As I lay there on the bunk, the world a distant thing, I felt the sting of tears in my eyes as I stared at the wall beside me. Sometimes, when it was quiet, like now, and dark, I could still see it before me: the court room, the judge with his wig staring down at me with hatred in his eyes, the guards glaring at me and placing a hand near their batons, the...
The best hunting for lions in the Kingdom of Urartu was in the south, near the border with Assyria. This area was not the safest place to be in those years of Assyrian expansion into the region between the Caspian and Black seas, but it was where the lions were. So, when the prince of Urartu took his hunting party from the capital at Tushpa, on the Nairi Sea...
The Seelie and UnSeelie courts of the fairy world have always been places of intrigue and deceit for those of pure Sidhe blood. They call me a half-breed, so for me the courts are a place of contempt and treachery. The contempt is because I am half human. The treachery is because I am the twin brother of a pure Sidhe blood sister. We are the children of the...
"I'll contact you tomorrow morning," Marauder said whipping off his cape as he held the phone. "They've already acquired three of the ingredients we're convinced is some sort of dirty bomb, we're just trying to figure out who is calling for the supplies," the police chief said over the phone. "I've made contact with some informants and should have the info...
This is part two of my imaginings of what a first-time experience might be like. Hope you enjoy. ***** The weight of your body on mine draws my attention momentarily to the fact that my breathing has yet to return to normal. But before I can give it much more thought, you begin to move your hips forward and back, then to the side. Doing so causes a rush of...
Having the afternoon free gave me some wide-awake time to consider the weekend's experiences. There had been plenty of excitement; in fact exciting probably wasn't a strong enough word in some cases. The thrill of Dili's hairy Indian body and his masculinity as he had taken my anal virginity. The depravity of licking arses, including two big black chubs and...
"I'll get it! I'll get it!" Four year-old Lola called as she raced towards the ringing phone. "No! I'll get it. I'll get it!" Lilly contradicted, her little legs working as fast as they could to catch up to her twin. "Girls. Please. Settle down! Jon, can you get the phone?" Sarah begged, her hands sticky with the dough she was kneading. "Sure." Jonatha...
I'd been sitting reading, with the lights out and just a lamp on in the sunroom at the rear of the house. Nero heard you first, lifting his head and then going to the back door and looking about, alert. There was a full moon, and I couldn't see anything in the backyard. But I knew there was someone there, outside in the garden or the neighbor's garden. Nero...
Tate eyed the town warily. He had never seen so many people in one place before and the sight of them all made him uneasy. His father's keep had been small and sparse. The occupying village could not have housed more than a few hundred people and they rarely all conjugated in the same space. He eased a little further back behind Lukas, annoyed at himself fo...
Gus finally had his fly rod set up the way he wanted and made is his way down to the stream. Aaron had continued fishing upstream and was now out of Gus' view, obstructed by the dense forest the stream cut through. It took Gus a few tries before he placed one of his new flies exactly where he wanted it, this was the first time this year he'd rigged up his fl...
