While frying bacon on the pan, the way I knew my dad liked it, I couldn't help but think about last night and the food. There was a sound behind me and I turned to see my dad walk into the kitchen wearing a bathrobe over his pajamas. "Good morning, Dad," I said. "What's with the cheerful voice th...
All I could find was the old smell of her. But I couldn’t catch a new one, a fresh one or one of her leaving the castle. It almost drove me mad with anger and fury. We walked back through the forest and climbed the fence. When we got to the other side we ran across a field while I tried desperate...
The desmans packed a lot of food and herbs for them for the trip. As the time came to say goodbye, Sara kissed them both on their cute noses. They looked a little sheepish afterwards and stared at each other while shaking their heads.“Now why, why, why would she do such a thing?” Sara heard them ...
She was about the same age as Sascha, only nineteen and worked at the hospital as a porter to make money enough to travel, she told us, when we were shown into the kitchen."I want to see the world before I start studying," she said and fed one of the dogs a treat.

Scared of what was going to happen. Was I about to change Jason’s destiny? Had I already done it by opening the drawer? Was that even possible? Could I change someone’s course of life? Even if it was written in the book of “meant-to-be”?Jason’s mom walked slowly and carefully. Every time she hear...
He pulled her shapeless dress over her head and then he pulled off her bra and panties. He was always so gentle with her and made sure she was comfortable. What she liked the most about him was that he never seemed to dislike her or what she looked like. He didn't look at her with disgust like sh...
I didn't care that our evening ended badly or that he might still be mad at me."I need your help," I said. "Victor is missing. I don't know what to do.""Take it easy, Emma. Stay where you are. I'll be right there."Three minutes later, he stormed through my front door. "Emma. Are you alright? How ...
Nina turned ten years old doing what she had done dozens of times a day the last four years; being raped by old fat guys who especially asked for her because of her blonde hair and fair skin. She was a specialty, she'd realized that by now. A pearl in the sea. The people keeping her locked up was...
It wasn't the baby that kept her awake, at least not tonight. And it wasn't her husband Erik who was snoring next to her, either. No, it was the thought of Tim being all alone at his house now that his wife was gone. Yes it was sad and horrible what happened to her, but to be honest Nora had neve...
Except for Christoffer who slept like a baby and never even noticed that Victor kept having nightmares and woke up screaming in the darkness. I did what I could to calm him down. When I asked him the next morning what he dreamt, he simply said…"That I didn't have a face."We took off on our trip t...
