Maya got bitten a second time by Danny when she was examining him. Dec has returned with supplies and found her buried in research.
Dropping the bags containing Maya’s things, he marched forward to reach for her arm. Maya shocked him by bolting from the chair and putting the table between them.
“Before you get mad--” she started.
Dec’s brows shot up. “Before?” he demanded. “You think I can walk into my room, see that you’ve been hurt, and not already be upset?”

Gerat six! I've been enjoying these peeks into Chains of Jericho.
A powerful six that leaves me wanting to know what he's going to do next.
Great 6! Loved his interruption of "Before?" Whole snippet was very visual, I could picture it...
Yikes! Yeah, never say "before you get mad" LOL. Maya is probably gonna get an earful from Dec. Oh dear. This really shows his concern for her.
Poor Maya, how many more bites will she have to endure? Dec needs to make it better real soon...
Well done six...love the name Dec too!
very descriptive and am sure it will be resolved
I LIKE him. But I also want to know why she put the table between them...intriguing excerpt!
Sooo - if he gets mad he might be violent to her? This is an intriguing story.
Love Dec already. An intriguing six! :)
I bought this last week because the snippets have been so good. Can't wait to find a few hours to devour it in its entirety. :)
I'm really starting to like Dec! Powerful but kind. Nice combo. :)
I like Dec too, at this point anyway! great snippet!
I love this! You've conveyed so much in such few lines, Vivien. Nicely done! :)
This is great, Vivien! I love how they interact. Is "Chains of Jericho" only available at Amazon? (I looked on the Kobo website and didn't see it).
Nice six. Makes me want to know what's going to happen next.
Sounds like she is assuming he's going to get mad at her, and he's mad at whoever hurt her.
I'm with Dec. Before? Seriously? (I really like him, btw.)
You have a great talent for ratcheting up emotionally tense situations in just a few lines. Nicely done!
Both of their reactions are so impressively real. I *love* what he says here.
I think I'm in love with Dec already :)
