Max's black Chevy pulled into his girlfriend's drive and he shut the lights off. He was nervous for what he was about to do. "Max," he said to himself, looking into his rearview mirror, "You'd better be right about this." Max took a deep breath and got out of the car, moving at a steady, confident pace up to the front door of his girlfriend's farmhouse. The...
-3- Alyss tried to leave. She wanted to leave. Knowing it was the best thing to do. But she didn't. She just sat there, glancing at Regina and that man as the two spoke, holding the third drink since leaving the bathroom an hour before in her hand, sitting comfortably in one of the high back, almost recliner like chairs. At least she did not pay for any...
PART ONE The excitement in the house was palpable after he told her that they would be going to his club that night. Her delighted exclamation had made him smile as he mentally reviewed what he had planned for the evening. "Wear your new black dress and shoes pet, the ones we just bought, but nothing else." "Nothing, Sir?" "Not a thing, pet." She shive...
It was the middle of another week and Angel found herself alone. Emi had been hired to shoot for a calendar and she had flown off to Aruba two days earlier. She contented herself by hanging out at the Ocean's Reef condo and hitting the clubs at night. Though she was staying busy, she was on the verge of getting a little bored.

"What...I can't spend a night with her...I can bar...
She leaned against a tree, watching from a distance. Tyler didn't even notice until the field had cleared. He felt a presence, someone watching him. And then in the shadows of the trees he spotted her. Who was she, what was she doing there? He finished packing his bag and started to walk in her direction. Glancing back, he noticed that no one was left in the...
Cal looked across at the monitor, watching the multi-dimensional picture flick into life as his eyes rested upon the open space above the gleaming white Manumite table. Rob 1 and 4 still playing up on their 'go-slow', he thought as he stood upright and emptied the flask in one gulp. He watched the robotics as they churned out length after length of perfect...
"Fucking tin can with wings." The large vampire grumbled beside her and Domino chuckled as she looked over at the man. He looked so uncomfortable, even on the overly large, stuffed chair that he sat on. He'd refused to buckle his belt. "So much for thinking I had a big, bad, vampire. Alexandru, you are going to be just fine." She giggled as he looked at her...
Valentine was comfortably snuggled against Whistling Bear's back, her arms wrapped around his powerful torso. She had tucked her feet back, trying to keep them away from the straps and bags of gear that hung from his shoulders. A great quiver hung at his hip, filled with heavy arrows. He carried his bow in his hand as he made his way through the forest at a...
Chapter 3: Watching the Stars Duncan fondly studied the woman beside him. He sure understood how she could feel so discouraged. It had been a tough day. What with her husband abandoning her in the middle of nowhere with a broken car. Then the SOB yelled and sneered at her as a means of feeling better about himself. Helen had confided in Duncan that this wa...
