Inari and Priya were in their respective seats when the Darkstrider dropped out of hyperspace. It had been several hours since they made their initial jump in this direction, and it was refreshing for Inari to be in the pilot seat again. They had come out at the local waypoint on their way to Veldhern, and like the Phalarn waypoint, this one was empty. It wa...
His mother had warned him never to hitchhike. He should have listened to her. Of course, it had seemed like a good idea at the time. How the hell else was he going to get down to Salinas when his truck had a busted timing chain? It had seemed an even better idea when the woman had finally picked him up after he had stood beside the dark road for what seemed...
A couple of weeks after Sholanda and I declared our love to each other, she surprised me even more. One afternoon when I came home from work she was already at my apartment. I had given her the key a few weeks earlier but this was the first time that she used it. It was now about two and a half months since we had met at the bar and we still lived separate...
"Now there's a nice piece of tail," I mumbled into my drink. And when I said it, I meant it pretty literally. She had tail. Two, of them, actually. I was sitting in my favorite dive where I kill time between trips out to the asteroid belt, mining for heavy metals. This had so far been an uneventful leave; my usual partners were off-station and I didn't want...

The Moon Spectre Moon Base August 15, 2019 20:53 EDT I stood there for a good five minutes or so watching the little arms inside the med chamber do their work. There were perhaps a dozen or so arms, but the only ones moving were two that pulsed some sort of energy at Aleena's wound. Aleena lay on her side under anesthetic while the two arms were position...
Part One: The Beginning The day had begun like any other for Samantha Blake, or at least like any other on this particular vacation. At age 23, Samantha already had it all. She'd attempted to go to college at USC, but had partied too much and wasn't able to keep up with the work. It hadn't mattered though, she'd been able to marry into the wealthy Burghoff...
(Note; this story is a sequel to my earlier Restarted, parts one and two, and hence also belongs in the same series as Thanks for the Memories. You shouldn't need to have read any of them to understand it, but you might enjoy things most if you read stuff in order.) * Edgar's phone rang while he was having breakfast, sitting in the kitchen while still wear...
Mistress Kathy's Academy of Domination and Submission Chapter 5 There were about thirty armored women staring at Adam. Their midriff-bearing armor was designed more for vanity than for functionality, but the swords in the scabbards were real. Most of the women were seated at wooden tables while their food was being served. A few slaves of both sexes nerv...
