The Cotillion Chapter 1 The biggest event of my young adult life was in a couple of days. This soiree was the most important step into adulthood for me. The cotillion was a little known party that attracted the best, the brightest, the most beautiful, the richest, and was a fantasy for me, and so many others for so long. The cotillion was a semi-secret g...
Steve Nolan walked briskly into the room, conscious of the lesser gravity, careful to walk easy so as to avoid the tendency to bounce with each step. He didn't stop or greet anyone; he strode straight to the podium. A table sat next to the podium and he opened his phone, setting it on the table, aimed at the wall behind him. The wall was transformed into a v...
'What's the matter, Margaret,' I said, the absence of cooking smells and the sober skirt and blouse evidence that something had upset her equilibrium. I am not such an unreconstructed sexist as to necessarily expect to come home to a cooked dinner, and my wife dressed to thrill, but I had been married long enough to know when Margaret was agitated. She was...
Rhonda Miller really didn't like dating—but what was the option? Staying at home and being lonely; having an affair with a married man; or throwing herself at any presentable male, of whatever age, just to get some relief from certain compelling physical urges. No thanks! It's true that, when you're a forty-eight-year-old woman, even one who is reasonably...
Dee Fisher smiled wryly at her reflection in the mirror as she stood scrutinising her appearance in the staff room mirror. Her night shift had been gruelling, a twelve hour stint in St Luke's A&E, and while there were no gunshot wounds or stabbings to care for in such a small city's local hospital, there had been no shortage of alcoholics, drunken men fighti...
David stood before the receptionist at the outpost near the colony. He was silent while she read his letter of acceptance and studied his file. After a few moments she looked up at him and asked, "How long have you been taking the supplements we recommended?" "Um, three weeks," he answered in a shaky voice. He had been looking forward to this day for over a...
Max Dexler sat on the edge of his desk idly leafing through a collection of CV's. "Is this the lot Sue?" "Yes Dad" said Sue returning with two coffees. "They're a pretty sorry bunch, but there is one you might like." "And her name is?" "Grace Halifax Dad. The least qualified but weirdly the most appropriate." "Grace, Grace, Grace, ha here she is" said Ma...
Kumar returned to April's room in a matter of minutes, having quickly thrown on a polo shirt and Dockers over his underwear. Slipping on a pair of casual shoes, he returned to find April still alone: her stepmother was still out shopping, apparently. But it was only minutes later that the door to the room was opened with a key and a woman, burdened with bo...
After receiving a cloned body I immigrated 127 Light Years from Earth to Free Skyes. Unfortunately I had to work and pay for that cloned body and I had very few skills a high tech society could use. So it was either I become an Unskilled Labourer or a Sex Slave. Well, I guess Human Recourses had me figured out. All those years in BDSM chat-rooms and websites...
"Finish what you started. Fucking defile me" - from Daniella Bound * Daniella's pulse raced. Her discomfort was real, but it was countered by a sense of wild excitement. She could have freed herself by a single sharp tug of her wrists but she did not want to. Not for an instant. Never in her life had she felt like this. She was irked that he had left her...
