The front door clicked closed as Ellen collapsed against it, exhausted and tired of the heavy air outside. The final two hours of her work day had stretched into meaningless eternity, made worse by the humid, thick blanket the weather was casting over the city, promising a storm any moment but never delivering the goods. All she needed now was to be alone an...
All characters are over 18. ***** When the "Fasten Seatbelts" indicator turned off, I jumped up immediately and pulled me backpack out of the overhead bin. The cute redhead I'd been seated next to looked up at me, the corners of her mouth curving up. "You look like you're in a hurry." I smiled back. "I haven't been home in a year. I can't wait to see e...
Dearest readers, I foolishly submitted chapter two incorrectly causing the file to be unreadable and therefore, reasonably rejected, and so it came to you late. That is simply unacceptable. You deserve better than that. You've given me your precious time, attention and feedback, and in return I've given you a late submission. Shame on me. I think some...
Chapter Five: Indulgence He looked down at the female in his arms. Charamaine, he thought, it suits her. When he asked her about her family he was happy to see that she had some, but it broke his heart to see her mourn… even if was over another male, and that fact alone made him hold back a snarl. However he was unable to hold back a small growl when...
I'm one of those guys who can't pull a date: Babes who don't know me don't want to go out with me and babes who do know me fob me off with the same excuse. It's pathetic, really but I get to watch a lot of TV which pleases my mom as she likes to have a shoulder to cry on when the hero chooses the slut over the really nice babe. Later in the movie I feel li...
I have no idea about transatlantic flights; Nor what US passport control is like, so bear with me if I've screwed up, they're not important to the story. --- Half an hour into the flight and I was bored. I'd seen the film on offer and had long ago found that I couldn't read whilst flying. I began to look around at the other passengers. My eye was drawn to...
This is an entry in the Valentine's Day Contest 2008 -- if you enjoy the story, please take a moment to cast your vote. * * * There was a sickening sound of screeching tyres followed by a dull thud. The ominous silence that followed sent ice-cold fear racing through Maddie's veins. Blindly she ran across the street, the gravely tarmac shredding her bare fe...
Hey, there! Thank you so much for you're encouraging feedback, it really motivates me! I'm sorry this took so long; Chapter 08 is almost done, so hopefully I can have it out to you guys soon. I hope my alternating use of Charamaine and May isn't confusing to you; I'm trying to incorporate a way to make sure it's all the same for the following chapters. Ther...
***Author's Note: Series contains strong elements of incest.*** 5 YEARS AGO Maddi's hand trembled as her knuckle banged against her mother's front door. She couldn't explain her nervousness and felt sick with an overwhelming urge to run back to her car. The nipping winter wind flipped Maddi's skirt over her hips. It allowed the bitter cold a chance to pier...
It had really been weeks, but it seemed like years ago I stood in a suburban backyard watching fireworks clinking champagne glasses together and hugging everyone present wishing everyone a Happy New Year. "Charli, 2020 is going to be your year, I know it!" I could still hear my best friend Maddi telling me this as we hugged on the warm January morning as h...
