The Not So Hidden Dilemma Two days later. "Sorry for interrupting class," the intercom buzzed on as Mary the secretary spoke. "Here are the evening announcements; can the following students please meet the principal at break; all V.3 boys and C.2 girls and Rosy O'Brian: P4, thank you". The intercom buzzed off. The teacher resumed talking. "Turn to page...
Chapter One Hundred Forty-Five: Barrier to Entry All of our forces had lined up in ranks, five across, in front of the opening leading further underground. There weren't as many as I'd hoped, between the injuries and those left to guard our rear. The soldiers themselves seemed tense, as though their numbers were weighing on their minds as well. We'd been s...
Author's note: this has a rather complicated backstory. The story takes place in a world of swashbucklery and magic. Rischa Vale was a pirate captain, one of few females in a misogynistic part of the world to manage this. She had been fostered by a famous pirate, and had won the esteem of her men through courage and hard work. One day, a man named Mika Arago...
As it was getting close to Valentine's Day again Steve found himself walking down the same back street in China Town on the mission to track down another small vial of that potion. Over the past years it had almost seemed a ritual since his very first successful wild Valentine night. He had no problems turning the heads of all the ladies with his 6ft 4in hei...
(Most of the names/place names are changed and the dialogue is from memory. Other than that, this is based on my own true story. The story makes more sense if you start at the beginning.) * For almost two weeks I went back and forth in my mind. Was it true? Am I a naturally submissive woman as Francis had implied? Am I hungry for it? He didn't tell me mu...
The house was decorated for the holiday. A bowl full of chocolate and other tooth decaying goodies had been placed on a table near the door and Seanna, dressed casually, tried to regain the thrill of a Halloween tradition as she set the phone down. Her thoughts slipped willingly back to Jefferson and his apologetic tone. Every time he baled he sounded sinc...
It had been a long day of sales calls and highway miles, and the setting sun was glaring directly into Sophia's eyes as she pulled into town. Tomorrow would be another day of customer appointments and driving before she was back home, but at least she wouldn't have to stay in another hotel room. Tonight she would be staying with two of her dearest friends, M...
The stitched hide walls of the Bandit Queen's tent did little to stifle the noise of the feast going on outside. They had felled a boar that very day, and with the ale they had captured earlier in the week still in ready supply, she could hardly fault her men for wanting to enjoy themselves a bit. She was just thankful that their camp was far enough into the...
Lisa knelt on the soft, carpeted floor. She was completely naked, except for a jet black leather hood stretched across her face, which stood in stark contrast to her pale skin. Her hands were tied behind her back, which in turn were attached to a rope around her waist. This rope ran between her legs, and looked uncomfortably tight against her crotch. Her hoo...
From the street outside Jiafahn's urban home, she could see the grand, almost cloud-like clusters of brown and gold leaves that had grown from the Godly Tree. It was said to be the tallest tree ever found in Junshu, but quite a few people were willing to debate that. The tree's trunk was hidden by a city-like complex of palaces, workshops, and other buildi...
