Day 1 "Will ya give it a rest?" Phylis says, the look of utter impatience on the old elf's face. Without access to the well, she ages like fruit. Elves are known for their near-immortality, but that's only given to those who can afford it. The well of life may be sacred ground and is limitless, but it still has a price. At least to the Supreme Counselor, an...
Here is my third story. Another memorable experience from my days as an undergraduate, trying to make a few bucks to pay the bills. I'm fortunate. I grew up in a middle-class neighborhood in the northeast US. My dad worked and my mom stayed at home. We didn't have anything fancy, and there was nothing we went without. And when it came time for college, I di...
The doorbell rang. Julia looked up and wondered aloud to her husband, Caleb, "Who in the world could that be at nine on a Saturday morning? Sit still; I'll get it." Julia and Caleb had finished a late breakfast of quiche and fruit on a warm, Biloxi spring morning. They were now leisurely perusing the New Orleans Times-Picayune over cups of fragrant coffee....
She looked to the window, sorrow creasing her brow as the rain continued to banter it's never ending drumbeat upon the glass, so close, her cheek pressed to the chilled panes as she waited, wanting, looking, ever desperate for a sign. It was no ordinary day, none by far as any would have of their own standard. No... He would come to her this day... A scarl...

I opened my eyes and stared at acoustic ceiling tiles. 'Strange' I thought to myself, 'I don't recall having acoustic tiles in the ceiling of my bedroom. I turned my head to check the time on my clock radio to find it strangely missing, and in its place there was a plastic jug and a glass. "Awake at last I see." The voice was unfamiliar. "What do you have t...
Author's note: As usual, the first chapters of my series are low in kinks as I prefer to work on character development first. Chapter 2 will definitely have more heat and more BDSM elements. Some nice things are coming. Hopefully you'll enjoy this first chapter. :) *** Chapter 1 - The first dollars I just broke up with my boyfriend. I loved him very much,...
We went to our old high school later on that day. It was a surreal feeling to see other kids walking the halls that we'd once owned. Our teachers were all very happy to see us, giving us hugs and introducing us to their students. Some of the kids asked how the teachers were when we attended and we told them stories that had everyone laughing. We left address...
Things had been going very well for me over the past two years. I had been promoted to Vice President of Finance in my company and Cindy and I had finally been financially able to get ourselves into a position where we again owned our own home and were pretty secure. Life looked very good for both Cindy and I at this point, all our problems behind us and not...
[continued] Cool night air bit Elsie as she stumbled out the door and into the empty street. Chase, the village blacksmith who had just ravaged her, did not follow her into the darkness; for this, Elsie was profoundly relieved. He'd offered to walk home with her but the idea horrified her and she begged off as politely as she could. She'd not even bothered...
