Walking hand in hand with Rory, Noah was escorting the energetic little guy from daycare. They were still far away from home and Rory had not yet run out of stories about the day's misadventures. Lately, Rory was the only thing that put a smile on Noah's face. Crystal had gone on vacation -- which was a very good thing, in his opinion -- but she told him tha...
I read a story a while back about a couple on holiday where they were held at gunpoint after they had strayed out of the tourist safe area. The wife was raped and the husband severely beaten. They never caught the culprits, but some of the locals told of stories where the couple had sought revenge. This story it one of fiction based on the event that happe...
The bunker was surprisingly comfortable if a bit outdated in style. The Secretary of the Interior wondered how much had been spent yearly to keep the emergency shelter as comfortable as possible. Dozens of staff whirled around, slowly breathing life into the dormant facility. He could feel the hum of a very large generator somewhere beneath him. Most of his...
CHAPTER 1: ARRIVAL The ringing of the telephone woke her. Claire turned to check the clock. Just after 3 a.m. Damn. Now she wished she hadn't stayed up later than usual.

This is the second part of The Lake House Lessons. You will enjoy this better if you read part 1. Sunday I was dreaming that someone was watching me while I slept. It was creepy, but when I opened my eyes, it turned out not to be a dream. Sitting on the side of my bed, looking at me, was Beth. I could see her pretty oval face, olive skin, and curly dark h...

One of the most vivid dreams I've ever had involved an empty house, a chair, and a woman. In an otherwise empty room, the woman was sitting up straight in the chair, her arms bound behind her, making her back arch. I kneeled in front of her, and kissed and sucked and nibbled and licked her nipples while she moaned. I guess it was what they call a lucid drea...
They entered a very impressive office complex that spanned the entire 15th floor. Everyone deferred to John as he walked by and it was clear he was in complete control of those who worked for him. Tammy noted that most tried to avoid eye contact as he walked to his office. Once inside the office the noise outside vanished. Such was the soundproofing that Ta...
I was bleeding like a stuck pig from the cut I had just ripped on my right hand working on my car engine, so I ran from the garage into the downstairs bathroom for a towel and then a washcloth.
