Stephanie awoke to the sun peeking through the upstairs bedroom windows. She was glad to be back in her own bed. The conference in London had gone wonderfully. Jake had spoken on the political consequences of colonialism on the African continent, such as civil wars, the Rwanda genocide, and apartheid. Stephanie had spoken specifically about how education had...
Being a teacher you hear many things, especially when your desk sits right next to the frosted glass window, and the path to the senior courtyard runs right beneath it. The courtyard itself starts at the end of the building, where the staff room was located. Sometimes the children would sit on the path, eating or just chatting to each other. We had a vast nu...
Docile; by definition: quiet, easy to control, and unlikely to cause trouble. Walking down the long and more than tiring driveway that lead to her house, Cathie couldn't keep her mind off of David's actions. Why did he ask me if I knew anyone in town? Why had he gone out of his way to bring me lunch like that today? All these questions and more would soon b...
I get back in the car, so cold from the cold water in the gas station and the night air. I have the coat wrapped around me, just trying to warm myself. I say to you as you wrap the leash around the head rest again, "Thank you Master for allowing me to wash myself." Your reply to that being, "If you were really thankful cunt, you wouldn't have that coat on,...
Ruby glanced around her parlor, making sure everything was in place. The ladies would be arriving soon and her critical eye made sure nothing was missing, everything arranged just so. The tea service gleamed on the sideboard, fresh linen towels stacked and fanned next to it. The little cakes and cookies she'd picked up from her favorite bakery rested temptin...
Simon awoke to find the sun streaming in through his bedroom window and the warmth of the day already beginning to find its way into his room. For a moment he thought he had overslept and a moment of tension gripped him, but then, smiling, he relaxed into his pillow as he realised this was the fourth day of his summer holiday. After dozing for a while, he...
Kay could not have been more frustrated. She was due to go out tonight to a club to meet a couple of the girls from work who were celebrating a late birthday. At that moment her husband had turned on the new CCTV cameras in the house and something had gone wrong as nothing worked. James was out in the shed trying to fix it now. He wasn't having much luck an...
It took so long for Saturday to arrive but thank goodness it was here. It was too rough a week for me to not deserve this. School was too much, the emotions I had to go through was troubling at best so there was nothing for me to do. No friend troubles, no schoolwork, nothing. It would just be me, or so I thought. Just kicked back in my apartment after a me...
Here we go again. He came home last night, talked to his clients for an hour and went to bed. Barely a kiss hello, not to mention what I really need. I haven't been laid in at least two weeks. Thank god for batteries. I drift off to sleep. In the middle of the night he gets a phone call, some crisis at work. He goes into the den, but I can still hear the m...
I found Teddy's ad in the newspaper. He wanted to meet a woman in his age bracket with a strong mind and a strong will. I sensed vulnerability and so I called. He told me very quickly that he was 5'11, an investment banker and in good health from going to the gym each day after work. But he was not confident in himself and was just looking for a strong wom...
