The phone on my nightstand emitted a shrill ring, and I swore under my breath while fumbling to answer it. For the fourth time this week, I'd been woken by someone calling just before midnight. As I now sat up in bed, holding the phone to my ear, I wanted...
Jake was walking to Eileen's place to take her out, and thinking about their first Playroom experience during which he gave her some pain with nipple clips. He was happy that she got through it without complaint. She seemed to accept that pleasing him was...
When Friday came, Jake and Eileen went to the pub for a nice casual meal and a drink before going to the movies. They picked seats at the back of the theater, which was nearly empty, pulled up the armrest, and snuggled, his arm around her and her head res...
That single word, yes, was like a key unlocking a door. Stepping through that door would lead me deeper into this house, and closer to opportunities I'd only dreamed of. And of course, it would also bring me closer to Oliver in ways I couldn't possibly fo...
On a Wednesday afternoon in late February, the movie theater is almost deserted. I choose the middle seat in the middle row, placing myself directly at the theater's center. The only other person present is an elderly man sitting near the front. This is p...
After meeting Jake, going out to dinner, and having great sex, Eileen was thrilled at having the man she adored for many years after her, and looked forward to doing whatever was needed to keep him. Jake called the next day to thank her for their evening....
I jumped at the sound of the door opening behind me. There was no time to put out my cigarette. Looking over my shoulder, I saw Corey. His tall, muscular frame was silhouetted by the light from the kitchen. "What are you doing out here, Valerie?" The grin...
About a month into the girls summer break, a letter came stating that Spencer and Karen were officially divorced. On telling the girls, Cheryl said they should go out to dinner and celebrate. So Spencer took them to a casual Italian restaurant they all li...
"And this," Peyton said to me, "is the Ring Nebula. Have a look, Gloria." I moved closer to peer through the eyepiece of his eight-inch Dobsonian telescope. "Oh, wow, I see it! It looks just like a smoke ring!" I could hear the smile in Peyton's voice as...
Simone, my neighbor and friend, turned eighteen in the summer of 1986, right after we graduated from high school. Though she had a party planned for the following Saturday, she and her parents invited me to join them for a celebratory dinner at a nice res...
We sit side by side on the couch, our laptops before us. He's brought work home, as is frequently the case, while I'm writing. We've passed plenty of evenings like this. Tonight, however, something about my demeanor captures his attention. Feeling his sta...
I ran into Wes at the supermarket, of all places. My mom had asked me to pick up a few things for a new recipe she wanted to try, and I was heading toward the spices when I spotted him in the produce section. Wearing a huge smile, I rushed over to his sid...
The morning after their mother returned home, Cheryl pulled her stepdad aside after breakfast. “Can I talk to you in my room tonight, after Mom is asleep?” she asked. “Is something wrong?” Spencer asked. “Not really, but I do want to talk to you,” Cheryl...
I waited until the woman left Lance's house, and he was alone in his bedroom once more. Concealed in the shadows, I watched him approach the window. Wearing that same confident smile, he gazed in my direction, as if to summon me. Then he turned off the la...
I watched the photographer work, his subject’s wrists and ankles cuffed and chained to the wooden baulks of a Saint Andrew’s Cross. Naked, except for black holdup stockings, her pussy was waxed clean, and her golden hair framed a face scrunched in displea...
