TALKING-TALBOT-Chapter-02

by webnovelverse — The trainload of horses had been delivered and paid for, and Chester Talbot was preparing to return to his ranch, anxious to be on his way. He had remained in Hoboken all the time; hadn't crossed the river to the big city. If there was any bitterness in his feeling for his old home, it didn't show in his conduct. He had stood on the end of the wharf, while the horses were being loaded on the steamer, studying the wonderful sky line across the river with interest and admiration. He had not wavered for…

TALKING-TALBOT-Chapter-01

by webnovelverse — Oh, how cruel! Make him stop! Somebody make him stop!" A lot of several hundred horses was being loaded on a train at a siding in Texas, destined for the British troops in France. It was a scene of excitement, noise, and bustle; frightened horses plunging, biting, kicking, squealing; men shouting and swearing. A party of men and women, betrayed by their dress as strangers, were sitting their horses, grouped together, watching the proceedings with a lively interest. The horses were all broken, but…

I-Won-Over-My-Yandere-Boss-Chapter-01

by webnovelverse — Late one night, my craving for burgers hit me hard, and I reached for my phone, ready to order delivery. But to my shock, I watched as my WaitFood app’s icon literally swallowed up the neighboring MunchEase icon in one big digital gulp. Is the delivery industry getting this cutthroat now? I stared at the yellow icon for ages, but it looked totally normal, as if nothing out of the ordinary had just occurred. Was it all my imagination? Still, there was no denying I was down one delivery…

Alias-the-Blackbird-Chapter-11

by webnovelverse — VOICES came from the forested slopes, booming across the night. Here, there, on every side of the narrow glade men shouted, answering one another. "Hi, Cedar! Hi, Cedar! Which way'd he go?" Electric torches began to flash. A posse of twenty or more police officers, after beating for hours through the forest in a tightening circle, had converged on the Blackbird, had hemmed him in at last. From the far end of the glade into which he had disappeared, swift as a wolf on the track of the Blackbird,…

Alias-the-Blackbird-Chapter-10

by webnovelverse — THE BLACKBIRD rushed him at the door. He reeled, and caught up a chair, swinging it above his head. It crashed in full flight against the lintel, the Blackbird cowering and ducking aside, deftly. "Come on! Come on!" shouted Hammer. "I'm here! You see me! Come on and fight it like a man!" The Blackbird had disappeared around a corner of the doorway, quick and sly. Hammer picked up a pine bench, facing the entrance savagely. He lurched a step forward. There was no pain in his shoulder now. All his…

Alias-the-Blackbird-Chapter-09

by webnovelverse — FACE down on moist earth Hammer lay. He heard the Blackbird swinging over in that tight circle, wings 45° to the pond surface, riding the inside rim of an invisible air cone. The quiet engine droned with the steadiness of a bumblebee and scarcely louder, never varying its soporific note. It was buzz-btizz-buzz—then br-rup! as the black plane came around in its orbit, and buzz-buzz again, circling away. Hammer lay quiet under the withered, crispy leaves of an oak scrub, between a cleft formed by two…

Alias-the-Blackbird-Chapter-08

by webnovelverse — IT HAPPENED with a speed approaching that of lightning. Time moves swiftly in the air. It is no place to float and cogitate. The black ship shot up toward his bow. He could not climb away. He hauled her nose high, but she would not take the air. She rolled and toppled over to one side, like a terror-stiffened horse hearing a rattler’s klir underfoot. The blackbird zoomed with streaking wings. It leaped like a rocket. Level, its black wings swept by the gray boat at three hundred feet a second.…

Alias-the-Blackbird-Chapter-07

by webnovelverse — CEDAR spun the propeller of the HS boat, with a sharp snap, and a quick jump away, as Hammer directed him. The loud engine yelled, the propeller blast tore up the surface of the lake. Cedar scrambled to shore and pushed the boat off, swinging it bow outward by one wing. Over the furrowing water it fled into the wind, while Cedar stood watching it a little while, saturated by the driven water of the propeller’s wake. He turned and left the shore, as he saw the boat leap off. He climbed up the slope to…

Alias-the-Blackbird-Chapter-06

by webnovelverse — STABLING his white mule on the shore of Bitter Lake, Cedar heard a plane droning over the hills. He sought cover on the shore and watched it narrowly, being by no means sure that it was not the Blackbird. A gray seaplane, smaller by half than the Beetle, was sailing down from the east into the valley that cupped the lake. It came, turning into the wind, and settled its tail in the water. Its bow swung round; it churned toward the farther shore and beached in the shallows below Cedar's cabin. When its…
