**** This story takes place amid the gathering clouds of the period leading up to the War of 1812-14 and a little beyond that, ending about 1815, though this won't encompass all of that. I'll only focus on a few individuals and events. I've tried hard to get it right, but I can't guarantee anything. Some of the characters lived at the time, and as far as t...
Please vote. Please give me the support of your vote. * Unable to let her go, love at first sight and lost, Robert remembers Emma. As if he was being sentenced to death, about to be executed, and the man standing before him was his executioner, Robert stared through the priest as if he was the Grim Reaper. "If anyone objects to this marriage, let them sp...
The characters in this story are property of Marvel comics. I have used them in honor of the comic series and admiration for the characters. This story is original and is in no way tied to any of the canons of the Marvel Universe (to save myself the grief of working with time lines). This story contains adult material of a sexual nature. If it is illegal for...
Darkness. "It's all my fault," the voice her childlike version said, looking at happy memories of a father that was no more. "I could have saved him," the voice of her adult version agreed. "Had he only listened to me." "I could have saved him," the voice of her current version spat out. "If only I had killed them all like the ruthless dogs they were." D...
My thanks and more to Prosecutor M. who not only edited this work but was the inspiration for it as well. She knows who she is... "Open file, case number 10212." Sitting at my desk I watched as a hologram appeared showing me a man, approximately forty years of age, his brown hair worn unfashionably long, his blue eyes warm though he seemed to look away rath...
***The rest of the day like no other for lovely Yasmin. Oh, and a little more of Dakhete's back-story too. 0_o ---------------- "What was that?" Yasmin asked as they walked the dusty road to the dead city, "What just happened there? Where did all of those people come from?" She stopped and Dakhete continued on a step or two before she stopped to look back...
Jonathan and Rita had first crossed paths over the internet; a gaming site both favored providing the introduction. They shared a love of writing, of words and they exchanged tales, stories all which finally led to their meeting. He traveled to her for the first time, a stranger in a strange land but the lady who greeted him upon his arrival made him feel a...
He had her for the entire night. She was there for him and for him only. While yes, she behaved very well for a majority of the period, her one violation nullified everything and brought on this punishment. In reality, she had known better. But her lust was too great. She couldn't resist it. She couldn't resist the promise of satisfaction. Granted, he knew...
Beth, are you having an affair with Alex Pressman? I could see her recoil as I mentioned his name. Doubt, concern and fear spread across her face but no denial. Shit, I shouted. Her face and actions had given her away. I wanted to scream at her only, only I had no voice. I wanted to hurt her, only I knew I could never intentionally hurt her. Anger surged...
Jimmy O'Rourke sat on the living room couch as he and his parents watched the movie of the week. It was a hot summer night and the O'Rourke's apartment didn't have air conditioning. The outdated wiring of the old Brooklyn apartment house just couldn't handle the load. Instead the 16 year old had to settle for sitting around in his gym shorts and trying to co...
