Old Home, Part 5
The hood kicked up into the air as the pickup rammed into a stray revenant that had been limping along amidst the cactus. "Woo!" Kinsey yelled, pumping her fist in the air and flicking her wiper blades. "Teach you to run the Border! Yeehaw!" Neil...
Old Home, Part 4
It was a surreal sensation. Neil stood there in that kitchen, an alien expression of indifference crossing his face. For a moment, he had been a machine. For a moment, just before landing the killing blow--he had been disconnected from empathy,...
Old Home, Part 3
Neil clambered up to the second floor hall, his undead pursuers hot on his heals. They ran maddeningly, shuffling onto all fours and padding after him like dogs up the stairs. _Think, you're cornered, think. Don't go to your room, you locked it--it'll...
Old Home, Part 2
Despite the monstrous, pulsing infection running through his forearm, Neil maintained a degree of clarity, that told him to be cautious, as he stepped out into the hall. Some ungodly elevator music was playing faintly as he poked the door open and...
HIVE Mother
"You're not getting away, this time." came her melodious voice, breaking the silence of the alley, as he lay there amidst newspapers, fending her off uselessly with one pink, human hand raised to shield himself. The Alpha picked him up off the ground,...
HIVE Mother - Chapter 2
Lupa might have been a good cop, once--before the change. She didn't really know, or care now--but it was an ironic thought as her new baby trampled one of the Detroit precinct's police cars--smashing in its windows with his back legs, and crashing...

Doggy smells filled the air--and she caught sight of her husband at last--warming his hands over a barrel of burning trash. Her three oldest boys circled and greeted the newcomer that had joined their mother, sniffing each other's butts, hackles raised...
HIVE Mother -- Chapter 4
Lupa's nails scratched the metal vent shaft as she crawled along its inside, trailing her tail in the dust, as her ears came to rest flat against the cold ceiling. Her eyes dilated, yellow and glowing, as the buzzing of the distant furnace radiated...
Essence in the Fur
Breasts of the babe, touch of the fur... It's the illusion young men chase now, It's a look some would put on. I'm the dreaming victim of the Essence in the Fur. Hot and cold, wet nose, warm breath, slippery tongue-- And the smell of dog. The...
Doggie Date-Care
"Are you kidding, Madison? This is your thing?" I smirked, looking at the dog bed and tennis-ball-fuzzed chew toys sitting there in the corner of the room, on the hardwood floor, sun shining in from the glass sliding door. "Will you try it with me?...
The Wild One's Rapture
The clawed hand reached out at the pair of women from a baggy brown robe sleave, enticing them forward. "Two eager, curious young ladies now. What brings you down this dark alley at such a strange time? Curiosity--or be you spies, sent by the Watch...
The Old Hag and Her Dinner
I awoke then, amidst the fumes of her foul cooking, in a dark and dingy basement of some old cottage, to the sound of her cackling, as she took a spade and stirred her brew, saying to me-- "All's well, and just the last ingredient, to make this meal...
