《Revival Factory & Other Novellas》The Nymphs of Mosaic (Ch.20)
Advertisement
Local cops in Anderson Island weren’t used to of handling murder cases or suicide cases. Enforcement was supervised by Washington State Police Department and their representatives were cops from Tacoma Police Department.
This was the same place where notorious Brymer had been arrested. And there were the same cops who had played major role in arresting him and sending his back behind the bars.
"What do you think, Warner? A man is found dead inside a phone booth." Olliston told to his companion.
"I can make nothing of this thing. Heart attack is what comes to my mind after watching this." Warner said when he looked at wide open eyes of Dormer who looked to have died peacefully, "He had a clean death."
Jon Olliston still wasn’t saying anything while other cops around him were whimpering.
"What still does make you believe this is a murder?" Warner asked him, "You saw we've got no fingerprints anywhere. There are no damn fingerprints even on glasses of this booth!"
"I support your idea because I am also presuming the same. A man's silence doesn’t always mean he has ruse or disagreement in his mind."
"Doubts? Does it mean doubt?"
"Why doesn’t it? This man was mute and he is found dead inside a phone booth! If he was a man who could speak and died in phone booth then I would have considered this as an accident. But a mute man dies in phone booth. Mr. Alford needs to be informed about this thing."
"The old man is demented as fuck." Warner told him, "He may get insane and if he gets insane then we may lose some vital information which is inside his mind."
"Let him lose his mind. Being part of secrets is nothing but danger." Olliston looked at him.

"Why don’t you leave this job if you hate it so much?" Warner asked out of blue, "You don’t seem to be enjoying all this violence, mysteries and whatsoever."
"I have made my mind already. I may leave this department next month. While you and Benca have a much harder time here, I will be in Texas. I am aware of drug cartels there but it will be better than this active state. I don’t care which city in Texas they do transfer me to. I just don’t want to stay in Washington."
"And till that day you will remain this half – hearted?" Warner raised his voice which made him stand out from whimpering of other men.
"Hey, did you find whose number he had dialed before he died?" he asked another cop who had been listing number as much as he could.

The Darkness of the Sun
In the island of Draca, the word Possession has a singular meaning – the Possessed are taken to King Iretsa’s castle, a journey from which no one returns, alive or dead. When Jubi’s beloved father is Possessed, she determines to save him. But her quest is upended when she finds that her father has joined the monsters. He demands that she does the same. If she consents, immortality-in-dribbles will be hers; a refusal will mean deathlessness - of the less enticing kind.

A Ghost in the House of Iron

The Ironborn wizards of Ylvemore thought they had won the war against the fae folk generations ago. They were wrong. *TEASER* He sighs, running a hand through his hair. The hand that just a moment ago was holding a small ball of fire. A couple stray embers flicker through the strands, but somehow they don't get singed. He catches me staring and I end up gazing speechlessly into his blue eyes for a moment. I clear my throat, blinking. "Your... The fire. I'm just not used to seeing that, still," I say. "I always expect you to... to burn." "I am burning," he says softly. . Updated weekly on Mondays. Also available on Wattpad!

Who Fixes Books Anyway?
On the pretense of a raise, the relatively new employee Pernie is called in to talk with her superiors. NOTE: This is a short story written for a class I took recently. As a result of deadlines, it does not possess the quality (or length) that I would like and is rather thrunkated. Perhaps sometime far in the furture I'll fix it up. For now, I have much more important things to work on, such as my other fiction.
