It’s time for my latest offering to Lillie McFerrin’s Five Sentence Fiction, a weekly prompt where there is no word limit, just a limit on the number of sentences. Plus, although she provides a word prompt, it is just for direction only – you don’t have to include the word itself in your contribution.
This week, the prompt is – FLOWERS.
Do let me know what you think of my offering below – and whilst you’re at it, why not take a look at everyone else’s offerings (I’m sure they’ll be fabulous), and even give it a go yourself…

– Possessed –
I stride down the corridors looking neither left nor right; in a lucid moment she has asked for me and I glory in this, holding the knowledge close like a treasured possession.
I suppress a secret smile as I gaze at her, my fingers pressed against the window to her room; my plan has worked, although to render her this helpless I must have overestimated her weight.
The thought pleases me – I like them… delicate.
She is sleeping; her dark lashes heighten the pallor of her cheeks and this thrills me beyond all imagination – I am undone.
Entering her room, I place the two blood red blooms, intertwined like lovers, on the empty chair; she will see them on waking, and understand.
ooohhhhh Freya, a bit spooky. Enjoyed it though.
I do like to indulge in the dark side. As you may have noticed 🙂 Thank you!
you did well Freya……
dramatic! have a nice Sunday
much love…
Thank you, Gillena.
This is excellent! It’s thoroughly creepy, in a good way.
Thank you, Lisa. Creepy was my intention 🙂
The soft, almost unperceived sting that ties a soul to eternity intertwined with a dark blood bloom!
Arcane and concealed doom!
I loved this tale!
Thank you Freya!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Eerie. Left me hanging…I want more.
Eerie – that’s what I was hoping for! I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Hmm, this does not sound good. Great read.
Not good at all! Thank you 🙂
