Not only a friend lost but also a great ally against th...
Rosanna sat in the bushes with a group of podded humanoids, blinking in the light of the afternoon sun. It was hard to credit, but it had only been a few hours since her initial capture. Mistress worked quickly, preparing for the landing party. The area outside the cave was quiet, long stalks of the soporific flowers filling the under canopy. Above, the wav...
The plant benefited from the warm, wet spring; for twenty millennia it had bided its time. The spades of the gardeners, churned the soil and brought the pod to the surface.

With absolutely no sexual prowess on my part whatsoever, I stumbled into a situation where I was to become the "M" in a "FFM" love triangle. Mags and Mary had been lovers for several years. It...
The underground sewer system beneath District 6. Alessandra's boots squelch across the dim tunnel. Sun's spell keeps their footing dry, but the pressure of stepping onto the psychic bridge still churns the putrid water underneath. "Have you found anything?" asks Mortimer in the captain's earpiece. "Not yet, Sir. Just brick, metal and cement." She waves th...
I groaned long and hard. The pain in my lower back was excruciating and my pelvic floor felt like it was about to tear apart. The joints in my hips hurt and sweat covered my body. The buzz of activity all around, accompanied with the medical beeping was an irritating distraction. I closed my eyes, dropped my head and fought hard to catch my breath. "Come o...

"Take me to the fuckin' hospital...I want this baby out now." I growl through gritted teeth to anyone that would listen but especially to the dark skinned young man holding my hand and rubbing my lower back as I leaned against his shoulder in the birthing pool.
