Thank you so much, Lisa! I know demons/vampires aren't your favorite story characters, so your comment makes me very happy . I promise next antho will be about 'normal' people, even though it won't be the professor...I guess. Couldn't have done this without your many suggestions and diligent correcting of my commas. Although, I think I'm getting better.
You made my day just because you said you read the story because I wrote it. Thank you so much! And I'm glad you thought it was interesting. You don't necessarily need to read the other stories, to read this one. If this wasn't really your cup of tea, the others won't be either.
As the third and unimportant son of Duke Rothtree, Oliver had gotten away with many things his brothers hadn’t. Maybe that was why he forgot he still had some worth. Through a rich and influential marriage, he could have filled his father’s and elder brothers’ coffers and improve their standing at court. Instead, he had embarrassed them by having an affair with the stable boy.
Oliver’s carefree life ended the night his father’s henchmen tortured Adam to death.

April 24 and 29 are my favorite, even though I won't say no to Barolo. Thank you, for sharing your good month to write with us. Reading it again, I put the plus one on my favorite list too.
Thank you, Lyssa. To be honest, I can hardly believe I actually finished it. Ha, we could always do a monthly renga poem, just for the fun of it, announce it and post it in the Live Poets thread.

Inspired by the clock prompt and ‘High Noon’, the best Western ever IMHO.
A city overcome by fear—and the clock is ticking
One hour to go—and the clock is ticking
An ultimatum issued—and the clock is ticking
Do not forsake me—and the clock is ticking
No friends left—and the clock is ticking
High Noon—tic-toc, tic-toc, tic-toc

Inspired by the ‘perhaps’ prompt, making it an ‘if’ prompt.
If we had stayed home,
the car would have brok
I watched Himmel über Berlin a few weeks ago. When I read the prompt I wrote something completely different before I remembered the film and everything suddenly became easy. Thank you for taking the time to read, like and comment, Lyssa.
