Mandrake

A Dark Drabble

By Mike Singleton ๐Ÿ’œ Mikeydred Published about a year ago โ€ข 1 min read
A Nightcafe Creation By The Author

I am the Mandrake. I am your worst fears. Do not touch me or you will suffer.

I am the spawn of Hell, and I prey on the weak and unsuspecting. Yes, I scream if you dare to pull me from the unblessed soil, and that noise may kill you, but should you touch me at all, I will enter your bloodstream and mind and devour you in burning pain and horror.

I am a waiting nightmare, yet I am temptation. The weak-minded believe that they are strong enough to take my nourishment and power, but they become my sustenance.
