Chapter 1 – I sell myself Sitting on the monorail, looking at my reflection in the window and ignoring the city as it sped by, I told myself it would only be for three months. Three months wearing the collar, three months of almost no-holds barred slavery. The credits would get me out of the hole I'd dug for myself, and then I could book passage off this ma...
"HOT COCOA! MORE HOT COCOA! I DEMAND HOT COCOA!" Milo Greyson had very little need for sleep but the effects of caffeine offered a different effect on him. It made his drive to work hyperactive. Like humans and their excessive abuse of caffeinated drinks to stay wired and alert Milo enjoyed hot cocoa as a stimulant to achieve goals. Let's not get started on...
Describe Leah? Okay...she's got a pretty, cute face, surrounded by lustrous, rich chestnut-brown hair. She's got a body that would make any monk regret his lifestyle choice. She's intelligent, vivacious, funny, tactile, loving and very devoted. So it's probably just easiest to say she's hot as hell...and yet she doesn't know it. She thinks she's average, s...
Chapter Ten We were on the bridge, and had barely entered light speed, with ten days ahead of us. Well, I was on the bridge with Bellona, the others were in the nursery with our babies.

Day Six Interior-Andi Samuel's Bedroom 0342 Hours Tammy threw the dart up, watching it carefully. She grinned when it stuck in the high ceiling on the first try. Tugging gently on the line coming down from it, she satisfied herself that it was secure. She let the thin line out, stopping when she saw that it was level with Andi's cheek, and tied it off. S...
I didn't know he had come back to the house. Probably because my eyes were closed and I was thrashing as the waves of pure heat and pleasure crashed through me. My screams were only slightly muffled by the ball gag. As the waves settled into little ripples, I half opened my eyes, floating. That's when I saw that Patrick had stepped into the bedroom. He had...
Belinda could feel the sweat dripping down her torso as she gave her presentation. She had been expecting that she would be teaching the local Aerojet engineers and their manager at their branch office in Socorro, so she had dressed appropriately for a formal training seminar in a venue with functional air conditioning. Her skirt and matching blazer with a d...
I originally set this story to be six chapters, but it's not working out that way. I know how it ends, but the journey getting there is taking different routes than envisioned. I'll write until the story is told and not make any further arbitrary predictions as to length. ---------------------------------------- I should have been sleeping. It was a three...
