My apologies to those who read an earlier version of this that I uploaded prematurely. I hope knowing the story won't spoil your enjoyment of this version. *** When Debbie got up to speak, she spotted Craig straight away. The tiny little bit of eye contact they had as she walked on stage almost startled her. Who was this guy? He was so focussed on her, s...
All characters are 18 or older. This is a long build up one, if that's not what you are looking for, then I am sorry. This is just how this story is. +++++++ One Lilly scrambled through the underbrush as fast as she could. The drunk frat boys were still behind her, still cat-calling, and asking why she left. She was terrified. After Trevor, the big one,...
When I first started contracting at the company, I thought Karen was overweight. Turned out, she was just pregnant. I never asked really, as my less than stellar social skills meant there would be no good way to broach that subject. I found out just by listening to the office conversation around me. As the project manager and coordinator, I had to interact w...
This is a companion piece to The Hills Are Alive... We revisit our heroine Trish as she tries to find a way to top that adventure. It isn't necessary to have read that piece, but she has a habit of being bad like this. She seeks thrill, danger and excitement. Don't judge her, at least she shares her stories. After the amazing adventure in the mountains...
Wheels-down in Cuba: Vacation in the sun reawakens dormant desires Pressure on my eardrums wakes me. I dig in my purse for minty gum. Chewing and swallowing eases the pain, and I smile at my seatmate. Everyone stares out the portholes as the packed jet descends, but light haze veils the ground. Loud bumps from beneath the floor and a sudden roar: landing...
Helen's heart sank as the shop door opened and Brian strode in, smiling confidently. He hadn't been around for several weeks, now, and she had dared to hope, maybe, that ...... But his opening words dashed her optimism. "Hello, my darling niece," he leered. "And how are you today?" Helen's flesh crept as she felt her uncle's eyes examine the swell of her...
Dan fancied Rachel. This was no great shock because every other bloke below pensionable age in his insurance workplace also fancied her. Slim, dark haired with neat blond highlights, blue eyes, flawless skin with eye-catching prominent breasts, Rachel was invariably immaculately dressed with simple understated make up. Her smile could light up a room. But Ra...
Mike kissed me, picked his lunch off the counter top and headed for the door. "Mike, I still don't see why you are so damned set on going to that damned ranch so you can work all through your vacation." Mike hesitated at the door, turned, grinned and reached for a piece of chalk, conveniently located in the tray at the bottom of the chalk board we maintain...
Abigail Slaughter was a woman of passion. Many of Abigail's co-workers thought she was temperamental, the more charitable amongst them said, fiery, those that had disliked her from the get go said psychotic. None of these people had ever noticed that Abigail's signature on any and all documentation carried an apostrophe after her given name and, that she nev...
This is a story I wrote several years ago for a men's adventure magazine, but it folded before it got off the ground. No sex, but it has adventure and romance, and I hope you enjoy it. As always, feedback is encouraged. Thanks! * "Goddamn it, we don't have time for this!" The lieutenant's big fist slammed down on the desk, slopping the lukewarm coffee over...
