Matt Jackson cursed himself for every kind of fool as he traipsed through the field from his grandfather's huge modern house to the small wooden frame house that had once been the original settlement on the family ranch. The way his luck was going lately he would step in a cow pie or worse yet a gopher hole. Ruined boots or a broken ankle seemed just recompe...
*Author's Note* This is my first time trying to write a werewolf story. It is unedited. If you notice any errors, please let me know. Feedback is welcome. CHAPTER 1 The rain fell hard on the top of the car. She sat by the side of the road, looking out at the pouring rain. The wind rocked the car back and forth. She wasn't sure what she was going to do. The...
I love summer. No doubt it's my favorite time of the year. I love the heat and humidity, and really enjoy cooling off at the pool, a nice lake or the ocean. During my junior year in college I went to the local state park with some of my sorority sisters. I was wearing a new white bikini that unbeknownst to me became transparent when it got wet. Since we w...
I didn't understand it, and it troubled me no end. Melinda Hunter was the Purchasing Department joke. The other men could hardly resist snickering and lewd comments as she passed by. She'd earned them with her behavior at after-hours watering holes and departmental parties. On the surface, Mel was a major winner: fresh-faced, bosomy yet slender, extroverte...

Have fun, and feedback is appreciated. ***** S.T.A.R Labs was destroyed after the particle accelerator explosion, and had been declared a hazardous location. The building was in poor condition, wrecked from the tragedy, and this is where Barry Allen was taken to. It was mid...
As I grew up on the High Plains Desert Northeast of Denver, on the Nebraska/Colorado border we didn't have too much violent weather. There were times, of course, when my folks would send us to the basement when a threatening green and black cloud would come up out of the Southwest and we'd all fear for our lives, but it just wasn't that often. Every year or...
It was a horribly hot day in late June. Lila had spent the morning inside on the phone to her landlady regarding the roses growing up the side of the house. Lila lived in a two story house that had been converted into two studio apartments, one on the top floor, and one on the bottom. She occupied the bottom apartment, and the wild roses growing up the side...
XXVIII The Pursuit of Happiness Alex 2026 "Can I help you?" Alex asked the smartly dressed young woman he spotted striding through the office late in the evening. The fur coat and dress she wore was undeniably expensive, so she almost certainly wasn't a member of staff. Even this late in the evening it was curious that she'd been able to get past secur...
[ This one was passed on to me by a guy the day after me, him, and his girlfriend had an allnighter (but that's another story). He told me he was just out of high school at the time this happened- and yes, the girlfriend he mentions cheating on in the story is the girlfriend we shared that night. She seems to be the forgiving sort. Well, enjoy...] * * * * *...
Rielle watched the radar all afternoon as the bonfire approached. The chance of severe storms they were forecasting stuck in her mind as she prepared for her guests. About an hour before everyone was supposed to arrive, the sky darkened, winds picked up, temperature dropped and the rain started. Her phone blew up with texts and calls from friends saying they...
