A very heartfelt Thank You to Erik Thread for his fabulous editing. His skills make your reading pleasure better. * Leaving town for a while was the smartest thing to do. He needed to get away after a startling end to a relationship he once felt was going to be permanent. At least leaving town sounded like a good idea, but he wasn't sure where to go. He di...
He waited as he had been told to. He had driven out of town, down a deserted road, into the forest. As the odometer hit 3.0 miles from the last turn, he pulled over and parked. The instructions had been very clear and specific. He was to wait until someone came along and told him what to do next. And he was to obey instantly. If he failed to, he would be...
The mittens didn't make the crawl very easy, but she followed as best she could. The tile floor hurt her knees a bit, but she focused her mind on the deed her master laid before her. They entered a room at the end of the hall, and it was rather large. A cold silver steel exam table laid in the middle, and along two conjoining at the corner walls were lined w...
Anna could feel her heart pounding as she knelt, the centrepiece of the room, head respectfully tilted down. Whenever she thought she could get away with it, her eyes flicked between the two men talking to one another, comfortably seated in armchairs at either end of the coffee table. She was cold, but she wasn't sure the tingling of her skin was from that o...
“Why are people stupid enough to fuck with things that don’t belong to them?” he claimed loudly. Zia sat there holding the boards tight and peeked up at me as his voice carried into the tavern.

Waking up draped awkwardly over a too-small Kith bed makes everything feel all too real. Like when you wake up from a night of drinking, and your hangover is so intense that it feels like you're in a completely different world... except this time, I am in a different world. Suddenly the dreamlike nature of being dragged into an underground haven of alien fai...

It was getting dark. The clouds were becoming black and bulbous. A menacing chill whipped through the poplar and sycamore trees, dragging dried leaves, loose hay and dirty tin cans from one end of the farmstead to the other. The dogs were whimpering in their kennels, pleading Justin to let them inside the house and the work animals were bleating heavily in t...
It had been late morning when Nilsa had come to fetch the girl, she was dreary, still somewhat asleep, and completely ignoring of Nilsa's pleas to rise. Finally, rubbing her eyes and batting them several times, the room took shape, and Nilsa's words made sense to the young girl. "Wake sleepy head, you are being requested by Master Drake. Come on girl, get t...
