  1. Left alone Gabrielle carefully slid out from under Cai and lay down next to him as she had before. This time he took her in his arms and there was some of the old strength there. The heat of the fever was subsiding, leaving a lethargy that showed in his eyes and the lazy way his fingers toyed with her hair. He smiled and it seemed as though her heart would burst with a pain that was unexpected and inexplicable. “What’s wrong?” “Nothing.” “I see a shadow in your eyes.”
  2. The cave had a magical feel, with the flickering candles and the screen of ivy shutting it off from the outside world quite effectively. The weather and the candle flame made it warm and cosy and inviting. Cai was sitting up, crossways on the bed, his back against the wall. He was sipping the herbal brew with a sour look on his face. “This is vile you know.” “I can smell it from here. Are you sure it’s good for you?” “If Lee says so then it is.” “You trust her
  3. Fortunately it was not too long before Leelany returned with water in her tin and herbs in her pouch and as she set them to brew Gabrielle watched her, her heart aching within her. “Will he be alright?” “Between you and your healer friend you are doing your best to ensure that he is not.” “I know how you feel about us Lee, but frankly I don’t care. I asked you a question and I am waiting for a reasonable reply.” “Hah, so your mask slips. Where is the sweet innoc
  4. Poor poor Blake. Mental illness is worse than physical because it is so stygmatised and difficult to see. Blake is in a terrible situation which I can't see a way out of. I hope they get together though and heal each other
  5. Hmmm... iteresting indeed Poor Blake, he really is in a bad way isn't he? THis is a fantastic story
  6. It's Faboulous chapter. It had me on the edge of my seat. What a fabulous description of a panic attack. I've never had one myself but it was so elievable. Both of them are still harbouring secrets and I don't know what Haze's is but I don't think that Blake's is going to be resolved very easily
  7. Awesome smile
  8. Aww Sorry I spoil your make-up hun. You'd better get the tissues ready for the next chapter. A large glass of something highly alcoholic might help too.I am going to finish posting Red Gold this week and will be starting a new story which I hope will bring more smiles than tears and another character I think will be almost as popular to Brdige
  9. Bridge is my favorite characters I have ever written. It's the strength and playfulness that surmounts the frailty. Right from the first time I met him I have loved him to bits. I never know how a story is going to go before I write it and it was hard to take him down so far. I'm glad you love him too and I won't make you wait too long to find out what happens next
  10. Yeah the next chapter is a killer I'm glad you're still liking it second time around Thanks for the review Cia, I know you're busy and it's very much appreciated
  11. Phew is it hot in here. I LOVE the hairstyle and the rest of the picture too Marzipan I am exactly the same. When I have something I almost know I can't rest until I know it. Like seeing someone on TV and not remembering their name or what film they were in. Thank the Gods for Google Looking good
  12. I second that
  13. It’s almost eleven o’clock. Where has the day gone? I can’t put it off any more. I have to go to Bridge now. I realise with some surprise that I am scared; my stomach is full of ash. I don’t hear any laughter today, when I enter my apartment, although there are voices coming from the bathroom. When I open the door I am surprised to find all three of them in the tub. Little curls of steam are rising from the surface of the water. “Luma.” The light that comes into Bridge’s eyes when he sees
  14. On my way back to my suite I meet Chancey. “Is everything alright, My Lord?” “Alright?” “You look... upset, My Lord.” “Upset? No... no, I’m fine. Can you bring breakfast to my room? None of us ate much dinner last night.” “No. I noticed.” He says with a concerned frown. “Is... everyone okay?” “We’re fine thank you. Could you just bring breakfast?” “What about Alex and Sam?” “Alex and Sam?” “You asked for them to be prepared for ten o’clock and it’s ten past.” “Hel. I h
  15. I just have a real thing for men who look like women. I don't have any interest in women who look like men. Maybe I'm gayer than I thought.

    Hehe, yeah it was really fun to write about this character through the eyes of people who were all pissed off with him. I have always been interested in how people perceive people and situations and how wrong they can be. I'm glad you enjoyed the story

    It's hard to say. My short stories tend to come to me complete. The only sequel I have EVER written is Enigma II. I think that if I tried to write a sequel I would lose the sponineity and it wouldn't workANyway, I'm glad you like the story and I love your reviews

    Thank you I'm glad you liked this one. I wrote it a while ago and it just poured out. It started with a figure...Ephraim and kind of grew from there. One of these days I am going to write something sweet and light but the darkness is in me and it keeps slipping out.
  22. Ephraim is an enormous success. He's a well known model, is about to launch his own fashion collecton which is receiving a lot of good attention. But in the middle of that is a gaping hole in his life that can only be filled by going back to the beginning
  23. Joe was angry, very angry: so were Ben, Sean, Luke and Isobel. Although they were angry for very different reasons, they were all angry with the same person – Ephraim. At that particular point they were all hunting for him, baying for blood. He couldn’t have cared less. He was letting himself in through the back door of the house as everyone else was converging on the front. Isobel was angry with Ephraim because he had stood her up. They were supposed to have met for dinner and then a movie a
  24. I don't think that anyone in Luma's stable had become childlike. Bridge has always been that way.. he's fey ie faery, Star is certainly not childlike, he's getting more and more manlike. If you are talking about Serif... all I can do is giggle. Serif is a force of nature. Think about the name The Fall was a long time before the pyramids As for Luma's house... it doesn't exist so it doesn't have an architect... that's why new rooms can be added just by bending reality. It changes and grows according to Luma's will
