I went through a whirlwind romance with Alex, married him after three months and moved away from my home of 23 years so he could pursue his riches. We struggled together for several years before we reached a quasi state of economic stability. We were able to buy our first home and settle down. A few months later he moved in with a big corporation and starte...
Getting in Touch with Your Masculine Side LUCIFER Rachel, God and I were sitting naked in a hot tub, enjoying the scenery the underworld had to offer. I felt guilty about putting the poor mortal through emotional trauma when I tempted her with an eternal sibling romance, so I decided a spa day would be nice before her next test. I couldn't help but let my...
Chapter Fourteen They arrived at Tenerife South-Reina Sofia Airport late afternoon and by the evening had booked into their suite of rooms in Los Cristianos. The following day they hired a car and drove around the area familiarising themselves with their location as James had told them the area the terrorists used in the other dimension. The terrorists were...
Celine watched the Void Springer, an ugly nearly ramshackle thing of a spaceship, slowly and masterfully land onto one of numerous platforms designed for such landings that span the Vaem tower. She was utterly disgusted by the boxy exterior and its obvious lack of maintenance. How that thing had saved Mother was beyond her but she was nonetheless grateful f...
Chapter One Michael and Amelia approached the Throne of Heaven with trepidation in their steps. Despite being archangels charged with the operations and defense of Heaven, the news they brought had them nervously glancing at one another as they reached the first steps leading to the dais. "My children," the strong, kindly voice of the Lord coaxed them from...

I make sure to further sedate her, in case the drugs have worn off in the meantime. There is the brief worry that I might give her too much, but then I rem...
I stand transfixed by the scene unfolding across the street. A tall prostitute has left her window booth, prompted by a Dutch tourist with a rental bike. He's asking for directions to the Rijksmuseum, and the woman is showing him the way on a large map unfolded on top of the bike's handlebars. She's leaning forward, pointing out the shortest route among the...
The next morning Isabelle was up before dawn. She slid from Alasdair's arms as quietly as she could and padded to the washroom. When she came out a few minutes later the doors to the balcony were open and Alasdair was outside. She went out to join him in the cool morning air. "Did I wake you?" she asked softly. He reached out to take her hand and pulled her...
June 3rd 1885 Somewhere above The Stonewall Mountains If there was a sound more appropriate for calculating the lifting capacity of an ellipsoid roughly eight hundred feet in length than the music from a string quartet, I was not sure what it might be. I scratched away with a ballpoint pen I had purchased in Caladon from its inventor. He had gone on at l...
The girls at the office went nuts over our engagement. One of the older ladies told Kat she must be something else for me to let my guard down and ask her to marry. She told her how hurt and devastated I had been when I discovered Helen's infidelity. How she thought I would never trust again, just keep using women for my own needs. Kat smiled at Louise. "We...
