Chapter 8: The Fantasy Weekend

David leaned back in his chair, swirling his third whiskey of the evening as the low hum of conversation and clinking glasses filled the dimly lit restaurant. Harper sat across from him, her manicured hands fidgeting with the edge of the menu. The candlelight flickered against her dewy skin, her carefully sculpted features glowing like something out of a movie. “Do you even know what foie gras…

Blood Magic Chapters 1 - 11: the full updated story so far!

Preface This is what happened – started to happen, I should say – in the September when I was fourteen. I wrote a lot of it down at the time, even some of the conversations, in my secret diaries, the sort Mum always gave me for Christmas and I always hid in my knicker drawer, because I couldn’t lock the tiny padlock because I always lost the key… although since Mamalou taught me how to remember,…

What are you favourite tropical holiday reads?

Get ready for Summer Reading Lists! On a holiday or taking a break – is there a go-to genre you pick up to indulge in? I noticed that my reading habits tend to change when I’m on holiday. I live in Australia, so it’s usually a hot tropical getaway and I just want to kick back and indulge. So the types of books I pick up to read are usually action-adventure types or maybe an action-packed…

Flash Fiction: Breakfast for Two

Liam’s alarm went off and lightly pulsed its way into Katie’s dreams. She remained still on her side of the bed, waiting for the grunt, click, and groan that accompanied her husband’s exit from bed. Instead, the beeping continued long past the usual three whiny beeps and picked up speed and insistence. Katie flung out a hand towards his side of the bed, aimed in the probable direction of his…

Chapter 6: Running from the Wreckage

David sat on the edge of the hotel bed, the dim light of the bedside lamp casting long shadows on the cheap carpet. The whiskey bottle on the nightstand was nearly empty, and his phone rested in his hand, Harper’s latest message lighting up the screen. Harper: I can’t wait to spend a weekend with you in person. It feels like we’ve been together forever. He smiled faintly, though the expression…

Sí la enemistad de sus familias no fuera suficiente; si el echo de que el es un chamán y ella una bruja no es suficiente. Tal vez su presuntuosa y altanera personalidad, que están obligados a pretender llevarse bien por sus amistades ó que el reverendo Foster esta empellado a responsabilizar a ambos por los enfrentamientos infantiles de sus familias. En fin, entre más lejos estén uno del otro mejor. Las cosas se complican cuando una noche de luna nueva, uno de los amigos de Carnelian, Bram Jonas, desaparece misteriosamente después de una fiesta. Las acusaciones entre las dos familias no se hacen esperar, cuando por ningún elemento mágico pueden dar con su paradero. Carnelian comienza a creer que la criatura mágica con la que se enfrentan es mas poderosa de lo que se imaginaban. Y si el mundo no estuviera de por sí de cabeza, Ikai ofrece formar una alianza secreta con ella para poder encontrar a su amigo. Solo serán aliados por un tiempo ¿Qué podría salir mal? No es como si el pasar todas la noches con el investigando lo haga parecer menos insufrible. O que de repente a la luz de la luna comience a ver un atractivo que no había notado antes. Y ni mencionar el calor en el pecho que despierta su cercanía. Carnelian tendrá que recordarse que se trata de su peor enemigo y que el amor entre una bruja y un chamán esta prohibido.
