This Kestrel Creed story was my 2013 NaNoWriMo project.
  You are reading my (March 2017) revision. I've since gone through many revisions.
  Here, I published the prologue and a few early chapters. That's all.
  
  If you wish to read more, contact me privately. I am still interested in feedback - beta reader style. My goal is to cut about 60,000 words from the very fat Beta draft. 
  
  Famous Australian stockman and adventurer Kestrel Creed, along with his lovely protégé and ward Nika Silbersichel, have just six days to stop a fugitive killer from committing an act so heinous that if he succeeds, the whole of the Western United States may well face devastation more horrendous than that caused by the Great War.

Nightmares of Caitlin Lockyer by DemelzaCarlton

Six months ago, Nathan's sister was brutally murdered. Now the former playboy desires only one thing: revenge. Late at night, Nathan trudges down the beach where his sister's body was found. He's searching for answers, but all he finds is a new nightmare: another girl's tortured body. Only this one isn't dead . . . yet. The unlikely hero becomes the prime suspect. Saving Caitlin's life was just the start. Nathan must win her trust and unlock the memories hidden in her nightmares to find out who's really responsible . . .before it's too late. A tiny taste of what's in store: "Stay away from her, Nathan. That girl isn't good for you." Stay away from her? I'd go crazy with worry in a day. "You don't know her." Chris looked grim. "Neither do you. Is there anything you wouldn't do for her?" "Yes," I snapped. "I wouldn't die for her." Chris turned around to stare at me, her mouth hanging open. "Do you want to know why?" I asked steadily. "I wouldn't die for her because I wouldn't be able to protect her any more. What if I missed one of the people who hurt her? I couldn't take that risk. She's too important." * * * * * * * * * * Now an Amazon Top 100 Bestseller, Nightmares of Caitlin Lockyer is available from Amazon, B&N, Apple, Diesel, Kobo and Smashwords. As is the sequel, Necessary Evil of Nathan Miller and the final book in the trilogy, Afterlife of Alanna Miller.

"You're atheist," I remind him. "You don't believe in god." "I believe in you," He murmurs, letting the cigarette hang from his lips. "I believe in whatever you believe." He says, letting the confession roll off his tongue as if it were that simple. As if god, the devil, heaven, hell-as if none of it really had meaning to him. "That's not how it works," I mutter as we walk down a few more alleyways-the city of Manhattan coated in a light blanket of snow. Henry Vitiello had never had anything to pray for, that is, until he met me-the only thing that had ever opened his mind up to the possibility of religion "Isn't it?" He argues, taking the cigarette by his middle and pointer finger before blowing the smoke out. "I'II dip my hands in holy water if it means I could touch you." "You'd probably burn." 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐘 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐎, the reaper. He's a prick. An asshole. A pretentious son of a bitch. He's not perfect. He's not even decent. But he's hers.

"I'm not gonna have sex with you baby. Not yet. Just a little fun with the help of some old toys." He smirked and then it suddenly hit me. He stole the vibrator. "You know, I would rather use an all black one but this pink one will work too. I'm going to show how to use it properly to give you the best orgasms you've ever felt. Can I?" He looks between the belt and the headboard and I realise what he wants to do. Offering my wrists to him, I smile, letting excitement override my nerves. "Promise to make me scream?" He grinned, securely tying my hands to the headboard and tugged a few times to make sure it's tight.

NOTE: THIS STORY IS NOW PUBLISHED. IF YOU ENJOYED, PLEASE SUPPORT ME BY PURCHASING IT ON AMAZON (: https://amzn.to/2HlNuss My story is an ugly one. My name is Aaro Varily, an ex-spy from an agency that will remain nameless. Years ago, I left the agency when I was kicked out, because my boss thought that I was an inappropriate addition to the team. I was "too much of a liability". I left my home, my family, and the person I cared most for in the world. I didn't have a choice. Years later, I had carved my own little niche in life. I began to travel with a young companion, named Veri, and we were doing pretty well for ourselves. My boss contacted me one night, out of the blue, and it caused my blood to run cold. And now I had a decision to make. I could travel the most dangerous path through The Gale, the woods inhabited by crooks, thieves, and worse, to find the girl I had left behind so many years ago. Or I could stay here, with Veri, and pretend none of it ever happened. I think it's obvious which one I picked.

I've Become Like Him by KittenWoman99

"Ahhh!!!" The man's body falls to the floor limp and I fall to the floor out of terror, "Why are you screaming? I saved you from being raped." I look at the man who is holding a gun with a little smile on his face. He holds the gun up to my head and I start crying, "P-Please, p-please don't do this. I-I won't tell anybody." He bends down and I whimper, "I don't think I can let you go. What happened you run and tell in the next three days? You've already seen my face and heard my voice." I shake my head, "I swear I won't tell anybody! I-I don't know anybody!" He looks at me up and down, "I'll give you two choices. I kill you now or you come with me. You can keep me entertained for a while." €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Lyric Dime is a twenty-one year old loner who works in a top tier casino.
