How many hours had she been going now? Rayne had forgotten, and hadn’t even bothered looking at the clock the past couple of hours. She was pretty sure it was somewhere in the vicinity of midnight.Rayne, only 27, had been recruited almost two and a half years ago to work for Superior. On the surface, Superior seemed like any normal research facility. There were labs in half a dozen countries, and many on the team were...
She sat in the corridor, shaking and alone, her knees drawn and her head on her arms. Mandy was shaking. Dane got off the elevator, walking toward his hotel room. His very presence exuded power and authority. He was a man who was used to getting what he wanted. His eyes took in the scene before him as he came close to his door. One of the hotel maids looked very distraught. Instinct took over, and he touched her shoulder,...
Three weeks. It had been three weeks since the intense, passionate encounter. Clarissa had managed to get Matt out of her mind. For entire 20 minute stretches anyway. Not only had he completely dominated her body, but now he had gotten into her mind and taken it over as well. It wasn’t fair, how could one person, one encounter, so completely and thoroughly dominate her waking moments? Sleep moments too, she would awaken f...
Sara’s feet shuffled down the street, belying her mood. It had been a rough day, with her boss breathing down her neck again at the local newspaper. Deadlines, they even ran through her dreams, and his voice, right in her ear, his breath smelling of Doritos, always. She hated Doritos, thanks to him. Her head hung low, her eyes scanning the tiny cracks in the pavement as she worked her way toward her apartment. It was abov...
Twenty-seven year old Jewel flexed her toes in the sand, her pink nail polish shining back at her in the midday sun. ‘It’s perfect here,’ she thought and wished she just stop time, even if for a little while. As a paralegal to a high power law firm in Chicago, Jewel was never able to rest or truly relax. She was known for her commitment to detail and flawless briefs on cases, which was both a blessing and a curse. Jewel w...
Shari Braden sat nervously in the small plane, her hands barely able to stay still in her lap. She was very nervous, for she had been chosen for a very upscale employment contract in Ashington, Northumberland, UK, a smaller town near the eastern coast. A prestigious family lived there, by the name of Worthington. Ben Worthington was a very successful and world-renowned heart surgeon who worked in the Wansbeck general hosp...
Ryan was slowly driving her mad. Not in the blatant, in-your-face, sort of way that other students sometimes pulled around her. That sort of behavior at times was normal, even expected the second semester of their senior year. Oh no, Ryan drove her mad in other ways, and on purpose. It was sometimes just the way he looked at her, his eyes looking as if he was staring right into her soul; like he was reading her very thoug...
Forward: The next story published will be a counterpart to this one, where the teacher is dominant, so think of them in that light as you read. Clarissa slumped in her chair in the office, tired from the long day with her students. She smiled. They inspired her, those seventh graders, but today was one of those where she had to do a lot of talking. It was the short story science fiction unit though, one of her favorite du...
Ewan stood, still and mesmerized, beneath the castle window. It was the darkening hour, around midnight, when his longing was greatest. Not the longing to feed, no. He had satisfied that some hours before, from his stash of blood red vials he kept in the cellar beneath the expansive orchards of this vast abode. The hunger and longing which brought him to this very window each night at the same hour was caused by Elysia, a...
Rachel sighed, stretching out her arms to full length, reveling in the feel of the warm sun on her skin. She sat deep in thought along the shoreline of Lake O’ the Pines, near her grandparent’s house in East Texas. Her thoughts wandered. She was so fortunate to still have her grandparents, she thought. Already twenty four, sometimes Rachel still liked to come visit them as she had as a child. A getaway to write and to thi...
The warmth of your breath, a soft caress. I feel your heart, beating in your chest. My breath on your neck, and then my lips. I hear you sigh, floating in bliss. A kiss, a touch, a moan, a sigh, they’re all wrapped up in you. Each time we’re together, it still feels brand new. How do you make me feel this way? My thoughts always wander; you hold so much sway. Over my thinking, over my mind, over my body, I see us entwined...
Carolyn paced up and down as she lectured. She could never keep still, and had a pretty lively and vivacious personality. Generally speaking, it kept her audience in rapt attention for most of the time, which is more than she could say about other professors at the University of Wyoming, from what the students told her as she visited with them. With this particular course, no one had trouble paying attention, and it had a...
Sandra stood on her driveway, trying not to stare at her neighbor, but to no avail. She loved how his body moved; the tan muscle of his sleek arms and chest drove her crazy. Kevin was cleaning out his garage, and she was able to watch his amazing movements furtively enough, or so Sandra thought. “Well lookie who it is, how long have you been standing there, staring at me?” Kevin sauntered over to her (that walk though, oh...
‘Snap out of it, Sandy! You know you can’t keep drifting off and daydreaming,’ she told herself. She was thinking about the forums last night. It was the one place she got to go and play, not worrying what others thought of her or how she came across. Her friends in there knew her well enough. That was definitely a place of fun and relaxation. Sandy did not get very much of that in her life. The boss at the technology lab...
As she was drying her hair, she sighed. ‘This is crazy,’ she thought. ‘Why do I always feel a need to see him, to… to touch him? You can’t do that to him. You know how much you care about his wife, his family…you are a good person, you’re not a marriage shatterer like the one who ruined yours.’ She shuddered, remembering the feeling of being on the other end of that. It’s hard for her to get him out of her head. Now, afte...
