Gourmet Love

by Decayed Angel on Sep 16, 2017
Romance

Jill quickly finished up her makeup and carefully pulled on her lace blouse, buttoning it up slowly, as she imagined what the night would be like. She was anxious to get over to Eric's house, where he was preparing a candlelight dinner for just the two of them. Once she finished buttoning the blouse, she checked it in the mirror, deciding to unbutton one ext...

Romantic Conference Pt. 01

by bigbradp on Sep 15, 2017
Romance

After a half hour lost on back roads they were both starving and happy to find the restaurant everyone at the conference had been raving about. Of course, at his point, they both would have probably settled for a cafeteria pizza. "I'm SO glad we finally made it", Ryan said. "I know I'd eat anything. Hopefully they have SOMEthing left on the menu. Jonah said...

Never in a Million Years

Romance

I'm no angel. I know it. I'm not proud of it. I feel shame and guilt, but like most rational people who have genuine needs that go unmet, I sometimes choose to take a shadowy path to temporarily quell the yearnings for touch, desire and passion. This is a true story about one such choice that I still don't believe actually happened. Back when Craigslist...

The Gondolier Kept Singing

Erotic Couplings

Alfredo had promised her that the gondola ride would be the most romantic experience of her life and he had been right. Rosalyn listened to the singing of the Gondolier as she straightened out her skirt. He had been singing (opera, she supposed) from the very start. Not even a pause as she and Alfredo had made love. To be sure, his singing had gotten louder...

It Started on a Train

Romance

I'd like to start off by saying this is entirely Jezz Az's fault. He noted that the bare minimum number of words that can be posted to Literotica is 750 words, so he asked "what can you do with exactly 750 words? Not one word more, not one word less?" It's a good question and a number of writers have decided to tackle it. This is decidedly outside my typical...

What is Sexy?

Reviews & Essays

I recently read an article in the March-April 2005 issue of UTNE magazine, a liberal contemporary philosophical publication. Each month this small, hippiesque read highlights a particular issue and recycles articles from other publications for its readers. This month took a deeper look at religion, faith and the modern onset of feminist spirituality. Unbekno...

Better Than Popcorn

Exhibitionist & Voyeur

I was totally bummed out. Here I had thought it was going to be a romantic evening, and then you decided that we would have dinner in a noisy, crowded sports bar and then go to some stupid action movie you had heard about at work. But, I thought, you are usually so good to me that I guess that I can wait for the intimate romantic dinner that I hoped for....

Breaking Dawn

by PrincessErin on Sep 16, 2017
Reviews & Essays

I felt the need and the requirement to read the last novel in the Twilight saga. It is a set of four books so not really a trilogy. The word 'saga', as it has been referred to is quite an appropriate word. I realized as I finished the last novel that I had read over three thousand pages of a very simplistic and stereotypical story. In doing research on this...

"Dark Shadows," Soap-Horror

by DeniseNoe on Sep 16, 2017
Reviews & Essays

"Dark Shadows": The Soap Opera, the Horror Show The original "Dark Shadows" was a unique TV phenomenon. A horror show in a soap opera format, the program was a marriage of as seemingly disparate genres as could be imagined. The reasons the bizarre show succeeded, and how it expanded the horizons of both horror and soap opera, are the subject of this essay....

What Really Is Cheating?

by SEVERUSMAX on Sep 16, 2017
Reviews & Essays

I have read and heard all kinds of comments about what constitutes cheating or, as it is called by some, infidelity. As someone with an open relationship, I regard myself as being impartial enough to make an unbiased and rational judgment about such things. I am not affected by the definitions of cheating and other forms of betrayal unique to monogamous rela...
