Dangerous
A nightmare clings in the furious silence. Shadows reach as her imagination bends. There is a racing stillness in the twilight hours. Wickedness creeps with a lonely caress. Anything is possible.

Writing Prompt – you wake up and are surrounded by aliens. Max 500 words.
I knew instantly that they were there, I didn’t need to open my eyes. “Go away…” I grumbled. There was a sharp intake of breath, followed by the flurry and fluster of narrow feet on the wood floor as they scuttled out of the room. I tried to go back to sleep, but my brain…
