This is my first "romantic" story that I have ever worked on without being so incredibly over the top sexually speaking. This is Part I and of course there will be more parts coming soon. ***** A relationship is more than just a simple partnership, it's a task that requires dedication and hard work. It takes a considerable effort to tend to the needs of on...

Interlude I: The Promise of Sand Sand lies underfoot, silent, unknowing, windswept. Sun streams down on vast reaches of sand, it's journey complete. Silent sand, caressed by sun, warmed by the indifference of chaos, sand drifts along the boundary between land and sea. Between what was, and what is. Between being and becoming. Sand drifts just in silence,...
XXX Britain Means Business Tamara 2095 It didn't come as much of a surprise to Tamara when Zoe died. The mystery was rather that she'd managed to live so long given that she'd managed to maintain for so long a drug habit far in excess of what a woman of advanced years was designed to withstand. All the same, it had been good while it lasted. She and M...
XI The Good Seed Mark & Molly 2070 Times were good. OK. Good in the sense that they weren't bad, but the upward climb in the value of the Stock Exchange and the related rise of living standards must count for something. For sure, things would probably never again be as good in London as they were before the National Unity government took power and th...

She continued to look after Callahan's accounts and to take care of the house in Davos, just as she had for well over a year now, but she also continued working for her father. In effect, then, she...
Abel Kalitz, Ambassador Extraordinary of the Federation of West Asia to the Dekerin Domains, had just arrived at his new Embassy, which turned out to be a disappointment. It was a dull, Spartan-looking building with only 2 stories and a rather utilitarian décor. Nevertheless, it was bad form for a diplomat to complain about his accommodations, especially on...
Day 1 Laura was excited when she got off the boat. She hadn't seen Emily in three years and didn't expect they'd be meeting on an island off the coast of Thailand. Emily was on an extended vacation with a boyfriend, now going on two months, and she invited Laura over for the week. They had met while teaching English in Taiwan, and Laura was still there, t...
James was his name. Not Jim or Jimmy, Just James. To friends, enemies, lovers, haters: "James." He could have been a quarterback, at 6'3" with powerful muscles and eagle sharp eyes. He could have been a sailor, as his face showed a deep tan, and crinkles about his eyes. He could have been a lot of things, but he was only one: a spy. Not a "Bond, James Bon...
