*This excerpt is the tail end of the first chapter from Legends of Deceit*
Our ranch style house was nestled in the center of a grove of trees at the end of the street, away from the other houses due to my father purchasing two lots on either side. We liked our privacy, and my father loved his workshop on the south side of the house. I was glad to be home, looking forward to sleeping in my own bed. I noticed all the lights were off, including the one on the porch. Mom always left it on when I was out after dark. How odd. Maybe they went to a movie I guessed as I pulled into the driveway. I turned the headlights off and cut the engine.
Silence.
The air was even still.
My stomach dropped.
Something wasn’t right. I could feel it in my gut. I stepped out of the car. A thick, earthy concrete scent engulfed me—a sign of rainfall. As I approached the front door, I reached in my pocket for the pepper spray, pulled it out, and opened the front door. “Mom. Dad. I’m home.” The whole house was dark. I pulled my cell from my pocket and turned the flashlight app on so I could see. There was a lingering burning smell like burnt plastic. I crossed the short hallway, the bright beam from my cell pointed straight ahead, brushing over the family pictures on the wall. I stepped into the kitchen that branched off to the left and flipped the switch on and off several times.
Nothing.
What the . . . ?
“Mom, are you home?” I called, moving my phone in front of me so I could see. Ick. There must have been a dozen dead flies on the tiled floor, reminding me of the ones in the abandoned farmhouse. I stepped around the island in the center of the room. The toe of my shoe caught something. I tripped but grabbed the edge of the counter while jerking my cell down, illuminating the floor. I screamed and jumped back. In an instant, my throat tightened and the tears flowed. “Noooo!” I quickly backed across the room and collapsed to the floor. My heart raced and broke all at the same time. With shaking fingers I dialed 9-1-1. Several sobs escaped my lips.
“Nine-one-one. Can I help you?”
My shaky fingers fluttered to my lips, the tips pressing on them.
“Can I help you?”
“I’m Haven Evergreen and . . . and . . .”
“It’s okay. Take your time.”
My heart split in half, and I bawled. “I . . . I . . . I just came home from Vegas and f-f-f-found my mom in the kitchen . . . on the floor . . . without her head.”

Thank you Marcia for creating excerpt week. I’m excited to read everyone’s creative work. 🙂
Excellent excerpt, Rebekkah! Yikes! And Eeeeeewww, too. And then maybe Awwww, poor Haven! Super intriguing, and I’m heading over to Amazon tonight! Thanks so much for taking part, Rebekkah, and you are officially the first to get the ball rolling this time around. Except for me, but I don’t count, because I’ll probably put up a little something everyday, unless it gets far too hectic. So, yay, you! Tweeting and sharing all over!

Thanks so much, Rebekkah. I always enjoy #ExcerptWeek, which I do a few times a year. This is shaping up to be the best one, yet! 🙂 Thanks for taking part. Without you guys, it would just be me, force-feeding everybody my own work for a week. That wouldn’t be much fun at all! 😀

Oh my goodness, Rebekkah. The first horror movie I watched as a young girl the wife wakes up in bed and finds her husband’s severed head lying next to her. I have never forgotten that scene and your first chapter reminded me of this. Great extract!
