Karen tells her story I never expected that I could spend so much on food and booze on one night out, cleaned out almost all of the cash I was carrying in my purse ... so many years since I had a night out on the town. A bunch of my best female friends – Jennifer, Michelle, Lisa, Amy, Angela, Melissa and Tracy – we all met as parents of kids when I enrolled...
I rubbed my eyes and then looked back at the tally of figures. Yep, just as bad as it looked. A bit shy of $152,000. My small company's money. Stolen, defrauded and embezzled...by my most trusted employee, our book keeper, Christina. I had discovered some discrepancies over a week earlier and had been digging and auditing the books and charge accounts ever...
The only sound was the rain swishing against the windscreen as Joe Taylor tooled the old Ford through the wet streets. His wife, Miranda sat beside him silently. They both were quietly contemplating the night ahead. Joe stole a glance over at her; he had never seen her dressed the way she was now and he felt the hackles rise on the back of his neck as he kne...
Author's note: As usual, the first chapters of my series are low in kinks as I prefer to work on character development first. Chapter 2 will definitely have more heat and more BDSM elements. Some nice things are coming. Hopefully you'll enjoy this first chapter. :) *** Chapter 1 - The first dollars I just broke up with my boyfriend. I loved him very much,...
Winding through the trees, the path leading into the forest is deep and dark. Her heart is racing as she follows the narrow, dark path. Clasping her cloak around her tight, taking a deep breath, she proceeds on, swallowing her fears. The night air gently moves her hair around her face in little whisps like the wings of a butterfly. The moonlight shines on h...
God bless middleclass Americans because no one else will. * The consequences of this recession, soon to be depression, living life as an American citizen, God, baseball, and apple pie are replaced by unemployment, homelessness, and despair. When God doesn't answer our prayers, when Americans can no longer afford to go to a baseball game, when apple pie is...
When Daniel woke up the next morning, it was to the sound of Bill knocking on his bedroom door and calling his name. Daniel tried to get up but his body screamed at him and he remembered very slowly why he could barely move. Quickly covering himself with a sheet on his bed, Daniel cleared his aching throat. "Come in." He croaked, wincing at how cracked and b...
You had promised me a night of passion for a new story I had written. Tonight, would be the night you paid your debt off. Little did you know the debt would be so difficult for you to pay. However, sometimes...debts can be fulfilling. Summer had come and gone and the nights were becoming a little colder. You were just finishing up your shower as I was ligh...

She hadn't seen either of them since before leaving for Faolchu. Despite her worry for her brother and friend however, Lisette couldn't stop her thoughts from drifting back to Torrin.
