“Reload—(ing),” Private Willis said before being silenced.

Despite numerous strikes it was still standing upright, although sluggish in movements. Murphy spotted those fangs and froze for a minute as the memory of what happened that fateful evening. Not now!

He bit the inside of his cheek to further refocus his thoughts and fired another round. 

Three.

Nevertheless Murphy pulled back on the forend to pump and fired off another round. All round him the men kept firing, and several rounds struck the creature through the chest, arm and legs. 

Two…

Their only chance was to keep firing until they ran out of ammunition or it dropped dead. Therein lay the problem, sustained and continuous fire was a challenge for a section armed only with weapons with a limited ammunition capacity.

A lady is never alone... One scene, and two #DarkFantasy stories make for a great pairing!

What's this? Werewolves are found throughout my #Novels. Twelve feet tall, killing machines that can decimate armies. They litter the grounds surrounding The Grand, making the hotel's placement strategic. A safe haven for crossing the Rockies!

Vampires were tough creatures. They were effectively dead meaning that a strike to the heart and lungs did not slow them down. They were also fast, could heal in seconds, and were unnaturally strong.

The creature turned around so fast that Murphy wondered if there were two of them. He knew that spelled trouble but Sergeant Sullivan, on the other side, fired off two rounds and that rallied the remaining men.

A good question but there was no time. He lined up the forward bead and pulled the trigger. The weapons roared to life sending a volley of buckshot at its target. Given his range it only grazed the vampire’s leg.

“Vampire,” Murphy said over his shoulder and heard the word being passed down.

He distanced himself from the wall and circled around the corner with his shotgun leading the way. It did not take long for him to find the threat, a vampire hunched over and feasting on a rifleman. Where’s the third?

The Turquoise Spider is the first #Novella of the Elizabeth Hunter-Payne #Series by @ash_mikala/Mikala Ash. It's a #Steamy read that's easily consumed in a single sitting. Recommended for fans of #Steampunk and #Mystery, as long as you don't mind the heat!
