    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    Days would pass before Safa would get an inkling that it was time for her to meet her new employer. She didn’t see the old woman again, even while searching for her in places that many of the elderly frequented. She had given more of her free time to the children, finished an odd job that took a...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    Safa nodded, deciding that now she'd occupy herself with the rest of the honey wine and finger foods still left on their table. Dark eyes watched as the woman disappeared behind a group of men, glimpsing the cloth she wore between two sets of shoulders before she left through the door. Safa...

    "Your employer sounds like a dangerous man, Zsa-Zsa." Safa said with light humor that didn't match the darkening of her eyes. "It sounds like you enjoy working for him." She added, a calculated prick towards the old woman she had just endearingly called grandmother in the most respectful way one...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    It sounded almost too good to be true. This employer was loaded. They also had power. It was a dangerous combination but not unusual in Southern Ilica, which always seemed to draw about seedy and unsavory people. However, what sort of employer could guarantee her protection? They must have some...

    "Art, you say," Safa repeated, narrowing her dark eyes at the old woman. "I've heard those six rings, gifted to the Rinat family centuries ago, are more than a pretty decoration." She took another long, hearty pause, waiting to see if the woman would fluster. Nothing but steel was staring back...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    She bit the inside of her cheek to keep her facial expressions in check, regardless, there was a brief raise of her brows as she realized what exactly this strange, old woman was asking. There was a long stretch of silence, it would have made most uncomfortable, but Safa felt no shame in mulling...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    She snorted a sound that was every bit as unladylike as the eye-roll that accompanied it. She raised a hand, waving it in a way that suggested smoke was in the air as if she could toss the old woman's words away. She nearly knocked over the serving boy's tray of their honey wine and bowl of...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    "You'll pay?" Safa looked the woman up and down again, this time far more invasive than before. She didn't note any jewelry, not even copper, though everyone knew that wealthy people liked to flaunt their silver rings or gold bracelets. However, that was only one indicator of wealth, and few in...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    Safa had only taken a step, eyeing her first two victims who were busy playing a game involving two die and guessing a number. They had a half-eaten plate of dried meat and were now picking at the small bowl of brown and green olives between the moments they rolled the dice. Their mugs must have...

    Dare Locked Out of Heaven

    "Sure, I'd trade ya a lockpick for salt. Everything in that pouch and we have a deal." Safa's dark brows laid low over her eyes as she scowled at the merchant's skinny son. He had yet to grow more than a few sparse hairs on his upper lip and chin, though if he had his father's luck, he'd have...

    And don’t be afraid when, eyes closed, you look inside you and find night is both the silence tolling after stars and the final word that founds all beginning, find night, abyss and shuttle, a finished cloth frayed by the years, then gathered in the songs and games mothers teach their children...
