Silenced Genes
School was dismissed just after 11 o'clock. Sirens were blaring as the students were boarding the buses; a fire truck and a couple of police cruisers pulled up to the high school with an ambulance close behind. Many of the students were craning to see out the grimy windows, but the bus pulled away as soon as the last student was on board. Ricky and Mack weren't concerned, they figured someone just set off a fire alarm smoking in a bathroom or something equally as stupid. Other students were panicking, some even crying, while many were posting updates on social media, texting wildly or even calling their parents. Ricky watched the commotion, he thought it was all over reacting nonsense. He and Mack made eye contact, Ricky shrugged. Mack looked back down at his phone slowly shaking his head in bewilderment.

The Werewolf Diaries
Page 1 ONE I’D ALWAYS WELCOMED WAR, BUT IN BATTLE my passion rose unbidden. The bear’s roar filled my ears. Its hot breath assaulted my nostrils, fueling my bloodlust. Behind me I could hear the boy’s ragged gasp. The desperate sound made my nails dig into the earth. I snarled at the larger predator again, daring it to try to get past me.

~Night Terror~ The wind outside howled, rattling against the windows. I felt fear coil in my stomach and slide up my spine.

Alexander and the talking tree.
By the time Iskander had finished his journey, dusk had fallen and the speaking tree had transformed into a lady. Iskander never fully understood the allure of the female sex, as far as he was concerned they lacked the strength and raw vitality of men.

Loving the Hunted
Chapter Two I was sinking into darkness. The inky blackness wrapped itself around me like a suffocating blanket. Then there was a light. A dismal light. And I found myself standing in a beautiful foyer.

The Car That Ate Your Brain
The translucent egg-shaped shuttle glided silently to the curb. A bright light flashed my face, causing my vision to blur and a second later a woman’s gentle voice said, “Welcome aboard, Andrew.”

The Humanoid
Ever had a fear of monsters under your bed? Like you could have sworn you saw what seemed to be a shadow moving down there, or freaked out when you heard a noise under the bed and was scared to look?

The Varcolac's Child
“Don’t you see that I’m trying?” “Yes, mother. But you’re asking entirely too much of me. How can I put together an entire banquet without your help? It was your idea in the first place!”

Evil Unleashed
I had been called in for an emergency meeting to discuss a confidential mission in Verona City located on the outskirts of Montana. Details were sketchy at best but the city was put on an emergency lock-down with members of the Armed Forces standing at the company line fully armed with tanks and RPGs. I knew enough to know the entire city was in severe danger. When I arrived at headquarters my team was already there and dressed in battle gear. I knew it was big as both the Mayor of Miami and Verona City were present. In short, he told us that there were numerous bizarre attacks being perpetrated on the citizens of Verona, this combined with an alarming number of unexplainable injuries and scars made us the first choice to handle the situation.
