"When I … Continue reading Tunnels – a flash fiction story
What goes around- A flash fiction
The knock on the door made me freeze. The bar had closed up over an hour ago even though Reiner hadn’t kicked me out yet. The large man behind the door cast his gaze in my direction, an eyebrow raised enquiringly. “Don’t look at me, I’m not expecting anyone.” I shrugged and went back to … Continue reading What goes around- A flash fiction
