Karen was in the middle of making dinner, when the mark on her neck started to get warm. It wasn't unpleasant, so she didn't really think anything of it. Focusing on the mark, her thoughts turned towards Josh. This was always a dangerous topic to dwell on since it normally left her in tears, but with the warmth that was spreading through her, she thought she...
I tried not to think too much about Gaelen's strange behavior after he touched me. My imagination was notorious for going wild already. With a fine expert finesse, I mastered the fine art of jumping to conclusions due to living in colony. Because whatever something happened, we'd all think of the worst scenario that could happen; and when aliens were involve...
It began slowly. I was lightly dozing in bed, naked, when the first signs that something was wrong happened. At first it felt like the beginning tremors of an earthquake, shaking the queen-sized bed on its frame. I opened my eyes to find the bedroom walls were the colors of fire. The angry color made me sick to my stomach and the room begun to spin out of c...
Sorry about the wait. This part takes up just as Chad had passed out from the Tulok root. He soon realizes that he's not in Kanas anymore and Feather isn't quite what she seemed to be, nor his wife Susan. Leave me a comment to let me know how I'm doing, and don't forget to vote. "My love, you can wake up now my love." Chad heard Susan's voice, he could sm...
"What a day, what a life." Adam was thinking as he took the short cut home through the woods. The fact that he even had need of the short cut, or to walk at all for that matter, was down to the act that he had broken down. To Adam this was just another indication that the whole world and its' dog had it in for him. Work sucked, he had been passed over for p...

–Alliances— Generations ago, society of the world split into two factions. Human and Fey. Daemon and Vampire. The humans allied themselves with the Fey out of fear, though the Fey often turned their noses up to the unenlightened brood. But the humans were right to endure it. After all, things darker lurked in corners ready and willing to turn them to cattle...
You were always a lucky student; the instructors at the Heroes' Academy had said as much when you graduated. Your sparring partners always slipped, your salve ingredients always combined the right way, your sword always seemed to end up at your opponent's weak spot. Some said you had the Goddess watching over you. Most just thought you were an undeservingly...
When Jeff found himself awake at 3:00 AM, he knew in his gut something wasn't quite right. He had always slept soundly, never had any problems with insomnia... but on that night, he couldn't quite coax himself back to sleep. He looked at the digital clock on the wicker nightstand and watched it count up to 3:02, 3:03, 3:04... The green numbers glowed and shi...
Hello all! When I first submitted this, it had been written on my iPhone's notepad, and was fraught with errors. Since then it has been edited, and I do believe all those pesky typos and autocorrect blunders are now nonexistent. Please let me know if you find anything though. I'd love feedback as well. Compliments are great, but I am most interested in gett...
