Alexandra and Kevin made a point taking a break from their busy careers and social lives one Sunday of each month. Kevin called it Lazy Sunday. In typical fashion Kevin declared rules for this special day. He had a thing about rules Alex learned soon after they started dating. There were lots of rules in his place. Alex didn’t mind since most were sensible. Lazy Sundays had a special set of rules. Rule number one? No TV. So they typically spent the occasion reading, sunning, working out,...
Alex cleaned up in the shower and slid into bed next to Kevin, snuggling up against his warmth. She murmured her pleasure. Kevin was having none of it, he demanded a story. Alex retrieved her laptop and opened a folder called freshman_pics, and started a slide show.“Ok. Here, now you can drive,” she said, handing the laptop to Kevin. “These are from my Freshman year, obviously.”“Wow, is that Wendy! She’s so young,” Kevin exclaimed. His fascination and focus on her beautiful friend amused Alex....
IncestAfter Kevin had painted her eyes shut, Alex had entered her own little dark world, getting wetter and wetter as first she sucked his cock and then as she sat passively while he took pictures of her cum covered face. Just giving him the camera had nearly brought her off. Each click of the camera increased her arousal. Pictures were proof and proof is power. Kevin now had pictures that could seriously damage her reputation. She felt small, helpless and… happy. ‘Alex… who is M?’ repeated Kevin...
It was a warm spring day when Muriel and Alexandra stepped off of the school bus. They walked to the gray two story house where Alexandra lived. She pulled her house key from her shorts and they went inside. Alexandra's mother was working this afternoon, so the pair had the run of the house. They went up to Alexandra's room where they took off their shoes and flopped on the bed. Alexandra noticed that Muriel still didn't have the bright spark in her eyes like she usually did. "Are you...
Alexandra shuffled slowly down the long hallway. The drab linoleum tile was cracked and missing in places. The two toned green walls were faded and depressing. A number of girls were sitting in chairs or shuffling along, attired in the same ugly print hospital gown and robe, and wearing the same blue slippers. It was 1950, and this was the third time she found herself in a place like this. The third time since her parents had caught her that night two years ago. Alexandra had known for a long...
HistoricalKevin lay semi-spooned over Alex as she finished her story.“Unfair!” he exclaimed with mock outrage. “You can’t just drop a bomb like Clayton plowing your mom, and then stop. Keep going, you bitch.”“Now be nice,” Alex admonished.Kevin popped up to get water for them. He filled two glasses then carried them into the bedroom, handing Alex hers. “You recovered pretty fast from... all the ick,” he said. “Do you suppose running Phil off gave you an advantage.”Alex sat back against the headboard feet...

It was just before ten o-clock on Friday evening and James Henry was sitting alone in his bedroom nursing his scotch. His usually tidy brown hair, was ruffled from him consistently running his hands through it. He had arrived at tonight’s gala event late and unaccompanied. He had stayed only an hour before heading home, alone. He was not in a good mood, and hadn’t been for the past month. He couldn’t keep his thoughts off of Alexandra Morgan. It kept him in a continuous state of anger and...
I was in John's Escalade, being delivered to my second gangbang bukkake party. I was excited, eager to get there, when he dropped a bomb on me. "It will be a little different tonight." "Mmmm? Meaning what?" "Well, you're not a rookie anymore, we're trying another format." I didn't know what he was talking about. He clarified, "There will be a second woman in the mix, Alexandra." I felt a surge of anxiety, my head full of questions. "What am I supposed to do with Alexandra?" I said, with too...
Group Sex“Pleasure before pain.” That was what Alexandra had said as she slowly removed her dress. There was a knock on the door and the club’s owner, Maxine de Vraie entered to Alexandra’s command. Maxine, whom I knew although we did not acknowledge the fact, was accompanied by two naked women, both tall, and slender, one blonde, the other brunette. “Balkans,” said Alexandra with a sneer. The Russians hate all the former satellites. In fact, most of us hate almost every other nation including the...
LesbianIntroduction: A tale of an over-protective brother who only wants to make his sister feel better. Tell me why I cant go out with him, Alexandra said. Because I said so, Paulie replied, matter-of-factly. Thats not a reason, you jerk. Alexandra shot back. Alexandra was mad. She was tired of dealing with her over protective brother. After growing up with Paulie for all of her 16 years, she had learned there was no way of winning when it came to any of the fights the two of them had. He was only...

Alexandra was mad. She was tired of dealing with her over protective brother. After growing up with Paulie for all of her 16 years, she had learned there was no way of winning when it came to any of the fights the two of them had. He was only a year older, but he acted as if he were the wisest person on earth when it came to the welfare of his sister. Maybe that was true, though. Maybe Paulie really did know best when it came to the welfare of Alexandra. “It doesn’t matter if it‘s a...

Alexandra was horny as a skunk. Of course she was always eager to get back to David at this time of day, but for the last hour it had gotten bad. A warm glow welled up from her crotch that made her mind dreamy and unfocused. Regardless of the raised eyebrows among the women on her staff, she would have rushed back to David if Claire hadn't asked her to see Charlie Roemer, for what she didn't even know. She didn't realize just how horny she was, though, until Charlie turned up. She...
One of the major problems in my life is an irresistible impulse to fall head-over-heels in love with complete strangers. This may not seem much of a problem, but when you combine it with a deep seated insecurity that makes me sure that they’ll never be interested in loving me back, it produces quite a few problems. The first is an unwillingness, or rather an inability, to express my feelings. The first time I fell in love was when I was fourteen. It was with a girl who used to go to the school...

The Present Day Mira Destovsky and Ivanova were dead and gone. Mira’s younger sister, Alexandra, had assumed command of Mira’s business empire. My name is Jelena Miskoba. I was trained by the former KGB as an assassin. I only graduated when the Soviet Union was in total disarray after its collapse. I had learned the arts of cold-blooded murder and excelled in them. I was not like some of my peers who orgasmed when they killed. It was not a sexual thrill for me, it was a job. I was also highly...
LesbianAlexandra: the Demon Destroyer, Episode 1.1 By Limbo's Mistress The first demon was dead before the other two even realized I was there. Being occupied with their attempt to terrorize and horribly murder the girl on the ground before them, the Hell-Spawn trio didn't see me emerge from the shadows that permeated the deserted playground. When the brilliant flash of light that followed their compatriot's beheading, and subsequent disintegration into brimstone-scented smoke, they...
Her parents were addicts. There would always be people coming and going from the Daddario house, many of them looking scruffy and unkempt. Her parents were so poor, there would be days where she hardly had anything to eat. This was sad and challenging, but the true hell of her existence started early in high school. She had just gotten home from a day at school, when she heard her father shouting for her to come to their den. He wasn’t alone, there was another man Alexandra hadn’t...
The next day I woke up happy. So I’ve finally done it, I hummed, better late than never. I could smell her on my finger tips, even after I’d washed my hands. I was sure by then that she must really love me. And I thought that she must be as impatient to see me again and get intimate once more as I was So I waited for her to call with a certain amount of anticipation. Wanting to hold her and touch her again. And to make love to her. To feel her come under my fingers again would be such bliss....
I finished my beer and set the empty bottle on the rickety table. “I’m gonna wander on up the street and see what’s happening. Anyone wanna come?” I announced, rising from my seat.“Yeah I’ll go, but I gotta piss first,” Sarge said, draining the last of his beer.“We’ll catch up in a bit,” Digger added.I nodded and made my way outside. The cool night air felt good as I turned to admire the historic station to my right and tried to imagine what The Drive was like a hundred years ago. Depot Drive,...
TransWeaponizing Estrogen Vol. 1: Alexandra © 2017 by Tori St. John Chapter 1: A Happy Accident It's not that I hate men. It really isn't. The way that I see it, in my attempt to make the world a better place, I made a strange discovery: It turns out that many men are far better off emasculated. Men don't realize this simple truth, of course. Which is where I come in. Utilizing just a few simple techniques, my track record for achieving my intended outcome is remarkably high. ...
“Breakfast is served. Everything a growing girl needs,” Kevin said, cheerfully walking in the bedroom with eggs, bacon, coffee and OJ.. Alex sat up sleepily and arranged her pillows. Kevin put the tray on her lap then kissed her gently on the cheek. “Thank you,” she said. Then she stretched into a yawn, “Mmmm, What time is it?” “Not quite Seven.” She picked up a piece of bacon and waved it at him accusingly, “That’s a little early given the night we had don’t you think?” He looked on...
"Jacqueline Melissa Roberts!" my mom yelled. "You have about 5 seconds to get your ass to this table, or you're in BIG trouble!"I slithered through the labyrinth of chairs, presents, boxes, and miscellaneous debris in the living room and made my way to the table. "I'm in college now, Mom," I told her. "If you want me to keep visiting you on holidays, maybe you shouldn't yell at me."I was of course k**ding. Mom was just upset that no one else had shown up for Thanksgiving and taking it out on...
On Friday I arrived about fifteen minutes early and stood on the street anxiously looking up and down, unsure as to which direction she’d come from. Under the clock outside Easons bookshop on O’Connell Street is a popular place to arrange to meet. Firstly it is a well known landmark. Secondly it is in a fairly busy and public place. And thirdly from the point of view of anyone waiting there are a number of buses that stop there, so you can pretend that people are not looking at you wondering if...
It had been over a year since I moved in with my best friend, and lover, Alexandra. It wasn't known we were lesbians, just that we were roommates. We were at a party to kick off the second semester of sophomore year. I was having a great time, chatting with friends I'd made, dancing occasionally, and chowing down on the chips and delicious home-made guacamole provided. I could see that Alexandra was also enjoying herself. Things were going well... until I saw her expression suddenly...
A very attractive woman, svelte body, short black hair, gorgeous legs, was window-shopping in Bond Street. She wore a long dark plum classically styled camel coat over a tailored grey suit worn to just above the knee. But what first drew my attention to her were the deep crimson high heels that she wore with black tights or stockings. ‘Alexandra’ I said to myself. She was my client this evening; a new client and I usually like to check out new clients out beforehand. By observing them secretly...
We had been out on the lake for a couple of hours now. I was really enjoying her company at this point. We decided that we wanted to take a quick dip to cool off, so I dropped the anchor and we dove in. We spent some time playing around and splashing each other. Not only was Alexandra one of the most gorgeous women I had ever seen, but she was really fun to be around. I got out of the water and on to the boat first, and then helped her back in. Taking her by the hand, I pulled her into the boat...
Oral Sex“Alexandra? Are you okay?”, asked Rone, who had stopped eating to look at me. “Ugh, I feel really sick. I think it’s the food.”, I replied, clutching my stomach. “Food doesn’t seem too fond of you either.”, Kai smirked. Rone glared at him foully, before looking back at me. “Please excuse yourself if you feel that bad. Wait for me in your room.” I nodded to him before dashing from the room ... Sitting on the end of my bed, I trembled, knowing what was coming next. I dreaded hearing...
When David Knight came to, he found himself slouched in a chair in a well-appointed office. A mature, but very attractive woman watched as an attractive nurse removed a hypodermic syringe from his arm. He head was still clearing when she spoke. "Good afternoon, Captain Knight. Let me introduce myself. I am Alexandra Milan, the director of WOPI. My sources told me you wanted to visit WOPI. Welcome to my parlor." "Said the spider to the fly," Knight thought. As his eyes focused he saw a...

Andrew ended up taking what money little money she had. Since the divorce and her now ex-husband spreading the gossip about her creating such a scandal for her image...
One "BRAT!" "TOAD!" Well, don't all 8-year-old boys think all six-year old girls are brats? And don't 6-year-old girls think 8-year-old boys are toads? Well, most of them, anyway. That's my experience. And those were our respective ages when Alexandra's family moved in next door to mine. I was 8, she was 6. However, I don't remember ever calling her a brat. And I don't remember her calling me a toad. That was her twin sister Cheryl, who still is a brat and probably still...
Alexandra is a beautiful young woman, with dark hair, a perfect body, and eyes you could get lost in. We had met each other awhile back, and we seemed to hit it off right away. We had gotten together a few times over the last month for dinner, or coffee, but it never went further. During our last conversation she told me how much she loves boats and being near the water. ''What a coincidence,'' I said. ''I have a boat.'' ''I would love to see it sometime." ''What are you doing this weekend,''...
Seduction“Well, was I right about Halloween being fun?” Alex asked Kevin.“Yeah, I’m... I’m kind of blown away. I’ll never look at Cynthia the same way again.”Alex looked askance at Kevin. “No questions about my behavior?”“Well, how do you feel about it?”“I was worried, but my disguise worked, so I reveled in it. Looking back? No regrets,” she said, then gazed searchingly in Kevin’s eyes. “How about you?”“Me?”“My story, does it change the way you look at me?” Alex blushed shyly. Kevin shook his head....
IncestWendy: 4:40 PM “Okay, Okay, hold your damned horses,” Wendy yelled at the door. After ringing constantly for half a minute the door buzzer finally relented. Fresh out of the shower and dripping water all over her apartment, Wendy checked the time as she ran for the door. Andy was twenty minutes early. Wendy jabbed the intercom button, “that better not be you, Andy.” Jerking her finger off the button, she added, “because I’m getting tired of your fuck ups.” “It’s me, can I come up?” “Alex?”...
This is the 4th chapter of the series. Edit: Made some modifications to the story to stream line it and clear up dialog. Kevin lay semi-spooned over Alex as she finished her story. “Unfair,” he exclaimed in mock outrage. “You can’t just drop a bomb like Clayton plowing your mom, and then stop. Keep going, you bitch.” “Now be nice,” Alex admonished. “All this talk makes me thirsty. Can you be a dear and get me a drink?” she said lazily. Kevin popped up to get water for them. He filled two...

“I’m home,” Alex yelled as she closed the door. “In the bedroom,” Kevin called distantly. Alex put her briefcase down on the fourier table, then headed to join her future husband. She thumbed her engagement ring, loving the novelty of it. Alex found Kevin toweling off his head leaving the rest of his lean muscular body wet. “Mm, dripping man. Just what I need,” she said, hugging his moist body from behind. “Careful, you’ll ruin your suit,” Kevin cautioned. “Casual Friday at work today,...

Boredom began to rule my mind. I painted, fighted, read, and danced nothing could fill the empty spot in my mind. I needed something new, exciting. Still the presence of something positive was going to happen. As I sat in the garden staring into the yard a figure approached me. “I did not ask for visitors.” I turned my head and looked to the figure. There stood a beautiful woman. “Who are you?” She knelt down facing me. “Well Alexandra I have been sent by your husband he says you grow...

"Dad!" I yelled and he just sighed a growl seeing this isn't my first time complaining. My name is Alexandra. Stupid enough I have a twin brother Alexander. I question everyday if I woke up to the damn 14th century. Even though my parents seem to live it. I live in a fucking castle. A castle! What teenager lives in a castle with a dungeon, pillars, knights in armor, sword displays, even brick ovens! I burn every meal I make. My only freedom from the past is my room, my...
I tried desperately to shiver out the cold, but it wouldn’t work. My navy blue ears lay flat against my ashen hair, almost the same colour as the snow that was thrust ferociously down upon me. As I had said before, no one had passed that day. As soon as the first few flakes fell, shutters were slammed closed, doors were locked and smoke billowed from endless rows of blackened chimneys. So, we were all awfully startled when the Demon King himself came striding around the corner, his son in...
The rest of our day carried on as usual we got the munchies and some Soda, Some Pepsi, some coke, sprite and other stuff. we walked back to my place and i opened the door, i invited her in and looked at her ass as she walked in first. my boner had risen to it's full length as i watched her hips sway side to side her ass in a tight blue mini skirt. God i loved that sight. "Oh? What are you staring at Jess?" Damn this girl caught me. "Nothing I-i was just admiring you're um...shoes?" Really...
I met Catherine when I was 16 and she was 14. She had a high school crush on me, a shy, skinny boy who she had seen playing basketball in her neighborhood park. We were introduced by a mutual friend, and spent a few hours that first day just talking on the swings, until her mother called her in for dinner. Catherine was a beautiful girl, with deep brown eyes, dark brown hair, and an hourglass figure even at her tender age. Though we dated for a few months, we never went farther than kissing...

IncestWhen Catherine arrived, I met her at the door and gave her a huge hug. Callie came bouncing down the stairs and joined us in a group hug. After we were finished, I carried Catherine's bags up to her bedroom and helped her unpack. "So have you two been good?" Catherine asked. "No, Mom, I'm afraid that we've been very bad" was Callie's response. "Excellent!" said Catherine. "I was hoping you'd say that." "Mom, I wanted to say thanks for allowing me to fuck Bob this weekend. He's been the subject...
Straight Sex"Bob, I have a favor to ask of you." Catherine and I had just finished a long and hot fucking session; now both of us were trying to recover our breath. "Anything for you. What is it?" I responded. We had been seeing each other for over a month now, and not only was the sex hot, but I could see this relationship lasting for a long while. "You remember that I have to be out of town for three days next week, right?" "Yes, three days that I'm not sure I can survive" I said with a smile. I said...
Straight Sex“I planned to pop the question at dinner tonight,” Kevin told Alex as they got in the back of the limo. Alex extended her hand so she could examine her sparkling engagement ring and smiled. Kevin sighed at the sight of his bride to be. In addition to the ring, she wore a dress he’d selected specifically for the evening. A red form fitting sleeveless dress with a bandage effect which created lines to accent curves and draw the eyes up and down her form. Two inch straps held up the dress...

I started to quit all my sports as I enjoyed my time at home way more. I was still a virgin at the time and afterschool was the free time me and Andrew got to ourselves. On Wednesday I had rushed home put my backpack down and instead of going to my brothers room I ran to have a shower as I was all sweaty after gym class. I walked upstairs to find my brother sitting in my room on my desk looking at pictures of me with his tight shirt on which showed his man boobs and a sock wrapped around his...
