THIS IS MY ENTRY (TAKEN FROM BOTH OF MY PARANORMAL ROMANCE 
NOVELS  IN THE PROTECTOR SERIES, SO OF COURSE IT IS A FICTIONAL 
ENTRY.  I HOPE YOU LIKE IT, IT SITS JUST ON THE 500 WORD LIMIT.):



My Darling, Jazz,

You have been the most wonderful thing that has happened in my life and I will return for
you as soon as it is possible.  But, I need to work out the problems of my home world.  
would not be able to live a life with you leaving behind such a mess.  I must find out what 
has happened to the others, my mother, my father and my friends.  I also must ensure 
that you will now be safe.

You will find that our blood exchange will change you.  You will see things differently.  
You will be stronger and more alert.  You will also have more effective healing capabilities
and be able to listen to your body’s needs.

I would love to watch you as you become more aware of these gifts but I am sorry that I
will not be able to do so.  My dreams will be filled with the beautiful moments we have
just shared and I hope that our separation will be short.

Please forgive me Jazz,

My love will always be yours.

Seb
******
Exactly at the stroke of 7:30pm my apartment was buzzed to allow entry for my
visitor.  I pressed the button to open the outside door and stood apprehensively near 
the internal door leading into my apartment, waiting for Ryan’s knock.  Those few 
minutes seemed to extend to eternity and when I heard the rap of knuckles on the 
wood, I jumped.  I quickly took the few steps to the door to open it wide and allow 
Ryan to come inside.

Only it wasn’t Ryan standing on my threshold, it was Seb…!

I took a couple of steps backward, I could feel my head start to swoon and my heart 
beat faster, I knew that I was going to faint, but could do nothing to stop myself from 
falling.  The last thing I remembered was the feel of Seb’s familiar arms holding me 
just before my head hit the floor.

******

Jazz made her way to her apartment, I snuck in behind her as she opened the external 
door and hid while she made her way upstairs.  I stood outside, debating whether to 
once again enter her life again or not?  With mixed feelings, I approached the door 
and stood facing it trying to get up the nerve to eventually knock.  Jazz opened the 
door and stood looking at me, straight in the eye.  She didn’t faint from shock this 
time, but my presence did cause her to become emotional.

She ran to me and wrapped her arms around my neck, tears flowed freely form her 
eyes as I held her against me.  For a long time we stood together like this.  I enjoyed 
savouring her scent and the feel of her body pressing closely to mine.

“Jazz, I ….”  Before I could finish the sentence she was entwined in my arms once
again.  We kissed passionately, as if the expanse of time between us had never taken 
place.

At least she didn't faint the second time.

Hi, Carolyn,
Thanks for participating. I like love stories where I see things from the perspective of male & female.

I see you got the paranormal angle in. Good job.

Great entry Carolyn.
I like the way you've used POV.
When it comes to writing romance, I don't think I'm very good at it, despite growing up reading Danielle Steele and countless Mills & Boon stories.

Very sweet ending, great job.
