I called in the afternoon to see when we could get together that night, but he wasn't there. I left a message. It struck me as curious, but I had enough work to keep me busy that I didn't give it much thought. I called that night and left a message. I couldn't imagine where he could be, but I had countless pages in front of me and speculating on his whereab...
The first length of soft-cotton rope binds my wrists together, and secures them to the headboard of our new brass bed. The second, draws my right ankle to the far corner of the footboard. The last, draws my left ankle to the near corner. A neatly folded silk scarf robs me of my sight. I am on my back: naked, and open. Completely at Aaron's mercy . . . How d...
"I really have to go to the toilet," said Anna to the driver of their coach. "How far is it to the village?" "Well with these snowed over roads in rural Transylvania and the hills we have to cross I assume at least 20 minutes. The road here scares me. Potholes, bends and a lot of snow. Can you hold it that long?" "Ah driver, our tourguide is the only one u...
"Kate?" Ragnar murmured, into the quiet of the evening. "Mmmm?" Kate replied, snuggling deeper into the warmth of Ragnar's chest, relishing the feel of his hard body so close to hers. She would never grow sick of cuddling this man. "Can you turn over for a bit? The baby is kicking me relentlessly." Ragnar said apologetically, he didn't want to disturb her,...

"Remember Cal, Eleanor's mine, you kill anyone who tries to come after us, stay in the woods." Domhnall spoke, the venom barely concealed. Eleanor was going to pay for not being in th...
6 Months later Ava steadied herself against the railing of the solid galleon. She was still adjusting to the motion on the seas. Having travelled on ships to the West Indies before, it was not entirely new to her, but this was an extraordinary voyage. It still didn't seem real either. She was out on a real ship, an adventure to new lands, but still confin...
The slow seductive pitch of Black Velvet filled the Club as Noelle's heart beat out the same steady rhythm. She thought the height difference would make them look like an odd couple on the floor but somehow it all worked out. She never danced to anything like this, but with him she felt compelled to show some sex appeal. She slowly worked her body against hi...
(Author's note– sorry this took so long college got busy- but I'm done for the year so Chs. Should be coming a lot faster now- if you guys want me to keep going please let me know- not sure my readers are still with me) * Noelle wrapped a towel around her freshly washed frame before stepping back into her room. She smiled to herself for thinking of the pea...
No, it couldn't be. Nick was dead, wasn't he? Allison stared at his face, though the face before her was rugged and very manly, she could see a hint of the boy she used to know, now that she was looking for it. "Nicky?" she said hesitantly. Nick, who was now turning down the covers on the bed, his back to her, snapped to attention immediately. He spun arou...
Allison sat next to Nick in stony silence, eating her supper. He made sure she got the best of what cook had to offer, but she clearly didn't appreciate it as she shoveled food down her throat.
