Part One Closing the Deal My company, the Thoman Group, did well this year. Up 38% year over year in revenue with a jump of 10% in profit over the same period. Perhaps more importantly, however, we bested our closest rivals, Simi Corp. We did that by taking their largest and best client away from them. I can honestly say that I can wholly claim the cre...
I laid there crumpled in the corner, abused and feeling unwanted. I no longer want to live, it hurts to breath, when I walk my body spams in pain, and when someone raises their hand I tremble. My body has become used to the my father's abusive terms. I have a system for it now, it's called sit there, take the pain, do not speak up, and the hits end sooner. T...
Porter's locker is next to mine. He's that guy nobody really likes because he's a complete douchebag. However, since he isn't into dumb shit like Dungeons and Dragons and he's rich, he's never quite at the bottom of the social tier. We have three classes together but I don't talk to him. I think he's friends with Crispin. "I saw you," he says one day. "Oh...
"I'm sorry, my wife has delivered an ultimatum. Family only for Christmas. She apparently has a major announcement to make. I'll go up by plane. Emmet can drive you up in the Jag on the 27th and then bring us both back down after New Year's. I won't be able to stay at Brambleton long then, though. The winter is a busy season from me in Philadelphia. I hope y...
Jimmy and Ted "Ted," I said, calling up to the black chauffeur. "Find a private spot and pull over and come back here." I could feel Jimmy flinch, but I also could feel him willing himself to control his breath and his fear. Ted pulled over quickly and the black bull muscled his way into the backseat. I told him to strip, which he did on the spot, and then...
++++++++++++++++++++ I've written a lot of stories about a variety of fantasies and things I wish had happened. Every now-and-then something actually does happen that seems to come out of nowhere. The incident in this tale is true, though embellished a little for better reading. The story is short and quick, just like the actual event. Sometimes the memory...
Pete was angry. More angry than usual. His car broke down and he was stuck with taking the transit across town to attend classes at his collage of the performing arts. He didn't even know why he attended, he hated it. But then again, he hated everything. He hopped on the bus and headed to the back, sitting in an empty seat that was torn and written all ov...
This is a short chapter, giving a little look back into the past, and more of a description of the guys. More to come soon! Chapter four: Old times That night I was laying in my bed, it was about 5 am and I knew I wasn't going to sleep anytime soon. I kept imagining Luke's face; it was haunting me even with my eyes open. He was so strong, his face artistic...
All Characters are over the age of 18. This is my first time submitting a story, and I hope you like it. Constructive criticism is always welcome. This is a slow love story, so if you are looking for something fast and gritty, this is not for you. Everyone else- I hope you enjoy ~Cassie * Lying here, I thought there was nothing I wanted more in the world...
"What's on your mind today Michael? You seem a troubled." Doctor Teodore asked his patient. Michael started seeing doctor Teodore for five years now. With all the stress of work and being a single parent to his only son, he felt he should start seeing a therapist. "It's my son, Jake. He's been acting... Unusual." "Unusual how?" "It started not long after...
