![]() ![]() ![]() That was a pretty good stunt you pulled there in the cabin, but we both know you couldn’t have gone far. The man with the gun was circling, calling out for him. He held the cross so tightly now that, despite its relative size, he could not feel it anymore it had become a part of him, one with his body. His mind traveled far away from the grove in which he was currently imprisoned, far away from the foreign surroundings of the mountain, far away from the cabin from which he had just escaped, and far away from the stranger who had stolen him away from his mother’s eyes and father’s lectures, and he prayed that God would save him from this monster he did not know. The sound of movement forced his eyes to reopen, and he strained through the blurry darkness to study if the man with the gun was looking his way. Thomas held his breath and wondered if the scattered rain drops and overgrown ferns would be enough to hide his body from the man hunting him ten feet away.Īs the raindrops moved more swiftly from their heavenly courts toward the softening dirt, he clutched his hands tighter around the metal cross now tearing into his palms and closed his eyes, trying to imagine his mother and father and brothers and sisters and all his school friends and all the people he never thought he cared about but now realized he may never see again. ![]() The Human Obsession, releasing end of November, early December My post with a sneak peak of The Grand Delusion ![]()
