her. Since they
were standing directly under the open sky, the rain felt heavier, harsher.
Kit’s platinum hair looked golden brown and raindrops trailed down her cheeks
like teardrops.
“Stupid rain boots,” she grumbled,
irritated as she glanced down at the bottoms of her boots. “They have no grip
on them.” She blew out a breath. “I mean, really what’s the point.” Shaking her
head, she looked back up, her expression softening when Kale smiled at her. She
blinked against the rain. “Thanks for catching me.” His lips curved more. “And
for walking me this far. I really appreciate it.” The rain even darkened her
eyelashes, outlining her amazing eyes.
“I’ll be fine from here though. You should head back.”
It was really hard not to keep
staring down at her, but Kale pulled his gaze away toward the other side of the
bridge. She must have sensed his hesitation because she added, “I’ll see you in
Professor Stilts’, okay?”
The sound of the buzzer went off
behind them signaling the start of his next class, but he still didn’t move. He
just kept his focus on the trees.
“You should really go,” she urged.
She was right. He had missed way too
many classes already, but he just wasn’t fond of the idea of her walking
outside school grounds alone. “Do you even know where he is?”
“Of course,” she said simply.
“Imprint, remember?”
Oh, yeah. He remembered that all
right. And he was still pissed that the imprint he used to share with Kit had
been broken. It would have been a lot easier if he and Kit were still together,
together. For starters he wouldn’t have
to be standing out in the rain right now so she could go run off to another
guy.
