Tangled Moon: Jonas watched her in his antique wrought iron bed, her chest rising and falling as she slept. She was wearing a beige sheath dress that came barely to her mid-thigh. No ornamentation. She wasn’t even wearing earrings. That part seemed right. Somehow jewelry wouldn’t actually have enhanced her at all. She didn’t seem…

Part Four She breathed in a long, slow pull, as if reading Nick through his scent. He couldn’t help but to breathe her in too. It was involuntary. She smelled as good as she looked, but he couldn’t place the scent, like some rare and expensive spice. Sweet. Exotic. Danielle’s brown eyes darkened to black,…

If one could count on anything in life, it was death. The funeral service was over. The remains lowered into the ground. And now, he was supposed to move on.

Tangled Moon: Part Seven …“So,” she really needed to start a sentence with anything other than, so, “they must have known, somehow, that I existed, and then used me to get at you, since I can’t exactly turn into hundreds of rats and get away.” It took him some time.
