*It's time for Chapter 3! I really hope you guys enjoy it. I received several comments urging me to give Bee more substance. This chapter is dedicated to her and gives you a feel of who she is and what type of life she's lived. Enjoy!* *********************** *RING* "Hello?" "Bee!" Bianca's face lit up, "CoCo, hey doll." It was an early Saturday m...
The Bonding Anya By ten that morning Michael, my master, was $200,000 richer, and I had a spot of blood on my favorite shoes. I'm not allowed shoes often, and comfortable shoes are a special treat. Still things had gone amazingly well. The criminals we'd robbed, though apparently very important men, had only brought one bodyguard each, which made this t...
Jane cursed in the darkness as she tried to find the light switch. When she finally found it one of the bulbs blew with a pop and the single remaining bulb flickered uncertainly before deciding not to die today. She paused to inhale some asthma medication before proceeding with difficulty further into the basement. She peered uncertainly at the labels on eac...
The next morning Bill got out of the house early, avoiding Nancy. Shortly after 9AM he called a guy in town who had worked as the client contact on a project that Bill had supervised. He had heard that Joe had gotten a divorce in the last six months. He made a luncheon date. Bill and Joe played 'Whatever happened to ...' until the food arrived. After the wa...

Cecilia continued telling Jason to push Ken and Lisa in their studies, and made herself available to various residents who were having problems with their midterms. Of course, there were the inevitable crises over panicked fres...

Just like they had done since circa 300 BC. A little after the crack of dawn, children ran o...
Sandy Chapter two I worked the whole July Fourth weekend. Partly it was previously scheduled time, partly filling in for a couple of others so they could have the whole weekend. After all, they would be filling in for me. We only had a couple 'car vs. poles' and neither resulted in major outages, and luckily no one died. (I always hated it when someone was...
Gina rose wearily just before 10:00 and noticed her right leg limp appeared to be almost gone. Well she'd been walking more than usual and had resumed sex. Vigorous sex was good for most people so could be doing wonders for that recovering thigh muscle. She grinned, thinking about last night. Nathan had booked into the hotel after finding someone else in his...
Poachers were the worst. Not humans. The random kind, the animals that caught a whiff of farm stock and dug under the fences. At the same time, Mina relished the challenge of a stray wolf or fox, since they usually put up a fight when she wrangled them into submission, sometimes saving a chicken or small pig in the process. Doing so got her covered in filth,...
This is a work of fiction. Any similarities to any person living or dead is purely coincidental. All characters depicted are 18 years of age or older. Zoey had been my best friend for most of my life. I know it's unusual for a guy to have a girl as a best friend, but that's the way it worked out. We grew up in a small town together, went through grade schoo...
