TALIS, HOMEWORLD OF THE TALOS
Streaks of fire zoom across the skies over Talis, and the parasites are panicking. The Talos look like large scorpions with long, thick, dick-shaped tails. They are capable of impregnating women of any race, no matter the size.
Three Alpha Talos, the future heirs of Talis, are being loaded into pods by their breeding mother, a tall, lustrous woman with pale skin and dark hair, and ample curves in all the right places. A man who looks to be the same species as the breeding mother helps her. The man is the Talos King. The man pulls off a ring, and slides it down the eldest Alpha Talos’ tail.
“You and your brothers are the only hope for the survival of the Talos. You know how to find a breeder. You will save our race, on Earth.” the King smiles. The lustrous alien woman bends and kisses the eldest Talos’ tail, taking about half between her gorgeous lips with ease.
“I will follow you in 18 years. I’m being sent to cryo-sleep. I shall be your Queen, baby.” the breeding mother coos. The eldest Talos squeaks in pleasure as his mother kisses his large cock again. The King kisses the breeding mother one last time, before running to try to salvage his race as the breeding mother ships off the last of the Talos. To Earth. But one day, the breeding mother would find her son, and once again breed the Talos race.
# ## Sophie planted two soft palms on his chest and shoved. Cole careened backwards, barely able to keep from crashing onto his arse, and swore. ‘Damn me, that’s not what I-‘ he stopped short, unable to keep from quailing a little beneath the naked murder in her face. ‘I see. What exactly is so repulsive about me? Is it my face? Because I’ve been compared to a goddess you know! By three different men, ‘ she hissed. ‘Four if you count Reverend Quincey!’ ‘You are a goddess, wait, Reverend...
Jenny's boyfriend had been pressuring her to have sex for weeks. The most recent time had been on a Friday in his car after driving her home from school. Parked in her parents' driveway, the high school seniors had been kissing passionately, Jenny even letting her tongue snake into Andrew's mouth. But when he began to caress her breasts through her top, she had moved his hand away. "Come on, Jenny," he complained. "We've been going out for almost a year. We're 18!

To call the private studio of the Dominatrix a dungeon would, for the fortunate, earn only her contempt. Eschewing the contrivances of male sadomasochistic fantasies, the walls were painted a passionless shade of gray-green, the oak floor polished to the luster of ancient gold, and the sole window decorated with an embroidered ivory curtain, now closed. The eclectic wood furnishings, a large bed, wardrobe, and Edwardian writing desk and chair, reinforced without crowding the space. On this...

“Paul O’Dell, you fool! You have a daughter. You’re a father! Not a mother!” Opal Anne chided me with outrageous laughter. “Wait until I tell that one to your brothers.” “Oh, don’t do that,” but she kept laughing, condemning me to a life of jokes. When she calmed down, Opal Anne began giving more instructions. “OK, my love, please clean me up and then we can think of a name for our daughter.” “A name?” I knew I’d forgotten to do something. “You didn’t think about a name for the baby, did...
The two dejected Rangers slumped as they walked to their horses. "Now, what?" asked Sean. "I don't know. Let's cross the river an' head back to the marshal's office in Eagle Pass. Maybe we kin think of sumpthin' on the way," answered Ezra. They were less than a mile south of Eagle Pass when they heard gunfire. "What the hell? Let's check it out," exclaimed Sean as he urged his horse toward the noise. They rounded a bend in the road and came upon a young woman standing beside a...
When she had finished drying him and presented herself in position one, he checked to see that she had done her job properly and told her that he was satisfied and she left the bathroom to lay out his clothes while he cleaned his teeth. She returned to the bathroom, her job completed and again assumed the position. "Good morning slut, are you well?" he asked. yes Sir" she replied. "We are going to the gym in about half an hour, you will just have time to wash but first I must check...
One leg at a time, I eased out of the pantyhose and dropped them on the bed. He picked them up, stretched them a few times, and said "I'll bet these would make pretty decent ropes." There was a strange note in his voice that I'd never heard before. I continued to undress, dropping my bra to the floor, and answered carefully, "Probably. After all, don't stranglers use them?" He stretched one nylon leg over his hand and stood behind me. He didn't say anything, just nibbled on my neck and ran the...
I didn't know how to describe it properly at all. Our night was a mess, that's for sure. I woke up around 3 in the morning and there were sounds of thunder and lightning booming outside. I moved over to hug John at his side of the bed, only to find no one under the sheets. Confused, I got up and looked around our bedroom to see that the bathroom light was on, I went back to bed anyway, he could've been taking a piss. I wanted to wait for him to come back to bed so I could cuddle into his arms...

“I didn’t realize you two knew each other,” Aaron mutters.He’s been giving me the cold shoulder all morning. I hadn’t pieced it together, until I remembered Tobias telling me not to put up the sound block. “I’ve known him longer than I’ve known anybody,” I defend myself. “Show me,” Aaron says. I take Aaron’s hand, allowing him into my thoughts. “I raised that boy into a vampire,” I tell Aaron as images flash from my thoughts into his. “He was dying when I first met him. He was in a war, and...
SupernaturalOne of the coolest things about having a copy of you show up, but with only recent memories, is getting to re-watch your favorite older movies with him because he’s never seen them. We had just finished watching Terminator and Terminator 2 (Director’s Cut, of course) back-to-back. “That ... was ... awesome!” he declared. “Are there any more in the series?” I screwed up my face. “Um, there are, but I think we should just stop there to avoid disappointment.” “Huh ... okay,” he replied, and...
The Hawking's return to Earth was very low key, as was the activity of most of the people who left the ship. Rob called another meeting in the Captain's mess, with the same group as before. Ted Henley got included this time. "We're back in a hurry because we need to get some teeth, both for the ship and for the crew. That means guns, and when it comes to this area, I will concede a lack of expertise, and cede it to those among us with military backgrounds." Rob said as an opening...

Nicole was trying to listen to what the professor was saying, but she kept looking down at her laptop. She pretended to be taking notes, but the truth was she was nervous about Barry. He was watching her through the webcam. She was nervous about her clothes too. The white shirt she was wearing made her look very professional, but it was thin and tight and she wasn't wearing a bra. Several guys had already stared at her. A few weeks ago the size of her breasts had given her a sense of power,...
The large wooden sailboat was very out of place. First, the monsters in the ocean could probably swallow it. Second, it was never meant to travel on water. Third, it was floating seven hundred meters above the ground and a couple of hundred meters above the trees below. My place was a couple of days east of the northern colony on Addison's World. I brought the boat down close to the colony market area. The landing legs extending and the boat settled before I shut down the hydrogen reactor. I...
The line outside the mall entrance was half a block long, and full of guys from teenage to grandpas. They were all lined up at the little table set up outside the south doors, where the Girl Scouts had their cookie stand. Penny waved when she saw me walking up. She was wearing the new uniform with only the bottom button on the vest done up. Even on her small B-cup chest the effect was very naughty, pushing her little boobs up and leaving her tits uncovered under the white, see-thru...
I led Jay down the short corridor, opening the bathroom door for him to see. It was neat and clean. Then I led him the next few steps to the bedroom. The door was open and he pushed past me. His shoulder and arm brushed across my chest as he moved through the doorway. My cock was already rock hard. I watched him walk to the closet and open the door. As he checked it out, I checked out his body.Jay was tall and muscular, but not overly developed. He wore some long shorts and a tight fitting...

I looked through her folder. A naked picture was included. This woman was not beautiful. She wasn’t ugly, either. I saw that she was right in the middle of her cycle from the charts of her cycle. She was not real heavy. I knew that didn’t matter. I would get anything pregnant.Nurse Anna came back and said, “Mrs. Brady is ready.” I got up and followed.I entered Exam Room 8 for the third time that day.

So here I was sitting down with three out and out queens all beautifully dolled up, and they all knew that I had an attraction to female impersonators and drag queens. "So tell me then Petey," said Alecia, "describe to me your fantasy queen." "I, er I, er," I could only manage. "Now don't be shy, we're all friends here." "Oh leave him alone Alecia, I think Pete's had enough for one night," exclaimed Billie surprisingly with a hint of sympathy in his voice, "besides it's getting...

This is a fantasy, you should not try this stuff in real life. In real life people who do these things can get hurt, killed or locked away for a very long time.The characters exist only in my imagination and any resemblance to persons living or dead would be coincidental and very creepy.Robin Winter was terribly sad. She knew she had no right to be. She was 27, attractive healthy and had a job as a romance writer that had allowed her to purchase and renovate a cozy farmhouse on 5 acres. But as...
Late into the summer evening the steel bands were still in full song. You could hear them even above the hubble-bubble of Frank’s patrons. Anyway, the doors and windows were open. It was steaming, man. Our eyes met across the tables. Guys came to Frank’s Bar to find other guys and hopefully get laid. He was a lager drinker, a good sign. I was on iced cider, the latest craze. He was coloured, probably Caribbean. This part of London had its share, especially on carnival day. When he went...

Karen nearly panicked when the young man climbed out of his car and leaned back in to retrieve his gear. If her guess was right, he probably wasn’t even old enough to drink yet. Oh no, no, no! Why didn’t I ask to talk to who they were sending first! She glanced back over her shoulder at the gymnasium that would soon be filled with children – including her own son. What had promised to be a triumph that would unseat Betty, the PTA queen of organization, now teetered in the balance, all hinging...
Chapter 1[/b] I’d been going with Steph for about three months; she was a gorgeous auburn haired 16 year old with a fantastic slim body and we were really into each other. I was 17 and about six months older than Steph. Neither of us were what you could call sexually experienced, in fact Steph was still a virgin when I met her. I had had a few sexual experiences but was by no means an accomplished performer. We were on a date one night in town when after a few drinks we found a dark spot...

This Part has plenty of action but for best results I suggest you read Part 1 first. My drive home from the mall flew by in an instant. I had only gone there to buy make-up and ended up with a bag full of cosmetics, panties, blouse and a skirt – not to mention being sucked off in the changing rooms by the cute Asian salesman, Philip. It’s still hard to imagine that I had spent 36 years of my life without experiencing the touch of another man. My legs were still like jelly as I rushed into...
Gay MaleMAGIC HAPPENS CHAPTER 3 A familiar lavender scent reached my nostrils as I woke up from my slumber. That, coupled with a smooth, slender arm wrapped around me, let me know that Karyn was still here. In the two weeks since id taken over Samantha's life, she'd come over almost every night. I couldn't get enough of her, and she couldn't get enough of me. Slowly slipping out from under her arm, I stood up and took in her sensual, naked form on my rumpled sheets. Unwilling to disturb such...
My Wife’s Sister About a week ago my wife informed me that her younger sister would be staying with us for a couple of weeks.

My wife and her sister are similar both size and height wise, but my sister in law has larger breast and slightly bigger ass. My wife is more reserved in public, but my...

Gay MaleMy name is Jon Combes and this is the continuation of my first chapter. I have been gay since I was nineteen. And from the start, I was happy to be gay.

Soy hijo único y no tengo madre ni hermanos. Al quedarme sin mamá toda su ropa quedó en casa y éramos en tamaño iguales. Como desde nenita me atraía la ropa de mujer, no desaprovechaba la oportunidad de vestirme y pasaba mad**gadas enteras viéndome en el espejo y cambiándome de ropitas cada rato. Una noche, sin darme cuenta, mi padre ingresó a mi dormitorio y me vio vestida con una minifalda, blusa y botas de mamá. Yo ya me veía como una nena y usaba mi cabello rubio largo.

I knew I had time now; my wife had gone out with her friendsand wouldn’t be back until 10pm at the earliest. As it was only 6:30, I knew I could spend time getting ready before playing around on the computer and enjoying a nice relaxing but exciting orgasm. My cock was more than ready as I hadn’t had sex for over a week and no chance to masturbate either due to either the kids being around or my wife not being in the mood. So as soon as she was out the door, I looked out of the window to watch...

LesbianMy history with Frank…we hadn’t seen each other much for about four months before this all happened. That’s when Rose caught him cheating on her. They took a couple of months apart and then she moved back in with him and I had avoided him. We had been friends before that; we’d hung out when Rose was out of town, like buds. I don’t trust many people easily, so it meant a lot when he cheated on her. I felt like he betrayed our friendship too. So this was going to be the first time since...

This time I'd sort of seen it coming. I didn't want it to happen but now that it had I found it didn't hit me as hard as Penny's betrayal. I still felt pretty bad for a while but didn't have to depend on anyone else. I had been looking around for a chance to move. I'd been hearing rumours about problems between Penny and her new husband. I don't know if there was any connection but I had noticed her driving past the house a few times, and twice I saw her sitting in her car just looking...
“Honey, no, I don’t want to talk about it.”That’s the answer I’ve gotten for the last three months! I’d become obsessed with Daniella, my wife, telling me about her first lover. The only answer she’d give me has been, “I don’t want to talk about it.”I’ve asked her if it was painful? Was it bad? Good? Exciting? Dull? And I get, ‘I don’t want to talk about it.’And she’d cut me off, then change the subject to something else. Hell, we’ve been married twenty-eight years. It was a long time ago and I...

Gay"Walter, are you sure about this? It is your last chance to back out." Grace asked with her heart thumping as they sat on the porch swing. Incredibly she almost felt that she wanted him to say no and that they could go back to being husband, wife, and son, and live like a normal family. A yes answer was going to change everything. "Yes," he said after a long pause. "I don't like it, but sharing you is the only logical way. I am not sure how it will all work out but we have to do...
