Magus shouted, “Claudia!”
There was no answer. Magus hit his forehead with the palm of his hand about the same time that Stephen shouted, “She’s on her honeymoon.”
“I keep forgetting that she’s on her honeymoon,” Magus mumbled. “Titus!”
“What?” Stephen yelled.
“You get the next client!” Magus yelled.
“Okay!” Stephen yelled.
A portly man walked into Stephen’s office. The top of his head was completely bald, but he had full hair around the sides. He sat down and folded his hands across his belly. Looking as if he was unsure about being there, he said, “I have a problem.”
“Before we get to your problem, there is a small matter of the fee,” Titus said.
“How much?” the man asked biting his lower lip.
Titus explained the fee structure and got a crisp ten dollar bill. Once he had filled out a receipt, he asked, “What is your problem?”
“It is kind of embarrassing,” the man answered.
Titus said, “That’s okay. We are very discreet here.”
“My wife caught me wearing her dress. She wants to divorce me,” the man said. He looked at Titus as if he expected to be beaten about the head and shoulders.
“Why does your wife want to divorce you?” Titus asked.
The man stared at Titus and then answered, “She caught me wearing her dress.”
“Did you damage it?” Titus asked.
“No,” the man answered.
“Did you look better in it than she does?” Titus asked.
“Are you making fun of me?”
Titus said, “No. She could be upset that you look better in her clothes than she does.”
“Oh,” the man said.
Titus said, “Of course, that wouldn’t necessarily lead to a divorce. I mean, a shopping trip could probably solve that problem. Can you tell me more about why she’s divorcing you?”
The man answered, “She wants to divorce me because she thinks I’m crazy.”
“Just a minute ago you were trying to blame it on the dress,” Titus said.
“She says that a man who likes to wear dresses is crazy.”
“Why would she call someone crazy just because their fashion sense doesn’t agree with hers?” Titus asked.
“I don’t know. I don’t think she thinks of it that way. I know that I didn’t think of it that way,” the man said.
“How long have you been married?”
The man answered, “Over twenty years.”
“You’ve been married that long. I find that interesting. Do you want a divorce?” Titus said.
“No. I love my wife,” the man answered.
“We’ve already established that she wants a divorce so there’s no need to ask about that. How long have you been wearing dresses?” Titus asked.
“Since I was a teenager. I used to sneak into my sister’s room and try on her clothes.”
Titus said, “That’s quite a while. How have you managed to avoid having your wife see you do that for so long?”
“I used to travel occasionally for my job. I’d get into a new town and buy some clothes to wear around the hotel room. I’d throw them away before going home,” the man answered.
Titus said, “I guess catching you wearing her dress came as a complete surprise to her.”
“Yes.”
“How often would you like to wear dresses?” Titus asked.
“What do you mean?” the man asked.
“Would you like to wear a dress every day or would once a week, once a month, a couple times a year, or once a year suffice,” Titus asked.
“I’d be happy with once a month,” the man answered.
Titus rummaged in his drawer and pulled out a sheet of paper. He put it into an envelope. He pulled out a couple of business cards and dropped them into the envelope. Pushing the envelope across the desk, Titus said, “Here’s your solution.”
“What is it?” the man asked.
“You need to visit a marriage counselor who deals with issues like this. I’ve included the business cards of several eminently qualified individuals,” Titus answered.
“She barely talks to me. How am I to convince her to go there?”
Titus said, “You have to point out to her that she may have overlooked all of the benefits of being married to a man who likes to wear dresses.”
“Benefits?”
Titus said, “Sure. Just think of how much easier it will be for her to go shopping for presents for you. No longer will she have to journey to the hardware store and face a confusing array of tools she can’t name and doesn’t know what they do. She can go to her favorite dress store and browse merchandise that she understands and appreciates.”
“I never thought about that.”
Titus said, “There are other benefits of her having discovered this passion of yours.”
“What?”
Titus said, “After being married for twenty years, I’m sure that you two were running out of things to discuss around the dinner table. Now, you have a whole new subject area to discuss. You both even have an interest in it. Talk about the chances of reestablishing communications late in a marriage, you couldn’t ask for something better.”
“That’s true.”
“I’m sure that when she thinks about it that she’s liable to come to the same conclusion as you,” Titus said.
“Thanks,” the man said. He picked up the envelope and left the office.
Titus watched man walk out the door and then started to write down his notes about the visit. Magus stepped in the office and said, “You handled that pretty well.”
“Thank you,” Stephen said turning around to look at Magus.
Magus asked, “How hard was it not to laugh?”
“It wasn’t hard at all. I read some of your past cases like you told me to do. I read one of your cross-dressing cases and realized that it wasn’t all that uncommon. I didn’t expect a case like that to come in so soon, but I was ready,” Stephen answered. He was pretty sure that if he hadn’t read that earlier case that he would have burst out laughing.
Magus said, “You did miss something important.”
“What?”
“You didn’t ask him if he wanted to have sex with men,” Magus said.
“It didn’t cross my mind,” Stephen said.
Magus said, “You will want to ask that next time. It can make a difference in what constitutes a good solution.”
“I can see that,” Stephen said.
“You did such an excellent job on that case that I’ll let you have the next one,” Magus said.
“Thanks,” Stephen said feeling pretty smug.
Magus had no sooner stepped out of the office when the man who had just left returned. Surprised, Stephen asked, “Did you forget something?”
Mel stood outside the house with her arms around Stephen. It was a bittersweet moment, an odd mixture of regret and anticipation. She was leaving him behind to begin a new adventure. She kissed him goodbye. “I’m going to miss you,” Stephen said. “I’m going to miss you,” Mel said. “I think you’ll like the program at UCLA,” Stephen said. “I think you’ll enjoy law school and work,” Mel said. She knew that she was trying to draw out this parting as long as possible. Now that the time to...
Irene asked, “What are you looking at?” Stephen answered, “You are wearing makeup.” “Yes, I am,” Irene replied. “Did you change your hair?” Stephen asked. “Yes, I did,” Irene answered. Stephen said, “I’ve never seen that dress before.” “It’s new,” Irene said. “Claudia and I went shopping last weekend.” “Irene is in love,” Stephen said pronouncing love more like ‘luuuv.’ Magus stepped out of his office and said, “Wonderful powers of deduction, Titus. Do you care to guess the identity...
Magus clicked his pen in staccato bursts while waiting for his visitor to reply. The pen produced a very irritating sound that appeared to distract the young man. Getting tired of waiting for an answer, Magus said, “If you cannot afford my fee, I must ask that you leave.” “I’m sorry. I just don’t have ten dollars,” the young man said. He did his best to look miserable in the hope that Magus would let him pay for his services at a later date. One glance at Magus let him know that it wasn’t...
Claudia held out her hand admiring the rather substantial diamond affixed to the band of gold on her finger. Denisa had been quite correct in how Phil would react to a special cheerleading session. It was amazing what a short cheerleader outfit could do to a man when the woman inside it wasn’t wearing panties. So what if it wasn’t the most romantic proposal in the world. He had followed through with the ring. The door opened and a smallish woman with a limp walked into the reception area....
With the end of the semester just around the corner, all of the college students in the area were under significant stress. The worst hit by that time of the year were the students about to graduate. On top of worrying about final exams, research papers, and homework, there was the matter of uncertain futures looming on the horizon. Those who were seeking employment and were without offers were desperate for anything to solve their employment problems. They were terrified that they would have...
Magus looked around the conference room. Titus, seated next to him, was busy reading the report that the oceanographers had submitted. Calvin Dorfman sat at the end of the table looking seriously depressed. Dr. Donaldson, one of the lead scientists in this effort, sat beside Calvin shifting nervously in his chair. Leland Bowne, representing the Department of Agriculture, was reading the summary page of the report wondering how he was going to tell his superiors about the contents of...
Stephen sat down in the chair heavily. Looking over at Magus, he asked, “Why did I take twenty-one hours this semester?” “So that you can get your degree in three years,” Magus answered. “That’s right,” Stephen said. “Are you signed up for your summer classes?” Magus asked. “Yes. Nine hours,” Stephen answered. It was going to be a busy summer taking three courses on the shortened summer schedule. “Excellent,” Magus said. “The final examinations nearly killed me,” Stephen said. He was so...
Looking worried, Stephen stopped at the front door of the house. He turned to Nestor and said, “Hagar, can you check out things in the house before I go in?” “Are you expecting a problem?” Nestor asked with a grin. “Yes,” Stephen said. He had several theories for what was happening, but no evidence sufficient to select one theory over another. Of course, the worst one was that Magus told her the key to getting him to propose. The problem with that theory was that it wasn’t very...
The two women entered the offices of Solutions Incorporated one behind the other. They were an interesting study in contrasts. The leading woman was graceful, elegant, sophisticated, and stunningly beautiful. The second woman was solid, blunt, earthy, and exceptionally plain. The second woman was studying the first woman like she was an unusual specimen at the zoo. Claudia frowned on seeing the two women. Magus had no appointments that day and he didn’t like clients to just show up at the...
Irene was seated at her desk doing absolutely nothing. She was kind of puzzled as to why they needed a receptionist. It seemed to her that she spent most of her time just staring off into space. The telephone had only rung about four times that week. They hardly ever had anyone come into the office. In a way, she felt that she was being overpaid. Of course, she wasn’t going to complain about that. This job was allowing her to escape from her abusive husband. “Stephen!” Magus shouted. Irene...
“Magus!” Irene shouted. “What?” Magus shouted. “Nothing.” Irene shouted. Magus shook his head and muttered, “That woman has a set of lungs on her and she has discovered that she likes using them.” “Magus!” Irene shouted. “What?” Magus shouted. “There’s a woman to see you!” Irene shouted. “Does she have an appointment?” Magus shouted knowing that he didn’t have any appointments for that day. “She says she doesn’t need one!” Irene shouted. “Who is she?” Magus shouted. “Stephen’s...
The first thing that Nestor did upon accepting the job at Solutions Incorporated was to quit his job at the Department of Motor Vehicles. After minutes of agonizing debate about how to best give notice, he chose to go with the short and sweet version, “I quit.” He did try to sound regretful, but the ear to ear grin and little victory dance probably undermined any appearance of sorrow at leaving he attempted. It didn’t matter to him that he looked a lot like a Russian dancing bear when doing...
Titus had just finished telling Magus about what he had discovered in solving the problem given to him by a middle-aged man visiting from Russia. It had started out simple enough with a missing persons report. He had opened a whole can of worms trying to find out what had happened. In the process, he had discovered an international white slavery ring in which attractive women were bought and sold like cattle. He asked, “What do you think?” “I think you’ve done a good job,” Magus said. He...
Titus sat back in his chair staring at the wall on which was projected his notes concerning his next appointment. There was absolutely nothing in those notes that gave him a clue regarding the problem being brought to him. If there was a person who defined moderation, then Charlie Black was it. He couldn’t imagine a more boring life. He pushed the button on his desk to lower the desktop and turn off the projector. “Titus!” Irene shouted. “What?” Titus shouted. “You’re appointment is here!”...
Magus was wearing dark sunglasses that were designed to distort his vision. He found that it made it a whole lot easier to deal with an attractive woman. He asked, “Do you have a passport?” “Of course, I have spent every season on the French Riviera since I was four,” Daphne said. She batted her eyelashes at him and thrust her chest forward. “Do you like to travel to exotic locations?” Magus asked. He licked his lips. “I’ve been all over the world. Last year, I went to Hong Kong, Paris,...
The woman entered the room on crutches; her right foot in a cast. She struggled for a moment to juggle crutches and purse while taking a seat. She had raccoon eyes that bore witness to a recent beating. With an expression of desperation on her face, she looked across the desk at Titus hoping he could help her. "Before we begin, there is the matter of payment. The first solution is ten dollars and a favor. We add a zero to the price for each subsequent solution," Titus said. The woman...
“I ran a campaign based on the promise that I would eliminate corruption in government,” Richard O’Toole said. He was a handsome man. The slight smattering of gray hair at his temples gave him a distinguished appearance. Not a single hair was out of place. He wore a nice tailored suit that spoke of money. His shoes were polished to a bright shine. “I read about your campaign,” Magus replied. “I was less than overwhelmed by your promises.” Richard ignored the snide comment about his campaign...
Gesturing to one of his office chairs, Magus said, “Please have a seat, Calvin Dorfman.” “Hello, Magus,” Calvin said. He sat down and looked at Magus wondering why he had been asked to come into the office. “I’ve been working on your problem,” Magus said. Surprised, Calvin said, “I figured you had given up on it.” It seemed to Magus that everyone expected instant answers to complex problems. Trivial problems were easy to answer quickly, but a hard problem took time to solve. He said, “I...
Executive Solutions By Michele Nylons Chapter Five - Homecoming "Natalie Styles," the woman replied. "I'm Natalie Styles, ex FBI agent, co-founder of Executive Solutions, and your sometime lover. A man in a white coat carrying a large medical kit came in behind the four paramilitary types. Two of them dragged the assassins' bodies into corner and covered them with the bloody blanket off the bed. "That'll do. We'll torch the place when we leave," Natalie said. Two of the...
“Stephen!” Stephen walked into Magus’ office and asked, “What do you want?” “I need you to run things until I return,” Magus said. “What?” Stephen asked looking around wildly. Magus said, “I have a little errand that requires my attention, and I need you to run things while I’m gone.” “I’ve got class later this afternoon,” Stephen said. The last thing he wanted was to be in charge. “I’ll be back before then.” “Cathy is waiting for me back at the house.” Magus said, “She can come...
Professor Sigmond had just finished taking roll. He was an older man in his early sixties and quite severe looking (he had a nose in the shape of a tomahawk). Even though this was only the second class of the summer session, he had already demonstrated that he would not tolerate any nonsense from the students. He looked down at his roll sheet and asked, “Mr. Osfeld, why do you think Marie Antoinette was so hated?” Without the least bit of hesitation, Stephen answered, “I don’t know.” “What...
Mel looked up from her notes and said, “Professor Sigmond wants us to write a paper on whether or not Waterloo really represented Napoleon’s downfall. What position should I take?” “There are only three positions you can take. Yes it did or no it didn’t or it depends,” Stephen answered. “I want to say that it did, but I think that is too obvious,” Mel said. “What major events before Waterloo occurred might have represented Napoleon’s downfall?” Stephen asked. “Well, there was the Russian...
Stephen dropped the huge report on Magus’ desk. He said, “Here it is.” “I can say one thing about it. It is thick,” Magus said eyeing the stack of papers. “Yes, it is.” Magus asked, “Why are you giving it to me?” “You said you wanted it,” Stephen said. “What is it?” Magus asked. Stephen answered, “It is my homework paper.” Magus said, “For which class?” “History,” Stephen said. “It is my report on a proper approach to understanding history.” “I wanted to read that,” Magus said...
“I am very unhappy.” “About?” Magus asked looking at the giant man sitting slumped down in the office chair. “Everything,” Nestor said. He sighed dejectedly. Magus said, “When was the last time you were happy?” “When I was in college,” Nestor said. Just thinking about his college days brought a smile to his face and he sat up straighter. “Did you go to a lot of parties?” Magus asked. “No. I don’t like parties. I liked going to classes,” Nestor said. Magus asked, “What was your...
Everyone was seated around the large conference table in the offices of Paladin Incorporated. Once he was sure that he had everyone’s attention, Magus said, “All management books that I’ve ever read agree that teams need periodic status meetings. Since I’m the best management type with whom I’ve ever had the pleasure of working, I now call to order our annual status meeting.” “I thought status meetings were supposed to be held weekly,” Poindexter said. He had a class on software project...
Claudia entered the office pushing a stroller. Irene looked over at the stroller and cooed, “Isn’t she cute.” “Thank you,” Claudia said with the kind of pride in her child that only a mother can achieve. Magus came out of his office and looked in the stroller. He frowned and shook his head in dismay. He said, “She’s a Gerber baby.” “That’s a bad thing?” Claudia asked. “She’s going to grow up to be a beautiful woman. You know how I feel about that,” Magus said. Shaking his head, he said,...
The dining room table was set with place settings for six when Stephen sat down and looked across the table at Jake. Nestor was doing something in the living room while Cathy and Mel were in the kitchen working to put together a fancy meal. Noticing that Jake looked a little depressed, Stephen asked, “What’s up Jake?” Jake answered, “I have girl trouble.” “Is there a problem with Cathy?” Stephen asked looking in the direction of the kitchen. He thought things were going well with...
As is common in a wedding, the groom is usually nervous about making a lifelong commitment to another person. It is traditional for the best man and the groomsmen to calm the nerves of the groom through the expedient measure of making bad jokes or recalling embarrassing moments of the past. Neither Magus nor Oscar, Leland’s father, were big on tradition and took upon themselves the task of calming the nerves of the groom. The best man and groomsmen stood around listening in disbelief to the...
Julia looked at the two men who had just entered the office. They were wearing dark suits with polished shoes. They each had a bulge where they would carry a firearm in a shoulder holster. One of the men said, “Have I ever told you how much I hate Titus?” “Only a dozen times,” the other man said. “For months the wife has been after me to take her to the opera. Every time I turned around she was jabbering about this opera versus that opera. Finally, I cave in and get tickets to The Magic...
My legs were like lead weights as I tried to have something resembling a kick; I kept my head down and powered to the finish line of the Ocean State Marathon in Newport, Rhode Island. It was only as I crossed the line that I dared look at the clock: 3:25:20; a personal best, but still short of the 3:20 qualifying time for the Boston Marathon. It was hard to believe that a short five years ago I did my first awkward jog, barely a mile, and now I had completed my third marathon. I was proud of...
I had just finished my undergraduate degree in psychology, and was about to pursue a Master’s degree in criminology, but I hadn’t yet decided which university I wanted to attend. My final plan was to enlist with the RCMP, but as a young woman who barely hit 5 foot 6, I knew that the only way to get accepted was by having a lot to offer. My grades were excellent, and I had been offered entrance to several programs. I was undecided between Ottawa University and McGill in Montreal. The program at...
CuckoldExecutive Solutions By Michele Nylons Chapter Four - On The Run "What the fuck is the dark web?" the woman asked sipping coffee sitting across from LeBron. True to her word, the night before, the woman had lived up to her promise to give Reese something 'special' for dessert. LeBron took the hint and went for a drive after dinner and Reese and the woman rolled around on the bed for good while. Reese became sulky when LeBron returned and was told that LeBron would be staying...
CHAPTER 1 Eva was dropping out of college because she thought the systems sucked and because she’d stupidly chosen to study biology only to find her interest waning faster than her staccato sexual interest in any guy. Now her interest in drama was returning. What a fucking mess, she’d fumed, coming to the ‘I’m quitting’ decision. Her counselor had summed it up neatly. ‘Eva dear, consider pulling the plug before you become dead in the water’. Clichés for sure but in Eva’s position they rang...
Executive Solutions By Michele Nylons Chapter Three - Reese and LeBron The woman was dozing fitfully when the iphone buzzed. She snatched it up and read the screen. 'LeBron' it said. She swiped the screen and answered. "Sheeit bitch you in some hot water now." It was the pimp from the hotel lobby and later back-alley humper, but of no use to her now that she could think of. "I thought you didn't know me?" the woman replied. "No you aksed me 'do you know who I am?'...
SRU: Magical Solutions By Morpheus Lester Greyson watched with great relief as the other students at the end of the hallway clustered around Carl Nielsol, threatening to shove him into a locker. Lester was just thankful that their attention was on someone else for a change. That this time it wouldn't be him that they threatened to shove into a locker. Lester knew that they never could really put him in one, since the schools used the small lockers, but that never stopped the...
Executive Solutions By Michele Nylons Chapter Two - State Forest The woman woke up late; a slither of light lanced through a chink in the curtain and fell across her face. She was sore. Her body protested at being tossed around on the bed in the seedy hotel the night before, her anus ached and the tiny pinprick in the crook of her left elbow itched. The effects of the drug she had been administered were wearing off and her mind was clearer but she was devoid of any memories...
Chapter 4: Future SolutionsI walked into the main office and there was a slick attractive woman standing at the large desk the receptionist sits at when you come in. She seemed to know me right away because she turned to me and put on a big smile for me.“Hi Logan. I’m from Future Solutions.” She stuck out her hand for a hand shake. Her outfit if you could call it that, almost seamed like it came from a Halloween shop labeled “Sexy Professional” of something. Her large bust had a decent amount...

Executive Solutions By Michele Nylons Chapter One - Amnesia She felt the sting of the needle and then her world went black. Later... Strange voices coming to her like from a dream, she couldn't move or open her eyes. "Did he fuck her?" "What?" "Did he fuck her? We need to make it look like he fucked her." "I doubt they'll run any DNA given the evidence we're going to leave but if they find a few different semen samples, it will collaborate that she's a hooker,"...
Claudia Alford was a very attractive young woman in her late twenties. Blond haired and blue eyed, she had kept the figure that had made her the head cheerleader in high school. Seeing Claudia in a bathing suit was often taken as proof that there was a God. Fortunately for the marriages in town, modesty prevented her from wearing anything other than a conservative one piece bathing suit. There wasn’t a man in New Millville who didn’t lust after Claudia and she knew it. Knowing it and acting...
"DADDY!?" Yes, there he stood, Greg Canaday, member of the Boston elite, bastion of conservatism, respected member of the bar. Staring at his, muddy, bedraggled daughter, clad only in an oversized tee shirt. "What are you doing here?" "I was invited. Someone named Hildy called, told me how well you were doing, how proud I should be of you, how much you missed me. So. I thought I would come down, visit, maybe get my fill of Southern cooking and hospitality." "Daddy, it's not what...
Hardy found himself in the office of an old friend, waiting anxiously for his appointment. Rabbi William Goldberg had retired, gotten bored, and opened a counseling practice, specializing in marriage and relationship problems. His work with veterans had been gratifying, but the stress and the daily reminders of the horrors of war wore on his soul. Between active duty when he was younger and twenty five years the reserves, he was able to retire with honor and full benefits. He truly felt God...
Just when you think you’ve got everything sorted, all systems running exactly as they should be, and everybody knowing and doing what they should, something will go wrong. Sods law. My old granny always used to greet this kind of thing with a sage nod and say, ‘shit happens even in Kansas’. And then she’d giggle. I have no idea why she said this, because to my certain knowledge she had never been to Kansas; in fact I would be surprised if she even knew where it was. She had certainly never been...
The door of Magus’ office opened and a middle aged man stepped out. He paused and looked at Claudia. He shook his head and started to take a step. He paused once again. Finally, he said, “That is a brilliant man.” “I agree,” Claudia said. This wasn’t the first client of Magus to call him brilliant. “A year ago a friend of mine in Washington D C told me to take my problem to Solutions Incorporated. I took my friend’s advice and went to visit Magus. I gave him ten dollars to solve a problem...
Karen had no idea what to expect when she showed up at Solutions Incorporated on Friday morning. The receptionist desk sat there in front of the door looking lonely and she assumed that would be her work area. She looked around the reception area thinking that it could use a bit of decorating. The three functional chairs and one potted plant just didn’t give it a very relaxing atmosphere. It wasn’t clear if that effect was intentional or not; all she knew was that it would be very...
The most recent edition of the local newspaper had eight pages. Odds were good that only one of those pages was actually going to be read by anyone. The whole first page of the paper covered a story exposing a price fixing scheme that affected the prices that farmers got for their crops. Farmers had been getting ripped off for years according to the article. The article named names and gave in-depth details about how it had been done. Hundreds of people were going to be sent to jail as a...
THE TURNING CONTEST is a week-long competition between five MILF best friends over who can turn more straight teens, college girls and women.The prize: The winner gets a weekend with the other four women's submissive 18-year-old daughters.Mrs. Carol WhiteCarol drove home from the luncheon with her friends, mulling over the bet the girls had just made. The idea of the bet: a week long battle to see who could seduce the most women was quite a fun challenge, although she was the only submissive in...
Boston Surprise by FRSWRITERIt had been weeks since I saw the gurls, their memory burned deep in my brain.Hanging around the house with not much to do didn't help either. I had been trying to call Jill for a few days, but she would not answer. About now I was thinking it was a dream and never happened.It was getting late and I was contemplating going out and trying to score, headed for the shower to get cleaned up and go. The water felt good and I was getting hard just thinking about what...
The Boston bus station is mobbed with people attending the fetish fair. I pace restlessly, glancing at Chris sitting sitting quietly, as we wait for You to arrive. We people-watch, amazed and amused at the variety of clothes we see. Engrossed in watching an apparent Dom lead his pet on a leash, I am not aware of your presence until I feel a sharp slap on my ass. Red-faced I smile and hug You. Chris stands and waits for You to greet her. Hugs done with, You gesture for Chris to sit back...
She stepped of the train, tired, miserable after a two day ride. The heat and humidity hit her like a physical slap. "Who the hell would voluntarily live here?" she thought as she dragged her cases behind her. No one offered to help. "So much for the vaunted Southern hospitality you hear about in books and movies. Maybe Hardy put the word out through the redneck grapevine." Thinking his name caused her a brief flash of pain. Yes, damn it, what happened was her fault, but he should...
She sat there, shocked so badly she couldn't even cry. He really was gone. She looked over at Bill. "Is it really over?" "I'm afraid so. For what it's worth, there was a couple of times when I thought you two would make it." "But why? I've grown up, changed into a better person, didn't he see that?" "Yes he did. He once told me how proud he was of how you matured, and the way you took to family down here." "Then why?" Bill sighed. What he was about to tell her would be...
Hardy woke with a start, trying to understand why he felt so happy. Then Gwen stirred and snaked a hand over his chest, hugging him lightly. "Good morning, my love. Did you sleep as well as I did? I have to tell you, it's the best nights' sleep I've had in over three years." He caressed her hair lightly. "Like a rock, you wore me out. In my defense, I'm still not quite up to my old self." She moved languidly over his body, rubbing every inch of skin she could into to...
Claudia openly stared at the elderly woman who had just entered the office. She was the poster child of misery. She had a split lip, a black eye, an arm in a sling, and walked holding her body to one side. It hurt just to look at her. Dismayed, Claudia asked, “What happened to you?” “I was attacked,” the woman answered. It was a more than an attack. She had been sexually assaulted after getting mugged. Claudia pointed to the door and said, “Go right in. Magus will take care of you.” The...

Journeyman Mage Faoril – The Free City of Baraconia, the Island of Birds The guilt, shame, anger, disgust, and self-loathing metastasized in me and then exploded out of me in a jet of uncontrollable magic, feeding on the vast reserves of power I absorbed when I debased myself with the crew of the Golden Hunger.

“We are two months away from the one year period allocated to the project, Sailair”. Zechariah chased him in a hasty walk and at the front, Sailair, with a troubled look, paid the entrance fee to the souk and rushed inside. Everything was wrong, ever since the beginning of the excavation, from the output of Ever Pure Solid to the concentration of the soil, to the proximity to tunnels No. 38 and No .39. Sailair encountered one hurdle after another and from his perspective the chief accomplice...
David Marks shifted nervously in his chair. The large man was studying him like he was a fish inside a fishbowl. It made him very uneasy.
