chapter 3 part 8



“Hello?”

“Ah, the stalkee.”

“Oh, the stalker.”

“Don’t sound quite so disappointed.”

“Don’t be so silly. I was just about to phone you and …”

“…I know, put me off? Well if you were then I would like to change your mind.”

“I rather suspect that you won’t want to change my mind.”

“Aha now that sounds highly promising. May I just say a little something?

“You may”

“May I just say thank you personally for a wonderful morning?”

“You may, and thank you.”

“Well you need to open the front door”

“What do you mean?”

Well I can’t say thank you personally if you don’t open the front door.”

“What do you mean?”

“Open the door and you’ll see.” The phone went dead and Geraldine just stood for a moment, not entirely sure what was happening. “The other person has cleared. The other person has cleared”

Chapter 2, part 2 This month it was their turn to host and they had decided to prepare a spicy lentil soup, a Chateau Briand as the main course, followed by a fruit pie and custard, with some fine cheeses and biscuits to conclude. The rolls for accompanying the soup were rolled, kneaded, prepared and sitting on the side of the kitchen, waiting for their turn in the oven. The lentils had soaked and were now marinating in the spices ready for their transformation into soup. The butcher had delivered the meat, and the cheeses were resting in the larder. As he expected, all preparations were going exactly to plan. He had not planned for the diversion in his pocket however. The pager vibrating quietly in his pocket could potentially ruin the evening. It would require his attention be diverted from assisting his wife, and his focus to be elsewhere. “Mary, sorry dear. Just something I have to pop into the study for. Back in a jiff.” “Well don’t be long, the pastry needs doing and you know th

Day Eight The Best Laid Plans of Vampyres The four food thralls were moaning and complaining about stomach cramps. “Shit,” Vanessa said, “The one thing I forgot about was human food for the thralls, and then will need things like toothpaste, toothbrushes, toilet paper, the girls will need sanitary towels and the like. Oh shit oh shit.” “So go shopping, take the Felcan, she might like the change of scene.” “I will need a car, and I want to go south to the big Mall in Bristol, I am more likely to get lost in a crowd there. I shall have to use the housekeeper’s car when she gets here. As to money, I shall just have to get some one to give me some cash, that’ll be easy.” “You could just get the housekeeper to get what you need, she can think Lord Addled Brain has some house guests.” “That won’t work Eldred, someone is paying the bills and they will wonder why there are suddenly guests. Amanda is ok, she has been going home every day for some good old fashioned home

Day Three - Pets. Part 2 Amanda woke with the scent still in her nostrils, it was intriguing, what was it, who was it, was it another of her kind, a male? She wanted to go and search, and to do so in her feline form was the most likely to be successful, but feline form in the full of day was not wise. She knew that she had gotten away with it yesterday, but she had been holed up most of the day digesting the lamb she had eaten the night before. She had not been running around the countryside. She got up and threw her dress on and left, shouting that she was ‘not hungry’ to her mother who insisted that she have breakfast. She sniffed as she went, and her nose took her along the path towards the old Mission building. The scent was strong here, she prowled around and considered a change to her feline self, but a car going slowly past in the lane dissuaded her from the change. Ekdred’s eyes opened with a snap and he quickly slid the slab to one side and with a single bou
