While hiking along a river, the quite of the forest is broken by the thunderous falling of water. I move the undergrowth aside and find a pool of water formed by the fall of the river as it cascades down a rock cliff. The setting sun creates a rainbow of color in the mist as it drifts in the breeze. The day is warm; the sky free of clouds and the serenity of...
"Tia Sophia sends for you. She needs you. She is dying." Antoinette "Toni" Rodriguez stood in the doorway, her face frozen in shock and surprise as the strangely-dressed man with a heavy accent delivered his message. She was not surprised by the message; she had heard it many times before in her dreams. She was not shocked by the messenger himself, despite...
--- The Blood Pact, Chapter 35 --- The ethereal howls of the Dark God's laughter over its victory continued to fill my brain. I slumped down against the steps with legs askew and shoulders bent. With the continued protection his Dark God, the king was invincible. The Transformation Wand, the one weapon I'd had to use, was destroyed. I'd failed to avenge...
Tom had been the minister at this church for about four years. Today he sat at his desk in his study daydreaming, or rather fantasizing. He had his pants unzipped with hard cock out and his hand slowly stroking it. Sitting with his chair pulled up and his legs under his desk, no one could see what he was doing. This wasn't unusual for Tom; he had a very high...
I folded my vestment carefully and placed it in the drawer where I kept all the other tools of my profession. I took one last look. I would not need anything in this drawer ever again. I had finally made up my mind. I was choosing another path that called out to me night and day. It would mean damnation for me but I really did not care. I cursed the gods an...

I am old now. I spend most of my time in my chair thinking back of my good life. My lovely wife Karin just came and sat by my side and started talking about the time when we were newly wed and what a great sex life we have had. Nowadays it happens only occasionally that we both are in the mood and ready for action. But when it happens we have a great time....

The monk arrived at the monastery just before dusk, as the chill mountain winds began to awake. Freed from the setting sun's embrace, their fingers poked and prodded at the layers of wool that covered humanity's frailty. A cold place. A dangerous place for the unprepared. Or the unwilling. For the monk, though, it was home. Frost had accumulated on his beard...
Nestled in the far back corner of a roadside tavern called the Gelded Gryphon, Zerafina opened the battered tome, the aged yellow page crinkling between her fingers. She had taken the steel banded tome after her former master, a warlock of no small skill, had perished in battle defending his tower from a nearby baron. It seemed that all of the dark magic in...
