Maria said. As she walked up the white stone staircase, she grazed her hand along the soft tulips that were in the prime of their lives. Most were white and yellow. She caught Will smirking at her and she stopped admiring the flowers and topiaries that lined the entire h...
Ryan was kissing her. Really kissing her. And it shouldn't be feeling this good. She clutched onto him as he pulled her against him and gently brushed his tongue across her lips, opening her mouth to his ministrations. His tongue tangled with hers and Julie was lightheaded...
But she wouldn’t just run away either. She would speak to Joshua face to face, and explain the situation. Chances are he would agree completely. She would ask him if she could be flown home on the jet, and if he refused she would make her own way back to the States. She’d officially hand in h...
In that moment of emotional vulnerability, Kathleen felt very exposed. Now she regretted having tossed the t-shirt to the side. With few other options, she covered the front of her breasts with her arm. “You wouldn’t understand,” he said. ...
My eyes opened and at first nothing seemed to make sense. One moment I was wet and walking down the street, the next I am kidnapped and wake up in a dark room. This is right out of a Saw movie. I was shaking. It was weird. I didn’t remember giving my brain the message to quake my body. &nbs...
His eyes had gotten from happy green to a concerned jade, and when he approached her, Cecilia could only say that she was just tired. “What’s wrong?” Aaron asked over breakfast. “It’s nothing,” Ceci replied. Aaron didn’t buy ...
She was nervous, her mind going over every scenario that could happen when Simon got back and confronted her. He was mad. That much Whitney could ascertain. He was mad at her for disobeying him and he was mad that his former girlfriend was now in an intimate relationship w...
Erin had stripped off her jacket and most of her sweatshirts, but had been pulling them back on in anticipation of following him when he strolled back into the cavern, as casually as if he was strolling back into rehearsal. In his hands, he carried fistfuls of parsnips and...
It was impossibly disgusting, and even as he wished to dip his nose somewhere else, he had a job to do. The groans and whines coming from the man struggling against his grip were constant and annoying, but nothing he wasn’t expecting. If anything it...
In that moment of emotional vulnerability, Kathleen felt very exposed. Now she regretted having tossed the t-shirt to the side. With few other options, she covered the front of her breasts with her arm. “You wouldn’t understand,” he said. ...
Yes… but beautiful, wouldn’t you agree? I suppose. Then again, I am not impressed with their lack of understanding. Although I can say, it’s impressive they’ve survived this long on that planet. The males are less impressive from their females. The ...
Oh god. Oh god. Oh god. What am I doing? Why would I do this? He’s so damn hot, I can’t even think around him. Did I really just agree to go to a gala with him? Oh, god. Her mind was running 90 to nothing. She couldn’t stop panicking. This incredibly hot man just asked her...
Kelly laughed as her friends gave her playful shoves towards the stage. “No you guys, stop. This is silly.” It was a charity dinner with a bachelorette auction at the end. Kelly agreed to come with her friends for moral support, unsuspecting they would expect her to ta...
“Coming up,” she said, and he quipped something about him already being “up.” Like any other bad joke made about a dick, she smiled, gave a polite titter, and poured him his cocktail. They all thought they were so clever. They always did. Of all things, Bernadette had ...
It was as if with every passing day whatever tension was brewing between them was becoming more and more palpable. While Dom’s attitude didn’t seem to change much throughout their regular interactions, his expressions had. It was a subtle glance that now seemed to sear int...
It. It looked at me. She somehow made it to her room and locked it immediately, somewhat foolishly thinking that a wooden door would be able to stop the huge monster. She sat in one corner of her room, facing the door, not daring to move, lest anyth...
Dom caught on to her curiosity and grinned at her. Pointing at the dock, he began to describe its uses where a very long and very sturdy tube like contraption would be adjusted to their ship and where Dom would be able to park his beloved vehicle. “...
I didn’t see Christian much over the next few days, though we live in the same house. He let me sleep in the guest room and “make it my own” (though I didn’t have anything to make it my own. All of my things were at my house.) I did jump on the bed a few times (okay, many times) to break it in,...
Even with the pressure of the water, the ringing sounded loud. Bradley winced but kept going. Swimming his hangover off wasn't working. It took a lot to get an alien shifter drunk and with dragons, you would have to drink enough to give a human cirrhosis of the liver. &nbs...
Earlier she had tried to draw attention to herself to passing cars but before long, she gave it up after realizing that it was futile. The stranger sat quietly, driving along paths undefined. Angie was petrified, mortified, terrified beyond all measure. Just an hour ago, s...
Light. Finally. The dream is over. I am in my bed. Sleeping. It was one crazy dream. I keep my eyes closed, hoping that that way the events of last night which I was more than happy to attribute to a dream were nothing but only that. Well, a part ...
The stranger had placed a wall clock in the room. At 7:59 am the door was unlocked but left unopened. Angie was sitting on the bed, wearing the clothes that the he had brought yesterday. They fit her perfectly, which surprised her. She went downstai...
Sitting Up and Taking Notice Grayson couldn't take his eyes off Amanda as she stood before the floor-to-ceiling mirrors, breathing heavily but steadily while she worked with the lighter dumbbells. She was doing steady lateral rises and it was clear that she was struggling. Her arms were shaki...
Delia started attending her classes again, though she avoided the Bogart brothers. David seemed to have moved on fine, though he’d text her sometimes, seemingly after a party or a few drinks. She mostly ignored him. As for Lucas, a few times she caught him looking her wa...
They seemed to both need that time just to get used to each other. It was as if the King, by forcing them together, had driven a wedge between them instead, and one which had to be slowly pried loose, the breach mended. Trust built, and assumptions discarded. But at least, despite the discomfort ...
Before she knew it, somehow she'd been there for nearly a month—and she still felt comfortable, the intimacy growing between the two of them. She no longer felt like such a prisoner, although she didn't like to stray far from the house for strictly personal reasons (she still was afraid in the ba...
