"Do you love me?" He asked, with a mischievous smile on his face. "I do, Sir." I replied timidly. I stared ahead and down to the floor in front of me. The only place I was allowed to look when in my collar. I could only just see him in my peripheral vision. "And do you worship me?" "I do, Sir, as my God." His smile widened and I felt his presence move ar...
The other couple was somehow arresting. I don't know what it was exactly. Maybe it was just that the mid-week crowds at the ski area were so thin. Whatever it was, we had noticed them right off that morning. Well, that's not quite true – I should say that Sarah had noticed them. We had arrived just before the lifts opened, so that we could get ready in time...
Her dark blue-green eyes glittered mysteriously in the mirror before her. Was this the same woman who hours before had been sitting around moping in a worn terrycloth bathrobe? She could hardly believe the transformation in herself in such a short period of time. She was tall, the stiletto heels adorning size 7 feet turned proudly against the shiny hardwood...
As Wolf pulled the blindfold off of Ali's face it was the first time he had seen her eyes sparkle as she graced him with a magnificent smile. "I can't believe it!" Ali hadn't been back to Kuaui in a long time. He knew that sometimes she longed for home so much that she would cry at night. While she was away today he'd outdone himself. He'd set up fake palm...
"Nervous, too damned nervous," she thought as she pulled into the hotel parking lot. "What am I doing here?" She got out of her vehicle, glancing in the mirror first to make sure her hair was good and there wasn't anything stuck in her teeth. She was amazed at how the adrenaline had made her knees really wobbly. "I'm meeting a man, other than my husband, fo...
Charles stared off into the dark of the pool house. The water reflected the dim lights from the outside, as well as the moon, casting eerie shadows along the walls. Mist rose off the water and cascaded over the sides of the pool. Softly, the fogged, glass door to the pool house opened and a shadow crept in. Under shadow, Charles watched the shadow, unseen. C...
James turned the sleek black sports car onto the on ramp and pressed the accelerator down to the floor. The motor revved and the car sped down the interstate as if it was shot out of a cannon. James reached for his cell phone and dialed the number that he had recently acquired. The phone rang just a few times and then a very sultry voice answered "Hello?"...
Vanessa felt overwhelmed. Her boss had just dumped a new client on her and she felt unprepared. The client was to arrive in town tonight for a meeting tomorrow. She perused her calendar to try to fit him in. "Damn!" She thought. She could see him at 4 pm but there was a lot to discuss with a first time client and she fully expected that she would have to con...
It's true, I'd always been a rather shy, introverted, quiet man. Finding Shannon had seemed to change that, at least until now. Now I stood at a doorway, emotions running rampant and a fire burning inside like I'd never experienced before. Before this time, I don't know, I probably would have...well I just don't know. What I did know was that I needed a plan...
Mattie considered holidays in the country to be a bore. She'd argued strongly with her parents about coming with them but they had been insistent. She pointed out that she'd stayed home the previous year and she was now a year older. Why couldn't she stay home this year? Afterwards, she admitted that that particular argument had been a mistake. "I know yo...
