Carissa didn't know how one rainy night and a stranger would change her life. She would find an adventure, a puzzle and a new life, The night was cold and rainy, with fog so thick you could barely see the road ahead. Carissa was taking things really slow maneuvering her older SUV around each curve of the two lane highway. She had spent the holidays with friends but was headed back to her empty country home. She had taken two weeks off from her job at the hospital where she worked the night shift as a trauma nurse. Carissa kept moving forward, slow and steady, with her low beams and fog lights attempting to light a path for her. Her fear was always a deer running across the road because she had seen the results of that in the emergency room enough times. Driving slow paid off as she saw something across the highway just ahead. She slowed and then stopped as she got close enough to get out and investigate. It appeared to be a body and that became more obvious when she got close enough to see it. She ran to it and checked the pulse first thing, which she found present but weak.

Hester: Very good, was short too the point , not lingering on the abuse, pity you didn’t let him step in earlier knowing the abuse was happening, but this is almost real for some women who have gone through it, just wish they could all have a princess at te end of thete tunnel

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.

Hi ,
I just read your story and honestly, I couldn’t stop! It’s really awesome. Your writing intrigued me so much that I started thinking about how cool it would be as a comic.
I’m an artist who takes commissions for comics, manga, character art (including OCs) and cover art. I’d love to see if we can turn your fantastic story into a comic, but no pressure if that’s not your thing!
If you’re up for it, shoot me a message on Discord (username - bennett_lol), and we can chat more about it. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
Cheers,
Bennett.
