The gnawing of a serrated blade sheering through wood and the grinding of a file making small adjustments created a cadence outside the carpenter’s workshop. Ezekiel wiped his sawdust covered leather gloves in vain against his dusty leather apron before scrutinizing his project. Alongside his partner, they diligently worked to fulfill an order of aContinue reading “Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 14: Healing in Warchester”

Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 12: Synu’s Grace
Legs limp and useless, Targath’s shoulders throbbed from the strain of his own weight while being dragged by the arms. Through hazy vision he watched the light grow dimmer, and the doors made of rusted iron bars drifted by. Behind him, a door creaked open, and he was dragged inside before being unceremoniously deposited inContinue reading “Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 12: Synu’s Grace”
Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 9: A Dragon’s Heart
Frineer snorted awake to his name on the vehicle of a pleading roar reverberating throughout his cave. Seeing a blurry Utiss canter inside with Kilena hugging her back, he peered quizzically at them before they took refuge behind him. An explanation to his unspoken question came when a dragon of charcoal scales followed them. TheContinue reading “Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 9: A Dragon’s Heart”
Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 7: Your Turn

Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 5: Entry Denied
“I never thought I would be passing through these gates so soon after my list visit,” Kilena said with a sense of astounded disbelief. The drawbridge echoed her footsteps back to her, and that of her companion’s lighter strides. Targath held his silence, but spared a look of intrigue in her direction. Ahead of themContinue reading “Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 5: Entry Denied”
Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 2 Escape
All of Warchester rested in a deep slumber, much the same as the last time Kilena confronted Lucy and Sebastion, when she killed their master. She doubled her efforts and quickened her pace, throwing one leg in front of the other. Her armor clanked noisily with every step. She burst out from the dilapidated archway,Continue reading “Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 2 Escape”
Miss Knight Book 2 – Chapter 1 -Hunted
“Goodnight, Targath,” Kilena kindly wished him, settling the side of her head on a thin pillow of straw. A scoff replied, and Targath turned over to put his back to her from the other side of the cramped floor.
Kilena fondly smiled, knowing Targath was upset by her tenacity and refusal to sleep on the bed. He insisted she claim the bed for herself to have a better rest. She argued that sleeping on the floor was preferable to the ground. In the end, the bed and its mattress of straw on wooden slats remained empty. That heated disagreement left them both sleeping on the floor almost back to back.
