My trust was broken as well as my world. The worst thing was that I hadn't suspected a thing. I had trusted Chris with my life. He had fathered my only child. Chris had had an affair. Although he claims it was a drunken one night stand with a hooker who was milling about outside a hotel where he was staying while out on work. In short - it was a terrible mis...
You're fast asleep and naked. The room is dark and a cool breeze is blowing in through the open window. I climb in silently, checking that I haven't waked you. I walk to the bottom of the bed and reach under the covers. I search for your feet, and I find them. I gently pull your foot nearer to the corner of the bed, you make a noise but don't wake up. I...
Author's note: I am shamelessly appropriating Razmagurk's concept in the "Girlfriend With Testing Device" series. The testing device itself, specifically. As well as the lack of awareness of the swap if the character isn't touching the device. It's one of the hottest ideas and implementations I've ever read. So I just thought about what it would be like if I...
Tanya woke up suddenly. Her whole body was covered in sweat. Her breath was fast and shallow, she felt like she had finished a marathon. She felt disoriented. She tapped her Samsung Galaxy S8+. It was 3:30am in the night. No notifications on Facebook or WhatsApp. A car whooshed by on the street. Who's out so late she wondered. Her husband, Jimmy was sleepi...
Your long red locks of fiery red hair flow behind you as you skip along the rooftops above the bustling streets below, the glow of neon, and roaring sounds of the crowds below mask your movements along the roofs. It's only a small distance to the ground where the people are gathered, taken in by the signs and sounds, the smells of the spiced foods. Yup, you...
About a year ago, I met this guy Tyrell. Due to the wonderful powers of the internet and myspace, he sent me a couple messages, and since we worked in similar businesses, I figured there was no harm in continuing to talk to him. We'd exchange the occasional message every few weeks, and keep saying that we should meet up and swap business cards since he's a m...
**~~Authors note: Still pretty new at this, so comments and constructive criticism are definitely welcome. Thanks for reading!~~** ***** Jane was snuggled comfortably into the corner of the couch, curled up around Rob under the cushy blue blanket Celia had offered them. Celia and Lee, Celia's boyfriend, were similarly snuggled on the other end of the couch...
Up to a point some of this is true. The setting and the girl were real, everything after the concert is fantasy (unfortunately). An older story. **** I can't say that I noticed her particularly to start with; she was just one of the girls who came out to mark the grid positions. After three or four races I realised that each girl always marked the same gr...
"You mean you can actually make it happen?" Conner's voice rose enthusiastically. "I mean, I've thought about it for years; we both have. But I never dreamed that we'd have the chance to make it a reality." Aiesha looked at him coolly, the wisps of smoke from the cigarette she held in front of her face giving her a somewhat ethereal appearance in the dimly...
There, amongst the remnants of the dead race, where their greatest queen reigned, two dragons lie dormant. One of pure evil, one of pure good, both yearning for a vessel, both lusting for a mate... She may be adequate for that purpose, our forlorn child... We shall see. "Silence, fools. We are close to the inner sanctum." The two mercenaries exch...
