Rebirth and Affliction Sneak Peek

A second brief teaser of Chapter 18 - Instructions:

“How does Jessamine know as much about fighting as she does?” Jules asked when she reached me.

“I told you awhile ago to ask her for her story.”

“Well, I know you better than I know her. Besides, you obviously know the story already or you wouldn't tell me to ask her.”

“It's not my story to tell.”

Jessamine came over as we talked – we weren't exactly trying to be quiet in our conversation, so I was sure she heard.

“So you're curious about my past?” Jessamine asked, looking at Jules.

“Only as it correlates to your knowledge of what's going on now. As well as your knowledge of how to fight.”

“Well, in order for me to answer that, you have to understand that my upbringing was far different than that of the rest of my family.”
