Anna has always been afraid of the monster under her bed. She never goes to bed late at night, and she NEVER leaves the bed once she's in it. Her parents always try to encourage her to stay up, but Anna never gives in. In the morning, she always jumps off her bed, scared that the monster will grab her foot, and drag her under. She knows it's there. She hasn't told anyone, and she hasn't ever dared to look under the bed. Not even a peek. One night, she hears a voice...from beneath the bed...

Species Unknown [Book 3: Canis]
There's something lurking in the woods. Sent to investigate the rumors of human experimentation surrounding an esteemed genetics laboratory in the middle of the Northern California forest, Special Agent Anna Volkova quickly realizes that this new assignment has her in over her head. With women vanishing, and the townspeople deathly afraid of the woods blanketing the small town of Blackwater, she knows this area isn't nearly as innocent as it may seem. The forest is hiding something, and she'll do whatever it takes to find out what. What she doesn't realize, however, is how far some people will go to keep their sins, and everyone who knows about them, buried. ~*~ Sickening cracks of bone filled the once-silent room, accompanied by the rapid beat of my heart and his echoing cries of anguish. Without warning, his head snapped up, and I could finally see his face clearly. My breath caught in my throat. His once warm amber eyes faded, tainted with a blood red that slowly dominated his irises, painting a feral crimson gaze that was now focused entirely on me. ---------- A new chapter will be posted every Friday!
