Chapter Fifteen Ethan stared down at Jenna's sleeping form knowing she was going to be pissed when she woke. He couldn't stay in her apartment; he had to work, just as she did. He leaned down, brushing her bangs off of her forehead and let his lips linger gently against her skin for an instant. "I love you, Jenna." She mumbled something in her sleep, turn...
Two nights in the motel near the strip club seemed long enough and I assumed my wife could use a rest after two days of intense sex in which she was introduced to the pleasures of other women. I made sure we awoke, then, in time to check out and with a tentative plan of finding a more upscale motel with a pool and simply spend a night or two relaxing without...
It wasn't my first choice to say the least. As much as I love the outdoors, I would have much preferred a nice cruise or a week on a secluded beach with my new wife as a honeymoon. She was as much of an outdoorswoman as I was, so I guess I shouldn't have been too surprised when she suggested a few days backpacking in the mountains as our first getaway as a m...
Over seventy percent of the earth's surface is covered by water. Its forms are numerous; ocean, sea, river, lake, ice, vapor in the air. Even humans are seventy-five percent water.

The trees dance wildly, thrashing green against a charcoal sky and even the dash from the bus to the apartment block is enough to drench me through. My soaked clothes drip on the tiles leaving a trail in to the elevator. I come face to face with myself in the mirror, this is habit. I work in an office, in the basement of the building, actually I prefer to re...
Exhausted and covered in bits of wood chippings, Lucas headed away from the lumber mill, venturing towards the long road that would lead him home. Extremely physical, the job at the lumber mill left his muscles sore and overworked. The pay was good but the hours were lengthy, beginning at six a.m. before finally coming to an end at four in the afternoon. A...
"Euphrosyne, where in the holy fuck are you taking us?" Clio yelled from the back of the convoy of Goddesses following Euphrosyne blindly through the darkening December skies. They had been in flight for hours and seemingly were no closer to her so called "sanctuary" than they had been when they started. The beautiful Grace had promised them an afternoon of...
"Serra, what's our status?" Malik asked. "Just broke through the atmosphere, but Imperial fighters are hot on our tail." "Rex, let's man the guns," Malik said. "Better idea: Rex and Laranth. I need you here, Malik," Serra replied. "Good call, that girl's a sure-shot." "I'll fetch her," Rex said, jogging out of the cockpit. Down the hallway, he saw...
All teen characters in this story are of legal age. ***** He had been awake for hours staring up at the ceiling beside his sleeping wife worrying what the coming day would bring. Gerald McBride was starting a new job today at a girl's reformatory of all places and he was ambivalent of his chances after hearing the fate of the prior English teacher. He'd re...
17 years ago... The sharp whoosh lasted only a split second before the dull thump of the arrow piercing the target sounded. The barb had struck precisely on the little heart drawn in red crayon on the drawing of the human-shaped figure mounted on the wall with the very cartoonish-looking set of dripping fangs drawn on the otherwise blank face area. Little K...
