The Insomniac
Amber Rayne sits on her bed looking outside her window at the stars twinkling in the midnight sky. She's having another restless night of sleeplessness. Her mind is spinning thoughts a mile a minute.

Stephen flexed his shoulders, anticipating Parker’s retaliation.Parker cracked his neck, drew in a breath, and smiled a predatory grin at his adversary, “I dare you to spend the night at the Demon House.” Silence fell among the group in a short gasp as eyes turned from the two bickering children to the decaying manor standing atop the hill.The house had been around longer than the small town itse...
