I just couldn't believe it. After months of time spent planning the perfect trip to Las Vegas to celebrate my 21st birthday, it appeared that everything was falling apart. It was all set, I was going to meet my college buddy Steve, who was flying in from New York from his new job, and we were going to spend the week living it up on the Las Vegas casino and...
Jennie was none too pleased with the thought of a half-day layover at Dallas/Fr. Worth International. Well, nothing an airport bar, a pack of camels, and a good book wont cure she thought to herself, reaching up for her overhead baggage. Several people bumped their way past her. One hurried man in a dark blue business suit crowded past her so furiously tha...
You are John Doe. Seven years ago, you were a low-ranking political adviser for the President. During that time, the nation was dealing with the fallout of nuclear war.

Tim and Mary were a happily married couple in their mid thirties. Tim owned a local hardware business and Mary worked at the library. Mary was an attractive 5'7", 115lbs, with long shapely legs and a 34C chest. Her conservative wardrobe routinely covered her body. She looked and acted like a librarian.

Thanks to 'LadyCibelle' and 'Techsan' for their editing of my story. They are definitely two of the best. Without them my stories would be a mess. I really do appreciate both of them. * Having been married for twelve years, our life seemed good. Twin girls age eleven and a son age nine. Then we had the little one Mary, who was now three. My little pride a...
Katie was a natural beauty, the kind of girl that can be distracting in any office which contains mostly men. The waves in her blonde hair bounced as she made her way around the office, her big blue eyes seemed to urge you to want more, and her big smile would make anyone a little weak in the knees. I had taken all this into consideration when I had first hi...
by Sateema Lunasi (AKA Maralily, AKA, Lily St. Claire) * * * * * Drunk, mascara smearing a dark streak of 'Vampiress Black' down two puffy cheeks, jeans dirty from three days wear, barefoot, one purple bruised eye. I was 23. New York faded away. Joey had hit me for the last time. At least that is what I told myself. I might have gone back to him if he boug...

Ok, I had closed my flat on the West Coast and after getting the key to my landlord, I was to return to my hometown on the other side of the country. Last weeks were kind of brutal, lost a job, lost a boyfriend, plan a relocation, plan the trip, but now I was in my car, finally heading out of that city. Lucky for me, I've always been a squirrel, so I have e...
