LAKE VIEW
Gagged and tightly bound, I can see my final resting place, Deep Lake. I notice the rocks he's neatly stacked and will use to keep me weighted. Will the truth ever surface? Will anyone question my disappearance or just go about their lives as they are now, ignorant of the evil in their midst?
My husband hums as he works, and then smiles. "Hey beautiful, I warned you, told you I'd provide all you needed. A job, I don't think so, it's just an excuse to flirt and cheat. Don't worry; this is my favorite fishing spot. I'll visit often."
100 words

I love reading your flash fiction! They're always a touch humorous :)
Also, is this exactly 100 words? Then that's a drabble! I dig writing them because it's hard getting exactly 100.
Yes, exactly 100 words, I always try for the exact, don't always achieve it but always try. Thanks Madilyn, good to know.
That he might Pat, bad boy. I'm sure he'll consider it a lucky day - to find she's still there!
How chilling! Great story Yolanda! I can only imagine how she must be feeling.
Nicely sinister! Great job.
Ouch.. just maybe he slips and hit his head on one of those rock.. Great story,
Hi human, Yolanda,
I got that sinking feeling with your pawst! The very depths of "flash fiction" in this one.
I'm getting ready for Howloween! Arf and owwwwww!!!!
Pawsitive wishes and doggy kisses,
Penny xx
Ooh, sinister as Nick said. Nice job, husband. Lovely of him to visit...:-(
Hi Joy, I know what you mean.
Thanks Nick, it is isn't it.
If only! Thanks brudberg.
Hi Penny, tell Gary hello too. Yes, a very sinking feeling here.
Thanks for the doggy kisses!
Hey Denise, he is thoughtful isn't he? :)
Nice take on the prompt
Dear Yolanda Renee,
There's a husband who takes control to the next level. Well done.
Shalom,
Rochelle
He sounds a bit controlling. Not to mention a murderous psycho :-)
Yikes! Such a beautiful photo and yet such an unnerving little story. Good job! :)
Scary. Love it!
Hateful, jealous man. May he trip getting out of his boat and slam his head against the cairn!
I don't know how you think of these stories.
Very sinister. I hope she comes back and haunts him when he 'visits'.
Such a thoughtful husband. :0 I hope he gets his.
