Roses Manor, Chapter 27

There was a scream nearby as the freezing water drenched the group. The image of the princess flickered and went out abruptly, the ball of water dropping back into the pool. Seizing her chance as chaos erupted, Gabriella pulled the oil out of her bra, tore the packet open with her teeth, and crouched down […]

The champions moved toward the stairs and Gabriella fell into line, images of cows to the slaughter coming to mind. She walked up, sliding her hand along the railing, tempted to turn back and look at Graham. But no, they couldn’t know she was nervous. “This way!” Daniel Ford said as he stood at the […]

They didn’t plan to set up comms until they got to Roses Manor, so it was just her and Graham in the car for an hour as they drove to Weston. Gabriella didn’t mind, she liked Graham.

Gabriella woke up to a voicemail from the sobbing woman. “Kenzie…” she heard between wails. “Kenzie…” It was chilling, and she listened twice as she brushed her teeth in the headquarters bathroom, then went out to the living room. She had been solo overnight for a mostly uneventful shift, but James was supposed to be […]

Sure enough, her voicemail was empty in the morning. Of course it was. It would have been too convenient for the woman to call back to cry into a recording. Gabriella still wasn’t feeling great, even after eight hours of mostly uninterrupted sleep, and for a second, she considered using one of her growing stock […]
