Author's Note: Thanks for the comments on the first chapters of C&G. I'm happy to get the feedback, positive and negative. As usual, I write too much about characters (and maybe I put some plot in there too), but not enough about sex. So, if that's not for you, I'll politely ask you to see yourself to the door. For the rest of you, I will assume you've r...
John awoke the next morning to the soft sound of a girl singing. He recognised Faye's exquisite voice, but the song was filled with a heart-breaking sense of melancholy that almost brought a tear to his eye. Trying not to disturb Tashana and Irillith, he untangled himself from the sisters and sat upright so he could look at Faye. She was sitting in the chair...
Jade grinned in delight at John and the girls, appearing as an exact replica of their beautiful Chief Engineer, right down to the golden coronas around her pupils. Dana leaned closer, open-mouthed with shock as she was faced with her own double staring right back at her. "Oh wow! Do I really look like that?!" Dana marvelled, darting around on the bed to loo...
Lil regretted having agreed to check on Ron almost as soon as the words left her mouth, but she couldn't think of a good reason to back out of it, short of telling his mom she'd seen him masturbating in the store dressing room, and of course, that wasn't an option. Her guilt of having succumbed to the temptation of peeping on the boy had descended upon her a...
Edraele leaned into her lover's warm embrace and let out a contented sigh. "Oh, I really needed this... I felt awful after that meeting with Gaenna." Luna held the Maliri Queen close, making her feel safe and protected. "You're not that person any more, Edraele." "I know... but revisiting those horrible memories is always disturbing. It wasn't me that did...
Eighteen matriarchs sat around the long table in the royal meeting room on Genthalas, the gathered Maliri speaking quietly to one another as they awaited their hostess, the atmosphere tense. When Queen Edraele swept into the room, all conversation ceased, the matriarchs watching her approach the table. "My sincere apologies for keeping you waiting," Edraele...
John sprawled on the bed, his chest heaving as he panted to get his breath back. He gazed wide-eyed at the stars through the clear-crystal dome, admiring the beautiful sweep of bright starlight that shone down on the trio in the Observatory. The Invictus was in high orbit around New Eden in the Procyon system, located right in the heart of the Core Worlds, s...
The door to Sarinia Baelora's quarters slid open and Myrdina burst into the room. "You're leaving?!" she screeched, bristling with anger. "Welcome, dear sister," the eldest daughter of House Baelora said dryly, turning to glance through her bedroom's open door into the lounge. "Please accept my apologies for not inviting you in, I was preoccupied and must h...
*The thralls are all leaving...* Jade told Alyssa, craning her draconic head out of the shattered cockpit and sweeping her sharp-eyed gaze across the hangar. Alyssa swung out of the breached canopy and crouched on the Raptor's roof. *Quick, Dana... the runes!* *Okay...* the redhead agreed, her telepathic voice aching with grief. As much as Alyssa felt the...
