The good news would be telling Ma that I was in love with the Vicar and that it was reciprocated. That, one might have expected, would have been to have seen Ma thrilling to the news that her ugly duckling of a youngest daughter was not only going to be in a relationship, but one in which her partner would be someone of whom she approved. What was not to lik...
We stared at the screen, the account was in the first person written by Emm: I remember being drugged, waking I found myself shackled securely to a St Andrew's Cross. Feeling intoxicated and euphoric, I gazed around the room, there was a small table next to the cross. Looking down at it, I saw a tall glass jar containing a clear liquid, and next to it a se...
Ekaterina and Emm stole the show that evening. There was not a woman in the room who did not either envy them or want to sleep with them; Sarah and I were in the latter category, though, truth to tell, no sleep would have been had. The reception got into full swing. There must have been three dozen people there, and even I recognised some famous faces. Sara...
24th of November, my 20th birthday, and I was stuck in a lecture at uni. Of course I wasn't going to focus. The term was drawing to a close and most if not all of our important exams were out of the way. I'm pretty sure nobody else in that lecture hall was focusing either. So I took the time to think about what I seemed to be thinking about more and more t...
I woke suddenly, and was wide awake. I normally struggle to emerge from sleep, so this level of awareness was some primal survival instinct; something was wrong. There was a crepuscular gloom, and the sun was not yet up. Through the open patio doors I could hear the Black Sea's waves breaking against the shoreline. Sarah, my wife, was still fast asleep, as...
Fun though visits to my mother-in-law now became, life was not, alas, all wine and roses, or even whining and rosy bums. There was the serious business of politics to be carried on. I know (and Lady Cecily made the same point often) that was Archie's job, but my husband was busy at the Foreign Office, where his trips abroad seemed, for some reason, to requi...
'You have done what?' Sarah seemed surprised. 'I've got a job working as Angie Sinn's PA,' I repeated. 'But darling, do you really want to be a PA? You are used the excitement of AUNTIE; won't you be bored being a PA? What is she doing anyway? I thought she was working for the CIA or some cloak and dagger thingy.' I suppose the aftermath of a second orga...
I settled myself on the sofa in Sarah's room. I was beginning to wonder why I had booked a room for myself? Thus far I had not spent either of the two nights I had been at the hotel in it. I reflected that it was as well that Anne had taken a suite, as she would need a large bed to accommodate her, Emily and my friend Emm. I wondered what they were doing? Em...
LAURA AND SHERI---FINALLY PARTNERS Laura retuned to her room at 8 AM, and found a note from Sheri inviting her to visit Nikki and Jason at 3:00 this afternoon. "I guarantee you a fun time," she promised. Laura harbored a deep lust for Nikki since they met at cheerleader orientation. "I will finally get the opportunity to devour her luscious breasts and ea...
Christine was having a tough day at work she was sitting at her desk when there was a knock on her office door. “It is open,” Christine said. The vision who entered her office still managed to take Christine breath away. Closing the door the cute pixie with the incredible smile, who still had Christine’s heart with her short layered cropped chestnut hair whi...
