Scary Story
The Last Tango
Dawn Knox
Absinthe
– a treacherous drink
He seized her hand and
led her to the dance floor. Tightly embracing, their bodies matched the
rhythmic beat, in a deadly dance that he must win.
Her
youth and vitality would be his once he'd overcome her, giving him strength to
search out a fresh life to claim. So far, he'd survived and thrived, devouring
the life from countless dancers. Fools who'd pitted their strength against his,
and lost.
But
this partner would not relinquish life so easily. He realised with alarm that
she was formidable indeed. Closing his eyes, he absorbed the music and danced
for his life.
