Fox Hunt: Chapter 9
I dismount when I can finally hear the rushing of the falls. I'd walk the rest of the way, and give the horse a break; we had made better time than expected. With luck, I wouldn't be waiting too long for the militiaman I'd be working with to show up. I can feel my lips twisting in disdain at the thought of him. Priamos had assured me he was good, that he would be helpful, but it didn't change the fact I didn't want a partner. I was more than capable of handling this myself. Yet, orders were orders.

Fig's 33rd Birthday Party
Before I tell you all about the birthday party, I think I should start filling in the blanks about me and Fig. I'll start by telling you the basics about myself. My name is Danielle Marie Lyons. I was born on March 15th, 1983 in Bartow, Florida. I moved to Tampa in 2003 when I was 20 years old. I got married to Kenan Rosenbaum in 2005 at the age of 22. At the age of 24, in 2007 we had a son, named Seth. Kenan and I divorced in 2011, and agreed that I would keep custody of Seth so long as I didn't request child support. I didn't want to fight about money because the year before our divorce my father had passed away and left me a trust fund to live off for the rest of my life. I guess my father knew that my little waitressing jobs were not going to be enough to raise my son with. I don't get much every month, but at least I have a stable income.

I don't like My Body
If you were to ask any person on the street about their body, I am sure that at some point in time they have had an issue with it. And a grand majority of people still do. With the new wave of filters, diet hacks and tips to loss weight, body image is still a point of fascination within our society. Well we may have many advocates for plus sizes, different body types and disease/ illness awareness; there is still a heavy drive towards being the best version of oneself and often this best version is still thin.

The Hunt
The dragon swoops this way and that, a ghastly searchlight backdropped by the bright stars. Rock dig and scrapes at me from all angles in this cramped hiding place, but even so, I'm struck by the beauty and majesty of the terrible beast. It's astonishing that a creature so enormous can make the sky.

Valoria
Thalos made his way to the central hall, his mind racing with the possibilities of why he had been summoned so urgently. The elder’s stern face from earlier weighed heavily on his thoughts, adding to the pressure. As he entered the dimly lit room, the air felt thick with the importance of what was to come. Seated around the long table were several of the tribe’s elders, their expressions serious, and their voices hushed as they spoke in low tones. One of them, Elder Garith, motioned for Thalos to step forward.

TALES OF CRIME AND FICTION.
The Agency issued a Warrant for arresting Ralph and even for taking proper steps to give justice to the victims' families. It was somewhere near 10 o'clock and both of us were accompanied by Kevin and were headed towards Ralph's house, some five or so police cars behind us, following us to arrest the criminal.

Hello, Doggie. Nice Doggie.
I breathed hard, the dead man at my feet. It took a moment, and the feel of the cool night air on my skin, to remember I was naked. How odd: I hadn't felt remorse when I bashed his head in, but my conscience pecked at me now, as I tugged his joggers off him and put them on, hopping about on the dewy grass.

WHISPERS OF A FADED HEART
WHISPERS OF A FADED HEART Chapter one First love I was never a believer in love. To me, it was nothing more than a whimsical notion, a figment of our desires that existed solely within the pages of books and the illusion on screens. My innocence was so profound that I once thought kissing in movies was some kind of trick-computer-generated, for surely lips couldn’t meet when the nose stood as an obstacle. Yes, I was that naïve. But my perception was destined to change.

The Golden Dragon Keys
The dismal fog hung thick and low over the frozen coastline, a suffocating blanket that muffled all sound. The jagged cliffs loomed overheard, as the beam of Black Tower Lighthouse swept by. The shattered moon casting an eerie glow across the smooth polished, snow-covered beach rocks.
