Be My Valentine…Snack

Every Saturday (or Sunday), writers post seven sentences of LGBTQ+ fiction at their blogs. It can their own. It can be someone else’s. It just needs to be LGBTQ+.

Here’s mine. Christopher picks up where he left off, trying to warn Peter not to go off with Duessa, but Peter isn’t listening to him.

‘Be My Valentine…Snack’ is the third prelude I’m posting and sharing at this Cauldron (blog) to ‘Stealing Myself From Shadows’.

‘Stealing Myself From Shadows’ is the first book in a series of novels, as well as part of a collection of ambient fantasy stories inspired by Tarot card imagery. This series/collection is ‘Tales of the Navel/The Shadow Forest’.

Enjoy!

 

“Peter, wait!” I cried.

He ignored me, waiting for Duessa to exit, before slamming the door shut behind him.

I had to go after him. I took a step towards the door, but Gabrielle held me back.

“Christopher, it’s his choice,” she said. Her eyes were sad, but her mouth had a firm, resolute set. “If he wants to go with Duessa, he can.”

 

To be continued on Monday!
