Whenever Jamie entered a room it seemed to light up. Her smile was so radiant it seemed to shine without reflection. At six foot she was statuesque, her long legs and well-rounded figure made her stand out where ever she went. I was glad to have her as a friend, I could only hope that someday it would be more. "We have an invitation to a Halloween Party." s...
The last thing Captain Chasity Bates remembered was transiting out of slipstream above Teldura before something rocked the ship harshly. Something hard hit her head and she hit the deck, and intermittently she recalled being dragged and carried to one of the escape pods and then the rush of being shot clear of the Amantia before it exploded. When she came t...
The Podium 2 – Gotta Pay to Play By Baron Cumhausen Podium 1 Background There's a small auditorium at the small community college I'm attending this summer where, in the late afternoon, I join several other students on Tuesdays for a public speaking workshop. It's nothing formal, no teachers or TAs. It's just a half dozen or so of us guys who decided to...
I spent my first year and a half working in the outfit working as an enforcer in Tony T's loan sharking operation. Then one cold, windy, day in December Tony T called me down to his office and gave me my first big solo assignment. Tony handed me a photograph of a thin, pale, Asian man in his mid-fifties who had an angular face and slick backed black hair th...

Thank you so much for sticking with us on this winding journey. For anyone new to this series, I strongly suggest you read them in sequence. They probably don't really work individually or out of chronological order. This is a story-driven series. It does have hot sex (well, at least I hope you think it's hot), but is more about building the larger narrat...
I step through the portal with the demon, my arm wrapped around my chest and my body cold. A cold black wing wrapped around my body, shielding me from anyone's view. There were demons everywhere, they gathered around and clamored for a glimpse of me. The demon shielding me sharply ordered them to bow in the presence of their new queen. They fell to their kne...
Elena stood on tiptoes to peer over the top of the immaculate glass display case. She inhaled the heady aroma of freshly baked bread with an almost lusty appreciation. This time of day was a genuine treat. Not only was she able to get crusty yet impossibly light baguettes still hot from the oven, she was allowed to stroll about a city she'd only dreamed of b...
Elena had been enjoying sunbathing in the tall grassy field, but she finally could no longer ignore the insistent buzzing of a large bee that was just out of her field of vision. It was practically in her ear, but she still couldn't see it. Waving a lazy hand around, she hoped that the insect would be warded away - but no dice. It just kept coming back at he...
Hi there. We're moving the story forward in Chapter 13, and I am a little sorry (okay, not sorry) to say that this one is more about propelling the drama. Not much hot sex in this chapter. I'll make it up to you very soon. And then some. I promise. But if you have been wondering where these characters have been taking us, there are many important revelat...
