Day 17: The Right Rite by sumedokin

_Wedgie / Spank_ Something was in the air, and Auderinus Nuarawidos did not care for it. Not one bit. For the past week and a half he had been staying in his new country estate, he couldn’t shrug off the odd feeling of being watched. He heard creaking that came out of nowhere. O...

Chapter 3

_Tiny / Huge_ It was a cloudy night. Melisse looked up from the tower balcony at the moon’s red glow. Above her, the star-speckled veil reached towards the horizon and beyond. From the top of the Demon Lord’s Castle the world seemed to roll out before her. It was lonely up th...

Day 22: The Burden of the Meek by sumedokin

Chapter 3

_Reluctant / Humiliation_ The stranger lay in her cot when I entered the infirmary. Snugly bedded. Eyes shut. She didn’t move so much as a muscle. I slid the door closed, “Good evening.” No answer. I inched towards the side of her bed, then nudged her on her shoulder. “...

_Armbinder_ “Hey? Cecil? You in there, buddy?” “Hmmm?” His gaze lifted from the bottom of the glass, at the bartender who poured him the drink no less than ten minutes ago. “Your brew’s getting cold. Have you even touched it?” She asked. “...I don’t know.” He uttered wi...

_Comfort / Soothe_ Call me Evy. You may hate what I am and what I do. My job is to earn the complete trust of strangers, make them believe I am their best friend. Their loyal partner. And when they need me the most, when it suits them the least, I stab them in the back. Does...
