Ammer, Cree, and Mae climbed aboard the tottering carriage.

"Everybody set?" The aged coachman whipped the hurried steeds into motion without waiting for the children to respond.

"What if I said no?" Cree muttered under his breath.

"Quit it, Cree. We have much to discuss." Ammer straightened. He enjoyed being the one in charge. "This is a Delmont carriage. Since the Rogues know w...

At first, it was a simple knock. Both occupants of the house, woman and girl, had been sitting at the dinner table that was placed in the middle of the tiny house.

The woman set down the tea cup that had been prepared by the other, approaching the door.

“Who is it?” She leaned ever so slightly against the door.

“Police.” Her heart skipped a beat. She forcibly ceased all motion in her body.

“J...

"If we get caught, we tell the truth."

"We both agree to lie," Maya finished, her voice a conspiratorial whisper.

Eli stared at her, unsure whether to laugh or protest. Maya was always like this—brimming with mischief, her green eyes flashing with a blend of excitement and danger. But this time, they weren't just playing pranks or sneaking out past curfew. This was different. It was bigger.

"Co...

“I can’t keep doing this bro, I can’t keep lying and keep a straight face at home anymore, I just can’t. I have a future to think about, I’m trying to get my shit together and build a future and you’re hell bent on digging deeper into this shit and dragging everyone around you down in the pits with you, what the fuck happened to you man?”, my brother was right, there was no denting I’d pulled him ...

As we crept around the side of the building and into the alley, Jamie threw a hand out to stop me.

“What?” I whispered.

He glanced behind his shoulder before answering. “If we get caught, we tell them the truth.”

My eyebrows knitted together. “But we agreed to lie!”

“Well, yeah, I know. But I was thinking about it, and it’s just going to come out at some point or another. So why not get it...

Listen, if the police ask about the murder tell them, BUT DONT never mind that just lie, we can’t get a life sentence. Just say that we don’t know nothing about the murder. BANG BANG BANG FBI OPEN UP. Oh shit, remember the plan.

Hey sir what seems to be the problem? FBI: we got a report about a murder in downtown Austin

Do you know about that? Us: h- u- uhhhh n- n- no officer we don’t hehehe. FB...

*PSA!* - So im starting this out with a huge warning. It will be like nothing ive ever written. Kinda got a little insperation and im gonna run with it. It will feature a bit of guy on guy action. So be warned. As well as i do not wish to anger or upset anyone with how it is portrayed.

So hopefully you agree with my love is love antics, without further ado.

Caught

“Mr. Wells?” A strong...

»If we get caught, we tell them the truth.« I sternly said, making sure that there were no arguments about it. »But we agreed to lie!« How lousy to think she would drop and do as I say. »Look, I know what we agreed on but we never thought about the possible consequences. I'm not risking it. I'm not risking your safety.«

»I can protect myself.« She crossed her arms before her chest. Pretty annoyed...

As they got out of the bank, they heard the sirens of the police. They ran with bags full of money on their backs. Down corridors and around alleyways, but for some reason the sirens were only getting louder. They were getting closer!

“Sammy boy!!” Said Ryan as they ran.

“What? Sir!” He said back.

“I don’t usually do this but if we get caught, we tell them the truth! Ok?”

“But sir! We agreed ...

Leora-

Leora ran as fast as she could. She darted down passage ways and past doors and people. She needed to make it to the corridor before anyone else could. She had to do this.

Finally, she arrived in the throne room. In the middle of the night, no on was there. Only the whispers of owls and mice were heard.

She took a deep breath. She couldn’t believe she was here. Why was she here?...
