Mina ran through the woods, tears streaming down her cheeks after her parents told her what her fate was...
"Alexis?" "Jared." She stared for a second before a startled laugh bubbled out and she clamped a hand over her mouth. "Are you really standing here right now?" Jared's face relaxed into a grin and he shook his head. "To be honest, I don't know if I'm dreaming or not." Alexis felt her stomach flip at his words. She dropped her hands. "I don't believe this....
Adventuring wasn't something Mina ever planned on in her life. At best, she'd expected to be foraging in the forest, maybe wander a little too far off the beaten path, instead she was three days from home. Thing had gone well as she'd hoped. No bandits attacked her, nor did any animals steal her food in the night, and Jackson was a true gentleman of a horse....

"You told your dad you were going to quit," Mina Jordan said crossing her arms over her chest. She was eighteen, but still had a look of innocence. Her dark brown eyes were large and framed with thick black eyelashes. Her lips were plump and almost always smiling. She kept her black hair pulled away from her face in a simple ponytail that fell to the middle...
Umi swung open the gate to her front yard, stepped through, and closed it behind her. She skipped her way up the path and opened the front door. She jumped through, landing inside with a thud. "Welcome home, Umi." Mina came out of the kitchen, surprised by the noise. "Hi, mom!" Umi said, excited. "Oh my, did you have a good day?" Umi nodded. "Yeah, it...
"That's great, but Dale, I needed twelve dozen, not one." Mina Pickett groaned in frustration. "Fine, fine, but get them here as soon as you can. It's almost Halloween." "Problems?" A masculine voice questioned. "Only a few. Dale only sent twelve pumpkins, instead of twelve dozen, Johanna quit, and Clara is up to her old tricks again." Mina put her face i...
I was a bit nervous about moving out-of-state after finishing my Masters degree in computer science, but the offer I got to work in IT and software development with an insurance company in California was just too good to pass up. I wasn't the most outgoing person, so I was a bit worried about making social connections in a new city. I wasn't ugly or unlikabl...
