Part I -- Dread and Desire Aaron stood at the door in the silent, faintly lit corridor of the condominium building where he'd been directed. Having knocked and waited several minutes, he contemplated turning to escape the uncertainty, to escape his racing pulse, but his legs would not respond to his inner message to retreat. It had been several weeks since...
I resolved to be married by the end of the year. This was my one and only New Year's Resolution. Of course, my prospects for marriage were slim. I worked two jobs and often a third so that I could put money aside for an eventual easier life. At one job, I was a full-time computer programmer and web designer. I then free lanced in the evenings for another co...
The Syral This is my story. You might find it hard to believe but every word is true. I am a service technician by trade. I am single, 32, and live in Richmond Va. I use to live a very ordinary life. But all this changed on my way to work one morning. While crossing the James River bridge I observed a young lady, standing on the edge ready to jump. I bolt...
The limousine pulled through the imposing rod iron gate, the words "EROS ACADEMY" emblazoned above it. As the wheels rolled up the long driveway, past the manicured lawns and fountains, Michael felt his heart flutter as he looked at the tremendous building on the other end of the grounds.

Chapter 1: An Intimate Evening with Rhett Jeni smiled at Rhett and said, "I think I can make a better cup of coffee than this. Would you like to drop by and continue this conversation at home?"

It was a beautiful summer day in Sydney. It was going to get up to about 26C/80F and with clear blue skies, a light breeze and low humidity it was perfect. That suited us fine. I'm Randy, "born in the USA", as Bruce Springstein would say. However, I came to Australia 10 years ago and liked it so much I arranged to stay. I live with a lovely Australian woman...
My names Candace, but I prefer to be called Candy. I am 22 years old and have recently qualified as a primary school teacher. I have secured a post for September in a large village primary school in the south of England. As I had completed my training in June the school gave me the opportunity to work the last three weeks of the summer term to get to know th...
The two Petreau boys were watching over their mother's apartment while she was on an extended European vacation with her church group. The two brothers were upper classmen at a college in another town and had summer jobs that kept them too busy for meeting girls. They had returned from a late supper to find that the contractor had left a mess in their apartm...
It all began with having had a little too much to drink one evening with my friend and neighbour, Marc. Marc, the consummate ladies' man, was nothing if not self-confident; something I always found simultaneously galling and enviable. Somehow though, his charm always made even the worst of his shortcomings tolerable, don't ask me why. That night, several mon...
Tuesday morning, half an hour before the appointed time of midday, Kent arrived. I had already discussed most of the important issues at length with Melissa, prior to our involvement with her family. There were still a few issues remaining to be covered, mostly concerning privacy at Kent's new mansion. Kent had been pleased with the weekend interaction and p...
