Chapter 1 Destiny Lysander awoke with a gasp. Her heart was racing. The bed sheets were soaked with sweat. Her cranky little air conditioner had done little to lower the stultifying heat and humidity of the early July Washington, D.C. morning. It was a dream, Destiny gasped with relief, only a dream. God, it was so real Destiny struggled to separate out t...
Author's note: This is, in all its seven parts and their many chapters, one very, very long story. If long stories bother you, I suggest you read something else. No part of this story is written so as to stand on its own. I strongly suggest that you start with the beginning of Part 1 and read sequentially—giving up at any point you choose, of course....
Author's notes: This is an edited version of the original story, which was submitted in a rush to the Valentine's Day contest. My warmest thanks to Wylderos, the generous and perceptive reader who found most of the weak spots but was gentle in pointing them out. Any remaining mistakes are my own fault. ~~~~~ "Here goes...something," Kim said, as she sucked...
Ann looked amazing, the sunlight reflecting off her golden skin as it came in through the windshield of her car. We were heading west from her Aunt and Uncle's house, driving up the eastern side of the mountain range that separated the valley they lived in, and the town near Pleasanton where Ann lived with her roommates. It was early afternoon as we drove...
All people and places are fictional. All characters are over eighteen. **** January 1st, 2015 Mia got me this journal for Christmas and said I better use it. So here goes. She said it's for private stuff. Thoughts and dreams and fantasies. Ha! Wouldn't she like to know all that stuff! Maybe that's her plan, to sneak in here and steal this someday, after I...
The cold fingers of the wind seeped through even the careful layers that she pulled tighter about her, hardening nipples that were already aching with need for their touch. Once more the waters of the fjord were as turbulent as the emotions blowing inside her mind, tossing and rolling waves lapped at the sides of the boat. Kirsty stilled herself for whatever...
If you want something 'hot' from the outset this is probably not for you. This is essentially a 'romance'. The basis of this story is the notion that we can be redeemed through love. I was motivated to use a shorter form after reading the story 'Home is Where the Heart Is' by lovecraft68, which I'd recommend. My use of 'Jamie' as the protagonist is a nod in...
1. Virginity It was happenstance, really. I was a 24 year old IT person, and was at a company dinner to celebrate its fifth year. There were several large tables, and the dinner was a catered party. Sitting across from me was Glenda, a pleasant, matronly woman who worked in payroll, whom I had occasion to help with IT problems now and then. Seated next to...
