I took another sip from my Red Stripe to steady myself. My buddies were practically shoving me in her direction. "Okay, Okay," I yelled over the bass of the pulsating dancehall as I shrugged Dave's hand off my shoulder. They were right, of course. I should have already gone over to talk to her. I had been staring at her for the last hour. She was pretty,...
I was lying on my bed and struggling not to bite my nails. What had been such a wonderful evening, such an exciting journey down the rabbit hole, had suddenly turned sour and into an emotional nightmare. I wanted to sob in desperation, to shout and throw things against the wall, because I was filled with a rage that was targeted at myself. I had let myself g...
Alicia tried to ignore the harsh knock on the door, but Charles could do no such thing - it was his shop, after all. He quickly pulled on his pants and went to answer the door, while Alicia, still naked, covered up in a semi-dark corner, hoping she would not be discovered. The impatient customer was a lamia, and as she slithered in, Alicia realized she know...
Jasmine 's troubled conscience would not allow her to rest, which was why she was still sitting at the dinner table after she was finished. She and Luke were married, there was no escaping that fact. It was up to them to make this work, and being honest with each other would help a lot, she was sure of that. "Luke I would like to talk to you." Jasmine said...
It was a hot sunny afternoon while I waited on the back deck for Molly to arrive. I had already packed the car with my tent, several comforters and blankets, the cooler, a gym bag full of clothes and toiletries and things. Today I was going to take her on our first vacation together. We would be heading down to the outer banks of North Carolina, a place I ha...
Chapter One Acquisition The countess reread the letter as she sat in the trundling carriage. She was impeccable. Not a strand of her dark red hair was errant, not a speck of powder in the wrong place. Her deeply colored satin dress was folded and draped precisely where folds or drapes were required. Her nails were each filed to pinpoint sharpness, capable...
He was the perfect gentleman. I'd been working at Junior's, an old fashioned ice cream parlor in the tourist trap part of town known as The Riverside for a couple of months. He came in at least once a week, had a single scoop of chocolate ice cream and always he made me laugh. His name was Craig. I'd guess his age at about 50. He looked his age, but in all...
Chapter Eleven: Engaged and Flying Home to Reveal All. I wake up and roll over to see beside me the gal I love, Kerri. A most fantastic evening with Kerri. I move and kiss her on her shoulder and she wakes up, smiles and says, "Good morning babe." I kiss her shoulder again and say, "Good morning Hun." Kerri rolls and we lay heads on hands, face to face...
"I knew you would, baby. I knew you'd be my perfect little toy the moment you said you subbed. My perfect, pretty, nasty little slut toy. All mine." Her tone said everything about her. Eve knew from their conversations that Alyson was controlling, strict, and relentless. But now she was beginning to understand that the older woman was also possessive, jealou...
I was in for it, I knew. Joshua was going on a "business trip" to Atlanta, which meant he was going to have drinks and steak and play golf with some rich pigs and probably hire an escort to take care of him while he was away from me. That's what had happened the last time; I knew because he told me. After the girl left, Josh had called me up and told me how...
