*** The first chapter is a little more drawn out to paint the story line. The following chapters will have more action and less dialogue. *** CHAPTER 1 It is a fine, sunny day in the month of September as I sat at my usual table waiting for an old school friend of mine. He should be arriving soon to join me for lunch here at the Hail Ale in Westminster Cit...
I'd been watching him for a week. He was the new boy in town, freshly exported from Laconia, screwing his face up in thought at assembly as he tried to understand Theran-accented Greek. Leonidas sent him with the highest recommendations, and it was easy to see why; though trim, he could put a sword halfway through a shield with one overhead swing, and thou...
I had been going to Gabe and Steve's Gym for a couple of months, and I was quite pleased with the results. I could tell that Gabe and Steve were pleased too, as they'd both been giving me the eye when I was in the shower. I didn't mind all that much; it was a free world and looks didn't cost me anything—or so I thought at the time. I knew that Gabe and Steve...
I woke up with a start. Thanks God, it was just a dream! Just a dream... Just an harmless dream, it's not like tomorrow I will meet that gorgeous Apollo who hopefully will "claim me". Not that I want that! Ok, I admit it, I like the idea of someone taking me, "claiming me", and I want someone to fuck me senseless, hell, spank me, tie me, I don't care as long...
"Someone better tell me what the fuck is going on." Vanessa's body tensed in anger. "There isn't time for explanations." Rio shook his head. "I wish there was..." "You'll be wishing alright, for a pair of new legs if you don't start talking, fast." Vanessa took a step towards the mysterious man in front of them. "The Trinity wasn't the only prophecy that...
"I can't believe you're leaving man" I said to Leo as we walked to his house "if you leave I'm going to be left here with Jordan!" "Jo is your best friend, your better friends with him than you are with me." Leo replied. "Well yeah" I admitted "but he doesn't cook, and I've had more free meals at your house than a homeless shelter, and I know I work at a h...
4 Swan Point Cemetery was at the north end of Blackstone Boulevard, a very ritzy section of Providence. H.P. Lovecraft is buried in a smaller cemetery just a little further to the north, a stone's throw over the wall in Swan Point. Nettie brought us toward the family plot but had to stop a couple of small paths away. I could see the crane that was normally...
"Is there someplace nearby for breakfast?" "Yes even at one in the afternoon, sweetie," the clerk answered with a smile. "They'll fix you up in the bar downstairs. They'll fix you up for all sorts of things down there. I'd say you look like you didn't get a lick of sleep last night, but I'll bet you always look drop-dead gorgeous." Nathan reddened up some...
Ethan My life hasn't been easy. I've always been afraid. Of everything. Afraid to take a risk. Afraid of relationships and of failure. And God did I fail. I admit it. I didn't fail to save those people. Yet. I remembered my dad told me "real men don't cry". Maybe I'm not a real man after all. Have you ever felt so empty, so broken that no matter if you wa...
