Three weeks later... In a busy inn in one of the smaller towns in France two knights were talking. "Bad business with the Warbrookes and deRothchilds. That Countess of Warbrooke is -" "A vicious bitch," replied his companion calmly. Lowering his voice, the first knight replied, "I hate to agree - but you're right. The deRothchilds are doing everything fo...
Hands played lightly over her red silk dress. Through the lace of her bra and the smooth fabric of the dress her nipples pressed forward. For the first time in what seemed like ages warmth blossomed deep in her loins. She lifted her arms to tousle and hold her styled hair inviting him, daring him, to go further. Under the strobing lights and pulsing rhythm o...
Lying under the stars close to the waters' edge, I listen to the waterfall, just a stone's throw away. Feeling a bit restless at this late hour, my mind begins to wander. Unable to remain still, I arise to explore my surroundings. Finding an open ridge, I sit and await the rising sun. I gaze at the dark sky, noticing constellations my mother had pointed out...
Karen picked up and replaced the phone on the handset seven times before she finally dialed Marc's number. For days now she had been trying to garner the courage to call him and invite him on a picnic. It was stupid really, her nervousness.

Today, like most days, seems just the usual routine, the daily schedule, wake up, shower, kids, work, eat, and so on and so forth.

Beyond the protective walls of the Hotel, they were respectable, law-abiding individuals who demanded decency from all they came into contact with. Within those Hotel...
"So how far have you two actually gotten?" Kim prodded in her usual blunt way. "Not far. Kissing, holding hands, that sort of thing," Rhiannon heaved a frustrated sigh, "One time we lay together stargazing on the deck of his boat, but he just held me. Kim raised an eyebrow. It was worse than she'd thought. Rhiannon and Nick had been dating for almost a...
I had just gone through my divorce and was feeling lousy, actually worse than lousy, I was pissed at the world, at women, the whole fucking thing. 30 years down the drain, and she gets more than half, where is the justice? I mean, I expected her to get half, even though she refused to work the last 10 years of marriage. Hell, I'd said, as long as she didn't...
The first I knew that I was being hunted was the arrow that sliced my shoulder. Its silver tip burning the skin as it grazed the flesh near my neck. Another couple of inches and it would have been my throat. I spun round and scanned the tree line, the nails of my hands extending into claws.

As I was getting ready for Amanda's graduation, I was thinking these past five months had flown by. Amanda had finished up her PhD work at UCLA and was getting ready to drive back east to be with her family. Both her parents knew that I called her my girlfriend, and Amanda called me her boyfriend, but we were nothing more than fuck buddies. I have met her pa...
