Tempe O'Kun

Kylie's

light:

webbed

light:

fingers

light:

rolled

light:

over

light:

the

light:

steering

light:

wheel. "I

light:

just

light:

don't

light:

like

light:

the

light:

idea

light:

of

light:

haunted

light:

houses

light:

anymore."

light:

She

light:

tapped

light:

the

light:

breaks

light:

as

light:

a

light:

family

light:

of

light:

foxes

light:

bobbed

light:

across

light:

the

light:

street,

light:

dressed

light:

as

light:

a

light:

string

light:

of

light:

papier-mâché

light:

traffic

light:

cones.

As

light:

the

light:

orange

light:

sunset

light:

cast

light:

the

light:

autumn

light:

night in

light:

ember

light:

hues,

light:

aliens,

light:

undead,

light:

and

light:

monsters

light:

of

light:

all

light:

ages

light:

filled

light:

the

light:

streets

light:

of

light:

Windfall.

light:

Idling

light:

through

light:

the

light:

middle

light:

of

light:

it,

light:

an

light:

otter

light:

sat

light:

in

light:

her

light:

mom's

light:

hatchback.

Her

light:

big

light:

canine

light:

boyfriend

light:

sat

light:

folded

light:

up

light:

in

light:

the

light:

passenger

light:

seat,

light:

paws

light:

on

light:

his

light:

lap,

light:

dressed

light:

as

light:

a

light:

green

light:

dinosaur.

light:

Sunset

light:

light

light:

cast

light:

an

light:

orange

light:

halo

light:

through

light:

his

light:

fluff.

light:

The

light:

husky

light:

turned

light:

from

light:

looking

light:

at

light:

a

light:

platypus

light:

dressed

light:

as

light:

an

light:

aircraft

light:

carrier

light:

and

light:

cocked

light:

an

light:

eyebrow

light:

at

light:

her.

light:

His

light:

sky blue

light:

eyes

light:

studied

light:

her

light:

over

light:

that

light:

blocky

light:

white

light:

muzzle. "Okay."

She

light:

pulled

light:

back

light:

her

light:

little

light:

red

light:

riding

light:

hood

light:

for a

light:

better

light:

view

light:

of

light:

the

light:

road.

light:

The

light:

trouble

light:

with

light:

dating

light:

the

light:

dog

light:

who'd

light:

been

light:

your

light:

best

light:

friend

light:

for

light:

years

light:

is

light:

you

light:

can't

light:

pretend

light:

not

light:

to

light:

know

light:

his

light:

body

light:

language. "I

light:

mean,

light:

we

light:

found

light:

an

light:

alien

light:

running

light:

around

light:

my

light:

actual

light:

house

light:

who

light:

was

light:

totally

light:

willing

light:

to

light:

kill

light:

us."

light:

Two

light:

enterprising

light:

young

light:

giraffes

light:

had

light:

dressed

light:

as

light:

a

light:

pair

light:

of

light:

telephone

light:

poles.

light:

She

light:

slowed

light:

again

light:

to

light:

let

light:

them

light:

cross

light:

the

light:

road. "I

light:

just

light:

don't

light:

like

light:

being

light:

scared.

light:

What

light:

if

light:

I

light:

freak

light:

out

light:

next

light:

time

light:

something

light:

crazy

light:

happens?"

"You

light:

won't."

light:

He

light:

patted

light:

her

light:

thigh,

light:

looking

light:

infuriatingly

light:

earnest.

Her

light:

sigh

light:

left

light:

her

light:

chest

light:

feeling

light:

empty,

light:

though

light:

under

light:

less

light:

pressure. "Easy

light:

for

light:

you

light:

to

light:

say."

The

light:

husky

light:

nodded,

light:

thought,

light:

then

light:

spread

light:

a

light:

thick

light:

paw

light:

in

light:

the

light:

air

light:

between

light:

them. "It

light:

is.

light:

But

light:

I

light:

know

light:

you're a

light:

tough

light:

little

light:

thing."

light:

He

light:

adjusted

light:

the

light:

fabric

light:

hood

light:

of

light:

his

light:

dino

light:

costume,

light:

its

light:

serious

light:

eyebrows

light:

judging

light:

the

light:

automotive

light:

upholstery. "Anyway,

light:

Shane

light:

and

light:

Sarah

light:

are

light:

our

light:

friends.

light:

It's

light:

good

light:

to

light:

do

light:

things

light:

with

light:

friends."

A

light:

string

light:

of

light:

muttered

light:

squawks

light:

trailed

light:

from

light:

her

light:

round

light:

muzzle.

light:

He

light:

had

light:

a

light:

point,

light:

which

light:

made

light:

her

light:

feel

light:

unreasonable

light:

and

light:

grouchy.

He

light:

set

light:

a

light:

heavy

light:

paw

light:

on

light:

the

light:

shoulder

light:

of

light:

her

light:

bright

light:

red

light:

bodice. "Look,

light:

if

light:

you

light:

need

light:

to

light:

bail,

light:

tell

light:

me

light:

and

light:

I'll

light:

kick

light:

down

light:

the

light:

nearest

light:

wall

light:

or

light:

something."

She

light:

flashed

light:

him

light:

a

light:

little

light:

smile

light:

of

light:

trust. "You're a

light:

good

light:

dog,

light:

Maxie."

His

light:

tail

light:

thumped

light:

the

light:

seat,

light:

the

light:

sound

light:

dampened

light:

by the

light:

spiked,

light:

fabric

light:

tail-sleeve.

light:

Out

light:

the

light:

passenger

light:

window,

light:

in

light:

a

light:

rather

light:

meta

light:

move,

light:

a

light:

ferret

light:

had

light:

dressed

light:

up

light:

as

light:

a

light:

candy

light:

bar

light:

for

light:

trick-or-treating.

She

light:

steered

light:

her

light:

mother's

light:

hatchback

light:

into a

light:

residential

light:

neighborhood.

light:

Max

light:

didn't

light:

like

light:

Kylie's

light:

car,

light:

even

light:

though

light:

it

light:

was

light:

the

light:

best

light:

car

light:

ever.

light:

It

light:

could

light:

drive

light:

on

light:

water,

light:

after

light:

all.

light:

Sure,

light:

it

light:

was

light:

a

light:

little

light:

small,

light:

but

light:

he

light:

looked

light:

cute

light:

with

light:

his

light:

knees

light:

crammed

light:

up

light:

against

light:

his

light:

chest.

"I

light:

didn't

light:

think we

light:

were

light:

doing

light:

costumes

light:

this

light:

year."

light:

He

light:

wiggled

light:

his

light:

fingers

light:

at

light:

her,

light:

clad

light:

in

light:

overlarge

light:

dino-claw

light:

gloves. "Usually, you

light:

try

light:

to

light:

coordinate

light:

a

light:

matching

light:

one

light:

with

light:

me."

light:

He

light:

woofed a

light:

chuckle. "Those

light:

matching

light:

costumes

light:

were

light:

always

light:

a

light:

hit.

light:

Remember

light:

when

light:

we

light:

went

light:

as Saturn and Soyuz rockets?"

"Oh, I remember."

light:

She

light:

rolled

light:

her

light:

eyes,

light:

then

light:

returned

light:

them

light:

to

light:

the

light:

road. "Even

light:

with

light:

you

light:

and

light:

your

light:

appetite

light:

around,

light:

we

light:

were

light:

eating

light:

oatmeal

light:

for

light:

months

light:

to

light:

get

light:

that

light:

many

light:

cardboard

light:

cylinders."

light:

Her

light:

tongue

light:

poked

light:

out

light:

at the

light:

memory. "Anyway,

light:

I

light:

wanted

light:

this

light:

one

light:

to

light:

be

light:

a

light:

surprise."

Muzzle

light:

aimed

light:

at

light:

the

light:

windshield,

light:

his

light:

gaze

light:

flicked

light:

to

light:

her

light:

ruffled

light:

white

light:

bodice

light:

and

light:

crimson

light:

knee-length

light:

skirt

light:

with

light:

matching

light:

cape. "It

light:

certainly

light:

was..."

"Besides,

light:

you're

light:

already

light:

coordinated

light:

with

light:

it."

light:

Her

light:

paw

light:

reached

light:

over

light:

to

light:

caress

light:

his

light:

thigh. "You're

light:

my

light:

Big

light:

Bad

light:

Wolf."

"Okay,

light:

so

light:

you're

light:

sexy

light:

Red

light:

Riding

light:

Hood

light:

on

light:

purpose."

light:

He

light:

patted

light:

her

light:

paw

light:

warmly. "I

light:

wasn't going to

light:

say

light:

anything.

light:

I

light:

wasn't

light:

sure

light:

you

light:

knew."

She

light:

squawked

light:

in

light:

mild

light:

offense. "What's

light:

that

light:

supposed

light:

to

light:

mean?"

The

light:

husky

light:

shrugged. "The

light:

skirt's a

light:

little bit

light:

short

light:

for

light:

grandmother's

light:

house,

light:

but

light:

I

light:

didn't

light:

know

light:

if

light:

that

light:

was

light:

for

light:

my

light:

benefit or for

light:

easier

light:

swimming."

Straightening

light:

her

light:

skirt,

light:

she

light:

leaned

light:

in

light:

close

light:

and

light:

whispered. "You

light:

like

light:

my

light:

skirt,

light:

Maxie?"

His

light:

gaze

light:

traced

light:

over

light:

her

light:

supple

light:

form. "Uh

light:

huh."

"Wanna

light:

hear

light:

a

light:

secret?"

light:

She

light:

wiggled

light:

from

light:

hips

light:

to

light:

shoulders. "I'm

light:

not

light:

wearing

light:

any

light:

panties

light:

under

light:

here."

His

light:

ears

light:

popped

light:

up.

light:

Those

light:

bright

light:

blue

light:

eyes

light:

flicked

light:

to

light:

her

light:

hemline. "Seriously?"

"Nah."

light:

She

light:

punched

light:

his

light:

shoulder. "But

light:

now

light:

I've

light:

got

light:

you

light:

thinking

light:

about

light:

it."

light:

Pulling

light:

up

light:

outside

light:

the

light:

Warren

light:

residence,

light:

she

light:

beeped

light:

the

light:

horn

light:

once.

Sarah

light:

bounced

light:

out

light:

the

light:

front

light:

door

light:

and

light:

down

light:

the

light:

sidewalk.

light:

A

light:

clear

light:

plastic

light:

dome

light:

sat

light:

over

light:

her

light:

head

light:

like

light:

a

light:

soap

light:

bubble,

light:

curling

light:

her

light:

ears

light:

forward.

light:

Her

light:

moon

light:

boots

light:

glittered

light:

in

light:

the

light:

street light.

light:

A

light:

plush alien

light:

carrot peeked from

light:

the

light:

pocket

light:

of

light:

her

light:

puffy

light:

silver

light:

jumpsuit.

light:

Matching

light:

gloves

light:

and

light:

a

light:

jet pack

light:

with

light:

ribbon

light:

streamers

light:

completed

light:

the

light:

costume.

Her

light:

brother,

light:

a bored

light:

orange

light:

cat,

light:

padded

light:

after

light:

her

light:

in a t-shirt

light:

and

light:

jeans

light:

and

light:

got

light:

in

light:

the

light:

car.

light:

Not

light:

even

light:

adopted,

light:

though

light:

Kylie'd

light:

been

light:

fooled

light:

for

light:

months.

light:

Thanks

light:

to

light:

the

light:

magic

light:

of

light:

in

light:

vitro

light:

fertilization,

light:

they

light:

were,

light:

as

light:

Sarah

light:

put it, "uterus

light:

buddies."

As

light:

she

light:

dropped

light:

the

light:

car

light:

into

light:

gear,

light:

the

light:

otter

light:

peered

light:

at

light:

him

light:

around

light:

the

light:

driver's

light:

seat. "Shane,

light:

you

light:

seem

light:

to have

light:

forgotten

light:

your

light:

costume."

"Nah."

light:

He

light:

gestured

light:

to

light:

his

light:

white

light:

t-shirt,

light:

which

light:

had "Error 404:

light:

Costume

light:

not

light:

found."

light:

written

light:

on

light:

it

light:

in

light:

black

light:

marker.

Sarah's

light:

groan

light:

of

light:

disgust

light:

echoed

light:

in

light:

her

light:

homemade

light:

space

light:

helmet.

"We

light:

should

light:

get

light:

moving."

light:

The

light:

feline

light:

pointed

light:

from

light:

between

light:

the

light:

front

light:

seats. "The

light:

haunted

light:

house

light:

closes

light:

at

light:

midnight."

Jack-o-lanterns

light:

flickered

light:

on

light:

every

light:

doorstep.

light:

They

light:

passed

light:

a

light:

pair

light:

of

light:

armadillo

light:

twins,

light:

dressed

light:

as

light:

a

light:

matched

light:

set

light:

of

light:

pill

light:

bugs.

light:

Along

light:

the

light:

side

light:

of

light:

the

light:

street,

light:

a

light:

store

light:

called

light:

Wibbly

light:

Warbles

light:

advertised "the

light:

largest selection

light:

of

light:

theremins

light:

on

light:

the

light:

East

light:

Coast."

Kylie

light:

watched

light:

the

light:

proprietors

light:

demonstrate

light:

their

light:

wares

light:

to a

light:

couple

light:

of platypus clients. She tilted a webbed thumb in its direction. "Does that theremin shop only

light:

open

light:

for

light:

Halloween?"

Shane

light:

rolled

light:

his slitted

light:

eyes. "It

light:

should.

light:

I

light:

don't

light:

know

light:

how

light:

they

light:

stay

light:

in

light:

business

light:

the

light:

rest

light:

of

light:

the

light:

year."

His

light:

sister

to

light:

keep

light:

the

light:

seat belt

light:

from

light:

pulling

light:

off

light:

her

space

light:

helmet. "You

light:

know,

light:

just

light:

like

light:

the

light:

rest

light:

of

light:

Windfall."

The

light:

otter

light:

snorted.

The

light:

slim

light:

tabby

light:

poked

light:

a claw

light:

between

light:

the

light:

front

light:

seats. "Turn

light:

here."

She

light:

pulled

light:

into

light:

the

light:

parking

light:

lot.

light:

The

light:

Windfall

light:

Chamber

light:

of

Commerce

event

center

light:

displayed

light:

a

light:

canvas

light:

that

light:

read "of

light:

Horrors"

light:

over

light:

half its sign. Kylie navigated the hatchback into the parking lot. The entire building glowed with strings of flickering electric candles.

The otter's

light:

eyebrows

light:

lifted,

light:

whiskers

light:

spread. "I

light:

was

light:

expecting

light:

somebody's

light:

house."

Sarah

light:

leaned

light:

up

light:

from

light:

the

light:

back

light:

seat,

light:

bumping

light:

her

light:

helmet into

light:

the

light:

dome

light:

light.

light:

Her

light:

excited

light:

breath

light:

fogged

light:

the

light:

front

light:

of

light:

the

light:

sphere. "Windfall

light:

takes

light:

Halloween

light:

seriously."

They

light:

exited

light:

the

light:

car

light:

and

light:

crossed

light:

the

light:

parking

light:

lot.

light:

Kids

light:

of

light:

all

light:

ages

light:

ping-ponged

light:

between

light:

the

light:

parked

light:

cars,

light:

fueled

light:

by

light:

candy.

light:

The

light:

great

light:

glass

light:

doors

light:

stood

light:

half-lit,

light:

cloaked

light:

in

light:

cobweb

light:

fabric.

light:

In

light:

a

light:

line

light:

around

light:

the

light:

second

light:

story,

light:

demonic

light:

skulls

light:

blasted

light:

fire

light:

from

light:

their

light:

eyes

light:

with

light:

a

light:

distinct

light:

odor

light:

of

light:

propane.

light:

Streaks

light:

of

light:

fake

light:

blood

light:

traced

light:

down

light:

from

light:

the

light:

roof

light:

and

light:

onto

light:

the

light:

off-white

light:

walls.

Kylie

light:

gaped

light:

up

light:

at

light:

the

light:

transformed

light:

civil

light:

building,

light:

feeling

light:

small.

light:

She

light:

fought

light:

the

light:

urge

light:

to

light:

cling

light:

to

light:

Max's

light:

arm. "I, uh,

light:

thought

light:

these

light:

haunted

light:

houses

light:

were

light:

supposed

light:

to

light:

be

light:

all

light:

plastic

light:

skeletons

light:

and

light:

jack-o'-lanterns."

Shane

light:

thumped

light:

her

light:

shoulder. "Yeah,

light:

that's

light:

not

light:

how

light:

the

light:

folks

light:

in

light:

Windfall

light:

roll.

light:

My

light:

dad

light:

spent

light:

a

light:

couple

light:

years

light:

helping

light:

with

light:

this

light:

thing.

light:

He

light:

said

light:

they

light:

feel

light:

like

light:

failures

light:

without

light:

at

light:

least

light:

one

light:

ambulance

light:

visit

light:

per

light:

year."

"I

light:

guess

light:

it

light:

was

light:

two

light:

or

light:

three

light:

competing

light:

houses

light:

at

light:

some

light:

point,

light:

and

light:

they

light:

got

light:

really

light:

competitive."

light:

Sarah

light:

orbited

light:

around

light:

them

light:

in

light:

her

light:

homemade

light:

spacesuit. "Lucky

light:

for

light:

us,

light:

they

light:

decided

light:

to

light:

combine

light:

their

light:

efforts

light:

before

light:

anyone

light:

resorted

light:

to

light:

property

light:

damage."

They

light:

padded

light:

in

light:

through

light:

the

light:

front

light:

door.

light:

Kylie

light:

stifled a

light:

groan

light:

when

light:

she

light:

saw

light:

who

light:

was

light:

taking

light:

the

light:

tickets.

Cindy.

light:

The cocker spaniel

light:

who

light:

worked

light:

next

light:

door

light:

to

light:

her

light:

and had

light:

decided

light:

Max

light:

was

light:

too

light:

hot

light:

to date

light:

outside

light:

the

light:

species.

light:

She

light:

stood

light:

in

light:

the

light:

lobby,

light:

taking

light:

the

light:

occasional

light:

ticket

light:

and

light:

looking

light:

bored.

light:

The

light:

busty

light:

canine

light:

was

light:

dressed

light:

as

light:

a

light:

witch,

light:

to

light:

the

light:

extent

light:

as

light:

she

light:

was

light:

dressed

light:

at

light:

all.

light:

The

light:

broad-brimmed

light:

hat

light:

contained

light:

most

light:

of

light:

the

light:

costume's

light:

fabric.

light:

The

light:

cape

light:

had

light:

the

light:

acreage

light:

of

light:

an

light:

unfolded

light:

napkin.

light:

The

light:

skirt

light:

appeared

light:

to

light:

be

light:

underwear.

light:

The

light:

bat-shaped

light:

bra

light:

struggled

light:

to

light:

stay

light:

aloft

light:

under

light:

the

light:

weight

light:

of

light:

her

light:

bust.

light:

Luckily,

light:

her

light:

boots

light:

made

light:

up

light:

for

light:

the

light:

lack

light:

of

light:

modesty,

light:

easily

light:

reaching

light:

mid-thigh.

light:

Spider-themed

light:

lingerie-grade

light:

mesh

light:

covered

light:

her

light:

arms,

light:

in

light:

what

light:

could

light:

only

light:

be

light:

considered

light:

sleeves

light:

in

light:

a

light:

technical

light:

sense.

"You're here?"

light:

The

light:

spaniel

light:

crossed

light:

her

light:

arms

light:

over

light:

her

light:

cleavage. "Don't

light:

you

light:

have

light:

your

light:

own

light:

spooky

light:

house

light:

to

light:

haunt?"

The

light:

otter

light:

chattered

light:

with

light:

displeasure

light:

and

light:

shoved

light:

all

light:

four

light:

tickets

light:

into

light:

the

light:

spaniel's paws. "Don't

light:

you

light:

get

light:

cold,

light:

riding

light:

a

light:

broom

light:

in

light:

that?"

Her

light:

eyes

light:

distributed

light:

glances

light:

like

light:

nasty

light:

little

light:

trick-or-treats.

light:

A

light:

dagger-sharp

light:

glare

light:

at

light:

the

light:

otter.

light:

A

light:

nasty

light:

glance

light:

sent

light:

Sarah

light:

scampering

light:

ahead.

light:

A

light:

look

light:

of

light:

mild

light:

recognition

light:

for

light:

Shane.

light:

A

light:

jealous

light:

leer

light:

for

light:

Max,

light:

which

light:

turned

light:

to

light:

a

light:

head-tilt

light:

when

light:

she

light:

saw

light:

his

light:

rudimentary

light:

costume.

Max

light:

raised

light:

his

light:

dinosaur-claw

light:

gloves

light:

with

light:

a

light:

shrug.

light:

He

light:

offered

light:

a

helpful:

"Rawr?"

"Wow,

helpful:

Max,

helpful:

you

helpful:

look..."

helpful:

Tilting

helpful:

her

helpful:

head

helpful:

back

helpful:

and

helpful:

her

helpful:

muzzle away,

helpful:

Cindy

helpful:

stepped

helpful:

back,

helpful:

unsure

helpful:

what

helpful:

to

helpful:

make

helpful:

of

helpful:

the

helpful:

larger

helpful:

dog. "Is

helpful:

that

helpful:

supposed

helpful:

to

helpful:

be

helpful:

a

helpful:

dinosaur?"

He

helpful:

shrugged,

helpful:

sharing

helpful:

a

helpful:

smirk

helpful:

with

helpful:

Kylie. "It's

helpful:

the

helpful:

only

helpful:

thing

helpful:

I

helpful:

could

helpful:

find

helpful:

that

helpful:

fit."

The

helpful:

smaller

helpful:

canine

helpful:

crossed

helpful:

her

helpful:

arms

helpful:

with

helpful:

a

helpful:

predatory

helpful:

smirk.

helpful:

She

helpful:

looked

helpful:

him

helpful:

up

helpful:

and

helpful:

down.

helpful:

Mostly

helpful:

down. "I

helpful:

can

helpful:

think

helpful:

of

helpful:

something

helpful:

else

helpful:

you'd

helpful:

fit

helpful:

into."

His

helpful:

eyebrows

helpful:

closed

helpful:

ranks. "I

helpful:

already

helpful:

have

helpful:

a

helpful:

costume,

helpful:

though."

She

helpful:

stepped forward, one hip at a time. "Then maybe

helpful:

I

helpful:

could

helpful:

interest

helpful:

you

helpful:

in

helpful:

my

helpful:

goodies."

Max didn't

helpful:

react,

helpful:

except

helpful:

to

helpful:

look

helpful:

around,

helpful:

feigning

helpful:

confusion. "I

helpful:

don't

helpful:

see a

helpful:

candy

helpful:

bowl."

As

helpful:

usual,

helpful:

Cindy

helpful:

refused

helpful:

to

helpful:

get

helpful:

the

helpful:

message.

helpful:

She

helpful:

put

helpful:

a

helpful:

paw

helpful:

on

helpful:

her

helpful:

hip,

helpful:

her

helpful:

long

helpful:

silken

helpful:

tail

helpful:

stirring

helpful:

the

helpful:

short

helpful:

skirt. "Not

helpful:

yet,

helpful:

you

helpful:

don't."

"Aaaaaand

helpful:

we're

helpful:

leaving."

helpful:

Kylie

helpful:

turned

helpful:

to

helpful:

go.

The

helpful:

husky

helpful:

clamped

helpful:

a

helpful:

paw

helpful:

on

helpful:

her

helpful:

shoulder

helpful:

and

helpful:

towed her

helpful:

toward the

helpful:

lobby. "Bye,

helpful:

Cindy."

Snickering,

helpful:

the

helpful:

cat

helpful:

caught

helpful:

up

helpful:

to

helpful:

them.

helpful:

His

helpful:

sister's

helpful:

ears

helpful:

blushed

helpful:

against

helpful:

the

helpful:

inside

helpful:

of

helpful:

the

helpful:

space

helpful:

helmet.

The

helpful:

otter

helpful:

grumbled. "I

helpful:

knew

helpful:

I

helpful:

should

helpful:

have

helpful:

had

helpful:

an

helpful:

axe

helpful:

with

helpful:

this

helpful:

costume..."

"Just

helpful:

ignore

helpful:

her."

helpful:

Sarah

helpful:

moon-bounced

helpful:

up

helpful:

with

helpful:

a

helpful:

shrug. "She's

helpful:

at

helpful:

a

helpful:

weird

helpful:

place

helpful:

right

helpful:

now."

Kylie

helpful:

cast her

helpful:

an

helpful:

incredulous

helpful:

glance.

helpful:

Cindy

helpful:

had

helpful:

been

helpful:

a

helpful:

jerk

helpful:

long

helpful:

before

helpful:

Max

helpful:

visited

helpful:

for

helpful:

the

helpful:

summer

helpful:

and

helpful:

ended

helpful:

up

helpful:

staying.

helpful:

She

helpful:

suspected

helpful:

the

helpful:

rabbit

helpful:

just

helpful:

didn't

helpful:

want

helpful:

to

helpful:

believe

helpful:

she'd

helpful:

been

helpful:

friends

helpful:

with

helpful:

a

helpful:

total

helpful:

bitch,

helpful:

but

helpful:

said

helpful:

nothing.

They

helpful:

continued

helpful:

into

helpful:

the

helpful:

lobby,

helpful:

which

helpful:

had

helpful:

been

helpful:

infested

helpful:

with

helpful:

zombie

helpful:

lawn

helpful:

gnomes

helpful:

and

helpful:

electronic

helpful:

portraits

helpful:

that

helpful:

morphed

helpful:

in

helpful:

sinister

helpful:

ways.

helpful:

Beyond

helpful:

lay

helpful:

a

helpful:

darkened

helpful:

hallway,

helpful:

constructed

helpful:

out

helpful:

of

helpful:

painted

helpful:

chipboard.

Cindy's

helpful:

dad

helpful:

popped

helpful:

out

helpful:

from

helpful:

just

helpful:

inside

helpful:

the

helpful:

tunnel,

helpful:

clad

helpful:

in

helpful:

a

helpful:

black

helpful:

and

helpful:

crimson

helpful:

cape. "Ah!

helpful:

Fresh

helpful:

blood!

helpful:

Welcome

helpful:

to

helpful:

Windfall's

helpful:

oldest

helpful:

and

helpful:

spookiest

helpful:

house

helpful:

of

helpful:

horrors."

helpful:

The

helpful:

spaniel

helpful:

cackled,

helpful:

showing

helpful:

a

helpful:

set

helpful:

of

helpful:

plastic

helpful:

fang

helpful:

extenders. "Stay

helpful:

together.

helpful:

Stay

helpful:

on

helpful:

the

helpful:

track.

helpful:

Stay

helpful:

alive.

helpful:

For

helpful:

legal

reasons,

helpful:

we

helpful:

must

helpful:

ask

helpful:

that

helpful:

you

helpful:

not

touch

helpful:

the

actors.

helpful:

Bwahahahaha!"

Kylie

helpful:

rolled

helpful:

her

helpful:

eyes

helpful:

and

helpful:

pushed

helpful:

the

helpful:

group

helpful:

onward.

helpful:

Whatever

helpful:

lay

helpful:

ahead,

helpful:

it

helpful:

couldn't

helpful:

be

helpful:

worse

helpful:

than

helpful:

sticking

helpful:

around

helpful:

near

helpful:

the

helpful:

lobby

helpful:

where

helpful:

Cindy

helpful:

could

helpful:

come

helpful:

back

helpful:

and

helpful:

perv

helpful:

on

helpful:

her

boyfriend.

helpful:

They

helpful:

passed

helpful:

through

helpful:

a

helpful:

curtain

helpful:

of

helpful:

heavy,

helpful:

tattered,

helpful:

black

helpful:

felt.

When

helpful:

rubber

snakes

dropped

down

helpful:

from

the

ceiling,

helpful:

Kylie

helpful:

jumped,

helpful:

but

helpful:

managed

helpful:

to

helpful:

laugh.

helpful:

When

helpful:

a

helpful:

creature

helpful:

with

helpful:

a

mishmash

helpful:

of

predator

traits

helpful:

prowled

past,

she

grit

her

teeth

until

her

jaw

hurt.

helpful:

When

a

cycloptic

elephant

skull

helpful:

peeked

helpful:

around

the

corner,

helpful:

a

chill

welled

helpful:

in

the

pit

helpful:

of

her

stomach.

helpful:

When

what

she'd

assumed

was

a

jumped

up —clad

a

that

only

dolphin

sopranos

helpful:

normally

reach

and

clung

to

her

boyfriend.

Without

even

flinching,

helpful:

the

helpful:

dog's

helpful:

thick

helpful:

paw

helpful:

closed

helpful:

around

helpful:

hers.

helpful:

He

helpful:

smirked

helpful:

down

helpful:

at

helpful:

her

helpful:

and

helpful:

wagged

helpful:

his

helpful:

cloth

helpful:

dinosaur

helpful:

tail.

"Shut

helpful:

up."

helpful:

She

helpful:

didn't

helpful:

loosen

helpful:

her

helpful:

grip.

The

group

helpful:

pressed

on,

past

fog

and

sickly-green

Small

The

with

caressed

They

passed

into

a

nautical

section

of

the

house.

A

Kylie

scampered

up,

eager

to

get

helpful:

to

something

helpful:

more

familiar.

helpful:

The

floor

had

been

warped

to

give

the

of

over

any

A

Its

out at

The

boyfriend,

helpful:

almost

helpful:

tripping

helpful:

him.

helpful:

Her

helpful:

paws gripped at

helpful:

his

helpful:

shirt

helpful:

and

helpful:

costume

helpful:

as

helpful:

she

helpful:

clung

helpful:

to

helpful:

him

helpful:

for

helpful:

dear

helpful:

life.

Sarah

helpful:

likewise

helpful:

sprung

helpful:

about

helpful:

a

helpful:

foot

helpful:

in

helpful:

the

helpful:

air,

helpful:

then

helpful:

landed

helpful:

with

helpful:

a

helpful:

giggle.

A

helpful:

very

helpful:

familiar

helpful:

horn

helpful:

stuck

helpful:

out

helpful:

of

helpful:

the

helpful:

top

helpful:

of

helpful:

the

helpful:

swamp

helpful:

creature

helpful:

as it

helpful:

retreated

helpful:

to

helpful:

its

helpful:

hiding

helpful:

place.

"Wait—was

helpful:

that

helpful:

Karl?"

helpful:

She

helpful:

realized

helpful:

she

helpful:

was

helpful:

hiding

helpful:

behind

helpful:

Max

helpful:

and

helpful:

popped

helpful:

upright

helpful:

with

helpful:

embarrassment.

Shane's

helpful:

tail

helpful:

lashed

helpful:

in

helpful:

silent

helpful:

amusement.

helpful:

His

helpful:

green

helpful:

eyes

helpful:

flicked

helpful:

around

helpful:

the

helpful:

room,

helpful:

catching

helpful:

the

helpful:

strange

helpful:

light

helpful:

in

helpful:

unnatural

helpful:

flashes.

"Oh

helpful:

sorry!"

helpful:

The

helpful:

monster

helpful:

lifted

helpful:

some

helpful:

of

helpful:

the

helpful:

fake

helpful:

vegetation

helpful:

to

helpful:

reveal

helpful:

a

helpful:

small,

helpful:

dark,

helpful:

excitable

helpful:

eye. "I

helpful:

thought

helpful:

you

helpful:

were

helpful:

a

helpful:

little

helpful:

kid!"

A

helpful:

sputter

helpful:

of

helpful:

outrage

helpful:

issued

helpful:

from

helpful:

her

helpful:

round

helpful:

little

helpful:

muzzle. "I'm

helpful:

older

helpful:

than

helpful:

you!"

"I've

helpful:

gotta get back." The rhinoceros

helpful:

called

helpful:

above

helpful:

the

helpful:

spooky

helpful:

soundtrack

helpful:

and

helpful:

thumped

helpful:

back

helpful:

into

helpful:

position

helpful:

for

helpful:

the

helpful:

next

helpful:

group. "Have

helpful:

fun!"

Kylie

helpful:

drew

helpful:

in

helpful:

on

helpful:

herself,

helpful:

feeling

helpful:

foolish.

helpful:

Only

helpful:

a

helpful:

few

helpful:

rhinos

helpful:

lived

helpful:

in

helpful:

town,

helpful:

and

helpful:

if

helpful:

she'd

helpful:

taken

helpful:

half

helpful:

a

helpful:

second

helpful:

to

helpful:

think

helpful:

she

helpful:

could

helpful:

have

helpful:

realized

helpful:

that

helpful:

none

helpful:

of

helpful:

them

helpful:

were

helpful:

exactly

helpful:

threatening.

helpful:

She

helpful:

needed

helpful:

to

helpful:

calm

helpful:

down

helpful:

and

helpful:

stop

helpful:

acting

helpful:

like

helpful:

a

helpful:

pup.

A

helpful:

green

helpful:

dragon

helpful:

roared

helpful:

down

helpful:

from

helpful:

the

helpful:

rafters,

helpful:

spreading

helpful:

leathery

helpful:

wings.

helpful:

Flames

helpful:

wooshed

helpful:

down

helpful:

from

helpful:

its maw.

helpful:

For an

helpful:

instant,

helpful:

the

helpful:

passage

helpful:

gleamed

helpful:

with

helpful:

the

helpful:

flare

helpful:

of

helpful:

firelight.

The

helpful:

otter

helpful:

leapt,

helpful:

flailed

helpful:

at

helpful:

the

helpful:

air,

helpful:

and

helpful:

almost

helpful:

tripped

helpful:

backward

helpful:

over

helpful:

her

helpful:

own

helpful:

tail.

helpful:

A

helpful:

thrill

helpful:

of

helpful:

cold

helpful:

disquiet

helpful:

ran

helpful:

through

helpful:

her

helpful:

body,

helpful:

calmed

helpful:

only a

helpful:

little

helpful:

by

helpful:

the

helpful:

familiar

helpful:

husky

helpful:

paw

helpful:

that

helpful:

steadied

helpful:

her

helpful:

from

helpful:

behind.

Bouncing

helpful:

back

helpful:

from

helpful:

the

helpful:

commotion,

helpful:

Sarah

helpful:

squeaked

helpful:

with

helpful:

surprise,

helpful:

then

helpful:

laughed.

helpful:

Shane,

helpful:

as

helpful:

usual,

helpful:

trailed

helpful:

behind

helpful:

and

helpful:

gloated

helpful:

at

helpful:

their

helpful:

every

helpful:

scared

helpful:

reaction.

The

helpful:

bat

helpful:

in

helpful:

the

helpful:

dragon

helpful:

mask

helpful:

wiggled

helpful:

wing

helpful:

fingers

helpful:

at

helpful:

them

helpful:

and

helpful:

pocketed

helpful:

the

helpful:

lighter

helpful:

she'd

helpful:

used

helpful:

for

helpful:

the

helpful:

fire-breathing. "You

helpful:

can

helpful:

start

helpful:

the

helpful:

maze at

helpful:

any

helpful:

of

helpful:

these

helpful:

doors,

helpful:

but

helpful:

choose

helpful:

wisely.

helpful:

You

helpful:

never

helpful:

can

helpful:

tell

helpful:

what

helpful:

lies

helpful:

ahead."

Smarting

helpful:

from

helpful:

the

helpful:

Karl

helpful:

incident,

helpful:

she

helpful:

waved

helpful:

Max

helpful:

off.

helpful:

The

helpful:

otter

helpful:

stomped

helpful:

to

helpful:

the

helpful:

farthest

helpful:

door,

helpful:

yanked

helpful:

it

helpful:

open,

helpful:

socked

helpful:

the

helpful:

dangling

helpful:

paper

helpful:

skeleton,

helpful:

and

helpful:

slammed

helpful:

the

helpful:

door

helpful:

after

helpful:

her.

Through

helpful:

the

helpful:

door, she

helpful:

heard

helpful:

him

helpful:

gave

helpful:

a

helpful:

whine

helpful:

that

helpful:

hurt

helpful:

her

helpful:

heart

helpful:

as

helpful:

much

helpful:

as

helpful:

the

helpful:

scares

helpful:

had

helpful:

hurt

helpful:

her

helpful:

pride,

helpful:

but

helpful:

soon

helpful:

his

helpful:

claws

helpful:

clicked

helpful:

along

helpful:

the

helpful:

floor

helpful:

to

helpful:

another

helpful:

door.

Endless

helpful:

twists

helpful:

and

helpful:

turns

helpful:

awaited

helpful:

her.

helpful:

At

helpful:

one

helpful:

point,

helpful:

she

helpful:

had

helpful:

to

helpful:

eel

helpful:

through

helpful:

a

helpful:

hallway

helpful:

filled

helpful:

by

helpful:

giant

helpful:

bladders

helpful:

of

helpful:

air.

helpful:

As

helpful:

soon

helpful:

as

helpful:

she

helpful:

escaped

helpful:

from

helpful:

that,

helpful:

a

helpful:

fog

helpful:

machine

helpful:

blasted

helpful:

her

helpful:

with

helpful:

a

helpful:

rain forest's

helpful:

worth

helpful:

of

helpful:

humidity.

helpful:

Otters

helpful:

can

helpful:

see

helpful:

through

helpful:

water

helpful:

and

helpful:

air

helpful:

just

helpful:

fine,

helpful:

but

helpful:

the

helpful:

mixture

helpful:

sent her

helpful:

stumbling.

helpful:

She

helpful:

punched

helpful:

her

helpful:

way

helpful:

through

helpful:

a

helpful:

heavy

helpful:

curtain,

helpful:

bounced

helpful:

off

helpful:

some

helpful:

walls,

helpful:

then

helpful:

tripped

helpful:

into

helpful:

complete

helpful:

darkness.

helpful:

Using

helpful:

the

helpful:

uneven

helpful:

wall as

helpful:

a

helpful:

guide,

helpful:

she

helpful:

pressed

helpful:

on,

helpful:

swearing

helpful:

as

helpful:

she

helpful:

bumped

helpful:

into

helpful:

pillars

helpful:

and

helpful:

struts. "Ugh!"

Kylie

helpful:

fumbled

helpful:

for

helpful:

her

helpful:

stupid,

helpful:

useless

helpful:

keychain

helpful:

flashlight,

helpful:

turning

helpful:

the

helpful:

feeble

helpful:

LED on

helpful:

the

helpful:

walls

helpful:

and

helpful:

confirming

helpful:

her

suspicions:

suspicions:

She'd

suspicions:

somehow

suspicions:

gotten

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

turned

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

she'd

suspicions:

wandered

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

catacombs

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

civic

suspicions:

center,

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

narrow

suspicions:

brick

suspicions:

hallway

suspicions:

stretching

suspicions:

off

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

blackness,

suspicions:

devoid

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

either

suspicions:

life

suspicions:

or

suspicions:

Halloween

suspicions:

decorations.

She

suspicions:

huffed,

suspicions:

mostly to

suspicions:

put

suspicions:

some

suspicions:

sound

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

eerie

suspicions:

silence.

suspicions:

Wonderful.

suspicions:

Now

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

had to

suspicions:

fumble

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

total

suspicions:

freaking

suspicions:

darkness,

suspicions:

hoping

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

find

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

way

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

accidentally-creepy

suspicions:

portion

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

building

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

part

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

deliberately

suspicions:

creepy.

suspicions:

And

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

she'd

suspicions:

have

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

explain

suspicions:

where

suspicions:

she'd

suspicions:

been,

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

Shane

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

Sarah

suspicions:

would

suspicions:

think

suspicions:

she was an

suspicions:

idiot,

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

Max

suspicions:

would

suspicions:

get all

suspicions:

worried

suspicions:

because

suspicions:

he'd

suspicions:

assume she'd

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

scared,

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

because

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

true

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

mean--

"Excuse

suspicions:

me,

suspicions:

are

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

lost?"

"Yauagh!" Kylie articulated,

suspicions:

shooting

suspicions:

three

suspicions:

feet

suspicions:

straight

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

air

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

heart

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

stomach

suspicions:

abruptly

suspicions:

switched

suspicions:

places.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

landed

suspicions:

awkwardly,

suspicions:

falling

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

wall

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

turned

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

assailant.

An

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

stood

suspicions:

before

suspicions:

her,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

river

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

like

suspicions:

her.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

stood

suspicions:

several

suspicions:

inches

suspicions:

taller

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

white-tinged

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

bristly

suspicions:

whiskers.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

wore a

suspicions:

black

suspicions:

windbreaker

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

frightfully

suspicions:

neon

suspicions:

highlights.

"Whoa,

suspicions:

chill."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

matronly

suspicions:

sea

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

held

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

webbed

suspicions:

paws. "You

suspicions:

wander

suspicions:

off

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

track?"

"Yeah!

suspicions:

Sorry..."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

river

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

made

suspicions:

herself

suspicions:

start

suspicions:

breathing

suspicions:

again,

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

entire

suspicions:

pelt

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

end. "I

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

turned

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dark."

"Well,

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

look

suspicions:

like

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

teenaged

suspicions:

thrill-seeker,

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

believe

suspicions:

you."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

taller

suspicions:

female

suspicions:

wiggled

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

bushy

suspicions:

whiskers.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

costume

suspicions:

consisted

suspicions:

of 80s

suspicions:

clothes

suspicions:

grabbed

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

closet,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

mom

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

tried

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

pass

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

off

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

costume

suspicions:

before,

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

seem

suspicions:

too

suspicions:

weird. "I

suspicions:

keep

suspicions:

telling

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

scarers

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

need

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

make

suspicions:

sure

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

shut

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

doors."

Kylie

suspicions:

grinned.

suspicions:

Most

suspicions:

adults

suspicions:

assumed

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

mid

suspicions:

teens,

suspicions:

which

suspicions:

gets

suspicions:

old

suspicions:

after

suspicions:

half

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

decade.

suspicions:

Must

suspicions:

be

suspicions:

because

suspicions:

she's

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

fellow

suspicions:

lutrine.

"Edith."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

offered

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

paw. "I

suspicions:

work

suspicions:

here."

The

suspicions:

younger

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

shook

suspicions:

it. "Kylie.

suspicions:

I'm

suspicions:

lost

suspicions:

here."

"That's

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

rad

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

costume."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

sea

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

glanced

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

get-up. "Red

suspicions:

Riding

suspicions:

Hood?"

"Yeah.

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

separated from

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

Big

suspicions:

Bad

suspicions:

Wolf.

suspicions:

He's

suspicions:

dressed

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

dinosaur.

suspicions:

Probably

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

space

suspicions:

bunny

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

cat."

The

suspicions:

older

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

arched an

suspicions:

eyebrow. "Gotcha.

suspicions:

What's

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

cat

suspicions:

going

suspicions:

as?"

"Wet

suspicions:

blanket,

suspicions:

like

suspicions:

always."

"Ah,

suspicions:

normal

suspicions:

clothes."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

clicked

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

flashlight

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

pointed it

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

corridor. "Let's

suspicions:

see

suspicions:

if

suspicions:

we

suspicions:

can

suspicions:

find

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

scare-holes."

"Scare-holes?"

suspicions:

Kylie

suspicions:

followed

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

struts

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

electrical

suspicions:

cords

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

access

suspicions:

passage.

"It's

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

we've

suspicions:

always

suspicions:

called

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

doors

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

open

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

main

suspicions:

track."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

popped

suspicions:

open

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

porthole

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

poked

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

whiskery

suspicions:

nose

suspicions:

through. "Back

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

day,

suspicions:

we

suspicions:

only

suspicions:

would've

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

track

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

check,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

now

suspicions:

they've

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

maze.

suspicions:

I've

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

pushing

suspicions:

for a

suspicions:

water

suspicions:

fixture."

Kylie

suspicions:

tailed

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

larger

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

spied

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

various

suspicions:

peepholes

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

track.

suspicions:

Muted

suspicions:

music

suspicions:

echoed

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

other

suspicions:

side

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

walls,

suspicions:

less

suspicions:

scary

suspicions:

now

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

less creepy

suspicions:

context.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

paws still wrung

suspicions:

each

suspicions:

other,

suspicions:

feeling

suspicions:

cold.

"You

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

seem

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

be

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

excited

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

get

suspicions:

back."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

taller

suspicions:

lutrine

suspicions:

peered

suspicions:

through another

suspicions:

panel,

suspicions:

letting

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

curl

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

fog. "Haunted

suspicions:

houses

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

your

suspicions:

scene?"

"I

suspicions:

thought they were!"

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

shrug

suspicions:

rippled

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

Kylie's

suspicions:

flexible

suspicions:

spine. "And then I got here and…" She paused for an instant, then figured it couldn't possibly matter to vent to a friendly stranger. Plus, the jumble of feelings in her guts felt like they had to be said out loud to get untangled. "I used to

suspicions:

like

suspicions:

getting

suspicions:

scared.

suspicions:

Then

suspicions:

some

suspicions:

actually

suspicions:

scary

suspicions:

stuff

suspicions:

happened

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

now

suspicions:

I'm

suspicions:

all

suspicions:

weird about it."

The other otter nodded. The concern in her eyes could be spotted even in the dim light.

"Nothing bad actually happened, really. I didn't get hurt or anything." Her hands squeezed into fists for a moment as she gripped at the thought. "But, it turns out there's a lot I don't understand about how the world works. And now the fun kind of scary is just…gone. Ya know?"

The older girl nodded and fostered a slight smile. "Well, it's

suspicions:

probably

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

gone

suspicions:

forever.

suspicions:

We

suspicions:

wouldn't

suspicions:

stay

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

business

suspicions:

long

suspicions:

if

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

worked

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

way."

suspicions:

Ignoring

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

screams

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

scampers

suspicions:

within,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

slunk

suspicions:

under

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

rise

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

tunnel

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

access

suspicions:

another

suspicions:

part

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

maze.

suspicions:

Here,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

peered

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

heavy

suspicions:

black

suspicions:

curtain,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

no

suspicions:

avail. "The

more

you

a

way,

gets

to

suspicions:

The

is

based

the

"Easier

said

suspicions:

than

suspicions:

done..."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

river

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

snapped

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

shut.

suspicions:

This

suspicions:

random

lady

didn't

want

her

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

seem

suspicions:

phased. "For

suspicions:

me,

suspicions:

Halloween's

suspicions:

about

suspicions:

laughing

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

your

suspicions:

own

suspicions:

fear,

suspicions:

finding

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

way

suspicions:

of

looking

at

it

that

takes

back

its

power

over

you.

Get

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

blood

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

those

feel-good

brain

chemicals

suspicions:

going."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

considered. "Also,

suspicions:

candy."

Though

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

worried

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

guide

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

about

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

burst

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

children's

suspicions:

cartoon

suspicions:

song,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

younger

suspicions:

mustelid

suspicions:

pondered

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

notion.

suspicions:

What

suspicions:

would

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

take

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

feel

suspicions:

safe

suspicions:

again?

Edith

suspicions:

checked

suspicions:

another

suspicions:

passage,

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

wiggled

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

whiskers

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

dismay. "Starting

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

think

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

is

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

lost

suspicions:

cause."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

waved

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

flashlight

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

distant

suspicions:

orange

suspicions:

exit

suspicions:

sign. "Let's

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

get

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

outside.

suspicions:

You

suspicions:

can

suspicions:

catch

suspicions:

your

suspicions:

friends

suspicions:

when

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

come

suspicions:

out."

The

suspicions:

pair

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

mustelids padded

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

event

suspicions:

center's

suspicions:

many

suspicions:

back doors.

The

suspicions:

taller

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

let

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

slam

suspicions:

behind

suspicions:

her,

suspicions:

clicking

suspicions:

locked. "Okay,

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

cruise

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

building

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

you'll

suspicions:

see

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

main

suspicions:

exit."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

pointed

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

webbed

suspicions:

digit. "If

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

see

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

lobby

suspicions:

entrance,

suspicions:

you've

suspicions:

gone

suspicions:

too

suspicions:

far."

Kylie

suspicions:

nodded

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

closed

suspicions:

steel

suspicions:

door. "Aren't

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

stuck

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

here

suspicions:

too?"

"Nah.

suspicions:

This

suspicions:

is

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

personal

suspicions:

entrance."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

gave the

suspicions:

locked

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

handle

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

practiced

suspicions:

jiggle

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

popped

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

open. "Hang

suspicions:

loose—and

suspicions:

think

suspicions:

about

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

said."

After

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

rescuer

suspicions:

vanished

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dark,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

younger

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

stood

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

moment.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

closed.

suspicions:

Then

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

distant

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

familiar

suspicions:

whimper

suspicions:

caught

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

attention.

suspicions:

Around

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

corner

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

building,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

glimpsed

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

Maxosaurus

suspicions:

milling

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

crowd,

suspicions:

clearly

suspicions:

looking

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

someone.

The

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

cleared

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

throat. "Hey

suspicions:

Maxie!"

His

suspicions:

ears

suspicions:

popped

suspicions:

up.

suspicions:

Those

suspicions:

blue

suspicions:

eyes

suspicions:

brightened

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

her.

She

suspicions:

slipped

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

loose

suspicions:

crowd

suspicions:

toward

suspicions:

him. "You

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

fast."

"I

suspicions:

hurried."

suspicions:

He

suspicions:

trotted

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

her.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

fingers

suspicions:

traced

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

arm.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

chewed

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

question

suspicions:

or

suspicions:

two

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

trying

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

ask.

She

suspicions:

squirmed,

suspicions:

remembering

suspicions:

how

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

stormed

suspicions:

off. "I

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

mean

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

make

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

worry."

He

suspicions:

bent

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

bump

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

nose to hears. "It wouldn't have been as much fun without you

suspicions:

anyway."

Her

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

angled

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

give

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

kiss.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

started

suspicions:

to think

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

how

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

explain

suspicions:

how

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

wandered

suspicions:

off

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

track

suspicions:

without

suspicions:

sounding

suspicions:

stupid,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

space

suspicions:

bunny

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

sourpuss

suspicions:

exited

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

building.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

pair

suspicions:

waved

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

over.

Sarah

suspicions:

moon-bounced

suspicions:

over. "What'd ya

suspicions:

think?"

With

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

quick

suspicions:

glance

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

boyfriend,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

shrugged. "It

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

actually

suspicions:

pretty

suspicions:

cool."

"I

suspicions:

know,

suspicions:

right?"

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

beamed

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

inside

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

clear

suspicions:

helmet,

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

shoved

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

brother

suspicions:

toward

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

car. "Come

suspicions:

on.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

high

suspicions:

school

suspicions:

always

suspicions:

hosts

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

super

suspicions:

great

suspicions:

Halloween

party."

A

suspicions:

couple

suspicions:

hours

suspicions:

later,

suspicions:

Kylie

suspicions:

sat

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

side

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

Windfall

suspicions:

High

suspicions:

School

suspicions:

cafeteria.

suspicions:

Shane

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

Sarah

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

led

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

there,

suspicions:

only

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

vanish

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

crowd

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

talk

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

old

suspicions:

friends.

suspicions:

Meanwhile,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

pretended

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

text

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

phone

suspicions:

while

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

DJ

suspicions:

showed

suspicions:

unnatural

suspicions:

enthusiasm

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

loop

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

royalty-free

suspicions:

Halloween

suspicions:

songs

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

stage

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

gymnasium.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

between

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

two

suspicions:

large

suspicions:

rooms

suspicions:

opened

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

closed

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

each

suspicions:

passing

suspicions:

student,

suspicions:

muting

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

unmuting

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

music.

The

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

sat

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

corner

suspicions:

near

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

entrance,

suspicions:

nursing

suspicions:

watery

suspicions:

punch

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

deep

suspicions:

thoughts.

suspicions:

That

suspicions:

Edith

suspicions:

lady

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

made

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

interesting

suspicions:

point.

suspicions:

How

suspicions:

could

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

take

suspicions:

control

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

fear?

suspicions:

An

suspicions:

idle

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

pocket

suspicions:

clicked her

suspicions:

keychain

suspicions:

flashlight.

The

suspicions:

massive

suspicions:

husky

suspicions:

could

suspicions:

be

suspicions:

seen

suspicions:

weaving

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

clusters

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

teenagers

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

young

suspicions:

adults.

suspicions:

Max

suspicions:

sat

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

beside

suspicions:

her,

suspicions:

two

suspicions:

tiny

suspicions:

cups

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

punch

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

massive

suspicions:

hand,

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

third

suspicions:

plate

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

snacks

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

other.

suspicions:

Nearing,

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

smiled

suspicions:

down at

suspicions:

her,

suspicions:

juxtaposed by

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

serious

suspicions:

eyebrows

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

dinosaur

suspicions:

costume. "May

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

kick

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

wall

suspicions:

yet?"

"Could

suspicions:

you?

suspicions:

Maybe

suspicions:

it's

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

because

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

know

suspicions:

anybody

suspicions:

here,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

I'm

suspicions:

feeling

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

too

suspicions:

old

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

party."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

took

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

offered

suspicions:

cup

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

glanced

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

cafeteria

suspicions:

door. "These

suspicions:

high

suspicions:

school

suspicions:

kids

suspicions:

keep

suspicions:

making

suspicions:

jokes

suspicions:

about

suspicions:

extracting

suspicions:

your

suspicions:

DNA.

suspicions:

Mostly

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

girls."

"Yeah."

suspicions:

He

suspicions:

munched

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

some

suspicions:

sections

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

submarine

suspicions:

sandwich. "I

suspicions:

heard

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

tell

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

friend

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

go

suspicions:

Isla

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

Nublar." A couple gulps drained the small

suspicions:

cup

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

punch. "I

suspicions:

suspect

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

failed

suspicions:

Spanish."

With

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

subdued

suspicions:

chuckle,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

lutrine

suspicions:

pocketed

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

phone.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

teenage

suspicions:

fox

suspicions:

padded

suspicions:

past

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

samurai

suspicions:

sword

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

least

suspicions:

eight

suspicions:

extra

suspicions:

tails.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

leaned

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

husky

suspicions:

boyfriend's

suspicions:

reassuring

suspicions:

bulk.

He

suspicions:

patted

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

shoulder. "You

suspicions:

doing

suspicions:

okay?"

"Yeah."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

clicked

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

flashlight

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

few

suspicions:

more

suspicions:

times.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

soft

suspicions:

crinkle

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

pocket

suspicions:

reminded

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

else

suspicions:

lay

suspicions:

there.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

wild

suspicions:

plan

suspicions:

started

suspicions:

clicking

suspicions:

together

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

mind.

At

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

pause,

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

took

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

by

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

led

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

crowd

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

front

suspicions:

door.

suspicions:

They

suspicions:

angled

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

thinning

suspicions:

crowd

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

chill

suspicions:

night

suspicions:

air.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

short

suspicions:

jaunt

suspicions:

saw

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

across

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

parking

suspicions:

lot

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

mother's

suspicions:

hatchback

suspicions:

wagon.

As

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

crossed

suspicions:

town,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

passed

suspicions:

by

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

event

suspicions:

center

suspicions:

again,

suspicions:

its

suspicions:

haunted

suspicions:

house

suspicions:

trappings dark.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

parking

suspicions:

lot

suspicions:

stood

suspicions:

empty.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

whole

suspicions:

place

suspicions:

looked

suspicions:

deserted.

suspicions:

Kylie

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

idea.

On

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

impulse,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

veered

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

lot.

"What

suspicions:

are

suspicions:

we

suspicions:

doing?"

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

husky

suspicions:

cocked

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

ears

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

sudden

suspicions:

course

suspicions:

correction.

She

suspicions:

pulled up

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

building. "I

suspicions:

wanna

suspicions:

take

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

look

suspicions:

around."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

hopped

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

car. "C'mon."

The

suspicions:

dog

suspicions:

made

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

series

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

growly

suspicions:

grumbles,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

followed.

She

suspicions:

reached

suspicions:

Edith's

suspicions:

personal

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

and,

suspicions:

after

suspicions:

much

suspicions:

shaking,

suspicions:

jostling,

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

rattling,

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

get

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

much

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

budge.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

chattered

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

frustration

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

tried

suspicions:

again.

suspicions:

Same

suspicions:

result.

He

suspicions:

raised

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

eyebrow. "So,

suspicions:

by

suspicions:

look

suspicions:

around,

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

meant

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

wanted

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

throttle

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

handle?"

"I

suspicions:

swear

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

is

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

let

suspicions:

me—"

suspicions:

Click.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

faulty

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

clicked

suspicions:

open.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

swung

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

open

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

rest

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

way

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

squeak

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

pride. "Told

suspicions:

ya."

Max

suspicions:

padded

suspicions:

after

suspicions:

her,

suspicions:

giving

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

space

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

wary

suspicions:

sniff. "Okay,

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

we're

suspicions:

trespassing."

"Exploring."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

popped

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

head

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

make

suspicions:

sure

suspicions:

no

suspicions:

one

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

seen

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

enter,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

parking

suspicions:

lot

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

dead

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

ever.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

shut

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

clicked

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

feeble

suspicions:

flashlight.

"Uh-huh."

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

husky

suspicions:

clicked

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

much

suspicions:

better

suspicions:

flashlight,

suspicions:

sweeping

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

beam

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dark

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

cramped

suspicions:

passage. "Exploring

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

exactly?"

"Fear.

suspicions:

Love.

suspicions:

Sex."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

gestured

suspicions:

dramatically

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

access

suspicions:

corridor,

suspicions:

flashing

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

across

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

face.

suspicions:

Taking

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

by

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

hand,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

led

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

deeper

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

building.

suspicions:

Anxiety

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

anticipation

suspicions:

bubbled

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

inside

suspicions:

her.

suspicions:

Could

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

really

suspicions:

go

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

this?

suspicions:

Sure,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

place

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

deserted,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

someone

suspicions:

could

suspicions:

have

suspicions:

forgotten

suspicions:

something

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

come

suspicions:

back.

suspicions:

Even

suspicions:

the nice sea otter

suspicions:

lady from

suspicions:

before

suspicions:

wouldn't

suspicions:

approve of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

shagging

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

boyfriend

suspicions:

next

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

pile

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

exotic

suspicions:

gourds.

"Okay,

suspicions:

if

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

writers

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

tried

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

make

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

say

suspicions:

something

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

cliché on the show, you would've thrown a

suspicions:

fit." He

suspicions:

growled

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

nervous

suspicions:

laugh

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

ducked

suspicions:

under

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

strut.

suspicions:

Those

suspicions:

pointy

suspicions:

ears

suspicions:

scanned

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dark

suspicions:

corridor. "Sounds

suspicions:

like

suspicions:

nobody's

suspicions:

home."

"See?

suspicions:

You

suspicions:

should

suspicions:

trust

suspicions:

me."

suspicions:

Passing

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

another

suspicions:

door,

suspicions:

they emerged

suspicions:

onto

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

scare

suspicions:

track.

suspicions:

Instead

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

eerie

suspicions:

music,

suspicions:

silence

suspicions:

awaited.

suspicions:

Here

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

there,

suspicions:

dim

suspicions:

lights

suspicions:

cast

suspicions:

intricate

suspicions:

shadows

suspicions:

through the

suspicions:

dangling

suspicions:

rubber

suspicions:

snakes

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

fake

suspicions:

tree

suspicions:

branches.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

heart

suspicions:

racing,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

still

suspicions:

took

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

moment

Dragging

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

start

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

maze,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

flashed

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

big

suspicions:

grin. "I'm

suspicions:

good

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

getting

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

right

suspicions:

amount

suspicions:

of

trouble."

Several

suspicions:

shades

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

painted

suspicions:

Max's

suspicions:

monochrome

suspicions:

fur

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

complex

overlays. "Now

suspicions:

there's

suspicions:

something

suspicions:

Red

suspicions:

Riding

suspicions:

Hood

suspicions:

might

suspicions:

actually

suspicions:

say."

Spinning

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

face

suspicions:

him,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

sauntered

suspicions:

closer.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

wiggled

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

puffed

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

chest,

suspicions:

making

suspicions:

sure

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

breasts

suspicions:

stood

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

red

suspicions:

bodice.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

round

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

nuzzled up

suspicions:

under

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

blockier

suspicions:

one.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

webbed

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

cupped

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

front

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

jeans. "My,

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

big

suspicions:

cock

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

have."

He

suspicions:

cast

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

nervous

suspicions:

glance

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

darkness. "I

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

know

suspicions:

about

suspicions:

this,

suspicions:

rudderbutt..."

"Come

suspicions:

on."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

rubbed

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

supple

suspicions:

body

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

his. "The

suspicions:

whole

suspicions:

point

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

overcome

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

fears.

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

never

suspicions:

feel

suspicions:

safer

suspicions:

than

suspicions:

when

suspicions:

I'm

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

you."

A

suspicions:

whine

suspicions:

escaped

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

throat. "But

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

said

suspicions:

we were

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

taking

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

look

suspicions:

around."

Her

suspicions:

webbed

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

closed

suspicions:

over

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

bulge

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

front

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

pants.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

arched

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

nuzzle

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

neck

suspicions:

fluff,

suspicions:

under

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

green

suspicions:

dinosaur

suspicions:

hood. "Are

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

complaining?"

"Not

suspicions:

exactly..."

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

feet

suspicions:

shuffled

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

floor,

suspicions:

taking

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

stance that

suspicions:

allowed

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

rub

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

without

suspicions:

tipping

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

over. "...but

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

know

suspicions:

if

suspicions:

it's

suspicions:

worth

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

risk.

suspicions:

Someone

suspicions:

might

suspicions:

hear."

She

suspicions:

knelt

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

front

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

him. "Bet

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

can

suspicions:

change

suspicions:

your

suspicions:

mind."

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

webbed

suspicions:

fingers

suspicions:

deftly

suspicions:

pulled

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

boxers

suspicions:

down.

suspicions:

Though

suspicions:

only

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

red

suspicions:

tip

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

cock

suspicions:

shone

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dim

suspicions:

light,

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

sheath

suspicions:

felt

suspicions:

firm

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

plump.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

kissed

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

slit,

suspicions:

savoring

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

faint

suspicions:

salinity

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

precum.

suspicions:

Gingerly

suspicions:

strokes

suspicions:

worked

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

sheath

suspicions:

down,

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

up,

suspicions:

again

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

again

suspicions:

over

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

smooth

suspicions:

shaft.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

balls

suspicions:

rocked

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

elastic

suspicions:

waistband.

The

suspicions:

dog

suspicions:

himself

suspicions:

leaned

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

wall.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

blue

suspicions:

boxer

suspicions:

briefs

suspicions:

slid

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

knees.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

hips

suspicions:

shuddered

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

resist

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

efforts. "Kylie..."

"Shh..."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

brushed

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

head

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

cock

suspicions:

under

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

soft

suspicions:

fuzz

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

chin. "Someone

suspicions:

might

suspicions:

hear."

He

suspicions:

gave

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

muffled

suspicions:

woof

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

stimulation.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

faint

suspicions:

wet

suspicions:

heat

suspicions:

collected

suspicions:

where

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

tip

suspicions:

touched

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

chin.

suspicions:

Upon

suspicions:

pulling

suspicions:

back,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

saw

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

thin

suspicions:

sheen

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

precum,

suspicions:

shimmering

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

surreal

suspicions:

lighting,

suspicions:

tempting

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

lap

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

up.

The

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

dove

suspicions:

forward,

suspicions:

engulfing

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

length

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

eager

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

muzzle.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

smile

suspicions:

bobbed

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

boyfriend's

suspicions:

hardening

suspicions:

dick. "Mmmmm."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

drew

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

sound

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

moan

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

make

suspicions:

sure

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

vibrated

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

flesh.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

tongue

suspicions:

swirled

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

twirled,

suspicions:

tasting

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

arousal

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

leaked

suspicions:

even

suspicions:

more

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

tip.

A

suspicions:

growled

suspicions:

moan

suspicions:

echoed

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

empty

suspicions:

corridor

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

leaned

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

wall

suspicions:

strung

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

fake

suspicions:

cobwebs.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

dinosaur-gloved

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

settled

suspicions:

behind

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

head,

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

pushing,

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

encouraging,

suspicions:

letting

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

know

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

felt

suspicions:

good.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

other

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

gripped

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

mossy

suspicions:

stone

suspicions:

pillar

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

support.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

expression

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

hazy,

suspicions:

mouth

suspicions:

open

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

panted.

After

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

minute

suspicions:

or

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

loving

suspicions:

suction,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

pulled

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

breath.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

caressed

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

boyfriend's

suspicions:

fluffy

suspicions:

balls

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

trembled

suspicions:

before

suspicions:

her.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

reached

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

side

suspicions:

pocket,

suspicions:

past her

suspicions:

keys

suspicions:

to a

suspicions:

plastic-wrapped

suspicions:

object.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

paws

suspicions:

left

suspicions:

Max's

suspicions:

cock

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

open

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

crinkly

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

stubborn wrapper.

"Are

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

unwrapping

suspicions:

candy?"

suspicions:

Those

suspicions:

sharp

suspicions:

ears

suspicions:

popped

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

again.

suspicions:

He

suspicions:

didn't

suspicions:

even

suspicions:

sound

suspicions:

offended.

suspicions:

Dogs.

"No!"

suspicions:

With

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

strategic

suspicions:

nibble,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

managed

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

open

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

plastic

suspicions:

package.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

glow-in-the-dark

suspicions:

ring

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

rubber

suspicions:

radiated

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dark

suspicions:

room. "But

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

is

suspicions:

supposed

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

be

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

treat."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

spat

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

chunk

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

wrapper. "I

suspicions:

dipped

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

our

suspicions:

supply."

suspicions:

She'd

suspicions:

ordered

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

box

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

canine

suspicions:

novelty

suspicions:

condoms

suspicions:

online.

suspicions:

Thus

suspicions:

far,

suspicions:

they had

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

lot

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

fun,

suspicions:

if

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

strictly

suspicions:

necessary

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

interspecies

suspicions:

couple.

His

suspicions:

face

suspicions:

lit

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dim

suspicions:

room.

suspicions:

That

suspicions:

green

suspicions:

dinosaur

suspicions:

tail

suspicions:

wagged

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

wall. "Wow,

suspicions:

that's

suspicions:

actually

suspicions:

glowing

suspicions:

really

suspicions:

well."

"I've

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

charging

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

pocket

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

keychain

suspicions:

flashlight

suspicions:

all

suspicions:

night."

suspicions:

Careful

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

puncture

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

thin

suspicions:

material

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

claws,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

eventually

suspicions:

ascertained

suspicions:

which

suspicions:

side

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

inside. "I

suspicions:

wasn't

suspicions:

sure

suspicions:

where

suspicions:

we

suspicions:

might

suspicions:

end

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

having

suspicions:

sex,

suspicions:

so

suspicions:

I

suspicions:

thought

suspicions:

I'd

suspicions:

better

suspicions:

bring

suspicions:

a way

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

find

suspicions:

your

suspicions:

dick

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

dark."

"You've

suspicions:

never

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

trouble

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

before—

suspicions:

Mmmf!"

suspicions:

He bit

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

woof

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

unrolled

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

condom

suspicions:

onto

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

jutting

suspicions:

erection.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

length

suspicions:

throbbed

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

settled

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

band

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

condom

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

opening

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

sheath.

She

suspicions:

nuzzled

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

glowing

suspicions:

member,

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

took

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

mouth.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

condom's

suspicions:

faint

suspicions:

chemical

suspicions:

taste

suspicions:

distracted

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

only

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

pleasing

suspicions:

heft

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

girth

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

cock.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

made

suspicions:

sure

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

get

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

extra

suspicions:

spit

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

before

suspicions:

pulling

suspicions:

off. "Mmmm,

suspicions:

now

suspicions:

there's

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

nice

suspicions:

treat."

With

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

growl,

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

pulled

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

close

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

pressed

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

wall

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

hungry

suspicions:

kiss.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

glow

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

dick

suspicions:

pressed

suspicions:

between

suspicions:

them,

suspicions:

its

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

catching

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

white

suspicions:

fur.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

eyeshine

suspicions:

glinted

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

rubbed

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

along

suspicions:

hers

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

a growl

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

lust. "Horny

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

otter."

Her

suspicions:

chitter

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

amusement

suspicions:

melted

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

sultry

suspicions:

laugh. "Big

suspicions:

sexy

suspicions:

doggy."

suspicions:

By

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

Max's

suspicions:

dick,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

lutrine

suspicions:

scurried

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

lover

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

wrapped

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

legs

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

waist.

suspicions:

After

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

brief

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

chittery

suspicions:

squabble

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

skirt

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

panties,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

managed

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

reach

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

guide

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

cock

suspicions:

in.

suspicions:

Heat

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

moisture

suspicions:

met

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

already-eager

suspicions:

slit.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

waggle

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

thick

suspicions:

tail

suspicions:

rocked

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

hips,

suspicions:

sinking

suspicions:

onto

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

inch

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

time.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

texture

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

condom

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

grippier

suspicions:

than

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

naked

suspicions:

cock.

suspicions:

This

suspicions:

might

suspicions:

have

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

problem

suspicions:

had

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

fairly

suspicions:

wet

suspicions:

already.

His

suspicions:

strong

suspicions:

arms

suspicions:

held

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

easily

suspicions:

off

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

floor.

suspicions:

Delicate

suspicions:

whiskers

suspicions:

mingled

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

own.

suspicions:

Those

suspicions:

green

suspicions:

fabric

suspicions:

dinosaur

suspicions:

claws

suspicions:

gripped

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

rump,

suspicions:

rocking

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

hard

suspicions:

onto

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

harder

suspicions:

dick.

suspicions:

Heavy

suspicions:

balls

suspicions:

dragged

suspicions:

across

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

tail

suspicions:

base. "Uhh! Mmm!

suspicions:

Yeah!"

"Keep

suspicions:

going!"

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

gasped

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

thick

suspicions:

canine

suspicions:

cock

suspicions:

buried

suspicions:

in her

suspicions:

slippery

suspicions:

little

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

passage.

suspicions:

Every

suspicions:

time

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

hilted

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

surge

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

fullness

suspicions:

drove

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

squeak

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

throat.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

grippy

suspicions:

texture

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

condom

suspicions:

dragged

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

out

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

tender

suspicions:

folds.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

dove

suspicions:

between

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

rub

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

clit.

suspicions:

The

suspicions:

sensitive

suspicions:

webbing

suspicions:

rolled

suspicions:

over her

suspicions:

even-more-sensitive

suspicions:

nub.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

passage

suspicions:

clenched

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

him. "Nghh!

suspicions:

Take

suspicions:

me,

suspicions:

Maxie.

suspicions:

Oh!"

With

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

roar

suspicions:

any

suspicions:

dinosaur

suspicions:

would've

suspicions:

been

suspicions:

proud

suspicions:

of,

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

gripped

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

hips

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

buried

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

phosphorescent

suspicions:

length

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her.

suspicions:

Even

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

condom,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

felt

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

swell

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

his knot,

suspicions:

getting

suspicions:

bigger

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

every

suspicions:

heartbeat.

suspicions:

He

suspicions:

growled

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

shoulder. "Hhhhrrrrrrrrh!!"

With

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

heavy

suspicions:

moan,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

gasped.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

tail

suspicions:

bucked,

suspicions:

swinging

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

hips

suspicions:

hard

suspicions:

onto

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

spurting

suspicions:

dick.

suspicions:

Head

thrown

back,

her

suspicions:

red

riding

hood

suspicions:

fell

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

flattened

ears.

suspicions:

Pleasure

suspicions:

coursed

suspicions:

through

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

body.

suspicions:

Instinct

suspicions:

caused

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

clutch

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

lover.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

hips

suspicions:

wiggled

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

his,

suspicions:

riding

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

far

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

his knot

suspicions:

allowed,

suspicions:

wringing

suspicions:

every

pleasure

suspicions:

from

her

suspicions:

stuffed-full

suspicions:

climax. "Mmm..."

For

suspicions:

long,

suspicions:

loving

suspicions:

minutes,

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

leaned

suspicions:

together

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

wall.

suspicions:

His

suspicions:

breaths

suspicions:

slowed

suspicions:

against

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

ear.

suspicions:

Tension

suspicions:

evaporated,

suspicions:

even

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

body

suspicions:

tingled

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

energy.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

couldn't

suspicions:

believe

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

they'd

suspicions:

just

suspicions:

done,

suspicions:

what

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

were

suspicions:

still

suspicions:

doing,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

felt

suspicions:

incredible.

suspicions:

Of

suspicions:

all

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

emotions

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

feeling,

suspicions:

fear

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

still

suspicions:

there,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

was

suspicions:

far

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

list.

suspicions:

Her

suspicions:

webbed

suspicions:

paws

suspicions:

stroked

suspicions:

along

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

broad

suspicions:

back,

suspicions:

feeling

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

pant.

suspicions:

Just

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

started

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

wonder

suspicions:

if

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

legs

suspicions:

would

suspicions:

give

suspicions:

out,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

felt

suspicions:

his knot

suspicions:

slip

suspicions:

free.

suspicions:

A

suspicions:

final

suspicions:

gasp

suspicions:

passed

suspicions:

between

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

struggled

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

ease

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

without

suspicions:

tripping

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

both.

The

suspicions:

faint

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

returned

suspicions:

as

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

pulled

suspicions:

free,

suspicions:

then

suspicions:

pulled

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

rubber

suspicions:

off

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

length

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

tied

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

prevent

suspicions:

spilling. "At

suspicions:

least

suspicions:

there's

suspicions:

no

suspicions:

mess

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

clean

suspicions:

up."

Her

suspicions:

panties

suspicions:

slid

suspicions:

helpfully

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

over

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

sticky

suspicions:

fur

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

mound

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

sweep

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

unexpected

suspicions:

sensation.

suspicions:

Giddy,

suspicions:

Kylie

suspicions:

giggled. "We're

suspicions:

not

suspicions:

gonna

suspicions:

use

suspicions:

it

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

light

suspicions:

our

suspicions:

way

suspicions:

home?"

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

straightened

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

panties,

suspicions:

lips

suspicions:

wet,

suspicions:

but

suspicions:

far

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

usual

suspicions:

dripping.

suspicions:

Normally,

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

thick

suspicions:

canine

suspicions:

seed

suspicions:

would

suspicions:

be

suspicions:

running

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

tail

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

point.

"I

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

feel

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

need

suspicions:

for

suspicions:

my

suspicions:

jizz

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

guide

suspicions:

us."

suspicions:

Once

suspicions:

Max

suspicions:

got

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

junk

suspicions:

sorted

suspicions:

away,

suspicions:

he

suspicions:

gave

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

quick

suspicions:

kiss

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

leaned

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

ear. "We'd

suspicions:

better

suspicions:

go."

suspicions:

He

suspicions:

placed

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

palm

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

crash

suspicions:

bar

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

popped

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

open. "I

suspicions:

don't

suspicions:

want

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

explain why

suspicions:

this

suspicions:

whole

suspicions:

place

suspicions:

smells

suspicions:

like

suspicions:

sex

suspicions:

now."

As

suspicions:

they

suspicions:

stepped

suspicions:

outside,

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

bobbed

suspicions:

around

suspicions:

him

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

bubbly

suspicions:

giggle. "Want

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

catch

suspicions:

up

suspicions:

with Shane

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

Sarah?"

"Nah,

suspicions:

let's

suspicions:

text

suspicions:

them

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

head

suspicions:

home."

suspicions:

He

suspicions:

pulled

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

close,

suspicions:

ducking

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

muzzle

suspicions:

into

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

hood

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

nibble

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

ear. "I

suspicions:

still

suspicions:

really,

suspicions:

really

suspicions:

want

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

see

suspicions:

you

suspicions:

take

suspicions:

that

suspicions:

costume

suspicions:

off."

Kylie

suspicions:

chittered

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

anticipation.

suspicions:

As

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

closed,

suspicions:

she

suspicions:

caught

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

glimpse

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

dull

suspicions:

metal

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

moonlight,

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

flash

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

familiar

suspicions:

face.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

stopped

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door,

suspicions:

leaning

suspicions:

back

suspicions:

inside

suspicions:

to

suspicions:

look

suspicions:

more

suspicions:

closely.

suspicions:

On

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

wall

suspicions:

hung

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

old

suspicions:

bronze

suspicions:

plaque

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

an

suspicions:

embossed

suspicions:

portrait

suspicions:

of

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

sea

suspicions:

otter

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

bushy

suspicions:

whiskers

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

a

suspicions:

cheery

suspicions:

smile.

Died installing an

suspicions:

We

suspicions:

honor

suspicions:

your

dedication,

suspicions:

if

not

your

methods.

Kylie

suspicions:

let

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

door

suspicions:

shut,

suspicions:

hiding

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

plaque.

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

stood

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

narrow

suspicions:

concrete

suspicions:

step,

suspicions:

mind

suspicions:

buzzing,

suspicions:

something

suspicions:

cold

suspicions:

twisting

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

chest.

"Hey,

suspicions:

something

suspicions:

wrong?"

suspicions:

Max

suspicions:

looked

suspicions:

down

suspicions:

at

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

with

suspicions:

concern

suspicions:

on

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

muzzle,

suspicions:

phosphorescent

suspicions:

condom

suspicions:

dangling

suspicions:

in

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

grasp.

"No..."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

shook

suspicions:

her

suspicions:

head. "It's

suspicions:

nothing."

suspicions:

She

suspicions:

took

suspicions:

his

suspicions:

paw

suspicions:

and

suspicions:

walked

suspicions:

from

suspicions:

the

suspicions:

alleyway.
