Author's note: this is my homage to Robert E. Howard's Conan stories, and also to some of the pastiches stories published over the years. I read them back in high school. Recently, I came across Modiphius Publishing's new 'Conan, Adventures in An Age Undreamed Of' role-playing gaming. It inspired me to go back, read REH's original stories, and begin writing...
The accident was like so many I'd heard of before, car pulls out in front of bike and the rider flies thru the air. Well, that was more or less what happened to me. Luckily for me I had two riding buddies along with me, one who had been in the army with me. As an ex-army medic Dave made all the right moves and basically saved my life, riding in the ambulance...
Leonard Hazard was the King, no doubt about it. Lots of people were telling him he was so good at all of the extreme sports that he should be in national competition. What he loved was his skateboard, he could do things on it that appeared to be impossible. There was even a local competition which he had won so easily it wasn't even a competition really, w...
It was a moment of truth. I took a deep breath and walked purposefully down the hallway to the bathroom. Shirtless and focused, I came up on Ray, who was still talking through the door to Jimmy. All the evidence available told me Jimmy was still crying and babbling. He was apparently convinced he was gay. This had somehow been brought on by his belief that h...
[Author's note: Everyone in this story is 18 or older.] Mike's mom and dad got to the hospital later that day. Joe was with them. "How is he?" his mom asked crying. "He's stable," Allie said. "He has some broken bones. The doctors are more concerned about internal bleeding." "Oh my god," his mom cried, her hand going to her mouth. "The doctors think he...
I had just left the hospital after performing a seven hour pro bono operation on a child that needed heart surgery, tired to the point of exhaustion. As one of the most respected cardiologists in NYC I felt it was my duty to give back to the community so I did one pro bono operation and a dozen pro bono consultations a month. I got in the back of the limo th...
"George, are you awake?" The drugs had eased the pain, but they made me groggy, too. My eyes opened, and she stood there, looking sad and yet, concerned. "Honey? Did I wake you?" My mouth was dry. I rasped, "No, just resting." She came up closer, by the pillow. "I'm sorry to bother you. I just wanted to see how you were doing. I'm sorry, I'm John's mothe...
Carla, laying with her knees bent toward John's head, ran her fingers in an absent-minded circle on his inner thigh, the taste of his seed still in her mouth, warm and a bit salty. "Mmmmmmmm, that was fun," she thought, smiling slyly. John, whose head nearly exploded with his hard-earned orgasm, had his eyes closed and was enjoying the feeling of her fing...
"What the hell are you doing here," Annie O'Reilly said to herself in the mirror as she tried to pin that stupid nurses hat on her head for the third time. After sticking herself with the bobby pins, Annie finally got the starched, old-fashioned cap to sit straight over her bun of scarlet hair. She was in the bathroom, or as the German's called it, der bade...
I had gotten myself into a terrible sleep pattern since I had broken my leg and wrecked my knee, I would sleep until about 5 o'clock in the morning and then I just had to get out of bed. My wife would leave for work about 8 o'clock and then I had the place to myself all day long, but I just couldn't go back to bed. Then about two or three o'clock in the aft...
