The Woman I Saw in My Dreams

The Last Voyage of Riviera Skylark

100 Faces in 100 Stories — No82 — I told her I wouldn’t be her fall guy anymore. But Riviera looked at me with those star-bright eyes of hers and leaned in close enough that I could smell her rosewater perfume. “It’s just one last heist, Victor,” she said. “Don’t you want to see what we can do? This is the opportunity of a lifetime.” I muttered something about curses and jail time, but Riviera just smirked.

Bluebeard’s Bride

100 Faces in 100 Stories — No79 — I could have told you the long history of the Bluebeards, but you’ve probably heard enough from the tales run rampant through the hills. Mad blood — that’s what they always say in their whispers in the shops and taverns. And they aren’t quite wrong about it all. The girl remains the saddest part of the Bluebeard family’s legacy. She didn’t know any better. She met a handsome young man — Ronan Bluebeard — and thought Lady Fortune had smiled upon her.

Can We Ever Go Back?

I still have the polaroid of us from that summer. — The July heat always reminded me of us. I could close my eyes and go back to the flare of that welcome warmth as it poured over us in waves. That day in your dad’s pickup truck, it would have been so easy just to reach out for you and…
