Promo Tour: Fear Me Not by Sara Wolf Synopsis The aliens crash-landed on Earth eleven years ago. And now, sixteen-year-old Victoria Hale feeds them. With her emotions. Victoria is an EVE - an Emotion Vesicle Engraft - and one of few humans who are genetically capable of producing emotions for the Gutters to feed on. Shes doing it for the money - her sister Alisa needs a good doctor, and fast. But what she didnt count on was being sent to the worlds first desegregated high school for Gutters and humans. She didnt count on the paparazzi, the protestors, or the insane Gutter politics and government secrets. She didnt count on the crimson-eyed Gutter prince with an intriguing heart of cold iron, either. She especially didnt count on murder. But its counting on her.

My eyes slide over – Shadus is standing right next to me, leaning on the bookshelf. I close my eyes and sigh. “Don’t be. It’s me. Something’s wrong with me. I don’t know how to react like a normal person. Jeers, whispers, sneers, those are fine. I ignore them, punch something to make them hurt less. Compliments? I don’t know what to do with those.” “You’re different. That’s not necessarily bad,” He offers. His long fingers skim over a row of books and he picks one out, flipping through the pages. “More literature in which the protagonist kisses his interest. Is it all your human writers are interested in? It hardly seems worthy enough to devote entire books to.” “It’s not so bad,” I defend. “Kissing.” “You speak from experience?” He asks. “Second grade during the school play. Arnold Grady. We were backstage, behind the curtain. I thought it was a good time to go for it.” “It was enjoyable, then?” “Too wet.” I laugh, the memory burning like an old tattoo of embarrassment. “He was shorter than me - all the boys were. They’ve only started catching up this year, really.” “I’m jealous.” I raise an eyebrow. “What? Of the short boys?” “Of your kiss. You speak of it fondly. Even if it was lacking technique, you still remember it. It must have been an important experience. I assume I will never know that sort of feeling - ” I step into him. He jolts back, hitting the bookshelf. It shakes, and settles. I point up at him. “Be thankful. You guys have the ceremony of flame. You don’t waste time with petty shit and he-likes-her-she-likes-him crap. Your future is arranged by your family. But us? Humans? We fish around blindly in a pool of seven billion people, hoping one of them isn’t too crazy or too incompatible with us, and we get so desperate that when we find someone we can stand for two minutes we decide to marry them for life, when in reality they’re all wrong for us. But we keep pretending they’re right, until we can’t anymore, and then we divorce them or break up and we get up and try again, and again, and it chips away at our tiny human hearts.” He stares at me intently, as if I’m lecturing him and he’s trying his hardest to learn something from it. I snort. “You’re lucky, Creeps. All you Gutters are lucky.” “What you call ‘lucky’, I call ‘boring’,” Shadus says. “The human way of things may be more painful, but it sounds much more fun.” I stride up to him, get in his face. His chest is rising and falling, his fists balled up. His ruby eyes stare down at me. “Don’t do it,” He murmurs. “Do what?” I singsong. He struggles with something inside himself, a pained look coming over his expression. “Victoria -” I press my head into the cradle where his neck meets his shoulder.
