It was Christmas Eve, nearly midnight when the couple settled into their bed for the night. They had tucked in the grandchildren with kisses and promises of presents tomorrow. Their excited bodies refused sleep, until grandma sang softly to them and watched them drift to sleep. There was a game of pool set up for the brothers and brothers-in-law, the four of...
I was going through some hard times recently. My job was cut during the recession and I was trying to get by on the meager unemployment check I received. It didn't help that I had a bit of a gambling problem. I was badly in debt but pretty much judgment proof so I didn't worry too much about it. Sometimes I would take my weekly check to the casino on the edg...
First of all, Nathan King ruined my life. Let's start with that. I was in business school, like the good little WASP that I was. I was going to be...I don't even know. I was going to wear the good suits, though, send my interns out for my coffee and send them scattering with a look if they got my order wrong (venti non-fat iced chai tea latte, they'd murmu...
This work contains spoilers for "X-Men: First Class". All characters are the property of Marvel. This is my first time submitting to Literotica, so I'd greatly appreciate feedback, from grammar/spelling to structure/plot. I hope you enjoy this! ***** I nervously hold the gun to Erik's temple.

Gabe sat in his office, finishing up his work for the day. He had been at Bartley, Fitch and Meade for over two months and though he loved the work, Gabe felt that it was sometimes too much for him. He was going over the few accounts they had given him to review when his supervisor knocked on his open door. He looked up and smiled. "Hey, Paula." "Hey Gabe....
“For the last time, Brandon, he’s alright.” “I still think you should check him again.” Keith slipped his stethoscope back in his pocket. “What, you think I missed something the first four times I checked him?” Nate gave them a sleepy look from his nest of pillows. “Lay off, Bran. I’m fine. Blood thinners give you the shakes sometimes, that’s all.” “You’...
Douglas Carver looked up from his desk as Dillon came barreling into the oak-paneled office first thing the next morning. His father looked almost frightened by the sheer rage coursing through Dillon’s veins, but Dillon could have cared less. It was time he and his dad had a little chat. It didn’t take Doug long to recover from his initial surprise. “Good m...
Hello Everyone! I know it has been several months since my last posting and I sincerely apologize for the wait. I have heard from several of you over that time and I wanted to explain why I've been away for so long. I had some rather hard times suddenly descend on me all at once near the middle of August and I feel secure enough now to explain some of that...
Chapter One Like the men who made suicide is in my genes. The temptation was too great for my great-grandfather, my grandfather, and my father, having lured all three to the other side. Theories abound as to why. No one knows for sure. I think it's because there was too much dissonance between who they really were and who they pretended to be. We all prete...
My name is Nathaniel Baxter. Nathan, I go by. I'm 18 years old and in my first semester at the local community college. I have a twin sister, Nicole. Nicole is 15 minutes older than me, and she definitely plays up the big sister role. I was going to a party with Nicole and her boyfriend, Eric.
