The Message Bible (TMB) claims that Ruth crawled under the sheets with Boaz "to signal her availability for marriage." You can look that up for yourself (Ruth 3:7 TMB). In my opinion, TMB has it all wrong because I believe Ruth had a much shorter term goal in mind, namely getting laid. The Bible contains tales of real people who deal with the same primal urg...
An Englishman's property inheritance in Midwest America leads to romance between a womanizing son of a recently deceased Duke and a beautiful but feisty attorney. Both harbor an unfulfilled desire to find a mate who'd exceeded their expectations. Chapter 1 In late spring the Mornington Daily News reported at length the death of the Duke of Beaulieu in the...
Once there were two kingdoms, with two kings. The southern most was warm and fair, with long summers and ample harvest. But the northern one was cold and dark, with little light and fields that grew few crops even when they were not covered with snow. Two kings were brothers. They ruled the lands separated by a single river; one the bright, sunny land, where...
This is the first of a series of short stories about Lord Fletcheour and his realm of Vicmarian that existed almost a thousand years ago in the extreme northern part of what is today Great Britain. Early in the eleventh century the world was very much a different place. Lord Fletcheour was Lord of the manor and had acquitted his title and grant to his land...
Lucinder appeared before his father with the pretty blonde hair of the screaming mortal brat clenched tightly in his fists. Beside the child he looked like a monster; a tall, lithe, and pale creature with skin like that of a corpse and long white hair that framed a gaunt portrait of a black sneer and black eyes. His long nails dug into the little girl's scal...
This is an introduction to characters and surrondings--no sex. Stay tuned for that in the next chapters. The first sun rose slowly, glowing fiercely red against the ghostly white sky. The second sun followed it quickly, a pale yellow orb stopping halfway between the horizon and the first sun. The combined light shone gently on the green and blue landscape...
PREFACE This essay is long as it must be in order to be as comprehensive as possible. However, it is in sections for your reading convenience. The reason for it being so long is to present as many facts and evidence as possible, yet the subject is so huge as to preclude all facts and evidence, namely, that the bible is very much in error, and that it is pro...
Dusk had approached, when Rainer and Asmodea entered the palace. Rainer was tired from the day of exploring the city. Asmodea had told him that while this city may have been the capital of the Land of Lust, it was not the largest. Rainer had trouble believing that particular fact, though dismissed it until he saw the truth behind it himself. The palace is la...
Aureal and Rainer made it back two hours early. Rainer attempted to apologize to Caetorum for making him worry, though Caetorum dismissed it saying, "It is my fault for not paying attention. Mine and the fault of that vixen, Asmodea. A man of your stature should not find the need to apologize to me, young lord." Caetorum ushered Rainer and Aureal back to his...
You know that moment where you get so into something, let's say a book or a movie. You get so into it, you dream about it that night. That dream is the most surreal and realistic dream you've ever had, and then you wake up, realize it was a dream, and you get ready for the day. Well, Rainer is not having that moment right now. No dream or CG infested movie...
