Hi and welcome to this week's Eight sentences. Today, because we've just had Halloween, I am sharing eight from a spooky story I wrote for inclusion in 'The House of Erotica's anthology 'Witching Hour' My story is called 'Hidden From View:
MY EIGHT:
It was impossible to make out
anything other than dark clothing on the short ride there so Sophie leaned into
Liam just happy to be going somewhere special.
Liam paid the cab driver when
they arrived and they started walking up the driveway which was lit up with
ghoulish lanterns of red and green. Paper pumpkins hung from a small apple tree
not far from the front door. The house looked dark as they approached and fake
cobwebs hung across the door frame. When Sophie rang the doorbell a howling wolf
could be heard from inside and the red outline of a skull lit up in the front
window.
Camilla opened the door wearing a
black furry cat suit, her figure accentuated by the tight fabric. Whiskers had
been carefully drawn onto her face and she wore furry ears on top of her head.
“Hi!” she beamed, “Come on in!”
