An extract from the story: “I wonder what Ava meant,” Valerie said, “about the maze…” “Who knows?” Kathy shrugged and refilled her plate with even more strawberries. “She is rather strange sometimes.” “Ava is not strange; she is just a little bit different. That is all,” I corrected Kathy, and pointedly I moved the bowl with strawberries away from her. She gave me a sour grimace in reply, but wisely she did not say anything. “I wonder if there is something in the middle of the maze,” Valerie pondered out loud. “Perhaps a treasure, or maybe there is a ghost protecting something?” “Utter nonsense!” I interrupted her and felt myself blush. All of my sisters were acting disturbingly embarrassing today. “Do not be ridiculous, Val!” “Or a secret!” Kathy exclaimed. “The secret of the maze!” “According to legend, if you manage to find the middle of a Celtic pagan labyrinth, you get to make a wish…” Ashley mused and his green eyes sparkled. He lowered his voice for dramatic effect, “And no matter what you wish for, they say that your wish will come true!” Product details: Category: Gay Victorian Romance and Erotica Format: Kindle eBook Length: Afternoon delight (Novelette ~13500 words) Professionally proofread and edited by: Pauline Nolet Publisher: My Secret Quill About the author: Lady T.
