It was the smell that woke me….it was food and I was so hungry since I was too nervous to eat before I arrived yesterday. I got off the bed and made my way to the little kitchen but I was surprised to find that the smell had not come from there. I checked the cupboards and the fridge but they were empty except for some bottles of water. I grabbed one and chugged it down, hoping that it would satisfy my hunger temporarily....

I stood outside on the grass looking at the beautiful old farmhouse as the summer sun started going down. The front porch ran all the way across the front with a bench swing hanging on the right side. The green shutters on the windows were all in pretty good shape. It definitely needed some TLC and a fresh coat of white paint but the foundation was solid as was the structure. And the inside was as charming as the outside;...

It had been a long and stressful Monday, filled with meetings and high-maintenance clients. For these meetings, I made sure to dress a certain way to both impress and distract them. Today I was wearing a fitted white blouse, tucked into a form-fitting, charcoal pencil skirt and my shoulder-length silver hair was in a neat chignon. With my glasses on and 4-inch dark purple heels added to my 5’4” frame, I was certainly doin...

“Please Ma’am! Don’t be afraid,” a deep, gravelly voice spoke gently. “I’m not going to hurt you. I’m one of the park staff here.” His voice galvanized me into action, despite my protesting muscles. I quickly got to my feet but my legs still felt weak and I would have fallen if he hadn’t caught me. I gasped as I grabbed his arms to steady myself, feeling the large muscles in his biceps and forearms. While holding me with...

Marty and Henry had left me in the rec room after our initial session as it was their wish that this room would be where the three of us would spend all our time together. In my excitement earlier, I hadn’t noticed another door at the end of the room and upon inspection, it led to two other rooms; a small kitchen and a large bathroom with a huge Jacuzzi tub and walk-in shower. I could get used to this! While I was disappo...

It was a beautiful sunny day in the middle of the week and I had decided to book off work for the day. Things were slow at the office and the thought of being stuck inside was too much to take. I had decided to go for a hike since I hadn’t been in a while and really needed the workout. Now up in the wooded hills, I’d taken a different trail this time and it was definitely more challenging than my usual route. The heat and...

Henry opened the door in response to my knock and when he saw me, a big smile lit up his face. I couldn’t help but be pleased at his reaction – even though there had been a couple of emails and phone calls back and forth, this first meeting was nerve-wracking. He stepped back and waved me in, bending down to take my knapsack from my hand as I walked by. It was a nice house in a quiet neighbourhood, never giving away what...
