Our story starts in a classroom much like any other. This classroom is decked in the school colors of blue and white. The walls have many posters with quotes pertaining to science such as ‘The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible,’ and ‘The chance of the bread falling with the butter side down is directly proportional to the value of the carpet,’ and ‘It is inexcusable for scientists to torture animals, let them make their experiments on lawyers and politicians’.
It was a moderate sized class of about 30 people. The teacher, Mr. Murphy, was lecturing on a topic vaguely about something to do with chemicals and their interactions with people, while the seniors went all about their own business not paying any attention to his lecture. Inside we can see the typical cliques going about their business, cheerleaders, preps, jocks, emos, hicks, and even more than a few nerds. The stenciled label on the door reads ‘Intro to science 101.’
This college prep class just happens to be the one that most students need for their final science credit to graduate. This is normally not a place for odd things to happen, but this is Mr. Murphy’s class after all. We shall focus on the start of it all, one girl named Jordan. An average girl of all respects, with brown hair of decent length, blue eyes, just a tic this side of cute. She awaits the end of class in a spaghetti string top that holds, quite nicely, an average rack, an almost trendy belt, long black pants that fit well enough, and a pair of well-worn but taken care of white and black sketchers. So now that you know what the catalyst looks like, let us see what unfolds in the small town of Kudzu.
A few here may remember the time back in the early 1970s when the only way to watch porn movies was to go to a theater that showed XXX movies. In a large city, there were usually a few that a person could go to, one theater mainly showing gay films and the rest straight porn.One night I was feeling particularly horny and thought of going to one of these theaters to see what type of movies they were showing. Never having been to a porn movie, I was already excited as I drove the twenty minutes...
I’ve been watching you, flirting with you, but you have been resistant. I could tell you had thoughts about me, but did not have the courage to show yours cards. I decided it was time to take matters into my own hands this time. I knew you were working late and figured I could slip in and take my shot. I walked into the building, thinking to myself… she is yours, just go after her. I would like to act as though I have all the confidence in the world, but like others, I have my doubts. I...
I was never happier than when giving head. You should know that. Whether I’m wrapping my lips around a dick, licking a pussy, deepthroating a hard cock, sucking on a clit, or taking a pair of balls in my mouth, I can never get enough. I had been particularly been looking forward to this one; I’d taken her home after catching her eye at the bar, buying her a drink or two, and very gently sliding my hand up her skirt under the table, watching her glaze over slightly as my fingers brushed the...
LesbianBella was wearing a black and white checkered wrap dress. The deep-v neckline teased her ample cleavage. Without seeing it, I knew she was also wearing a half-slip and lingerie chosen to please me. I pinned her to the foyer wall as soon as we entered her house. We kissed. I grabbed her soft ass.She had a midwestern look with fair skin, dirty blond hair, and blue eyes. She was fit, but not slender, with a big sexy ass, smooth thighs, and nice bell-shaped tits. I took her hand and led her to...
CrossdressingThe day was amazing. I was totally in love with the city, something I never imagined possible. I had always seen myself staying in small towns, living on a large plot of land, but I was changing my mind rapidly now.We had seen so many sights, from the Ground Zero Memorial all the way to Chinatown. I couldn't even decide what my favorite sight was. I knew my favorite part of the day was just being with John. Honestly, I think with John whatever we had done that day, I'd have been happy just to...
Love StoriesAs Kurt caressed Emma’s sweetly pronounced bottom, she realised she had never felt so feminine before, despite her newly freed cock standing stiff in nervous anticipation. She looked at the powerful male and the leering male audience; the few females there would now witness her being used as a woman. Kurt’s large stiff cock rubbed against her belly as he moved her round to a large and convenient futon, stroking her soft and slender hairless arms as he savoured the sweetness of her. He had her...
Frank Williams was just about through with his shower, and was letting the warm water beat down on his shoulders, when he heard door to the bathroom open. The shower scene from "Psycho" flashed through his mind, but he was quite sure it was not some maniac with a knife. He was right. "Daddy?" a sweet young voice said to him. He recognized the dulcet tones of his darling daughter, Mandy, and his cock started stiffening."Hi, Honey. Why don't you come in and join me?" The thought of what she would...

The game had reached a critical moment, and we watched with bated breath, ready to cheer or jeer, when we were interrupted by a crash from upstairs and the sound two angry female voices raised well above respectable levels. 'I said, don't touch my stuff!' 'I didn't touch it-you shouldn't leave it laying around in the hallway!' 'If you'd just watch where you're going-' 'Girls!' I bellowed, 'come here!' After a beat of guilty silence, the twins stomped resignedly down the...
I suddenly woke up. With my elder sister I was sleeping. Under the bed sheet she was holding me tightly. Her legs was circled me & her hand my chest. Her thigh was rubbing my penis & her big boobs were pressed with my left hand. She was slowly moving her hip touching my hip & her boobs. I can’t imagine what is happening. But she was breathing loudly & my face was burning. She was hot. I was feeling her without her knowledge. She put her finger in her thigh joint. Her finger was moving must be...
Incestby Jake Spear Chapter 1 Deb worked as she hummed, packing for her family's summer vacation. She had started a week ago but, with 4 children and a husband to pack for, it seemed like a never ending task. "Just one more load of wash and I'm finished," she thought to herself. Deb's husband Mike had spent the last two nights, after work, packing the mobile home with supplies for their trip. Tonight Mike would load the last of the clothes and supplies into the mobile home, and...
In the weeks that followed that hot summer’s day, Harry would continue to fuck Angela now and again but only when I was there and always in front of me. It became a bit of a ritual that Angela would be sucking my cock as Harry filled her pussy with his prick in the doggy position and when she was near to coming, he would insert a finger or two into her arsehole. I would come in her mouth and she would show me my sperm on her tongue before swallowing it and Harry would fill her cunt with his...
Lyle woke up on Amy’s bed surrounded by all the girls from last night, all of them asleep. He closes his eyes for about 15 minutes before he reopens them to the feeling of someone sucking his cock. He looks down and sees Alexis sucking his cock with Ashley fucking her from behind with Nicole’s strap on. Carmen leans over just a bit and starts making out with Lyle before she slides up putting her pussy up to his face. He starts licking her pussy fast. “Ohhh yes Lyle, yes lick my pussy good.”...
NovelsI was at home alone on my laptop, while I talked to my friend on the phone. It was a known fact he liked me, but I had made it clear awhile ago that I didn’t want a relationship so soon after I’d moved out on my own. ‘Breeeeee,’ he said into the phone, rather loudly, when I was silent for a moment. ‘What?’ I asked. ‘Guess what I’m doing?’ when I heard him chuckle, I definitely assumed the worse. ‘Oh god, you’re so gross.’ I hung up the phone on him, kind of relieved that our conversation was...
The Slavering, Chapter 06 "Good morning! This is Cherry, your mobile assistant." Hease groaned. He stretched. Text appeared before his eyes as he heard Cheri2's voice. "Awake? Good. I've been trying to wake you for 43 minutes. Rattle that ass. The shuttle leaves in 17." Hease tapped his specs to see the time. He'd fallen asleep at his work station again. Playing Slavering 2. "Baka," Cherry said and texted. "I just told you the time. Move. Splash hair tonic on that...
Jenny and I and a couple of her best girlfriends Anna and Monique are relaxing in the hot tub and we have champagne and several of the girls are starting to make out. I look at Jenny and say I think there is something wrong with this hottub, I think we need a plumber. I wink at her so she knows exactly who i am talking about. She looks and says ooh our friend from the pool and I nod yes. She calls him and without telling him who we are we say its really important an emergency we need his...
"You and I have a few things to discuss, but for now I'm tired and need my rest. I'll see you in the morning." He walked to the stairs and paused for a minute. "And Jerry," He waited till Jerry looked his way. "You should have thought about the consequences before you made that mistake." ---------- Jerry was taken to a room on the other end of Kalona's massive dungeon. Unlike Kali's room Jerry had nothing but a bare matress in a rather cramped room. His escort...
The two of them sat atop the bed talking and drinking for nearly an hour enjoying each others company conversing openly and freely anything and everything crossing their minds. Toni now more than a little tipsy from the combined assault of the wine and champagne, caught herself secretly sneaking little peaks of his wonderfully built physique as he likewise benefited from the extremely risqué nighty she'd worn allowing him quick unintentional shots of her incredible full bosom as well as her...
In case you are wondering, this is a James Bond gay spoof.Riding in a personal escort vehicle and in the back, I felt nice and cozy in my suit and white tie. I looked down as I sat in the large seat and could feel a nice poking in my black trousers. A nice tent rising up to meet me as I got comfy in my dress slacks. Damn it felt so good to be horny!The portable screen in front of me shut on and a white haired woman named B appeared. I almost closed my legs at the surprise. I was never used to...
It had been a while since Dave had been to the Dragon (the local pub), and he wasn't all that surprised to see a whole host of new staff. However, he was surprised at the quality of one of the new staff members. Jenny, he'd heard one of the locals call her, and she was certainly a treat for the eyes. Short, with blonde hair that was cut short just past her shoulders, and a body to die for. She wore a short black skirt (that barely covered her ass) and a white top that allowed a good viewing of...
InterracialHe couldn’t help but smile at her genuinely surprised look. As they sat on the edge of the wooden planks of the pier with their legs dangling over the edge he removed her little hand from his cock and replaced it with his own. He leaned forward and spit down on the head of his fully erect pecker rubbing it in making it appear even harder as it glistened in the breeze. “Watch this… I think you’ll find it interesting!” He began stroking his wet cock up and down...
Lisa Jackson was the top cop. She was a super cop even. She had taken down the most dangerous criminals and she looked sexy doing it. She was a 6'2", blonde, blue-eyed, 34DD titted woman. She had an IQ in the triple digits and she could fight and beat the best of them This made her arrogant and stuck up because she knew all this was true. She love intimidating people. No one could really do anything about or they would get talked down to or beat up. Lisa was walking down the street when...
What happened that night!A husband gets drunk and his wife wants to have fun with his friend, who is already fucking her husband’s sister in the woods…It was in the middle of summer and that meant it was time for our usual annual camping trip. My friends and I had been doing this since we were teens. Now, most of them are married, and we don’t spend much time together anymore, so we really look forward to this trip. While my friends have been busy getting married, I have focused all of my...
“Pull out, pull out!” “Oh fuck!” My brother shoved his dick deeper as it erupted inside me. Spraying my walls with all of his sibling jism. I wanted to scream at him, but his orgasm brought on my own, and it was a big one. I dug my nails into his broad arms and clenched my legs around his waist as I shuddered through my own mind-numbing climax. It brought my brother to the hilt as he was still shooting his semen in me and I couldn’t be contained as it made me cream even more. My brother...
“I'm going out with Richard tonight, we are going to the Montha, you've been there, that new place on 17th. street. I need to wear something sexy but I don’t know what.” “You have a closet full of sexy clothes, I’ve seen you wearing all kinds of hot stuff. So what do you want?” I repeated. She looked up at me “Help me, I can't decide what looks good. You've been there, what do the girls wear?” I stepped back from my sister-in-law-in-law and looked her up and down. She...

Messed Up Dawna Tompson Aug 2020 Rated X A man tries to deal with an abrupt and unsettling change to his anatomy. - - - - Jesse unclenched his shaking hand and disgustedly tossed the sheaf of papers onto the dining room table. "I can't believe it. I just can't believe it. What an idiot that doctor is." He paced the kitchen trying to think but he was too upset to work through anything rationally. He turned and picked up the papers he'd thrown on the table. He sorted...
Ah, damn, it was raining. Carter didn’t exactly feel like going out in the rain, but Taz could care less about that and needed out like five minutes ago. Well, it wasn’t like he was the one depressed, right? There was no point for him, as a dog, to mope around the house, in slippers and pajamas. Could dogs feel depressed? He wondered. “Wanna go outside?” he scratched the dog’s fluffy ears. Taz placed his head on his master’s knees and stared up, right into Carter’s eyes. He whined. “I...
The drive home was peaceful enough. Not too much peak hour traffic which meant that I could cruise home quite happily with the music on, the windows open to let the breeze in and a chance to contemplate the events of today. I certainly would need some time this evening to share with Joan everything that had happened. I hoped the school meetings wouldn’t last too long. I was looking forward to a nice shower and love fuck with Joan later. I got home to find Joan had put some clothes on – a...

Valerie dropped me back off at the theatre and gave me one last kiss before she drove off. What had started out as a trip to the movie theatre for a double feature of horror movies turned into something better; I had just lost my cherry to my buddies sister. I had missed the first feature and the second one was halfway over so there was no point in going in and I didn't want to get home too early so I instead peddled to a local burger joint and treated myself. As I sat outside on one of the...
First Time“That’s enough for me. Time to head for home; told Kay I wouldn’t be late tonight,” Ed said, as he drained his pint glass and placed it back on the counter.“On a promise are you, mate? Don’t want to turn up that chance,” Chas chuckled, “But if the old brewers droop cut in, you only have to give me a call, and I will be right over!”“You will have to beat me to it, Chas, and my legs are longer than yours,” Kevin chimed in.Ed smiled at his two best friends; they had been together since school...
Group SexI would like to thank Ms. Sharon Johnson who had the courage to edit my poor spelling and grammar. Thanks to her, this story is much better and her hard work is appreciated. Thanks Sharon! This is a long love story, so be prepared. It was written from both the man’s and the woman’s viewpoint. The story was put together for the most part from e-mails that were shared between them as they wrote the story. As the story builds and moves forward, it establishes the relationship and develops the...
As the springtime was turning into summer I’d just about completed the changes to my life that I felt were necessary at this juncture. I’d found a new home in a different location where nobody knows me, and I was now between jobs as I contemplated my future. As a confident and gregarious person I had no qualms about seeking fresh opportunities or making new friends, which as it turned out, happened much sooner than I expected.It was only a matter of days after I’d moved in to my cosy new...
TabooThe Hot Wife Brian, Katie and Nick enjoyed the great steaks, wine and ambiance of SW Steakhouse at Wynn Casino. It was a classy place with a great bar with an outdoor area showing off the beautiful landscaping but Brian was glad he managed to spend only $750 on the dinner and wine. And Katie hadn’t pulled any sexual stunts with Nick, which he had sat through the entire dinner fearing. Perhaps she had gotten that out of her system earlier with Karl and Wally at the bar? Nick’s phone rang and...
Deep throat queen of the pornos Im 42 years old and have been the deep throat queen of the porno field for over fifteen years. I often reflect back as to how I got to this position. I am 57 tall and weigh 130lbs. My breasts are not overly big but are a nice size just between a C and a D cup. I exercise regularly and even at 42 they are firm and my own. This is my story. My mother died at my birth. She was only thirteen at the time I was told. I dont know who my dad was but I know he did not...
By the time she returned home at midnight, Darla was both emotionally and physically spent after having had to work extra late, because of a car accident, for nearly six hours without so much as a 15 minute break. Darla was even more saddened by the fact that all the sex she now craved, and which she believed Pierre could giver her, would now have to wait weeks, possibly even months. Maybe, she thought, she make another doctor's appoint, as checked her messages and found only two from...
On a wet rainy Wednesday night I decided to have a Google and see what NSA (no strings attached) sex I could find. After stumbling upon the NSA sex section of Craigslist, I thought I'd pop an advertisement up and see if it really does work or, if all of the adverts were a scam. The title of my advert was 'Great Oralist seeks another oralist'. The advert was short, but I did say I would give the best oral ever and I added some sexy pics. A big statement I know, but I've been told I'm pretty...
Oral SexAfter Mike came he just fell on top of me keeping his cock buried in me. Steve was at the foot of the bed just looking and jacking off as fast as he could and within a couple minutes he was shooting cum all over himself. We all laid there a few minutes catching our breath and not saying anything. Steve finally broke the silence by telling me to take Mike downstairs to the guest bathroom to get cleaned up while he went to the man cave to fix a few things up for later. As I stood I had cum...
I heard the loud honking outside. I grabbed my purse, told Peter I would see him at the party, and headed out. Mom and Dad were at the club having a long romantic dinner, and Adrienne was at a party, then would be spending the night with her friend later. I hurried down the walk, as well as I could in three inch heals. Kyle hooted, and I paused to do a sultry look. I ended up cracking up, and headed to the passenger side of the convertible. He kissed me, and then off we headed. We went...
My heart was pounding in a symphonic surge as I lingered in front of the hotel room door. I checked and rechecked the metal plate bolted to the rich, dark oak. Number 2412. Yes, this was definitely the right room. The hallway corridor was empty. The dimly lit sconces glowed invitingly along the richly textured walls. They had led the way from the elevator of the lushly swank boutique hotel, The Hazelton, just like beacon lights leading me towards the precipice of a decision I still wasn’t sure...
ReluctanceThe following evening Cathy asked Sierra to go to bed early so that she and Jessica might talk. Sierra was reluctant, since it meant being separated from her mistress, but when Cathy insisted, Jessica assured the girl it was all right. "It's very important or I wouldn't ask," reassured Cathy. "Then why not tell me too?" argued Sierra. "I will tell you, in the morning. Right now your grandmother and I have to decide what to do." "You'll tell me in the morning?" "I...
Brick HardRon might be the kind of guy who would intimidate a lot of queens at first sight. He is a working man, has been all of his life, standing 6’ 2” and a bit over 210 lbs but not much fat, just all muscle. His burly, hairy body shows the effects of years of hard labor in the hot sun. As a mason and later as an independent masonry contractor he has been burnt by the sun and refined by heavy lifting it to a fine figure of a man. Even at the age of 73 he is still able to keep up both at work...
“Remember: sexuality is not meant to be stale. Sexuality is fluid!”Miss Grunee was enthusiastic to speak in her favorite park, to her small audience, “You’re not heterosexual. You’re not LGBT. You are who you are!” the lady ended her monologue with a standing ovation.Next to the group, PJ was doing his reps of traction at the bar. 'Yeah, right,' he thought, ironically.PJ has been proudly gay since he discovered sex: he grew up as a small cub in a small town where he was the only jock in...
BisexualThe Grand Master’s boots squeaked on the polished floor as he made his way down the lavishly furnished hall towards the summoning chamber. The room was located in the Western wing of the lodge, and it was outfitted for use by Masonic wizards and summoners, ready to be used at all times of the day or night. One never knew when they might need the urgent help of a demon. He pushed open the large, oak door as it creaked on its aged hinges and stepped through into an expansive room that was...
After suggesting to Paul that we take our fucking back outdoors, I began to plan out a trip to the cabin. The next morning I made a call to our lake neighbor, Ben. After the third ring his wife Jean answered, “Good morning this is the Dover residence, Jean speaking.” I replied, “Hi Jean, this is Dennis from next door. How are you this morning?” Jean said, “Oh, hi Dennis, I’m good. How are you? Are you here now?” “I’m doing quite well and no I’m not there now, but was thinking of coming next...
Gay MaleIt is Monday, Janes starts her new job with the Marines, motor pool dispatcher. Well not really! Jane pulls her car into the motor pool parking lot, walks into the motor pool, out the back in a black staff car to a secure building across the base. The car pulls into the basement garage, this older guy opens her door, guides her into the building and into this big room. She sits down, the man who had guided her from her car says “ms.

Witnessing the Complete Degradation of Cassandra and SierraBy The Qmoq (c) 2010Story codes: M/f+, F/f+, M+/f+, anything else with /f and /f+! exhibitionism, humiliation, S/M, bondage, serious, consensual, watersports.Synopsis: Two buxom women consent to be degraded, teased, fondled and screwed by a mixed audience of perverts over a long evening.The arena most reminded me of one of those Victorian teaching hospitals, where there’s a corpse in the middle of an oval arena with a couple of tiered...
For Hortense Lanier, the questioning didn’t drag on at all. She was fully engaged in it and it let her keep her mind off her pregnancy (still in the early phase, anyway), as well as keep her challenged and busy. It was a thrilling sort of thing, to be honest. She loved every minute of the experience, and when she emerged from her testing process at about 1200 hours, seven hours later and just in time for the mess, it felt as if time had just flown by her. Walking over to the testing center...
It was getting late now and Jenny would have to leave before her mom or my wife got home. But, her body was small but it was perfect. I wanted to fuck her so damn badly as she lay there fully nude her head resting on my lap! She was facing up at me. My cock was still sticking up in the air between my thighs right next to her head, actually her ear right now. I asked: “Have you ever wonder how it would feel if something bigger was in your pussy fucking you rather than my finger Jenny”? She...
In the late 70's I met a handsome and hung black soldier from Aberdeen Proving Grounds in a bar that catered to mostly a black clientele.EXACTLY my kind of place.I had prepared carefully before I sashayed in that night swinging my creamy white ass atop 4 inch heels.Smoky eye shadow above a dark green that brought out and emphasized my hazel eyes,red lip-stick matching my toes and long acrylic fingernails.My bra was filled with Double DD silicone breast forms,that when warmed by my body...
Chapter 4 He slept longer than expected. It was probably due to the stress he was dealing with. It’s not often we find ourselves confronted by something once thought of as being fiction, only to discover it was indeed real. Lost in thought he picked up the watch wanting to try it on but didn’t. He liked it but didn’t want to wear it, thinking he’d be making some sort of a concession if he did. He wasn’t ready to accept vampirism let alone what appeared to be an invitation to join them. The...
The Role Exchanger: A New Phase of Study (Part 1) Note: I am an admirer of Morpheus and all his work. His Role Exchanger stories are the obvious inspiration for this story. I can only hope that I do his visions justice. Also, the tg elements are only barely uncovered here, but I have every intention of incorporating that element more decidedly in chapters to come. The shimmering globe descended on the strange world again, its random wandering leaving in its wake curious and...
“Please tell me she didn’t have you try to get her pregnant,” Desmond asks and Stuart shifts between me and my heavy hitter. “No she said not to. She only wanted anal which was different but she said she was waiting for permission from Katy to have your baby,” Stuart explains with honesty. “Desmond calm down he didn’t know and was told it was okay from Katy,” I explain when Stuart interrupts. “Well she said that she messaged Katy to say it was okay and then there was a message on my...
So After the first time sucking my friend off, We have done it few times since.One time I will never forget, because I let my mouth write a check my ass had to cash....He looked at the original dildo that we used to get the girls excited. Made some comment like "its not that big" I told him if he could take that in his ass I would let him have mine.WTF was I thinking? Anyway that toy disappeared right before my eyes.I'm not sure if I was more shocked at the fact that he just popped it in...
After clearing my fuzzy mind and escaping from Big Tyrone hands, I finally got a taxi and headed home to my beloved husband.I looked my watch and it was almost midnight. The taxi dropped me in our driveway and I looked at the front door.My hair was a real mess, so I tied it up in a ponytail. The house looked dark; I thought my loving hubby would be waiting for me upstairs for sure. Before climbing the stairs, I went to the laundry and took a towel, to clean my exposed pussy lips. Big Tyrone had...
