CHAPTER 7 My time as a wife with three husbands did not last as long as I expected. We were visited by some students from the Agricultural College because of our rare breeds and farming practice within a national park. This included a young woman called Mabel. She and Bart somehow clicked, and she visited during vacations for a sort of working holiday. Nat...
Simon rang the door bell, prompt at 2 pm, somewhere between nervous and excited and wondered quite how he had reached this point. He had met Sally in, of all places, a crowded cafe at King's Cross when all the trains were late. She'd pulled up a stool next to him , asked if it was okay to sit and started chatting. She was so easy to talk to, middle aged, n...
Mr. St. Franklin was a difficult man to be friends with. He viewed all others in order of their usefulness to him. Yet, Mr. St. Franklin, defying all odds, had a friend. He was Bob, who was without a doubt the nicest man in the twelve western states (as well as a grand swath of western Canada). Bob and Mr. St. Franklin had known each other since childhood....
The Eiffel Tower tonight glowed with the same reverence as the angled streams of morning light had done. The sunlight, with its motes drifting, fell onto the ancient stone floors of the Notre Dame Cathedral. There in that light, Leona heard the echoes of history's steps, she'd felt the love and tears of weddings and funerals and the heavyweight of two corona...
Note: this is my first story. The first in a series of gender-distinction free stories which takes place in a world emerged from my imagination and my desires. In this story I use the pronouns Ze and Hir because I find them appropriate about my characters: the perfectly non-binary population of my world. If you have problems with this topic, don't read furth...
Joe was feeling lucky. He had $400 to drop at any casino table of his choice. The colorful lights inside the casino blinked and spun and lit up the entire floor. The bells of the video poker machines chimed. He stopped at a poker machine, and on the first try he won $5. On the second, $10. A beautiful blonde holding a serving tray approached him. "Good eve...
The other day I was working, drawing up a house plan for a client, when the phone rang around 10 am. It was my friend Teresa, she's a cute 50 year old at about 5'-8" well proportioned with 38DDD tits, she asked what I was doing. I told her then she said she had the day off and wanted to know if I was interested in coming over to see their remodeled master be...
Since Mark was a kid he dreamt about being a hero. He wanted to be someone who did the job on his own. He wanted to be the macho just like his hero The Jaguar Man. He was the proudest man about himself. Having been grown up in an orphanage after his parents were both killed by a robber, he knew best that no kid deserved to lose his family. That's the reason...
Sadie was Holden's friend. His very cute, bubbly friend who'd been sleeping around since her breakup. Not sure if you're serious or not , he texts back. The conversation he's in, along with the fact he just had his evening coffee, has his hands trembling more than normal. He huffs to himself and closes the piano. So much for early practice. He rests his...
The invitation for the party was "Riverside Blowout! Redneck theme!" There were dozens of us there, on a hot day in the early summer. Most of us were wearing as little as we could, while still keeping in theme. Several people were blasting Johnny Cash or Willie Nelson. Some people brought floats and were lazily floating downriver, beer in hand. There was a v...
