Corey kept saying, Are you sure? tentatively, as if he didn’t want to insult our intelligence, but he couldn’t help thinking there had to be a logical explanation. Hayley just stared at me.When I fina...
Corey was already gone, heading for the stairs again. He took them two at a time. Then he pitched forward, hands clutching his head as he let out something between a moan and a strangled cry.Daniel ra...
Corey’s fine, Daniel said, as if reading my thoughts.I’m sorry, I said. I’m not holding up very well.Yes, you are. We just need to get this done, then you can have a breakdown. I’ll join you.I smiled....
Could Ashyn do the same in the same situation? Likely not. Heroes made the bold moves. Heroes risked their lives. Others kept the troops at ease, tended the wounded, fed the hungry, and soldiered on,...
Cwn Annwn, I said. I think I’m finally pronouncing that right. Welsh. So many letters. So few vowels.
Daniel and I helped him up.Oww…, he said.There’d have been a bigger if he hadn’t swerved, I said. That would not look good on your obituary. Survived a helicopter crash, armed kidnappers, and three d...
Daniel and I kept running. We could see the ridge now. Safety. Just get--Something whizzed past me.Dan--! I whirled, shouting a warning, only to see him stagger backward, a dart embedded in his should...
Daniel knelt and held out a bottle. I thought it was pop, then saw the label.Beer? I said.It helps. I knew his meds had dissolved, so I grabbed a few from the store.Corey took it and twisted off the c...
Daniel turned to the page as I looked over his shoulder. One word caught my eye.Witches? I said. Shouldn’t this have been sent to me?Not witches, he said, pointing. Witch-hunters. An Italian cult of w...
Did she ask about anyone else?Oh, everyone, Brendan said, rushing on. Names, friendships, hobbies. She was really interested in our hobbies. When we talked about the teams and stuff, she asked why Raf...
Did you use a chainsaw? Joey said. I seem to recall you like chainsawa.There wasn't a power outlet. Clay turned to me. That's what I want for Father's Day, darling. A gas powered chainsaw.
Drinks and snacks on me, apparently. Chow down, guys.I’m a little more interested in finding a phone, I said. And figuring out if that open front door means someone’s here.Nah, Corey said. They were s...
Erau frati vitregi, dar mai strans legati decat oricare alti frati de sange pe care-i cumosteam eu.
Everyone goes, I said. The whole class.Yeah, I know. Hayley asked if I was going, but I kind of figured that didn’t exactly count as an invitation. Unless I went with her, which I’d really rather not....

Expecting to see a Doberman slavering at the fence, i followed his gaze to a little puff of white fur, the kind of dog women stick in their purses. I wasn't even barking, just staring and dancing in p...
Faith was a strange thing, Moria reflected as she walked over to Tyrus. No one would argue that the ancestors did not watch over them and could not influence the living world, but customs changed, and...
Figures, Corey muttered. Survive a forest fire, helicopter crash, and killer eels, only to slip on a rock. That’s what you get for trying to take charge, Hayley said.No kidding.
Finally, he pushed back the chair and exhaled.He's alive, I said. Your dad's alive.He loooked up at me and, I couldn't help it-- I threw my arms around his neck and hugged him. Then I realized what I...
