HVAD CHAPTER 2 It may have sounded insane, at first, but Borna's plan had a certain logic to it. We had no flint, to make a fire, and no furs to sleep under. We had no food, no bows or arrows, and nothing to set traps or snares with. We couldn't hunt with a sword, or axes and daggers. Hiding in the forest wasn't an option. First, we would have to find our...
Drake switched between putting his weight on his arms and on his toes. Both were unbearable but by switching he gave one or the other a little relief. It had been a few hours since Raell had left, and the sun was fully up in the sky. The three men waited, hungry and hot, for the return of their mistress. It was past noon when Raell once again made her appe...
1876... "Yup! Still in Hell." Sadie Outlaw opened her eyes to an early morning breeze over the rough terrain that she had set up camp on. Even in this era the sunrise was beautiful over Texas. She just wished that there was a Starbuck's right around the corner. Sadly with as much gear as she was unwilling to leave behind a coffee pot was not on her list. F...
Fall evaporated into winter, then the spring rains soaked us for weeks making road construction next to impossible. Finally the warm breezes of the summer of 1967, allowed us to move full speed ahead on the project. Lots were selling briskly, and houses seemingly sprang from the earth along the man made canals. The commercial hub of the community had also s...
In the high mountain deserts temperatures can go from one extreme to an other, from down right cold at night to blistering hot during the day. This summer has been no different from summers in the past. The only exception is now we have to cater to bunch of tin horns. It seems the ranch I've been working for has come up with another way of making money. Tou...

Constructive comments/emails are welcome and appreciated. There are no graphic sex scenes in this story. Thanks for taking the time to read my work and I hope you enjoy it. *******...
CHAPTER ONE (England) Disillusioned, angry and feeling like whoring, Rothschild Cape stood outside the publishing house of Byron and Shakespeare, rejected manuscript under his arm. He watched a lady riding sidesaddle eating grapes but holding her nose as she passed the horse-drawn night-cart that ought to have been off the streets at that time of day. Rot...
Well before dawn, we had finished stacking the bodies. On our side, Priit and Shant were dead, and three other fighters with them - one a woman. Four more were wounded, none of them seriously. It was a complete, staggering triumph. I hadn't yet figured out all of the implications. Manahir's power was broken - perhaps for good, if Borna could exploit his vic...
The tears ran down her cheeks, the wind bitterly slapping at her as she raced through the woods. She urged her horse on, asking for more run. Her mare, ever willing to go faster took it up a notch, galloping like the racehorse she once was. Callie held on, trying to forget, trying to not cry even harder at the horror of her ordeal. She had to get away, had t...
