Teri's eyes focused on the alarm clock... 0630 hours. She didn't know how she got here. Her hand touched a warm spot and memory flowed in. "Nancy!" Teri called. "Just a second," Nancy's voice called from the bathroom. "When did you come to bed?" "I don't remember how I got to bed." Teri replied sheepishly. "Then we both slept the sleep of the dead." Nancy...
It was the end of my Junior year at Princeton University. I had made only a few friends in those years. The University of course was full of the best and brightest from around the world. An Oklahoma farmboy myself, somehow I felt substandard to the group dynamics. I was a biology major and while I continued to get excellent grades, it was not without endle...
Sadness still over came her as she started to erase the board from the day's lesson. It had been over three months since her husband served her with divorce papers, but Laura still felt the sting of deceit. She thought he was in love with her...but one day she walked in on her husband with his ex-girlfriend in their bed. Then all through the divorce he kept...
I arrived late, as was becoming more my custom recently. It amazed me how comfortable I had become with me, not needing to be in the center of everything. The calm, the quiet sense of self had definitely grown on me in the past few years. Looking in the mirror before getting out of the car I could see the difference. The light wisps of grey hair around the...
Sharlet the cook wiped her plump hands on her apron and smiled at the tall man who stood waiting at the hatch. "Good morning, Ruan!" she beamed. "And what would you like to eat today?" Ruan flicked a lock of black hair from his brow and bowed in greeting. "Good day to you, Mistress Sharlet. I am hoping you might have some fresh prawns for sale." The cook...

The chief says there have been some disappearances of girls from there and although the girls show up eventually, claiming to have run away...he thinks there is somet...
The name's Jack Wayne. I'm a private detective. It all began on a sweltering Friday in June. I was sitting behind my desk thumbing through a paperback of "9 & 1/2 Weeks" and sipping a glass of bourbon when my secretary stuck her head into the office. "Hey, Jack." she said in an annoying tone. "Jack, put the book down for a minute!" "What is it with you?"...
Hey guys! So here is chapter 8... I gotta say I got sucked into this one. I was researching away and found the most moving images and it kinda just moved me to write. If you're interested in seeing those images, let me know and I'll post a link in a comment. And chapter 8 got to be so long that I decided to break it up into 2 chapters. So I'm finishing up...
It was the start of another academic year. I had been teaching the upper division courses but was asked to teach a College Algebra Class for this term. I was looking forward to doing so as I had heard how ill prepared the students were. Most of the incoming students must take remedial course work due to their low understanding of mathematics at the major uni...
It's never a good idea to keep pornography on your personal computer. And it's definitely a potential disaster if you have a tendency to leave yourself logged in when you get called away from your computer. Trust me, I know. I did both, naively, and it irrevocably changed my marriage. For better or worse? I haven't yet made up my mind. I'm 25, recently out...
