"Whew! I hope this is worth it." But, of course he knew it would be worth it. It was just the time spent in the car showing its wear. But the end was near. He could feel it as he aimed his car along the twisting Virginia mountain road. Fall in the hills was always special to him with the brilliant yellows, oranges and reds layered across the mountainside li...
The story is set in the south of France. Part I has already been published on this site as "Vineyard Adventures". My father and I were turning bottles of wine in their racks in the vineyard's cellar. He said to me, "I'm glad Martine is becoming more at ease around you, Pierre." I glanced at him, wondering if there was any hidden meaning in his statement,...
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Thanks for the comments and for reading! I'm glad people are enjoying it. Happy comments make me all warm and fuzzy inside. hehe I also wanted to mention that Hiliad uses the term slave with Connee even though she is not his slave/sub. He only uses the word at certain times because he knows she was Daniel's slave, and he knows she responds t...
Tony walked back into his classroom at the end of the day ready to go home for a nice quiet evening at home. He sat down at his desk and saw a large red envelope with his name on the front. He though it must be from one of the children he has in his classroom. Lifting up the envelope the soft floral jasmine fragrance fills the air. He suddenly feels a funn...
Perry and Ann listened to Mary's tale and both could not believe how she managed to get into such a predicament. Ann didn't believe that Susan wasn't involved in a detrimental way and started to understand how manipulative Susan can be.

She was quickly being dragged deep under the ground by what had looked like a giant ant, around the size of a large dog. She was doing a survey of one of the forested areas around the colony, looking for places that the...
Author's note: Tofino is the second instalment in the Narrative series. Each piece - limited to less than 5,000 words - recounts a different real-life event. Nothing has been embellished: things unfold very much as they were experienced. Names have been changed, however, for all the obvious reasons. Also - a word of caution: this piece is a slow burn - as...
She swore again and checked her phone for what felt like the hundredth time. Still no more battery than the last time she had checked. Kicking the tyre of her stationery car she rummaged in her bag for her packet of cigarettes and lighter. Inhaling deeply she looked up and down the deserted road and cursed her mum and step-dad for moving her to such a god fo...
Writer's Note: This is a story for adults over eighteen years of age about adults over eighteen years of age. While the story line is true the dialog has been compressed for the sake of time and space. Safe sex was not an issue in the early sixties and seventies, but should be a concern for everyone today. ***** Mrs. K was one of my married lawn customers...
"You lost the bet, Jer" Carlos said while putting his flat hand over my fist. "Paper beats rock." I frowned, feeling somewhat defeated by my coworker and weekend warrior equivalent. We'd become good friends the past two years. I headed the firm's creative department and Carlos was a media sales head. We were two departmental lions meeting at the watering ho...
