Never Say Never by J.S. Douglas

Huzzah! A second story for the week!

As I said in my previous post, I promised to release short stories every Tuesday, and then I didn’t make my last few because I was at the tail-end of my book. But now, the first draft is done, and I am working on my edits. Hurrah!

So, this week you get two short stories. They are both ultra-short, but hopefully, they still manage to horrify.

This one was inspired by a prompt from my friend, Tami. She sent me the words, “Never say never.”

Never Say Never

by J.S. Douglas

“Never say never,” Vanessa whispered, her hand sliding cool duct tape over George’s mouth. His wide eyes stared at her, his trembling body completely encased in a duct tape cocoon. She took two steps back, watching those brown irises of his as he tracked her movements. Then, she began her chant.

The End

I hope you enjoyed the brief, Tweet-size story! See you next time!
