Chapter 1: Katie and Ryoko As I enter the apartment I share with my boyfriend Jim, I pause for a while at the door. I notice that the door is ajar, and Jim's shoes are outside. He must be home early from the gym. There're some muffled sounds that I can hear even from the hallway. "Jim?" I called out. "I'm back, honey. Are you there?" There is no reply. I...
Drake got no real sleep that night. Every time he slipped into slumber his body would relax, and he'd put weight on his sore arms, waking him up again. He ended up watching the sun rise though the massive windows that faced out over the valley. He watched the silver dragon swoop and spiral over the land, then fly off into the distance. The doors to the PR...
I'd had it bad for other girls before and not gotten my way in the end, but Amanda Cameron was a whole new ballgame. I hadn't had sex since I split up with my last girlfriend a few months before and it was hard, no pun intended, to keep it off my mind. That was, until I met Amanda. She took my mind off of everything. She was the sweetest girl you could imagi...
Part One Trust me when I tell you I don't normally check the wedding announcements. I hate weddings. Ever since I was a page boy at my aunt's wedding, when my mother made me wear a pale blue tuxedo. I was six, for God's sake. She said I looked so cute. Aunts and Uncles oohed and aahed at me as I walked down the aisle with the rings on a little satin pillow...

Even after all this time, he was still amazed that she had actually picked HIM and that she was his. Cheryl lay there in her small silky nightgown, sleeping peacefully as her husband marveled at her beauty. He reached over and slid his hand inside the...
Brad was an only child. He was six years old when his mom, Karoline, died in an accident. He had fond memories of his mom, especially of the one summer he spent in Northern California at her family's beach-front home. Often, he looked at a photo taken on a beach that showed him being hugged by his mother and a woman with long neck and legs. The woman called...
She tried the dress on for the fifteenth time that month, and once again hoped that this time she'd feel different. As she stared into the full length mirror that had been moved into her room, she noticed how the whiteness of the dress seemed so much brighter against her pale skin. How her red hair and blue eyes seemed that much more pronounced by the additi...
To the reader This is a work of fiction suggested by an actual event. The stop light was yellow and I was slowing down to stop when I saw a car coming from the opposite direction speed up to try to beat the red light. He didn't and the traffic light camera flashed twice, nailing him for running the red light. I smiled as I thought about those cameras. They...
The black stretch limo moved silently through the downtown street like a shark at dusk. The tinted windows protected the occupants from any nosy onlookers as it made its way north, toward the suburbs. Only the olive-skinned driver could be seen through the front windshield, his face mainly hidden by the classic chauffer's hat and his dark glasses. The grey-...
