Jelly Cooper: Alien
Epilogue

Before you go, there’s something you should know…

Between you and me, I’m lying, of course.

Things are nowhere near being back to normal and, in my heart of hearts, I know it. It’s just that I’m not prepared to let it spoil the moment. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: a girl can only take so much in one day, you know?

Tonight is a night of celebration. There’ll be plenty of time to ponder the future tomorrow.

There are more out there, Hunters, maybe on Earth already. They’ll be coming for me and mine; they could be on their way right now.

With a shrug, I banish all morbid thoughts to the back of my mind. Let them come, I say. The bashrak should learn that threatening me and the people I love is a sure fire way of making me angry and, above all else, they don’t want to do that.

In the immortal words of The Hulk, they won’t like me when I’m angry.
