Under the flickering candlelight, she drew pure silver thread through her fingers, creating intricate knots. Each knot leading to the next, a web of silver and when it was done, she attached silver fringe along the edge. She spread the silver masterpiece gently across the table she had been working at; a tablecloth fit for a king, her smile was incandescent as she considered her work.
The full moon was radiant tonight, lighting the room. The wolf song surrounded her cabin as she waited by the open door with her net of silver, fit for king or an alpha wolf.

What a wickedly enjoyable Flash in the Pan,
lucky it wasn’t a Werewolf at the door as silver
is not too healthy for them 😦
Have a super Tuesday with hugs aplenty 🙂

Thank you my friend, I am so glad you enjoyed. To catch a werewolf though, silver is just the thing!
Yes I hadn’t realised that you were just thinking of catching one 🙂 How naughty of you Val 😉 Just watch out for his big… Hey his big claws I was going to say, well I just did so there 😉 lmao
Have a fun afternoon
now my great friend 🙂

What beautiful wording – I really like this one!
Thank you Christy, I was inspired. I am glad it came through.
Why should she be afraid when she has the perfect trap. Awesome, as always, Valentine. I like that she is so calm and confident. I bet this isn’t her first time. (giggles)
I think Tess you would win that bet! Seems she knew perfectly how to cast that net. 😉
Why should she be afraid when she’s made a silver trap. Awesome, as always, Valentine. Most suitable for the prey. I like how calm and confident she is.
Oh, my! I just love when these Flash stories show up in my in-box. They are the perfect length for this busy working mom, and yet, they are so filling with everything a great novel has to offer. Thanks, Val, and this one brought shivers and chills of the best kind up my spine. 🙂 Hooooooowwwwwlllll! XOXO
I am so glad you enjoy these, you are right they are quick and fun. Glad especially this one brought a chill, it was intended too.
😉
Loving the start of this fairytale
🙂
But the end my friend, didn’t the end just grab you?
But I wanted to read more!
Ah, well that is the purity of Flash, it leaves us all panting for a little bit more.
Someone will be having a nice little tidbit for dinner tonight!
Love this flash, Val. Great surprise ending!
xx
Thanks Deb, seems you and I both are marching to the beat of different drummers in this bistro.
I think he is going to make a terrific guest of honor. Such a beautiful snare she has created.
Terrific flash.

I think he will be terribly upset he is caught unsuspecting by a female with a simple silver net, but then we are a smart gender 😉
when the catch is this royal the trap should be too 😉
what a story, loved it 🙂
I agree, we should always use a trap equal to our prey! Glad you enjoyed this one!
Good news I was wondering for whom was she preparing. Bad news is the “guest” was a surprise. In other words, well done!
Thank you Frank. Me thinks there are plans afoot for which her guest may be unaware!
I sense a trap! Intriguing story, Val. I especially loved the first sentence. Nice.
Thank you Monica, a trap you say? Sneaky isn’t she.
What a catch this is going to be – time to feast – or be the feast (naughty smile)
That old moon does bring it out doesn’t it?
My apologies for the typo errors..
The imagery is beautiful yet they say a picture is worth a thousand words your. story begs ftp differ .
This Flash stories do force economy. 😉
Very good Val. I like this one. I have no questions for you this week,Tom
I am glad there was no mystery in this one Tom.
Oh what’s tangled web we weave …
Sorry. Somebody had to say it!
I can always count on you Elyse.
Obviously she was not frightened of the alpha wolf
No fear in her at all.
