Lathandriel Starheart was a man every bit as ridiculous as his name. Born of mixed human and elven parentage, he had seemingly received the strongest traits of each; from his elven mother came his grace, beauty and resistance to the ravages of time; from his human father - now deceased - came strength of body and spirit. From both, it appeared, he had recei...
Chapter Four—Home Again, Home Again That night, for the first in as many as he could remember, Tessa didn't hound Simon for sex, for which he was grateful. "So, you got the job I assume." "Uh huh." "And you like it?" "Oh yes," Tess assured him. "Good night, Simon. I've had quite a busy day." Tess was asleep almost immediately, dreaming of doctors, docto...
He watched her, dancing. She was the one dancing, of course; while he could remember a time, back in his youth, when he might have danced, the time was long past now. But she loved to dance, loved to let the music wash through her, working magic in ways neither of them could completely understand. She loved to sway and sweep and twist and tremble as her bo...
Avalon has never underestimated the humans' lust for advancement. They pursuit technology and knowledge blindly without caring who they hurt in the process. Fortunately, he is not one of them. He is from another world, another time. His species is often looked upon as the most advanced in the galaxy, the pinnacle of organic life. Their, and his, intelligence...
The tension in the room was thick as wood. I stood there hoping that you wouldn't believe the horrible things I had just said to you. How could I be so cruel. My heart told me to reach out and grab you, hold you in my arms, and tell you that I was sorry. My pride, on the other hand, wanted you to hurt the way I did. We never fought like this. Why was tonight...
Speaking from my own experience, here are a few things to keep in mind if you find yourself in a geographically-challenged romance. 1. Know what you're getting yourselves into. Long-distance relationships are awful. Really, really awful. Don't make the mistake of romanticising what is happening. Don't imagine that you are somehow proving the depths of you...
Your wearing your favourite t-shirt with my hoodie, and a pair of black tight jeans, the embossing pattern on the bra is visible through the tight t-shirt, your hair is up, I'm walking you back from the cinema at 10:30 at night, its dark outside and we just saw a sad film, your upset a bit by the ending, and I comfort you, and you seem to actually return my...
"Isis", what a name, she thought to herself. Her mom loved mythology and decided to name her only daughter after the Egyptian goddess. Isis had raven black hair that cascaded down her back and stopped just above her butt. She had emerald eyes and her skin was like porcelain. She was a true vision of loveliness, a goddess if you will. Isis had been plagued w...
They were lying in his bed, all curled up and ready to go to sleep, when she slowly trailed her fingers up his back. He shuddered. She smiled, knowing she had provoked a reaction, and waited for a moment to make it seem like a one-time thing. Just as his breathing was slowing and evening out into the rhythm of sleep, however, she did it again, tracing his s...
Sometimes, my ego just gets in the way. I mean, I become the supreme narcissist—the queen of self-love—more exactly, the empress of self-lust... I, am the bitch who excites me most... Take the other night at the club... my friends were there... and as always, they were sweet enough-how could my friends not be?! But, I only had eyes for me... Now, lets be c...
