A Long Journey Off A Short Pier
6 Short Stories
by Anthony Renro
Synopsis
EXCERPT: SHe
Flara, who knew that tone, who knew what that tone meant when most guys sounded like that, got dressed, grabbed the cash; and, without saying a word to Tim, stepped out into the humid night. She stood there a moment, cash in hand, fighting back tears, looking into the darkness of a nearby alley. There was a soft yellow glow coming from that direction. She went down to investigate it, and that’s when the man slinked out of the darkness, and grasped her in his warm tight grasp. She was powerless to move, as he sank his rainbow colored fangs into her neck, and drained her of her estrogen. When he was finished, he snapped her neck and then walked out of the alley with her body. He walked up to Tim’s door and knocked.
“I told you to go away!” Tim screamed from the bathroom.
He heard the knock again.
“Dammit. Some people just won’t listen,” he replied, as he rushed out of the bathroom to the front door. He opened it, ready to scream at Flara for not leaving him alone, but stepped back in shocked surprise instead. Flara was leaning against the wall beside his door, dead lifeless eyes looking up at him.
A second later, Tim saw movement, a golden glow; and then his world turned black.

I know how you feel, Brenda:)
I really need to give this author a try, I have several of his books that have been offered free and you like them all…lol. Will add this one to the pile. 🙂 I think next year needs to be a read my own books year. 🙂
Many of them are shorter so they don’t take too long to read. Anthony is fine tuning his writing and the stories keep getting better too.
Thanks for the post and all the support.
