Daylight filtered through the window, rousing Enn. Yawning, the demoness stretched her arms. "Mary...?" "Yes?" Mary replied from the base of the bed. "What are you doing?" Enn asked. "I'm keeping my strength up," Mary answered in mid-push-up. "A knight must stay strong." "Cool," Enn replied, yawning again. "I'm gonna go back to sleep." "Oh, no you're n...
The young mage sat by the campfire in her thin, white shift running her fingers over the intricate words in her spell book. The night air was crisp and tossed the long blonde hair that draped over her shoulders. The routine was calming to her. She found that it helped her mind release the haunting images she carried within her. She mumbled a word and delicat...
This must be the place: Well at least that's what I think when I see the two guards standing outside the club's door. They are quiet, cold, and unmoving as they stare straight ahead from behind their jet black sunglasses. But these bouncers are not human: They are vampires. I try to swallow back the dryness in my throat. Come on girl, get yourself together...
The sparrows of Thailand are like sparrows anywhere: small, gray, and flitting... but surrounded by blue parrots, iguanas, and infinite neon butterflies. They hang around the restaurants and "steal" scraps of food. I remember happily watching one make off with a bit of fresh spinach once. I believe sparrows are only native to the British Isles and spread as...
The Vatican had not seen this much activity since the Templar's had been purged in that unfortunate incident several centuries ago involving a relic they never should have found.

I had been dead three years when I pretended not to notice the man drop a pill into my white wine, but that didn't stop him from trying. It hadn't stopped the other six hundred and sixty five men who were intent on courting me in this bizarre and ungentlemanly manner and it wouldn't stop the next man or the next. My afterlife was an endless cycle of man afte...
"Hell's bells Holly, why would your supreme commander call us all the way out here to see her?" A pothole taken at high speed sent a jolt through the car. "Watch the road, dummy. I don't know, Ben. Several things come to mind, but this is the first time she's asked me to bring you. Probably shouldn't jump to conclusions." Father Ben and Sister Holly were d...
Chapter 4: Lake Interlude Kennice had followed her mother upstairs and down the long hallway toward the training room. Although Elizabeth said nothing, Kennice could still feel her mother's anger and it buffeted against her. She couldn't help her attraction to the newcomer. It was, well like her soul knew his but if she said those words her mother would def...
Author's note: I wrote this in a kind of high style, a bit different from my first few stories. If it seems a bit too mythical, or over the top, or out of character, or whatever, it's because I believe that characters like Morgaine Le Fay deserve a little more respect. After all, they've been around for hundreds of years. Hope you enjoy it. * She stands, a...
Author's Note: A Drow's Dilemma began as a one-on-one roleplaying project and has been converted into a chapter-by-chapter format for weekly posting with the permission and assistance from my partner. It will contain a considerable amount of sexual themes such as femdom, lesbian, straight, 'reverse' rape, BDSM, group sex, romance, and other themes. The mai...
