A bit of a tease this week as my flash follows on directly from that of the gorgeous Doris O'Connor's which you can catch here here
This is my bit...
The voice...
“Oho, what have we here?
She jumped. What did he think…he…they…whoever think they had here? A banana with hair
arms and legs?
No not a banana, they
were as scarce as rain in the Sahara, and she was not yellow. Not yet though if
she stayed where she was much longer, thee was no telling.
Darkness.
Get rid of the darkness.
She had no idea why, but that light, that precious draw her
out of the darkness light was a lode stone.
"Ele…anor…sweet…precious Eleanor. Are you there?”
Oh god that voice. That sexy as sin, dark as the best chocolate,
smooth as silk and any other cliché imaginable voice called her, teased her and
drew her to…
To what?
The light, that
precious never to be taken for granted light.
The only thing to keep you sane.
Keep you grounded.
Save you…
She took a step.
“Come back to me…”
Him.
She turned…
“No to me…” Who was that?
Eleanor. Enough is enough. Do as I say, I need you here, the
light can wait.
He paused and the
world waited.
“It’s over, you’re too young to die.”
She turned her back on the light and fell into his arms.
And catch all the other #TT here
Happy Reading,
Love R x
You know how much I love this :-)
