It was in the evening, almost a week after her infection, when Mother finally came out of her room. I had been out and about all afternoon, buying groceries and other needful things, and got home probably about 7 or so. Right about sunset. A sunburst of pale pink stretched across the sky, and pale stars were already peeking out of a canvas of deep purple. Th...
I live in Manhattan, New York City -- in a towering skyscraper-apartment. There are more people in my building than in some towns. We're all piled up on top of each other, one floor after another, forty-five stories tall, some staying for a few months, others for years, in a community of our own. Living in a building like this -- in New York City - is dif...
Brandy's bathroom light went on at 9:30. I pushed away from the computer screen and took my place in the chair by the window. I made sure that the chair was back from the streetlights that bleed through my third floor window. I also made sure that the chair was a comfortable one, for I would often sit and watch Brandy for hours. Brandy wasn't her real name....
The house seems pleasantly warm and inviting as I lead you silently in through the front door. I turn to glance at you for just a moment, your eyes move steadily, taking in the new surroundings; examining every nuance of this place that holds my life. Carefully I take off my rain-soaked jacket and hang it over the chair in the hall, shivering as my body adju...
Over the years, I have made love with women of all races and ethnicities, and all the women have their own individual outstanding qualities. In the case of Angelica, it is her ass. She is Hispanic, with light brown skin, black eyes and hair, a snub nose and a generous mouth that always seems to be smiling. I enjoy kissing her all over her pretty face. Angeli...
Nell strode down the corridor, lighting the way before her with a small, shuttered lamp. It was dark, long past midnight, and the town around her seemed to be asleep. But she knew better. She could feel wakefulness pulsing in the darkness around her. Wakefulness, and desire. In the town of Allbarone, magecraft was common. No one knew why power seemed to col...
Sarah stepped closer to the bar as Tom waved a bartender close. He continued staring at her, his eyes still grinning, as he ordered two superfluous cocktails for the both of them. Sarah turned and pressed her back against the bar's edge, casting a directionless gaze into the crowd and pointedly ignoring Tom. She could feel his eyes still on her as she fidget...
As the evening drew to a natural end and the two diners gathered their coats and made their way to the car park. "Thank you for a lovely evening" Michelle said trying to break the quiet and increasingly awkward silence. "No thank you for such delightful company" Neil answered forlornly whilst trying to smile politely. Neil opened the passenger door and Mic...
Asta bit her lip and looked around the empty chamber. The throne in front of her, the bare stone walls, all covered with the dust of countless ages past. She frowned. Maybe she would die here. Not that gods died, not truly, she herself was proof of that - dormant for centuries upon centuries until the right disciple came along. But that was it, gods were fu...
Seliphi coiled her long body, crouching low to the ground, the golden scales of her tail catching the light of the sun in the arena like a layer of shining coins. She paused for a moment, a bead of sweat trickling down her cheek as she calculated the height of the jump. She bounded upwards, launching herself into the air like a giant spring. She soared, clea...
