The Vial
I gave Udora a quick glance. But she was staring at the table.
Hurt that I’d chosen to rest rather than coming to him another night? Taking another chance that might save her. I wondered.
I saw a single tear trailing her cheek to fall to the table.
He reached behind him to give her head a reassuring pat.
The motion disturbed me.
He’s comforting her?
My brows drew together in confusion.
He offered me the plate. “Eat, Spitfire. You’ll need your strength.”
He twisted a bit of meat apart and offered it to me.
My eyes narrowed on him.
He tipped his head back and laughed.
“As I suspected.” He set the plate down before me. Spinning the fork between his fingers to offer me the handle.
Letting me do it myself despite his intense need for control.
He leaned over to whisper near my ear. One hand splaying beneath my neck, touching my collarbones as his fingers stret

WitchFall The Ring
I stopped just inside the door. Staring in horror at the shining thing in the center of the room. Glinting metal in the moon’s glow peering down from the skylight, which inexplicably allowed in moonlight from the sky. Despite that we buried in the core of the stronghold. I stared at the device in the center of the room. A giant metal ring with flat pieces going from another smaller ring in the center. Padded with fur. The four flat pieces were all rising from the small ring straight upward. Mathis walked to them and expertly began separating the flat plates and moving them apart. Letting two scrape down to the bottom and setting the other two at a forty five degree angles from the center. “What is this?” I asked fearfully. “Something new.” He said cheerfully. Adjusting those flat plates and then sliding over levers and setting them to hold the flat pieces in place. Pinched between the levers. He went to a black corner and brought out a
WitchFall Tortured
“What would it take to make you stop?” I blurted. Finding myself begging as he entered me another inch. The burn becoming excruciating. “Turn yourself over to me.” As a slave? What does he mean? Nothing about that sounded good. “Meaning?” My eyes were squinted closed, and I was blowing slow breaths. Trying to concentrate on his words even as I fought against the overwhelming pain. It was an entirely different sensation than any before, and so far, I didn’t find it even slightly pleasurable. “Offer yourself to me in her place.” As one of the hanging girls. Those pitiful wretches who’ve surrendered all hope. I couldn’t do that. That’s worse than death. “To be one of your toys forever?” I glared at him. Not doing that! “You’d be the only one.” He said. As if that would reassure me. “Wouldn’t that be an honor?” I said bitterly. “It would. Y
WitchFall Something Wrong
I was both in my body and outside of it. Seeming to float in a different part of the room. From there the vision below was astounding. I could see the powerful flexing of his back and backside. His tanned flesh moving sensually over me as he pounded into my backside. Distantly, I could feel the agony, the self-pity I was dwelling in. But from here, I could see that the strange silver-trimmed wings had folded up from my shoulders and then backward and down to lodge into his lower back. Pushing him down and slowing his movements. Sweat was beaded on him from the exhaustion of struggling against the unseen force. Does he know? The dark streamers were branching from him like sweeping tentacles, invading every part of me. But they were thinning over time. Growing weaker. Yet, those black and silver wings seemed to ripple as though they were somehow feeding on him in the same way he fed on me.
WitchFall His Word
“I’ve been true to my word, thus far Spitfire. Don’t press me. Bear in mind that when you lack all honor, all conscience, your word means perilously little to you anymore.” He’s reminding me how conscienceless he truly is. As if I could forget… “Then why are you keeping it to begin with?” “Such a clever little thing.” He praised. Arms falling as though he were truly impressed. Though I doubt it. I somewhat expected some venomous remark to follow but instead he answered my question. “Because it matters to you. And for now, I like this game as it is.” I hated that he never gave me any reassurances regarding the future. He enjoys watching me writhe. He always left it open to point out that he could change his mind at any moment and simply not let me leave one day. And as I’d already considered, no one would ever even know I was here. That dark reminder gave me col
WitchFall Run!
They all silenced. And I realized she was far more of a commander than I. She exuded some strange authority that I doubted I was capable of. They were all looking around lost. I pointed to the door. Pushing one girl’s back to get her moving. “Go.” I ordered. The others followed as a cluster. I saw Twinkets buzzing around my head. Tugging at my hair. Seeing that they wanted my attention, I looked over my shoulder and saw one of the huge gray ogre’s stepping into view at the end of that short corridor. Staring at the locked dungeon door with a look that told me he sensed something was wrong. Time stopped as he turned and looked at them. I ripped open the door and sent the girls spilling out like a tidal wave falling on the steps. “Run!” I shrieked so loudly I was certain that my voice echoing up on the hill had to have woke half the village below. But they obeyed me. Hair and skin of every shade and textur
WitchFall Not Who They Seem
She was nearly whining the words. Though her eyes were huge with disbelief. “How can you be even more heartless than me?” Mathis asked her in his flat tone. “I hate females.” She shrugged. Making her small breasts bob along his elbow. He drew his arm away. “What are you doing?” She demanded. “I don’t want touched.” “You certainly want her touching you! Are you now being led by your cock rather than power?” She spat. “I thought more of you.” He rotated on his heel, and she knew her mistake a moment too late. “Mathis…” She backed up. “Perhaps I should put you in that cage and actually lock it.” She shook her head adamantly. “I do everything for you!” “Do you think I truly give a shit what you’ve done?” Her brows drew together in a blatant expression of betrayal. “It’s not me you’re mad at!” She defended. “It’s Saria and yourself that betrayed you!” She gestured to his length
WitchFall Unexpected Guest
James hefted me up like one of his sacks of squirrels. He held my mouth so only tiny whimpers could get out as I clawed the back of his hand. Drawing blood. Seeming unfazed, he continued to drag me backward. Straight toward my room. How’d he know? I got my answer once we were inside. The shutters were open wide, indicating my window was the one he’d came through. How long had he been here? The thought that he could’ve been sitting there watching me sleep was unsettling. It made me feel terrifyingly vulnerable. He pushed the bedroom door closed. Hoping it’ll muffle whatever happens in here enough that my parents won’t wake. This is bad. My instincts were crawling. James growled at me. “If you’re loud and you wake them, I’ll rip them apart.” I squeaked. Nodding behind his hand. I could hear the anger in his voice. Feel the fury rolling off him that told m
WitchFall What I've Done
I swallowed. Feeling my gut drop and my mouth go dry. “Wh-why a-a-are you h-here? We already...” “Why am I seeing you for a second time tonight?” He asked thoughtfully. Filling in the gaps for me. I nodded, feeling like my throat was so tight I wasn’t sure I could get the words out. “Whoa...Let’s see...” He rolled his eyes like a child considering what wrongs he’d done for the day. Except he’s considering what I’ve done... Like freeing all his captives. Except one... “Could it be because all you’ve stolen from me?” His gaze landed on me again. Wide eyed enough I couldn’t read him. His features far too relaxed to warn me how badly this conversation could go were I not careful. “I-I didn’t.” He smirked. A dimple dipping into his right cheek. He lifted the cane off the bed and spun it leisurely as he approached me. I ducked to the side, trying to evade the corner but he tossed the
