Stranger by Amber Averay Check out Amber’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheEnchantmentSeries I regretted stopping the car almost immediately. He smiled politely, edged with something unidentifiable, and slid into the passenger seat and was buckled into his belt before I could change my mind. It was a strange thing to think, but he seemed so practised at it, pouring himselfContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 9”

Stranger Stranger  She found the old, faded photograph in a book when she was a child. There were no identifying features to help identify the subject, but she’d been captivated by it nonetheless.  Decades seperated them, but she kept the photograph and wondered what his life was like, who he was, and how he spentContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 9”

Famished by Amber Averay Check out Amber’s Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/TheEnchantmentSeries He’d watched her for so long that her routine was burned into his mind. She was a being of the night, a woman who  epitomised nyctophilia. She came alive in the moonlight. The stars reflected in her glittering eyes as if entire galaxies existed within herContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 8”

Spook-tober: Day 8

Famished  He’d been asleep for a millennia, and had no notion to what he was waking up to. The world was not the same to the one he left.  He once was the ruler of this world now he lived off of the dregs, and he was fortunate to even get that.  He was bitterContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 8”

Madness by Amber Averay Check out Amber’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheEnchantmentSeries He couldn’t believe he was doing this. He’d always felt bucket lists were things the frivolously rich or the perennially cash-strapped made – the former because they could, the latter because they dreamed of better things. It wasn’t until he’d been diagnosed with terminal cancer thatContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 7”

Spook-tober:Day 7

Madness He’d bought this house mere months before.  Now…  There was an incessant buzzing that he couldn’t locate the source of in his room. He’d done everything but tear the plaster apart to locate the bothersome hum.  He couldn’t sleep, and the couch in the den was more of the same, because the springs fromContinue reading “Spook-tober:Day 7”

Spook-tober: Day 6

Midnight by Amber Averay Check out Amber’s Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/TheEnchantmentSeries An early night for once! Well, Ava amended as she left the tavern, early for her. It was after 11 pm, and she’d been working non-stop for weeks. At least, that’s how it felt. She finished her shift early tonight, and then tomorrow she began fourContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 6”

Spook-tober: Day 6

Midnight The flashlight bobbed eratically in his shaking hands. It had been his idea to walk this crumbling cemetary tonight, but he hadn’t planned on it being quite so ruined.  His heart pounded in his chest, but it was more from the impending fear of a twisted ankle than the anticipation of meeting a wanderingContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 6”

Revenge by Amber Averay Take a look at Amber’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheEnchantmentSeries She lifted the slow cooker’s lid and inhaled deeply. The casserole was cooking beautifully, fragrant and tender and simply mouth-watering. The pot on the stove was beginning to boil, and she added a dash of salt to the water before stabbing a potato withContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 5”

Spook-tober: Day 5

Revenge Her hands shook as she washed the blood away in the sink, but her hands refused to come clean. She scrubbed and scrubbed, but the red would not wash away.  She finally gave up, wiped down everything down, tossed the paper towels in the trash, and left the bathroom with her betraying hands shovedContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 5”
