working hard on updating!

thanks!

Thank you so much for reviewing! The Monday teasers are up on the Blog. (kitsushel.blogspot.com) Sorry these went out a few days late, but I was busy working on EPOV to go hand-in-hand with the next chapter, so I hope I'm forgiven. The next chapter should be up in a few hours and the Outtake sometime this weekend. ;-)

I'm so sad to see Parachute ending soon. It's been my baby for the past six months and I'm so thankful and grateful to each one onf you who has walked this journey with me! I'm not a big fan of angst or unnecessary drama, so our loose ends are starting to become tied up with Chapter 32. I only anticipate another 6 or so chapters before we're all finished. *sad face*

Parachute ended up winning the 3 Original Character Awards that it was up for, so much love and adoration to everyone who voted! Voting for The Avant Garde Awards ends on the 26th.

Victoria flew at Bella, pushing her forward as the other girl struggled.

"Stop it!" Victoria whispered. "Unless you want to fucking die, then keep right on fighting me."

Bella ceased to move and felt Victoria's hands pulling at the knot in the rope around her wrists. "Why are you helping me?" she asked in confusion.

"I may be a shitty mother, but I'm not a killer, Bella. We've got to get out of here. He's come unhinged."

"Really, Vicki? Is that what you think of me?" James voice echoed throughout the room.

Victoria froze just as the knot slipped away and Bella felt her hands come loose. She fought the fire in her shoulders and kept her hands together so that James wouldn't realize that she was free. Victoria's ice blue eyes were large with fear as she turned to face her lover.

Seeing a moment of opportunity, Bella launched herself off the chair and out of the room. Knowing that there was no place for her to run and probably nowhere that she could hide where he wouldn't find her, she set off to find the next best thing - a weapon. Sliding into a large stainless steel kitchen, she found just that in the form of a rack of pots and pans hanging above an island in the center of the room. She quickly pulled down a large and heavy frying pan and hefted it over her shoulder, moving towards the door at the opposite end of the room. As she eased it open, she found herself facing a flight of stairs leading upwards. Just as she placed one foot on the bottom stair, she heard James's voice coming closer. 

"Isabellllllla," he sang out. "Come out, come out, wherever you are."
