Mavis raised the teacup to her lips and sipped before replacing the cup on its saucer which she held in her left hand. A nice cup of Earl Grey in bone china on a sunny day, what could be better? She looked down at the cup and frowned in dismay, the smudge of the red lipstick on the rim of […]

“Oh yes, work it, baby, work it!” The photographer couldn’t get enough of Stephen Marcus. Hell, nobody could get enough of Stephen Marcus. Standing six feet tall with a perfectly sculpted athletic physique and a handsome, chiseled face that was at once classically beautiful and cutting edge modern, Stephen seemed destined to be the next big thing. Just two years […]

I come home from work, turn the knob, swing the door open, and drop my briefcase on the floor. It’s been a long day. I’m tired, but anxious… from the stress at work or that third espresso, I’m not sure which. As soon as I’m home I relax a bit though – I smell the candles you’ve lit, hear the […]

Marianne Newhook stood within the crowd of noble dignitaries beneath the walls of the inner fortress of Castle Greyrook, capital of the Kingdom of Gandora. She wore a simple but elegant blue sleeveless dress that was trimmed and encrusted with golden squares that wrapped around her shoulders, and the modest neckline. It was a garment that befit her station and […]

Having just turned 18, I’m beginning to see my mother in a different light. My mother is in her early 40’s; she’s wealthy, intelligent and respected in her profession. You could say I’ve tried to emulate and to keep up with her. I started college at 16 and hope to finish in three years. Unfortunately, I’m home for the summer, […]

In protest I barely spoke a word to either of them, until recently when i learned Cat’s mother had plans to move to Denmark with her new boyfriend. To my […]

Although it had been a while I knew this territory well. Recruiting an asset for Grey wasn’t something I thought I would do again. But I felt obligated. They had provided me with a good career. And while I was thankful for the years I had with them, I really was enjoying my early retirement life owning a small brewery […]

“Will you hurry up Ava, damn… You’re so extra… We’re just going to Cubboost, not Rome. Sheesh girl, you’re an adult, not twelve. Why do you always take so long to get dressed?” my twin scolded me… “Can you leave me alone, Caroline, I have to look good… When I dress down, that’s the time that I see the people […]

Gentle Touching Inside and Out A premium touchless car wash takes 6 minutes when you add the underside. This drive thru will be anything but touch less and gentle. There’s something about driving through a car wash that excites me. It’s like a new adventure every time under the soapy cover of the big red spinning balls and white foam […]

I went back to see Sandra. I got there and the house was dark but her car was parked in the driveway, so I figured she was home. I knocked on the door and she answered wearing a bathrobe just like the night before. I asked if I could come in and she said yes. “Shall we get naked?” I […]
