When I come home from work You reach out And pull me on the sofa Straddling your legs Around my thighs And your arms Around my chest. You cover me like a blanket And I sigh. “Oi!” You scold me: My boobs are not your cushions! They are though: Soft and ample. But I am not resting on them. My head on your chest Listens to your heartbeat. It is steady and strong, And it firmly pushes away With persistence and intent My day’s...

You said you want us to do more kinky stuff to spice up our marriage. For the longest time I did not really understand what you were after and even questioned myself. But I have learned, and I enjoy that shift of power in our relationship more than I thought I would.   So let us play a game, my love! I have one thousand words here that I will read to you. It takes about four minutes to say them. For your sake, I will read...

My day really begins when she leaves her apartment across the street. When I see her in the morning, it appears like she has so much positivity that she dances out of the front door to the small café nearby. That is how elegant she is in every way she moves. She doesn’t look like a sex worker. Like a prostitute. To me she is not prostituting herself, she is not working, she is not doing this for something as vulgar and pl...

Chapter 2  The day had crawled by. It had passed terribly slowly. I had spent the day watching specks of dust floating in the room. I was giddy and frustrated at the same time. But then it was time to go. They had brought dinner. I had eaten a little, but really I wasn’t all that hungry.  I had wondered what to wear for her.  I wanted to be feminine for her. Beautiful. Like I was her girl. I wanted to be her Juliet.   I h...

Everything had turned grey. And also dull. The result of a hotel quarantine after two days. Eight more to go! The dullness was deafening. Hotel Wi-Fi was choppy, and there was nothing on TV. I felt like a bloody prisoner in my economy class hotel room right by Heathrow airport in London. My boss had thought it essential that I safe their London branch, and so he sent me across the pond willing to pay the £2,000 to quarant...

I sat on the sidewalk dreaming about a career as a pro skater. It was early afternoon and too humid for my taste. I really should have practiced instead of just sitting at the curb killing time. I liked the concept of being a skater more than I liked the practice and the bailing and the frustration. And besides it was really too hot to do anything other than to sit there. I should have done something more useful, but didn...

“You got to help me out here!” Alexander pleaded. “Helping you out is the last thing I have to do. Consider yourself lucky that I even took this call. Should have blocked you a long time ago!” There was no chance, Lillian thought. “Come on! Don’t be like that! I'm really desperate. My landlord threw me out. Suddenly, she’s afraid of Europeans. I might carry the virus, she says.” “You’re saying she found out that there is...
