"Yo, hey Sammy!" Sam held in the cringe -- which took more energy than he normally had at this time of night -- and returned the greeting with a light wave. His supervisor feigned a gun and shot at him. Most of his coworkers, or at least those with enough coffee and Redbull in them, pretended to be shot or dodge or something to keep the humor alive. Sam jus...

Thanks to a new integrated computer and camera system there was simply less need for middle management and they were being cut l...

I was in a small neighborhood plaza in Seville when a painter at his easel caught my eye. He was painting a woman sitting on a bench with a small fountain behind her. She was dressed in white and was surrounded by pigeons, she looked fabulous. She also looked sad, resigned to her fate. She had a white cane at her side, she was blind. I walked up to the guy...

Chapter 1 "So, Jack, is it? Jack Benton, I believe," I heard behind me. "Yeah, I wondered how that would be taken, and who would be quickest to respond to me. So, who are you and ... what do you represent? The Vatican? The LDS? The JWs? The Baptists? The IFCA? The Seventh-Day Adventists? Who?" I demanded to know now. "None of the above.

I'd like to thank Wolf Vixen for all her help on this story. So sit back with your favorite beverage and enjoy a fictional story and ask yourself how you would have handled it. * I loved Kim as much as any man could ever love a woman.

It took several minutes in the relative solitude of my cubicle to slow my heart rate. I had held up well during the meeting, and I'm sure I never gave any indication of having been rattled. I was, but s...
Phil Chambers sat behind the wheel of his car waiting for his wife, Sue, to come out of her office. The couple had arranged to meet here and then go in to town for a special meal. Tonight was the fifth anniversary of the day they had met at a Save the Environment demonstration. They were both studying at University at the time and were married before they gr...
The rope creaked a little under my weight, the chafing bite settling more firmly into my wrists. It was looped through a ceiling hook - probably meant for a plant, but light bondage works, too, right? - and secured around the locked doorknob. My boss was officially "out" of his office at this hour. So was I. Unofficially, we had been meeting after hours for...
