She woke just as the sun was coming up. Still dressed, her book open on the bed beside her. Lying on her back, she stared up at the ceiling of her room, and counted the cracks she found. Ten this time, same as last. The house was old, and run down. A far cry when it had been one of the finest in town then. Not that any of the towns better citizens ever stepp...
She was mad — no, "mad" was the wrong word. Humiliated. That, she thought, was more like it. And someone would have to pay. Heeding Abraham's instruction, she'd risen in the dead of night and climbed out of bed, only her nightgown keeping her from the chill of the cold. She'd crept downstairs, and the pained creaking of the wood panels could have been born...
"Ani, love!" Shekhar called as he returned from the office. " A surprise and a strange co-incidence. Guess what? " "What is it, darling? " I asked giving him a peck on the cheek. We had been married for four years and had a wonderful marriage. Though there was a bit of cheating involved, on my part of course( I naturally didn't know about Shekhar), it had o...

Angela sat silently as the car ate up the miles ahead. She had so many things going through her head. When did her cover get blown? How did anyone know where she was? Who was the leak in the FBI?

Thank you for the feedback it's been lovely! I actually posted a lot more than I intended in the first part. I uploaded the wrong document and the second half had not been proof read, but hey if you liked it then I guess I can live with that. :D I tend to gravitate to the darker stories and this will likely be one of those. It might get a happy ending, it...
Mountains of gratitude to honeywldcat for her editing of this entire series. * I woke, for the first time, not wondering who it was sleeping in my arms. Remembering the past night, I opened my eyes slowly and looked down at Danielle. She didn't stir against me as I pulled back ever so slightly to examine her. She was sleeping soundly, the closest thing to...

Double Take Nancy and Fancy were twin sisters. They had been born in the middle of May (Gemini's) and were currently 22 years old. They were identical twins from the top of their pretty heads, to the bottom of their tiny feet. Every freckle matched, even the length of the hairs on their head stayed the same. They had one difference... besides the not so won...
Epilogue Ten Years Later. "You didn't exactly converse with the gods," said Trixie testily, angrily chopping the cocaine on a mirrored coffee table with a razor blade. "More they commanded you and you had nothing to say back. If you did, I'm sure they'd have ignored it." Kat sighed. Removing her coat, she sat beside her true love and grabbed the chopping...
