#unnamed 🥩 story

[lupinedreaming]

So, I decided to go ahead and share a bit of the, uh, cannibal story I’m writing. I’m having a good time writing it so far 😅

Note: The POV character, Tate, is non-binary and uses she/they pronouns. I alternate between using she/her and they/them while writing from their POV.

OKAY, here you go:

“My roommate’s work schedule is crazy. How would you know she wouldn’t be home?”

The hairs on the back of their neck prickled. Their breath hissed out between their teeth.

“Have you been watching me?”

Elias said nothing. He didn’t shrug or nod or anything else. Just stood still by the chair looking at her, expecting her to be smart enough to come to her own conclusion. 

She swiped her mouth with her hand, pinched her lips between her fingers. Picked at a loose piece of skin on her lips. She dropped her hand and laughed.

“Oh my God, you have. So, what? You gonna grill me up as thanks for being the witness for the defense that got your ass out of the mess you were in? Huh? Gonna have a nice,” she waved her hand in the air, grabbing at her hair with the other hand, “rump roast, huh? Or maybe gonna start with the ribs?”

She heard her breath squeezing out of her lungs harsh and fast. If she didn’t slow down her breathing, she would hyperventilate and then he’d have a much easier time doing whatever he’d come to do.

“No. I came to talk to you.”

Tate barked out a laugh at that, but he continued to stare at her.

Elias’ eyes gaze was like the stare of a big cat — intense, clear, and knowing, and there was no fence between her and the tiger. 

Tate kept the coffee table between them. She could shove it and run if she needed to. 

“Who breaks into someone’s apartment to talk to them? What the hell is wrong with you?”

Elias tilted his head and scanned the room. “According to most people, quite a lot. Though I don’t believe so.”
