The gruff old business man was equal parts doting and despotic, assuring that the young girl had to earn her place through only a thimble full of nepotistic influence. Frequently, probably

A dark cloaked figure came to the cottage, her wide brimmed hat and violet scarf keeping a majority of the ice from her delicate face. She was shouldering a bulky basket, the well contained prize from a successful day gathering.

Stolen GainsIt was late hours within the walls of a 24/7 gym. Bright halogen lights reflected off the floor to ceiling mirrors, perfectly illuminating the workout floor.
