It was my senior year in High School. Things were looking good. I was going to be on the honor role. College was a surety! All is well. Both my parents worked as reporters for a nationwide newspaper. My dad came home in November with his big break. A sixth month Africa on-site story about Witchdoctors and their "supposed" cures. The newspaper offered the tr...
Vampire Princess Nyssa Damaskinos looked at the fallen figure of her father, Vampire Overlord Eli Damaskinos, and then looked at her wayward brother, Jared Nomak, first of the race of Neo-Vampires known as the Reapers. Sighing, the tall, raven-haired and golden-skinned, gorgeously curvy and leather-clad young female Vampire bared her neck to her monstrous ha...
A Cheated Woman's Fury I sat at the table with both of my hands around my drink. I was absently turning the glass as I tried to control my anger. I was waiting to meet with my lifelong friend, Kelly Simpson. We had been friends since the first grade and had been closer than sisters. I had been betrayed by my husband, Todd Forestt, and I wanted Kelly to help...
"Wait, what?" I asked. I almost pointed in the direction of the retreating Seamus; who had turned out to be Eric in disguise. Of course Bolthos didn't know that, so I turned it into an idle gesture; circling my finger in the air like an idiot. "How do you NOT know who the Master is? Tall guy? Muscles? Grey eyes? Magic?" "The guy you've been living with," Bo...
We made our entrance in to the restaurant. Upon stepping through the door, although no heads actually turned, it almost felt as if all eyes were on us. We were dressed to the nines, feeling powerful and sexy. I was wearing a sleek black suit. My wife, however, was the truly stunning one. She wore a tight blue strapless dress with a wide open top, exposing he...
She walked home from a long day at the center, her lab coat billowing in the breeze as she edged closer towards her house. She could see only two cars in the driveway, telling her he was home. Sara's beautiful eyes flashed as she only imagined what her friend was going to do to her that night. She quickened her pace walking to the door and quickly inserted h...
Damn she was staring into space again. She shook her head to shake off the fog and daze that seem to plague her lately. She searched the clock on the wall to discover she only had to be here five more minutes. These past few weeks had been difficult. Waking up going to work proved more and more the task. She missed him terribly but couldn't explain it. She d...
Catherine waited nervously as she awaited Justin's arrival. The two hadn't seen each other in almost two years, but now, were finally going to be able to spend some real time together. Sure the hours spent talking on the net were fulfilling, but both yearned to be near each other, to feel each others presence and enjoy one another's company. The two had be...
The woman looked at her reflection. She was no beauty, yet there was tremendous beauty in her. As her hands flowed along the side of her face and down her neck, she thought, "Who didn't start out as beautiful? Wasn't it the things that happened later that began to conceal it...diminish it?" Her eyes wandered to the trees and sunshine outside. But what they...
A doctor appeared in the door and called Whip's name. He nodded and stood. "I'll be right back, okay?" "No!" I called out. Then in a moment that was completely incongruent with my typically fierce independent nature, I started to sob. "Please, don't leave me, you have to stay right here. Please!" Trying to sit up to stop him, my heart raced, pain shot throu...
