Room 4, Rin's Travel Agency, Macalania Raine felt far away. Auron's exhilaration was laced with dread as he cinched his arms a little tighter around Raine, attempting to lure her into the present, but she was blankly preoccupied. An uneasy silence thickened before his organ had completely drained and he tucked it away. Quickly. Rigidly unraveling from...
Here's how I once changed the entire outlook on sex for a workmate, after his divorce, with the help of an "Old Maid." Working night-shifts on security was boring as hell, sometimes. It was okay when there was trouble to deal with, but most nights were spent sitting around the guardhouse trying to pass the time. One of the other guards I got along with - a...
Jaycee brought the steaming mug to her lips. "That's right, Angel," she encouraged her daughter, who was putting one of their new ponies through its paces with Hector's assistance. The man never more than arms length from her daughter, just in case. She smiled at the seemingly simple accomplishment, but for a child with uncontrolled seizures nothing was simp...
Drake House, Zanarkand Auron had a perfect view of Raine's wedding from the roof of the garage, but his sunglasses were level with the ocean, scanning white-capped shores. The air's substantial gravity was oppressive and charged, like an approaching storm, minus the visual cues of thunder clouds and distant flares of lightning, and he was feeling a little...
Rex guided Jaycee towards the truck and horse trailer where Hector was already working to soothe the excited animals with small pieces of apple and carrot. Her silence and acquiescence were as worrisome as her thoughts. His Jaycee was anything but quiet and docile. She was the most beautiful mustang filly running free across the rough terrain of the Hill Cou...

"Come, Kady." Dr. Rivera beckoned me into his empty classroom. The overhead lights were off; the only light was the yellow glow of the green desk lamp from his desk. I almost lost my nerve but entered and closed the door behind me. It was only four and Dr. Rivera's art history class didn't start until six. I was overcommitted and failing. I'd tried to drop...
It was a nice clear sunny day on the Costa Blanca in Spain. There were in fact no clouds in the sky at all which was surprising for the month of October. There was a little breeze but it was quite warm, increasing to hot when the wind dropped down to still. The old style Spanish house, or finca, stood on a slope facing south, with a panoramic view over the...
The man stood naked among the low trees that covered the rolling hills around him. He wore only a tan and white buckskin thrown loosely about his broad shoulders. His gray-green eyes followed the dozen or so mustangs that raced and played in the soft glow of the early morning sun. His heart beat in time with theirs. "Rex, my son," said the gravelly voice be...
It was almost lunch time when Rex arrived back at the ASPCA offices. He read through the half a dozen messages that waited in his inbox and cursed under his breath when he recognized his boss's signature on the last one. Tim Masters wanted to see him in his office the moment he got back. He sighed and headed to the large office at the end of the hallway. No...
