Caleb had learned that searches were not limited. But that was all he’d learned. He rubbed his aching temples and closed his eyes, resting for a moment from the flickering images before him. How did humans look at these things all day? Frustration was starting to get the better of him. He had not beenContinue reading “Chapter 3.06 – This Secret”

Chapter 3.03 – Guillotine
Note: blood When it became apparent that April was as settled as she could be, Melinda sneaked out of Caleb’s bedroom and into the tiny bedroom next door. She dug through the craft basket, looking for the brightest yarn she could find and idly began to knit, to no pattern in particular. The monotonous actionContinue reading “Chapter 3.03 – Guillotine”
Chapter 3.02 – Peripheral Vision
Lilith wandered the sitting room gazing at the weathered photographs and sketches and thumbing through Sage’s collection of big band records until she heard the singing stop in the adjacent room and the water stop running. She listened to the pad of feet as they faded across the hallway. Then, Lilith waited a further tenContinue reading “Chapter 3.02 – Peripheral Vision”
Chapter 3.01 – Wild Goose Chase
“So, Kitty turned you, and then what happened?” Faith asked, alarmed by Seth’s agitation and his glowing green eyes that had slowly revealed over the course of his story. “She kept me in the basement, for the most part,” he answered, his voice frantic. “They kept me down there for decades.” “Why?” Faith asked, tryingContinue reading “Chapter 3.01 – Wild Goose Chase”
Chapter 2.54 – The Demonic Bitch
Welcome to the end of book two. If you survive this, I swear – it gets better. Warning: Non-consent, suicidal sim, violence, blood, ritual humiliation. A little while after sunset, I sat under the tree on the hill where we’d first met, and gazed up at the colour-changing clouds as the light began to fade.Continue reading “Chapter 2.54 – The Demonic Bitch”
Chapter 2.52 – Backdraught
Backdraught: a phenomenon in which a fire that has consumed all available oxygen suddenly explodes when more oxygen is made available, typically because a door or window has been opened. Warning: disturbing image, lots of skin/NSFW/ may make your brain explode Seth had hesitated when Faith had begged him to help her to forget. HeContinue reading “Chapter 2.52 – Backdraught”
Chapter 2.49 – Delicacy
Disclaimers: somewhat NSFW, generally really awful When April had offered the chance of eternal life, a thousand scenarios had fought for space in Faith’s mind. She’d dreamed of going about her day-to-day life like a regular person, making a mental list of everyone who crossed her to pay a visit to at midnight. She’d lostContinue reading “Chapter 2.49 – Delicacy”
Chapter 2.48 – A Visitor
Note: mildly NSFW text and some blood. Jessica had been staring at the wall all morning, her mind blank and still wearing that numb expression she’d been donning since the previous evening when the doctor had given her a run-down of her various test results in their clinical, factual way. She’d only heard one wordContinue reading “Chapter 2.48 – A Visitor”
Chapter 2.44 – Run Wild
Disclaimer: Violence/bloodshed/gore, psychedelic crisis (a bad trip), Saith. Definitely dipping into the ‘horror’ element here, folks. He would never admit it, but the sheer effort of holding himself together after that final lie, followed by an attempt to mist both himself and Faith, had pushed Seth to the absolute limit of his power. He knewContinue reading “Chapter 2.44 – Run Wild”
Chapter 2.42 – Daughter
So this was ‘Chuck’. Mother would’ve hated his name. She would have insisted on calling him ‘Charles’. But he was not posh enough to be a ‘Charles’. He’d tripped over the doormat as he’d entered and then said ‘fiddlesticks’, which made me laugh. Melinda says some funny words when she’s trying not to swear, butContinue reading “Chapter 2.42 – Daughter”
