“How are you, Miss Predge?”
The young woman waved at him. “Well enough. But don’t call me that. I’m head of the company now, remember, Caimjhan?”
The man by the name of Caimjhan bowed. “My apologies. I still haven’t gotten used to the… concept, I should say, in the few hours since your father passed.”
“See to it that you do… and on that topic, he’s nearly gone. I think I’d like anoth

Kate, a college freshman, relaxed in the park nearest her home with a gloriously engrossing mystery novel.
Out of the blue, a cat brushed against her leg, flicking its tail against her before meowing and brushing the other way.

“Aww, don’t cry—you just stepped in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
Jena cradled the cute little senior she’d caught walking around moments ago, stroking her head through the stomach membrane as she felt students and teachers walk on her, unaware of the mimic below.

Pounding at the door.
I’d been left alone by my parents when they went on a business trip for the day, specifically instructing not to disturb them. They hadn’t told me we’d have any visitors. And we lived in the country, so unexpected visits to the Shortstone house were rare.
I, Aiden Shortstone, crept like a ninja to the window, feeling like I had an important mission: to assess the danger to the house.
