Alyse listened to the phone ring. Once, twice, thrice. Finally, Damon picked up. "This is Dr. Christie's office." He answered. "Damon, it's me." Alyse replied. An audible gasp made its way into her ear. "Oh, thank God. Sheriff Kelly came by last night, asking about you." "About Fisher and the agent, right?" She asked. "Yes, Alyse. What is going on?" "I...
My life was a mess. I am a flight attendant for "Conus Airlines", an airline that flies within the continental United States. I had a rigorous schedule and I was overly tired and very stressed. I needed time off to rest and gather my thoughts. I had just broken up with my boyfriend of three years and needed to start a new life for myself without Jack. I dec...
*Sorry for the delay. Please enjoy!* ***** Ryker I tried my best to focus my attention on everything Alpha Howard of the Lakewood Wolf Pack was saying to both my father and I, but I couldn't think straight. Kendra, who I had just literally found out was my mate less than twenty-four hours ago was walking a little ways in front of all of us and her beauti...
After all we had been through, we finally stopped talking and finished eating our entrees. We then poked through our side items and "desserts," comparing what we each had.

"Mabel, I want you to go down to the town today and pick up some supplies. We're low on a few things and the walk will do you some good." Mabel turned to consider her father. How to address the issue without him getting upset? "Ah, Pa, I'm of age now and you know what some of those town-folk are like." Not to mention some of the scum that lived in the mou...
I woke up with a swimming nausea and that feeling of dread. Something bad happened last night. Dread. Something really bad. Pieces started coming together and I almost started to cry as the memories assembled hazily. Fruity cocktails, shots, a huge beer. My friend, Sarah, and I got kicked out of the bar for being obnoxious. The Uber was 17 minutes away, fuc...
"Come out here for a minute, will you hon," my wife Anne called to me. She was sitting on the deck facing the lake enjoying a beautiful July morning with her friend Kelly. Anne has known Kelly since childhood, and the two have been close throughout the 27 years Anne and I have been married. Kelly was visiting us at our cabin in the Northwoods of Minnesota f...
Every year at this time I am reminded of a Halloween party that my wife, April and I attended back in 2003. The party took place at her friend, Stacey's cabin. It's a huge, lake front property that has been passed down Stacey's family for generations. My wife had attended many parties there, and she had been looking forward to this one for weeks. 28 years o...
Parul had a way with words. Like I mentioned earlier, she could sway you and convince you to kill yourself. But she never misused this oratory power. We both got busy in our work but in the evening I got a message from her. "He's asked me if I want to come to Domino's with him. I declined but I took a rain check." I wondered why she decline and even asked...
