Commanded (2015)
“It was minutes past midnight now, and exhaustion weighed on him. The city remained alive and busy. While he loved that about Vegas, he craved to drop into sleepy slumber. He pressed his foot against the accelerator, knowing that rest wouldn’t come without putting something else to bed first.
Once he crossed through the intersection, he pulled up in front of the charming bookstore on the corner. A sign hanging over the door read THE BOOK NOOK. At one time the bookstore had appeared run down,... but now with the fresh paint and new store windows it had been rejuvenated. He cut the engine of his truck and exited, locking the doors behind him. To his left he noted that the contractor had finished the work on the tattoo shop next to the bookstore. All of which would lead into a new casino a year from now.

The warm breeze of a beautiful Las Vegas night touched him as he approached the building’s side door.MoreLess
