Six Sentence Sunday
#sixsunday is thankful that a human would do her best to protect a vampire from the sun. I’m closing in on the end for this one!
“I think Alice here was trying to protect you from the sun’s rays.”
The dumbfounded expression morphed into an indulgent smile, one that might have tripped Alice’s heart if she wasn’t on the way to steaming mad at both men. Drew placed one hand over his abdomen, one behind his back, and bowed at the waist. Something girlish inside of her melted anyway. She could imagine him just then, donned in a long-tailed tuxedo, stiff white bowtie at the collar. Someone from a different time when men did such a noble gesture for every woman who crossed his path.

that was totally a visual excerpt – with a little humour thrown into the mix. Lovely
Very nice. I enjoyed this.
Liked the snippet. So charming 🙂
He is a charmer. 🙂 Love the description.
Delightful image – love the way he bows, and love her reaction too.
Terrific six Dee! Especially loved this line:
Something girlish inside of her melted anyway.
Doesn’t sound like she’ll be able to stay mad at him for long. 🙂
Yay! Happy you’re almost done.
I’m so happy you’re almost done! Can’t wait to buy & read this whole story. 🙂
Oh, and thanks for that eye-candy too!
Awe, I totally like it!!
I LIKE it! An unexpected and graceful gesture – charming! (Even though we don’t forget she’s mad at them) Terrific snippet.
I enjoyed your six! I like how his smile and bow undermine her anger without his saying a word. 🙂
A great six. I love a traditional man. yum, and in a bow tie… yummer!
There’s just something about that sort of graciousness that will always be appealing. Well done!
Beautiful six! 🙂 Well done!
You did it, Dee. In so few lines and words, you captured the essence of a noblemen from past times and you had me at the bow. Well done! 😀
Great description.
Oh, I don’t think she can be steaming mad forever. Fab six! So excited it’s almost finished. 🙂
Wonderful six – so sweet and charming!
Utterly charming and “Dee”lightful. I’m curious about his ‘stiff’ white bowtie. 😉
Nice! They do have a way of melting us anyway, don’t they!?
Wow, that is a really nice six! It captures him wonderfully.
Lovely Dee. Gracious time long gone. Too bad.
Great 6, love viewing her reaction to him and how his bow conjured images of a long ago era.
Okay, Drew just captured my heart. I love this story. 🙂

Drew is completely endearing! What a fun story. Super six, Dee!
