Blogs of Note: Stuff You Should Read...Or Else...



Hello faithful readers and welcome to Blogs of Note.  (Picture me wearing a red robe with black lapels and smoking a cigar in front of a fireplace. Are you with me? Good.)


I thought it would be nice to showcase a few of my fellow bloggers and their work, along with a few of my own picks for your viewing pleasure. I have included all the links to these fine sites and a few of these blogging beauties have included a bit about themselves as well. Make sure you all have a look see and leave them all a comment!  If you like what you see, be sure to follow them by email for instant updates or add them to your list of blogs to follow!  Alright, now on with the blogs...


Brilliant Disguise
http://talismania-brilliantdisguise.blogspot.com/


A few words about me... Though I'm terribly shy, life keeps finding ways to force me to meet people. I spend most of my time creating and exploring fantasy worlds because writing is the perfect profession for a control freak, particularly one who likes to control hot, sexy men. I believe setting serves as a main character in any story and that's part of the reason I travel a lot, to give my muse more to work with. I based one of my characters on my husband and it's driving him crazy because he can't figure out which one and I won't tell him.  :D


Something Night likes about this blog: Talismania thinks completely opposite of myself and I find it refreshing to take a minute and read something from her perspective.  Whether it's about books and writing or something small from her daily life, it's always unique and memorable. Also I love the series Talismania is writing for her Wednesday Briefs prompt group.  Fantasy and (laughs) that damned unicorn horn.  Too funny.  Check it out and become addicted!




Decadent Delights-Where Romance Begins
http://machurch00.blogspot.com/   

 
Hey! My published name is MA Church, but I also write as nomoretears00. I write m/m romance stories that tend to have nonhuman characters. But, I've been known to do just regular guys, also. I believe in HEA and my stories have that; but there may be a few bumps in the road before they get there, lol. Hey! Bumps can interesting. *wink*


I'm married to my high school sweetheart and live in the South. My writing buddy, Kitty-Kitty, keeps me on track. LOL, which means he sits next to me, sleeping, while I work.


Something Night likes about this blog: What I like about MA Church's blog is how simply she crafts a story and makes it into something realistic and understandable (even if it is non-human or other worldly :) ).  You always find yourself charmed with that warm and fuzzy feeling after reading her work.  Make sure to check her series for the Wednesday Briefs prompt group as well.  We don't even know what's going on yet and I'm already all up in this story.  *bites nails until next Wednesday*


The Online Stalker Diaries
http://theonlinestalkerdiaries.blogspot.com/
Even stalkers should be stalked.  Stalker Diaries is a look inside my life.  It comes with fun facts and interesting stories that are written from the heart.  I have recently been revamping my blog to be more user friendly and up to date.  And each month at the top of my blog I will also showcase 4 blogs that I stalk on a daily basis.  And to end your week on a nice note, every Saturday will be my Short Story Saturday, giving you chapters of the current story I am working on.  So far I have a wonderful group of people who have taken interest in what I have to say.  And I hope you'll want to as well.  So with that being said...ignore that noise behind you...it's just the wind.  You don't see the little woman outside your window.  ;-)


Something Night likes about this blog: First off, I love the layout!  I know Stalker mentioned she had made the site more user friendly and boy did she ever. Second, I enjoyed reading the Thursday Vent portion of her blog because the scenerios are real as well as the frustrations that a lot of us face on a daily basis.  And the wait for her Saturday features is killing me.  Ahh, the suspense!!!! Can't wait!


Nightthoughts and Daydreams (LillyBleu)
http://lillybleu.blogspot.com


I 'm an avid reader that wanted to try my hand at writing. Fragments of stories and poems are always floating in my head and I wanted a place for them to live. That said, I figured a blog was the best way to share my love with the world.  And that's my real goal--to share and to get better at my new found craft.  Because the only way to get better at writing is to keep on writing!  Right? Laugh. I am a lover of turtle cheesecake and Florence and the Machine.  I'm inspired by beautiful places like the Wisteria gazebo at Duke Gardens NC and even Mt. Rainer. If I I could marry anyone? I would marry a guy who could dance, had pretty eyes, and was handsome. He'd have to be nice but not a doormat, funny because I love to laugh. Tall but not too tall, intelligent, could cook, wasn't afraid to look silly, liked to go to the theatre *and* the ballet, wasn't gay, and still wanted to marry me.  Unfortunately I have not yet found this man. But I can write about him....


Something Night likes about this blog: Like myself, Lilly writes a series on her blog and hers is entitled Charcoal. I am totally into the character Soul.  He is so multi faceted and intense that you're always wondering what the hell he's going to do next.  Now add Scott into the mix and talk about some tension. Uhhh, I'm dying for them to just duke it out and admit their feelings--no matter how backwards they might be.  I also just read her newest piece and got all hot in my seat. *wipes brow* Smoother than Silk? Uh yeah, I think the title is pretty self explanatory.  Well not really. *laughs* Just take a peek and you'll get a few surprises.

QUICKIES: Batter Up

Here's a true QUICKIE with only five pages of pure yummy. Just a little fantasy that almost everyone has had at one time or another.  I will post more dark and twisty QUICKIES later this week after Dan and Rowe.  Look forward to more FANGSPACE tomorrow but until then, I hope you enjoy today's story.


XOXO NIGHTTEMPEST



BATTER UP
Matt put his gym shirt in his locker and looked from side to side making sure everyone was gone to lunch.  He hated it when they caught him with his pants down and proceeded to torture his skinny frame until he gave up and just cried so they would get the hell away from him—not that it hurt, it was just humiliating.  It had been a few weeks since Mason and his crew had given him one of their signature torture sessions and Matt was beginning to feel another one coming on any day now.  So he breathed a sigh of relief when he found himself truly alone. 

He laughed to himself quietly and shrugged off his paranoia.  It was the last day of his senior year at this pathetic excuse for an educational institution and really? What would a couple of jocks rather do on their last day?  Go hit up their bimbos and get a little at lunch or torture the gay kid that wasn’t a blip on their radar other than when he walked by.  Dumb asses, Matt smiled and pulled his green gym shorts down his hips and over his ass—letting them slide to the floor before he stepped out of them.

“And what do we have here?”  Mason Hilliard drawled from out of nowhere.  Matt stiffened and his hands immediately covered his groin.  Fate had terrible timing, it really did, the scrawny senior concluded.  Taking a step towards Coach Grady’s office, Matt realized that his teacher had already left for lunch and inadvertently had left him helpless.  “Going somewhere Jones?”

With a flip of his light brown hair, Matt looked over his shoulder at Mason. Bare shoulders the size of baseballs rotated slightly as the captain of the baseball team lifted his sleeveless shirt off his chest and over his head.  Shaking out his dark shaggy hair, Mason eyed his naked prey from head to toe—admiring the soft line of Matt’s body.   He’d been wanting Jones alone all year—finally deciding this was the year-- but this had been the first time that his crew had left him alone.  Those dicks had already ditched for the day and were hitting up the beach with some chicks from Hillsborough High.  Fuck the beach, he wanted the ass in front of him and he knew Matt would give in…eventually.

Matt cupped his goodies and sighed with a small shiver.  “Just do it and get it over with Mason.”

“Nah, I think I’ll make this nice and slow,” the jock replied right behind Matt.  The smaller boy gasped and turned around, accidentally letting his hands go to shield his face.  “Ah yeah, there we go.” The brunette pushed a hand against Matt’s chest and slammed him back into the lockers, his other hand going to the skinny boy’s exposed cock.

“Oh!” Matt cried softly.  “Come on Mason!  Just please hit me or something, please don’t do that,” he begged.  The dumb jock had never touched him there, none of them had and he thanked God that they weren’t into that kind of torture.  But this didn’t feel like torture yet.  Was Mason stroking him?  Ah yeah, he was.  A hand pushed his hair out of his blue eyes and Matt looked into Mason’s dark gaze.  “Why are you doing this?  Please just stop.”

“Turn around Jones.” Matt shook his head quickly and Mason squeezed his cock.  “Turn. Around. Now.”

Slowly and with Mason’s warm hands spinning over his body, Matt turned to face the lockers, his own hands finding the cold metal grating.  Looking down, he saw that large hand snake around his now traitorously hard cock again.  Matt panted and moaned as he heard something light fall to the floor and then Mason’s naked front press to his back.  He couldn’t help it, he’d never been so turned on but he couldn’t figure out why.  He’d hated Mason for the past four years and vice versa…or so he thought.  And yet, as the jock’s hot musky scented body pressed into his smaller one, he shivered with the need for more.  He felt the head of Mason’s cock press into the small of his back and Matt unconsciously leaned forward.

“That’s right Jones.  Push that ass out for me.” Matt was so hot he thought he would catch fire and found himself thrusting along with Mason’s tight fist on his dick.  So good, this was just the ultimate fantasy.  That’s where this was coming from.  Scrawny nobody gets fucked by the hottest jock in school.  Who the hell could say no?

Matt surely didn’t and pushed his ass into Mason when the jock bent down and licked up the smaller boy’s spine, ending with his teeth nibbling at the back of Matt’s neck.  “Oh fuck,” Matt cried and Mason bit down harder before licking the pain away. 

“Keep it down Jones.  We get caught and I’ll just find you later.  I’ll fuck that mouth til you can’t talk for a week. Now shut up and spread your legs.” Matt complied and nodded against the grating.

Crouching behind his new fuck toy, Mason spread Matt’s sweaty ass and licked his lips. He inhaled—memorizing the smell of the pretty boy above him—before he brought his tongue to the twitching pink hole between Jones’s tan little cheeks.  Matt’s eyes went wide and he stuffed his knuckles in his mouth to keep from screaming.  Sure he’d fucked around with some of the other boys at school but he’d never had anyone’s mouth on his ass before and holy mother was it exquisite.  Warm, wet, combined with the soft foreign texture of Mason’s tongue against his bundles of nerves was more than he could handle.  His hand went around his dick in Mason’s absence and he slowly stroked himself to the jock’s tongue.

Mason had never done this before. In fact, he’d never been with a guy before. But sure as shit he wasn’t going to tell Jones that.  He wasn’t sure why he’d always fantasized about the scrawny almost blonde for four years now but he couldn’t leave high school without knowing what it was like. His hand had done enough work throughout the years and it was time that Matt Jones gave it up for real.  Mason couldn’t go one more day looking at those pretty blue eyes with their long feminine lashes or that tight ass as it swished by in the hall.  Now he felt like he’d somehow claimed Jones as his and his cock was hard as stone between his legs just thinking about it.

He saw Matt stroking himself and Mason took the hint, grabbing his own dick—touching himself.  Oh if someone walked in here he was so fucked, Mason thought for a second and backed his face away.  Whimpering above, Matt wiggled his ass and leaned his forehead against his locker tag.  Mason didn’t argue with his higher thinking for long and quickly glanced around before wetting his finger in his mouth and shoving his digit into Matt palm up. 

“Oh God! Mason that fucking hurts you asshole!” Matt scowled and threaded his fingers into the locking grating for support.  His ass was on fire.  Didn’t this brute know to go slow? Tears pricked his eyes but he bent over further to relax a little.  “Slower, Mason. Please…”

“Sorry,” the jock muttered and turned his shocked face to the side.  Boy was he nervous now.  Matt couldn’t know he had no idea what he was doing.  So slow it was and was it two fingers or three?  Shit he should have read some more online.  Gah! What was he even talking about?  He was Mason Hilliard and he didn’t have to make this feel good, this little shit had teased him all four years of high school and he deserved to get fucked hard. But then Mase caught the tears Matt tried to hide and something human flickered inside of him.  Yeah, that was rape Mason, that’s a no go you dick. 

“Better?” He grunted.  Matt was getting used to it now and nodded, wiping his pansy tears on his forearm and pushing back against the finger now.  “More?”  Matt nodded again and swallowed.  It was starting to feel good.  He could take another.  God, he couldn’t believe he was doing this. And with Mason Hilliard!

That’s how he’d do this, Mason grinned.  Just ask you dummy, Matt would never know.  After about ten minutes and three fingers later, Mason was just staring at his fingers pushing in and pulling out of Matt like an idiot.  His own dick was basically crying with pre-cum and Matt had both hands against the lockers with his eyes closed—fucking Mason’s hand like he really liked it.  Of course he liked it, Mason rolled his eyes, he’s gay.  But aren’t you kind of gay with your fingers up his ass Mason?  Ah shit.

“Fuck this shit,” Mason stood and pulled his fingers out slowly.  “Get over here and straddle the bench. Put your hands on it and I want your ass in the air.”

In a daze, Matt pushed off the lockers and wiped the hair out of his eyes.  His stare locked onto Mason’s naked body for the first time and the pulsing cock that waited for him. Mason narrowed his eyes in warning and pointed to the long metal bench between the lockers.  Matt nodded shyly and took a few steps—lifting his leg and planting his sneakered foot on the other side of the bench.  Slowly he bent at the waist and looked over his shoulder.  Mason’s jaw almost dropped at the picture of fuck me before him.  Those slender yet strong legs stretched to their full extent and Matt’s sneakered feet were planted wide.  His sweet ass in the air with a heavy layer of sweat that rolled down the slope of his back to his neck and those blue eyes darkened with lust behind Matt’s light hair; his hard cock hanging in between his legs, completely on display.

Mason bent and dug into his shorts pocket and grabbed his cell phone.  “Hey what are you doing?” Matt freaked and started to stand but Mason gave him one look and the skinnier boy gulped and put his hands back on the bench. 

“Look at me Jones,” Mason whispered and Matt looked over his shoulder, hearing an immediate click from the jock’s phone.  “Perfect.”  Putting the phone away, Mason straddled the bench behind his boy and rubbed his leaking cock up and down the guy’s slick crack.  “You ready for this Jones?”

“Yeah,” Matt moaned.  And with that Mason plunged into his boy while covering Matt’s scream with his hand.  There was no sweet and gentle as Mason’s cock was surrounded by the warmest, tightest thing he’d ever known.  No, he pushed his fingers into Matt’s mouth and fucked his boy like he’d been dreaming of for four years straight. Their skin slapped together and Matt felt like his world was spinning.  Yeah it had hurt at first because come on!  The guy was hung and hard as rock.  But who was he kidding, he’d wanted it hard from the big ass jock and now everything had become clear. 

The more he thought about it, the more he realized he’d never walked away from Mason’s ‘sessions’ of slaps and taunting with a bruise or a bump and actually…Mason had never touched him.  It was always the others and it was always over with before he knew it.  That didn’t make it any better but for some reason the fact that Mason had never touched him fueled his libido.  Matt began to meet Mason thrust for thrust and his fingers curled around the edges of the bench. 

The hulking athlete grabbed onto Matt’s hips and leaned over his back to sheath himself further inside.  It was so hot in there, so just…everything and Mason knew no girl would ever feel like this.  No chick was ever gonna do it for him like Matt Jones did it for him.  Four fucking years and this was it. Everything he had wanted and more.   So hard and deep, the two of them all alone—Mason couldn’t get enough.  He thrust again and heard the Locker room door open on the far end.  A few voices laughed and carried on a conversation two rows over and Mason clamped his hand tightly over Matt’s mouth and slowed down his pace.  He took Matt deeper with slow hard strokes now.  The guy practically vibrated with pleasure underneath him.  Ah fuck he was gorgeous with all that hair sweaty and hung over his eyes.

Matt squeezed the bench with both hands and bounced silently against the jock in his ass. Oh God, Oh God, he cried in his head.  So full and hard and they were about to get caught.  Ah fuck, he was gonna cum.  Yeah, he couldn’t hold it in anymore. With one hand still on the bench, he covered the fingers in his mouth with his own hand and came so hard he thought he was going to go blind.  Mason bit down on his shoulder to hide his own moan but continued to go at it inside Matt.  He couldn’t stop.

“Yeah man, I can’t believe that shit either.  Hilliard turning down guaranteed pussy like that? Nah bro, he must have someone of the side.  Someone hot, you feel me?” Eddie Moyer’s voice traveled to the panting couple still going at it two rows away.

“Yeah,” another voice agreed and there was a high five.  “Real fucking hot if he’s passin up on some Hillborough ass.  Speaking of, let’s get the hell out of here and get down to the beach.  I don’t need to learn anything else.” The both laughed and a few lockers slammed shut.

“How the hell you got into state is beyond me man,” Eddie shot back and their voices grew fainter as they left the locker room.

A deep kiss was pressed to Matt’s shoulder and he shuddered.  “I’d pass up Hilborough every fucking day for the rest of my life for a piece of this; because no chick will ever be hotter than you.” The whisper ran all the way down Matt’s spine as Mason came inside of him with a loud moan.  Matt went to grab Mason’s hand but instead he grabbed something soft like fabric and when he looked up the locker room grew dark and the bench and all the lockers disappeared.

“Mason?” Matt gasped and then woke up.  His body was covered in sweat as he sat straight up in his bed with two fistfuls of sheets and a very erect cock between his legs.  Disoriented, Matt looked around the room and took in his Michigan State poster on the wall, the soft glow of his screensaver on his computer, and the bluish moonlight flowing in from the half open shades.  He was home, in his own room and Mason…wasn’t here.

“Damn,” he murmured and flopped back onto the pillow with a groan.  Stretching his neck, he eyed the staff below that would not be ignored and rolled his eyes.  “Fine,” he huffed in the dark and grabbed his erection, rubbing the sensitive head for a minute before traveling down with a slow and easy pace.  He was just getting really into it when his phone vibrated on the night stand.  Matt turned with a frown and glanced at the clock.  Who the hell was calling him at three in the morning?  Upon grabbing his phone though, a smile spread over his lips and he slid the screen to look at the message.  Tomorrow can’t come fast enough.  Batter up hot stuff.  XO JPG On his knees and wearing the bottoms to his baseball uniform was Mason—the pants pulled below his balls to expose his stiff rod and a red cap pulled over his dark hair.

Matt bit his lip and blushed looking at one of Mason’s hands on his chest while the other held the phone out to take the picture.  Yeah fuck baseball camp, Mason was never leaving him again.  With a smile, Matt got to his knees and shucked off the sheets, exposing his body for his phone.  With a look that screamed sex, the skinny boy sent a picture to his boyfriend.

Mason’s phone went off under his pillow and he rolled over to check it quickly.  He’d been waiting for a couple of minutes for a reply but wasn’t sure if he’d get one at this time of night.  Touching his message box, he had to bite his fist not to groan—so he didn’t wake up his bunk mate-- at the picture on the screen.  Matt’s hair had fallen over his eyes in sexy bed headed little pieces with his head tilted back, his back was arched and ass pushed out with a very slick cock between his legs.  Ah fuck he wanted to go home now.  Suddenly he hated baseball.  And when he read the message he knew he was out of here first thing in the morning.  Can’t wait. Guaranteed Homerun. Xoxo Jones

PREVIEW ALERT!! DAN AND ROWE CH. 4 TEASER AND A FEW BITES FROM NIGHT

Few things that we need to go over before we get to the goods:

1. I'm going to be working more here in the real world, so I may not have the same swifty posting schedule as I usually do.  But I will work as hard as I can between work and having a life as humanly possible to get you a few more pages of fairy or vamp page crack every week. 

2. You all need to get the I Heart Radio App for your phones/tablets.  I think it's psychic to my musical needs as a writer.  Especially this week when I was stumped. Writer's: It's a must have.

3.  As a manga and a yaoi fangirl, I feel it is my civic duty to pass on the hotness and totally amazing free graphic novels from MANGAGO There is some extremely awesome work on here and a lot of it is done by people trying to get there stuff out there, so support everything from sweet male male romance to holy crap that some's hardcore craziness.  Lol.  Yummy.

4. For some reason this week A Warlock's Tale (A Quickie from earlier this week) did not post to the blog feed for my follower's and I recieved a few message's about it.  So thanks to those users who alerted me and if you click on the title above it will take you right there.  Thanks and sorry about that. :D

5. I have been a terrible fan lover lately and haven't been commenting back to guys.  I wanted to say that it isn't because I don't care!  It's that I'm so busy and there are a lot of them coming in.  Which is awesome.  So I'm going to try and do one long comment at the end of the day after posting and address you all at once.  If you have something specific to ask me, you're answer will be included with your comment name.  :)  Hope that's cool with everyone. 

6. Last thing up for discussion.  This is just a taste compared to my usual preview (Gripe gripe hiss...yes yes I know) but that's because this chapter is once again a complete action package and I can't give everyone's mini adventure away all at once.  So again I'll apologize to the little pouty faces you're all making. *evil grin* The full chapter should post sometime around next Sunday or Monday.  Until then, I'll be posting a few teaser lines to my twitter @Night_Tempest and a QUICKIE or two on the blog.  Also I'm trying to get these damn QUICKIES posted to Lit but their bots are being little demons so I'll keep you posted on that. 

Thanks guys and I hope you don't all attempt to stab me with eye daggers through the computer after this little morsel.  Ciao!  XOXOXO NIGHT TEMPEST




Dan and Rowe Ch. 4 PREVIEW

Blood arced in a perfect crescent as the assassin’s head was sliced right off his shoulders.  Ghost turned his evil grin to the trio approaching his corner of the roof---the wailing storm and the ferocious waters of the docks as his backdrop for mayhem.  Bringing his staff full circle, the Guardian pointed a gleaming blade at his new opponents in invitation. This batch seemed a little more confident, the leader of their little group taller, broader---a nasty past in his light eyes. He wasn’t like the others.  This man was a trained killer.

Knowing that he wouldn’t be able to paint their bodies red up close with his staff, Ghost clicked the button on the middle of the stick, the weapon dividing into two and giving him a little more flexibility with both arms.  Smoke billowed over the rooftops and around their feet, occasionally hiding their forms as large clouds rode through the air; the rain not being able to diffuse the fire quick enough to see everything clearly.  Focusing his hazel eyes, the Latin vampire shook his hair out and took a few steps forward towards the group but they chose the next burst of smoke floating by to disperse in different directions. 

Ghost could feel them circling him, closing in--- sure they could take him out.  Forward, it was like a feeling more than a word and the Guardian’s arm shot out blindly with his blade.  The sharp tip stabbed into something solid.  Yanking the blade out, the smoke in front of him cleared a little and the smallest one of the group was hissing and holding his bleeding shoulder on the ground.

Turn around, East, his body moved in a circle sweeping his blades out like they were part of his body. “Ah!” The voice was lighter than the first vamps as his left handed knife took the second vamp right in the gut, followed by Ghost’s boot connecting with the fucker’s knee---the crunch of the cap completely audible.  Even as a vampire and a long term killer, Ghost flinched when the young vamp’s face leaned forward out of the smoke with his mouth open and blood coating his tongue and chin.  The body was somewhere on the other side of the fire’s aftermath, covered in a blackish grey.  A wet choke and a groan later and the face fell back into the smoke.  Ghost heard the body fall and tip off the roof, landing with a smack below.

Turn!  Turn now… He sucked in a deep breath as a blade went through the back of his thigh.  He wasn’t fast enough but now Ghost was pissed and that more than made up for it.  With a growl, he extended his arm up and brought his elbow straight into the warm chest at his back.  The other vamp was knocked back.  Sensing a few feet between them now, Ghost hissed and pulled the blade poking out of the front of his leathers from the back of his leg. 

“Gah!” His mouth let go of the pain verbally and Ghost felt the blood began to leak from his wound.  He wouldn’t have much time on his strength---it was a bad bleed and maybe he’d knicked the artery.  Hell, he was sure of it.  He’d need blood soon but first he’d have to take care of this douche.  Turning, he tried to take a step forward and his bad leg wobbled under his weight. 

“Something wrong Guardian?” The big vamp had the nerve to taunt him.  Ghost searched and inhaled, trying to seek out the figure that had struck him.  Finally those eyes came into view and narrowed at Ghost with a smile.  The assassin’s almost watercolor irises reminded him of the ones that had put a bullet in his mother’s head---the same shark grin and the same surety.  Rage filled the Guardian and his vision went red, his blood pumping too quickly for his wound, and his hand dropped the blade in favor of the gun at his thigh but his arm was going numb.  What, he thought.  He should have healed a little by now. 

“Well I’ll be a son a bitch.  Shit does work,” the vamp commented and strode over to Ghost with a gun in his hand.  Ghost dropped to one knee as the feeling in his side left him and he couldn’t support the weight any longer.  What the fuck was this, he thought frantically and reached for his other gun with his good side just as the same numb feeling began to spread.

Crouching down, the blonde assassin snorted.  “Almost too easy.” He pulled another blade out of his jacket and turned it in study.  “Seems to be working though, you’re still bleeding and the look on your face says your fucked.”  It was the last thing Mr. Blue Eyes said before a bullet went straight into his left ear and his eyes went blank.  Ghost shuddered as the body hit the ground but not from the violence of it.  Instead he felt his own body becoming paralyzed, something on that blade in front of him was important.

Besides Knox, J.J. was the closest thing to a brother that Ghost had but with J.J. it felt like more than that.  The Guardian gave a tortured sigh as his friend lowered the smoking gun and ran to his side. 

“This isn’t possible. Ah man, how?” J.J. knelt in front of Ghost and looked at the blood coating his friend’s leg.  Ghost was starting to breathe irregularly---too relaxed and deep.  His eyes were growing heavy.

“Grab that…knife.  It’s on the knife.  Call Cade…” Ghost slurred.  “Weapons…poison…”  The Latin heard a familiar voice begging for his life from below and saw his friend’s chocolate eyes narrow with understanding before his world went black.
