It was colder than she thought it would be. Pinter's boot sank shin-deep in snow as the weight of her gear finally caught up with her. Everything was amplified in this cold that pressed down like an enormous hand, adding to the weight of her gear, slowing her progress through this endless snow. Snow and wind. And mountains. The wind bit fiercely at what lit...

A little later than anticipated but hope it's worth the wait :) My thanks to Mistress of Shadows and Angel n Disguise for editing for me #hugs Enjoy! * Freya sat at her kitchen table trying to ignore the noise that was grating on her nerves. It had been going on for the last hour and her irritation levels were spiking in response. Why had she agreed to t...
If you told me six months ago that this would happen, I wouldn't believe you. The fact that it actually is happening is completely insane. I was pretty sure I was destined for a life where a sulked about my problems all on my own. Having someone to sulk to really ruins that edgy street cred, not that I had much of that anyway. *** Steve looked at the clock...
"Pay attention, you silly girl," the cook said. Razai grimaced. She'd been listening for any sounds coming from upstairs, but the noise of the footmen clomping through the hallway outside the kitchen had drowned out anything else. "Yes, Cook," she said, appropriately obsequious. "Sorry, Cook." The job Renny Senshall had given her, determining whether two...
Author's Note: This is the follow-up encounter between Kavitha and Jamal promised at the end of "Shy Indian Wife's Humiliating Exam" and "My Humiliating Immigration Exam." While this story can be read on its own, it references characters from these stories as well as from "Mom, Medical School, and Dr. Jamal." All the kids had left for the day, and I was in...

"It was a reaction to the fear they strike in most men's hearts. When you say them it's usually a way to make us better. It's usually something I might have thought about...
This is my first story. Hope ya'll enjoy. Don't forget to comment! Colby didn't know what to do. She was being followed; she could feel it. Of course the street lights had to be out at that time of night. The woods loomed ahead and she quickly walked into them. She knew better but maybe her follower would lose her among the brush and trees. Then she beg...
Aayla crossed the threshold into the Orange Lady cantina and looked around discreetly for her contact. The patrons looked only moderately better than other areas on Nar Shaddaa, but at least the air was a bit cleaner. She moved past a Togruta slave dancer and her eager Weequay companion and pushed her way toward the counter where she sat down next to a tanne...
Sandy, Richard's relief driver, called Friday to tell Richard that she had put her little girl in the hospital early Wednesday morning, told her why and then added that she was just home to take a shower. "This is the first time I've left her since Wednesday," she said. "You can imagine what I look like by now! "Oh honey, I can better imagine how you must s...
