Hi, all! Here's another short story! I finished this at 7 in the morning after staying up all night so wow, do I need sleep. I used a prompt this time, though for the life of me I can't remember where I got it from. It's a tad long (as my short stories tend to … Continue reading Short Story: The Protected Ones

“Here, my love,” Alexei replied, stopping in front of a large, plain polished limestone building. It had many square windows and rose three stories high. Thin lines of shapes like triangles or circles or just thicker solid lines of green, blue, and red were painted over the white blocks at the base and on the roof.
“What is this?” Valon questioned confused. The courtyard in front of the building was empty, giving Valon no hints. . . .
