Author's note: this is the somewhat overdue second part of a trilogy. The first part can be found with my other works. Apologies for the delay (in the past two years I was busy writing something in which all the clothes stay on!), but hopefully this was worth the wait... ***** While she went about her normal days, distracted and on-edge, eager for the ph...
Jake and Amanda's engagement party was just as boring as Zoe had thought it would be. The two of them were so... Pretentious. They made sure to mention how expensive their selection of champagne was, how they'd imported caviar from France and cheese from Italy. It was pretty safe to say that she was going to have to spend half a freakin' paycheck buying some...
I'm at the lab a lot. That's the way it is. I was on the verge of a breakthrough that would change the world. I was close. But breakthroughs take time and long, long hours. Taylor didn't get it. She complained bitterly about this or that, claiming I was never there when she needed me. I trimmed some hours after we married, but she knew what she was getting...
1 Mark asked, "We need to leave immediately? Does the embassy have weapons yet?" Liyana answered, "They are not fully installed or operational yet, but we can leave a fighter or two here to defend the embassy. We really must leave right now!" The urgency and worry apparent in her voice, now had Mark starting to get worried, "Why? What's going on?" Liyana...
So this is it, the final chapter! Thank you so much for the encouragement through votes and comments - I hope you enjoyed reading the story as much as I enjoyed writing it. * "What took you so long?" he repeated, but I just stood there, with clenched fists and an open mouth. That was not the reaction I had expected. I was staring at George as he sat behi...
Dixy Delight and the China Dolls Among showgirls, Dixy Delight was a headliner, not some meth-wasted emasculated stripper; her drug of choice was cocaine. Dixy (real name Debbie Johnson) was 26 years old but looked as if she may have just turned 18, she danced with all the energy of a coke high, and made enough in tips to pay for her drugs. Somewhere deep i...
Greetings, and welcome to chapter four of my story. "Two Broken Roads" is presented in five chapters that are all interconnected. Readers are welcome to enjoy the story any way they want, but it will make more sense if read in order. Other than some steamy conversations, there's not much sex until the end. And fair warning for those readers who are offended...
This is the first in this series and is fiction. Any resemblance of characters to actual people is purely coincidental and enviable. I am very grateful for the time and amazing creative editing KatBaby and BelleLindsey gave in addition to the primarily hawk-eye grammatical editing of SylviDoll to make this better. You rock. I can't thank you three enough and...
+++++ Huntress of the Fallen +++++ The following tale is my entry in the 2020 Halloween Story Contest. It acts as both a sequel and the final act of a trilogy that began with the 2016 Halloween Contest First-Place Winner "Sisters of the Fallen" and continued in the 2019 Halloween Contest First-Place Winner "Redeemers of the Fallen". I hold no expectation of...
Dimensions 1 -- Discovery Password: Discovery Chapter One When is the best time to reflect, he wasn't sure. James poured himself a drink from his decanter and carried it and his glass over to the window and sat in his favourite chair looking out over his garden. The sun had passed the midday point as he took his first drink of the day. Normally, he very ra...
