In The Cottage
Carrie stood on the front steps watching her husband’s coach drive away. Smiling as it made its way down the lane through the twin pillars of brick. When it drove out of sight, she picked up her skirts and ran for the old barn, holding onto the hat pinned in her hair. Stopping outside the large open doors she took ten deep breaths calming herself before entering. Walking straight down the aisle to the tack room, and there he was. She stood in the doorway and watched him sitting there with his back to the door, he was soaping reins today. She watched as he slowly pulled the length of leather through the rag in his hand, and her belly clinched in need.

A Dangerous Game
Walking home from the bar after a few strong drinks may not have been the best idea, yet she did it anyway. Living close to a local dive bar had its advantages. Stepping out into the night, a slight breeze swirling around her as she stood under the dim light of the streetlamp. She took a deep breath of the crisp air, checking her phone and seeing it light up with the message she was waiting for; ‘2-minute head start. Go.’ She smiled to herself knowing he was watching…waiting.

Blood Coloured Flames
CHAPTER 1 She smells the smoke first. With autumn setting in and stripping the forest bare, Eda wandered further than usual from home, looking for berries and roots to add to her aunt and uncle’s winter supply. But now her head snaps up, dark hair flying in her face as she catches the scent of something burning. She grips the handle of her basket till her knuckles turn white. She strains her ears but can’t hear anything; her nose has always been strongest, the witch’s blood in her veins helping her to smell further, hear more, every sense heightened.
