It had been a most satisfying night. As Seth lay back under the stars, satiated with what turned out to be a surprisingly succulent sanguinary experience with William Wangshaft, he admired again his new trophies; a kidney, as promised, for his feisty fledgling and a most unexpected memory. Will’s reel had mainly comprised of beer,Continue reading “Chapter 1.51 – Absolute Chaos”

Chapter 1.50 – Monumental Fuck Up
It had been a gruelling day with the police and the journalists and it was gone midnight when Chuck finally opened the door to their home. Babs had made a beeline for the television leaving Chuck to his thoughts. Melinda was eighteen, an adult who had left by her own volition. There was only soContinue reading “Chapter 1.50 – Monumental Fuck Up”
Chapter 1.46 – Walking Disaster
“Try to think fast thoughts,” Caleb instructed, unhelpfully. Melinda shrugged. “Such as what? Cheetahs? Bullet trains?” “No, not of fast things. Just of speediness, generally.” It didn’t make any sense. They’d been out here for ages and they were getting literally nowhere. Melinda tried to think of speediness and ran forward a few paces atContinue reading “Chapter 1.46 – Walking Disaster”
Chapter 1.44 – Toy
Note: mildly NSFW and all sorts of disturbed Faith hadn’t had to summon Seth this time; as she approached the end of the pathway towards the road, it was like her feet knew where to go. “Fashionably late,” he teased as she walked towards him. “Ah, trouble with Lilith?” “She harassed me as I wasContinue reading “Chapter 1.44 – Toy”
Chapter 1.43 – Never Seen Your Face
“That’s Caleb’s room. That’s mine and it’s strictly off-limits. You three will be in that room. Help yourself to the pantry. I’ve got surgery until five; do not call me unless it’s urgent. If I come back and you’re all drunk, I’ll turn you in myself. Understood?” “Yes Mum,” Faith joked. Lilith narrowed her eyesContinue reading “Chapter 1.43 – Never Seen Your Face”
Chapter 1.42 – Take the TV
Melinda had asked to have brandy at Winterfest. Her parents had argued in that playful way they did whenever they differed in their approach to parenting. Her mum had told her dad that he was corrupting her; her dad had told her mum that Melinda needed something strong to wash away the taste of dinner.Continue reading “Chapter 1.42 – Take the TV”
Chapter 1.39 – Behave
Caleb had screwed up. Lilith was certainly going to attempt to give him a sharp whack with the spoon of doom for allowing them all to get into this state. Especially April who was supposed to be recuperating. Faith was such a bad influence; at one point she’d been practically pouring vodka down his throatContinue reading “Chapter 1.39 – Behave”
Chapter 1.38 – Ten Thousand Lovers
April was fussing with her dress. “Do I look OK? Is it too much?” Melinda’s eyes were taking up most of her face. “You look… very um…” “Hot.” April wasn’t so sure. It had been her idea to do this; present herself like this. But the second she put the dress on all she couldContinue reading “Chapter 1.38 – Ten Thousand Lovers”
Chapter 1.37 – Selfish Desires
Faith knew what she was expecting when she pushed open the bedroom door. April would be lying upon her bed; awake perhaps, but not entirely and still stuck in that creepy new dark form that she had. She did not expect her to be stomping around the room looking very much back to normal. “WhoContinue reading “Chapter 1.37 – Selfish Desires”
Chapter 1.36 – Easy Prey
Lilith closed April’s bedroom door and tried to fight against the desire to lie on the floor; she was drained. Feeling her way along the banister, she descended the stairs. Faith and Melinda greeted her at the bottom. “Did it work?” they asked, together. “Yes, but it’ll take a day or two for her toContinue reading “Chapter 1.36 – Easy Prey”
