Ben and I continued to see each other when we could. But as with a lot of relationships, things began to become routine. I needed some excitement in my life. I found the opportunity when I was called into my bosses office. He told me that I had to go visit a supplier for our company. He needed me to go asap. That night if possible. I told him that I could, a...
My name is Cheryl and I'm married to a good man. His name is Bob and he's an accountant. Okay, that's not the most exciting thing you've heard? He isn't a buff construction worker named Blake or Dirk who works the high steel. He isn't a Navy Seal named Ace or Hunter who runs off on secret life-or-death missions. He's a married man and father of two, who come...
Fucking Deadlines! I had been working on this project since William assigned it to me two months ago and had made only marginal headway and the due date was three weeks away. I work from home; less distractions than the normal office setting, and it allows me the opportunity to work odd hours when inspiration strikes. This morning, William called. "How is...
At first Gordy thought he was in job hell. The lingerie business leader, Maidenform, bought his local garment manufacturing company, Curtain Call, scooping up the struggling ballet costume manufacturer. Now he was just an acquired employee where he was a top programmer at a remote facility and his skills were of questionable value. Why had he ever taken a jo...
I used to write these on Tumblr, now on Fetlife, so I have a few to post quickly, then I'll be adding new ones as I write them * Walking up the drive from work, I put the key in the door and pulled the post from the inside of the door. It had been a long day, but it was finally the weekend and I was ready to relax. I always got home before my wife, Katie,...
The rain caught Laurie unprepared. When she entered the corner deli the sky was blue and speckled with benign white clouds. By the time she'd finished her lunch, dark grey clouds hung heavy and ominous overhead. She walked as quickly as she could in her impractically high-heeled sandals, desperate clacking marking her progress along the sidewalk. The trees s...
I always remember thinking how bland men's underwear was compared to women's. In the animal kingdom, the male usually has the prettiest colors. Not so in people. I suppose traditionally, men's underwear is supposed to be functional while women's are fashionable. I was a late maturing kid. I was probably about two years behind some of my classmates. When I d...
This is my very first submission, long time reader - first time author. I have no doubt comments will come thick and fast suggesting the husband is a wimp, slut-shaming the wife, or similar. Whatever! For those that like the genre, I hope you like the story! I enjoyed writing it. Huge thanks to Stormkite for the editorial assistance. I can't thank you enoug...
This is a work of fiction. All persons are intended to be age 18 and above. *** I don't know why I started watching him. I mean, sure, he was a good-looking guy for somebody his age, which I guess was early to mid-30s. It was much too obvious that he was married, unless that mousy little thing attached to his arm was a girlfriend, or, dare I hoped, an ins...
The party had been winding down and honestly, I was getting bored. All the interesting people had moved on to the bars and only a few of my roommate's burnout hanger on buddies were still littering our living room. The music choices had gone south with this group too so I decided the record player on my nightstand and the joint in my drawer I rolled earlier...
