Long for this World
June is a courier runner for medical supplies in a post-Undead zombie apocalypse. When she’s injured on an important run, an unexpected ally gives her a taste of a better life.
Like Rubies through Her Fingers
The hand is cold and heavy as it presses against Jemma’s mouth and nose, stifling any noise she might have made. Cool lips brush against her ear and she shivers against the body at her back while her eyes focus on the display in front of her.
“Don’t move, don’t make a sound if you value your life. Can you do that?”
Follow Your Dreams
When a stalker discovers that someone else is targeting the object of her affections, she takes matters into her own hands.
For Charlie
The gig is simple enough: exist conveniently, show a bit of love and understanding when it’s needed, make you more human but don’t be too human myself. Don’t be too challenging or complex or needy. And when the time comes, try to remember I was a good woman. The perfect catalyst to your next step.
Loved and Lost
Unconscious and tied to a kitchen chair, he doesn’t look like a monster.
