Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel chapter 7.4 (wip)

Mira decided to go for a walk and look around for Giovanni. She searched the house and the lab, but he wasn’t there. She searched the sheds, the greenhouse, and the gardens, but he wasn’t there. She ran up and down the orchards, but still could not find him. Then she wandered out into the wilderness that surrounded the estate. She walked and walked, forgetting why she was there and what she was looking for. Mid-day came along and Mira thought briefly of Giovanni hiding away from the sunlight, and remembered her reason for wandering. As Mira looked all around her, she realized that she was lost. She twirled around several times and noticed nothing seemed recognizable to her and that there was no sign of a path nearby.

Eternal Curse: Battleground 8.2 (wip)

For years, Felix and the demon battled one another, with the demon appearing in a new host body each time. The Demon would come in and out of Felix’s life just to bait him and annoy him. When Felix’s wife’s mortality had reached its end during the final days of the sixteenth century, it was that same demon that came to his side for comfort. The demon preached to Felix about the frailty and weakness of humans, and then spoke of the corrupted grandeur of an eternal life built on the pursuit of power. Felix had no idea of his true power and potential, and thus became a puppet to this villainous possessor. With the demon’s guidance and directive, Felix set out to destroy all others like him, so no one would remain to protect the humans he now looked down upon.

It’s Like the Full Moon- chapter 6.3.# (wip)

Teddy was about fifteen minutes into game and totally focused on beating the boss on a level he’d been stumped on for weeks when the door rang and several loud and rapid pounds crashed against his front door. “Teddy let us in, our hands are full of stuff,” yelled Lisa’s exhausted voice from the other end. “I know you’re probably just in there playing video games, get up,” she shouted once more just as the door was thrust open in front of her.

Teddy stared at the overloaded and unusually simple looking Lisa, and almost began to laugh. She was carry a covered casserole dish in her arms across her chest, with several paper bags in her right hand, and what looked like a jug of wine in the other. Under her right arm was a small box of napkins that were squished in. “Need any help there, Lisa?” asked Teddy smugly.
