I first set eyes on her one morning as I was looking out of my 3rd floor apartment window. My name is James, you may remember me? I have been living here since leaving Sarah, my former English teacher who I had lived with for 18 months after she threw her husband out so I could move in. It hadn't been easy to leave her, our relationship had been intense to...
The 250 mile weekend commute for my fiancée Suzie and I to get together was beginning to test our relationship. She continued to pressure me to relocate to her city. I had been looking for a new job there without any success so far. I was 42 years old and successful in my present job. Suzie was 40 and had no intention of relocating while she still had two t...
I woke up the next morning, Sanya still laying beside me. People were stirring, and I saw that our breakfast had been brought in. I got up and showered, letting the hot water relax my body. I was tense for some reason and could not quite figure out why. Sanya came into the bathroom and joined me in the shower. Together we soaped each others backs and soon w...

Just then, the door opened and Rosa walked into the room wearing my Snoopy shirt. Because of her slightly smaller size then m...
Chapter One: Iphigeneia at the Church of St Mary Magdalene It might have been all of that poetry about demonic women and sado-masochistic desires, and the burning of incense and the profanation of altars, or maybe it was the atmosphere of fin de siècle ennui, but I decided to go to church that Sunday morning. I had been working all Saturday afternoon in the...
Chapter 7 The Weekend is Here Jessica called Lilly around 8 in the morning and told her about her dreams and the nightmare she had the night before. She told her about the people coming to the party, the line up of guys outside her bedroom door waiting to do her, and then about her walking around her home in the later months as her belly grew and expanded,...
Nervous excitement filled my entire body as the following Thursday approached. I was beginning to doubt my ability to hold all of my feelings sealed behind my strict and appropriately haughty, but still always smiling, demeanor, but somehow the days passed by without anyone confronting or correcting me. It was a busy week with elite socializing, and I kept s...
Chapter 2, Finale The Hospice nurse arrived to pick up any remaining items that could be utilized for other patients. I embraced Carmen and thanked her for the support and care she showed us during a very difficult time.

As he stood with Ashley, he stared in raw shock, despite the fact he had been expecting it, seeing this amount of damage was still overwhelming. The situation was too much for Ashley and as tears streamed from her eyes...
