Shit! Susan tore up the pari-mutual tickets and tossed them on the ground. She had been so sure that Indian Fog was going to win that she had bet her last $200 on the horse. Dead last for Christ's sake! The goddamn glue bag had come in dead last. At 7 to 1 she would have been sitting pretty, but now she was in deep trouble. The money she'd just lost was the...
It all happened a bit suddenly. But then, that's probably the reason the term "sudden turn of events" was coined in the first place. It was a regular day out for Ava Devine. She was headed to the hottest, most happening club in North London for a special appearance. The club's owner was a huge fan and friend of hers and he wanted to spike up the glam quotie...

Alex checked the address on the slip of crumbled paper. Taking a deep breath, Alex walked up the chipped stone steps and knocked on the door. About five minutes later, a woman peeped through the tiny slit in the blinds. "Can I help you?" she asked in an quiet, unsure voice. "Um, I here about the room." Alex called back. "Oh, one sec." Alex heard the deadb...
Aurora woke with her stomach grumbling and the scent of bacon, eggs and butter that saturated the air did nothing to calm her hunger. She sat up in the king sized bed that she had bought because her wings would drag at the edges with smaller beds, not to mention that fact that she rolled around a lot in her. A smaller bed just wouldn't do. Aaaaand it had com...
