New lines from Destined!

Bonnie’s huge hooves drove into the ground. Lenobia could feel the mare’s powerful heartbeat. The warm night air whipped her hair back and the Horse Mistress leaned even farther forward, encouraging Bonnie to let loose—to give her everything.

The mare responded with a burst of speed that shouldn’t have been possible for a creature who weighed two thousand pounds.

As the wind whistled around them, lifting Lenobia’s long silver hair in time with the Percheron’s mane in that magickal dance that melded horse to rider, Lenobia thought of the ancient Persian saying: The breath of heaven is found between a horse’s ears.

“That’s right! That’s exactly right!” Lenobia yelled, and clung to the speeding mare’s back.

Yay, Big Bonnie! Love that she made an appearance in Destined and even better that we know what she looks like! She is such a big beauty.

I noticed when Stevie Rae talks about the white bull Lenobia touches her neck so her past has something to do with the white bull. I wonder what it is omg!!

Hey PC. Im new to this, but i have been looking at all the posts for a while now. And everyone likes to ask you about whats gonna happin in the next book. Im not gonna do that. The question i wanna know is. If there is only to be 12 books then that means Destined, is going to be the last book where you find out if Zoey fully changes or if she wins the battle between good and evil? if so then im sad about that, i know everything comes to a end. But you got some amazing books going on with the house of night and it just seems like they cant be done yet.

Esme said...
