Tigress Cut Scene 2
It’s been a while since I uploaded last- It’s been a learning experience juggling writing, college, my part-time job, my young adult group at church, and this blog. So often I tell myself ‘This week. This week I will upload.’ and then the week finishes and I realize with a…

Chapter 8
Rowan I look at the sky visible through the leaves, only to see a noticeable cloud of smoke curling up and away. It’s weak, meaning the fire is probably still not going, but it’s huge. And that sends a pang of terror into my chest. I break into a sprint…

Tigress: Chapter 7
Tigress Hollow. That’s the only word I can come up with to describe what I’m feeling in this moment. After the panic wore off, grief set in, and I’ve spent about ten minutes just trying to keep from crying, then rage took over, and I ended up mutilating a tree,…

Tigress: Chapter 6
Tigress I had kept my promise and woken Rowan up halfway through the night. It took me a while to actually enter some kind of state that could be considered sleeping though. And now I’m lying on the ground, eyes closed and mind asleep, but at the same time all…

Tigress: Chapter 2
Tigress I resist the urge to tug at my clothes uncomfortably. I never enjoyed formal wear. Someone else may, but I was never comfortable in a floor length skirt and crop top, let alone slippers, face paint, and jewelry. Luckily I was always able to get away with just a…

Tigress: Chapter 1
Rowan, Eleven Years Later I silently walk between the two guards, wrists chained together. I would be fighting them if I hadn’t already and failed. No, attacking and escaping is out of the question. I realized I’d have to wait to find a chance to escape some time ago. So…

The Never-Ending Cycle
Sand. Heat. Blood. Sweat. Tears. It’s the same never-ending cycle. Wood splinters. My knuckles bleed. I pick out the bits of wood and toss them away. The wall is replaced, reinforced with iron. I wrap my hands firmly and flex my fingers. A powerful blow makes the wall shiver. I…
