She walked into the cool condo out of the bright sunshine. She wore a fine sheen of sweat from the hot Florida sun. Her swimsuit clung to her in an irritating but also sexually arousing manner. The sudden darkness of the room rendered her momentarily blind after the glaring sunshine from outside. She stood still a moment to allow her eyes to adjust to the dark, chill apartment. Just as her eyes began to focus, a soft kiss...

Jean has been my guitar student for the past year. She is thirty-five (+) years old and single (at least there is no ring on her finger). She is slim but well-built with long fingers and graceful movements. One cannot discern her age by her looks. Jean is pretty but understated in her appearance.

You turned your back and we spooned. Our favorite thing. Your skin, cool against the heat of my...

The old house stood silent at the top of a high hill. At night or in stormy weather, it looked especially creepy; enough to send chills up one’s spine. There are stories whispered about by the town’s people. No one ever goes near the place. This is where our story of Cindy’s adventure begins. Cindy’s friends had dared her to spend the night in the old Forrester Mansion, a deserted and dilapidated three-story gabled monstr...

He arrived home after a long and frustrating day of work. As he put away his work things and stored his lunchbox in the cabinet, he noted with curiosity that the house was quiet; almost eerily still. He went in search of his wife. Walking up the stairs to their bedroom, he reflected that they had not spent much time together lately; his job and her women’s club meetings had kept them distracted and apart. He missed her no...
