I made a horrendous error in the first chapter and I apologise wholeheartedly. I forgot to add credits to Charlie who helped me with editing. Thanks Charlie you are a star. My life was now in tatters, my marriage and everything I had worked for had evaporated, disappeared up in smoke. I was a grumpy sour bastard, I snapped at everyone and I knew I was hard...
9. The Dark Labyrinth Evelyn shivered a little. She found herself standing naked, her staff in hand, on a broken sheet of granite at the apex of a dreary mountain pass. Looking behind, she saw a long, rocky climb she was happy not to have made. Ahead of her lay a large valley swathed in a grey fog. The path at her feet wound down the slope in front of her...
We grew harder, that winter. Leaner. We were warriors, and believed that we were already hard men. But the rough living made us even tougher. Borna looked more wolf-like all the time. Khoren began to remind me of a starving bear. I didn't need a looking-glass to know that it was happening to me, too. I could feel it, almost - the fat burning away, leaving o...
Kim was smart, freaky smart. Standing at just five foot three inches and having a pert 44 EE bust, she looked down at all the rejection letters she had received in an effort to try to get the needed practical experience to finish her doctorate. Ireland did not need someone of her talents, nor did the continent. With dwindling savings, she sent a general resu...

"For the panic of the wilderness called to him in that far voice—the power of untamed distance, the desolation that destroys. He knew in that moment all the pains of someone hopelessly and irretrievably. He had seen the Wendigo." -Algernon Blackwood, "The Wendigo". *** Four of us went up: Shawna, Eric, Karina, and me. I'm the only one who came back. The...
Ba-Ding! I checked the display... three minutes away, thirty-five minute trip, and a decent rider rating. Of course, I accepted the trip. It was 2:15 am, bars closed fifteen minutes ago, and I lived a half hour south. With any luck, this passenger was going my way, a good end to a busy night of carting drunks home. I pulled around the corner and checked th...

Of course he had no idea who she was, but he politely greeted her, "Hi." "So, how excited are you?" Nora beamed. "It's pretty exciting." Barry shrugged, casually taking a glass of...

Greetings, and welcome to chapter four of my story. "Two Broken Roads" is presented in five chapters that are all interconnected. Readers are welcome to enjoy the story any way they want, but it will make more sense if read in order. Other than some steamy conversations, there's not much sex until the end. And fair warning for those readers who are offended...
