You The still air suddenly vibrates Like song notes, Pouring over me In an exhale of possibility, Pulling my chest higher Rope burning my wrists Every pore on edge And I hear A sharp inhale Your low hum My head lolles back Throat exposed Nipples tight Cunt slicking my thighs Balanced on my toes, I feel your gaze Print on my flesh Lines of my skin Waiting to be coerced To rise, to fall, to curve Into your touch To be every...

The lights dimmed, the phone’s glow more pronounced on Paige’s face. Huge brown eyes, thick black hair. Long, thin fingers with shiny mauve nails and half a year’s income glittering on her finger. Posh as hell and all mine, except when she was stuck on her phone. “Babe,” I murmured. “My idiot brother is letting them run around the house on a hoverboard.” I laughed. “They’re fine. He’s watched them before.” “He’s a man. Wh...

The sharp edge of the dresser bit a line into her ass and palms as Abby wrapped up her report. Saul sat on the bed in front of her, elbows on his thighs, hands clasped between his knees. Eyes as dark and readable as the night sky. His thick, inky brows pulled together, drawing stacks of lines between them. Thunder rattled the motel window behind the curtains. Rain splattering the pavement just outside grew loud enough for...

This is fucking insane. I ran my sweaty hands over the steering wheel. Cold air blasted from the little vents in the dashboard, drying out my eyes. Refusing to rub them, to blink, to miss her, I felt around the controls until my fingers found the knob to turn down the AC. The sun was a murky beacon being snuffed out by grey clouds. Wind whipped and shuddered the stocky palm trees framing the front of the courthouse. A per...

Mud sucks at my feet Trickles between my toes As I follow your beckoning voice. The sustained sound of percussing water grows with every step And between dried branches of fir trees, I find you. That smile, Easy and light. You reach for my hand Lead me down steep terrain Until the canyon bursts into heaven Blue skies beam down, The sun winking through stray clouds, But the temperature cools. Water dribbles down the stone...

Lane Rain pattered on the aluminum roof over my head.  Arms crossed over my chest, I stared at the water pooling and rippling with tears at the edges of the dark and gutterless street.  Looked down at the beads dotting my pink toenails and wondered if raindrops were like snowflakes, every one different than every other.   I wished I was water, always changing but never broken because there was always a new form to take, a...

Still air breaks under my breath As you join me on the mattress  Knee to knee  Face to face   You level your gaze And wait, the embodiment of patience and kindness The antithesis  of everything I fear   And I know it’s safe   I rip the snarled storms From my blood And let them go Wherever fear goes When it creeps from dark corners  and is thrust into light   under your focus your kindness I collapse   My head in your lap,...

I am the form  In the skirts of cold, Toes nestled in the lake bed As my pale arms stretch on the murky water, etched by hell And expecting no less   But today The ripples grow without wind, lapping at my jaw Cresting my ears Dancing in rivulets of joy to a cadence of throaty murmurs   And I awaken, Stretch my withered muscles Feel the pop of every brittle joint The thump of my heart fills my chest Hot blood  Rushes my sk...

Charlotte’s eyes burned as she stared into the little video box on the laptop screen in front of her.  She watched a policeman extract a thin laptop from a safe in the wall, one of three Brumble had stashed.  In the study, another ran his fingers along a thin line of caulk on the drywall next to a bookcase, courtesy of Sersha last night.  Subtle beacons in a perfect house. The little clues had never failed.    Today Sersh...

Fully impaled with his thickness, she gasped.  She looked down at his knowing brown eyes, the lips ghosted with years of intimate promises.   She rocked her hips.   A fever burned in his gaze.  His cock surged.  Every thrust blended the tendrils of sunset and red poppies with their past in a kaleidoscope until freedom, joy, and pain burst inside her.  He drove deep, nourishing her with cum. She collapsed on his chest.   H...

  Arms open wide under the hum of burning stars,  Breezes nose My silhouette For your scent   I fill my lungs with air Steel my muscles   Wind rumbles To a raging roar Flames bullet  From the sky, Tiny fireballs  Spearing my flesh Tattered dress flaying  My screaming wounds   I close my eyes, Unable to feel your touch Unable to hear your voice But our vows remain, Etched as ever   The earth knows I know You know   There’s...

Cold bit Arianna’s face as she squinted against the sun. Gloved hands shoved into the front pockets of her puffy coat, she looked for a form in the mountains. A dot on the snow skirts, something moving in the shadowy tree stems. Ari exhaled, steaming the crushing silence. For three days, she’d watched the horizon. The snowmobile she’d parked next to the cabin seemed to beckon louder every sunrise. She balled her hands int...

Dave peeked around the living room entranceway to peer at the front door.  When he saw the blonde hair, the eyes looking at him through the decorative glass, he stepped back out of sight. Shit.   “…Richelle’s argumentative and abrasive, just like her mother.  Neither have a God damn filter.  She’s going to be a horrible influence on Dawn,” his wife said over coffee that morning, just after their daughter left for school....

Pulsing walls of bodies and sin Line our altar of flame   Strangers’ hands On my skin On yours   Swirling their cum with my sweat Lining the curves of muscle and bone In the flesh you own   Your thrusts clap like snare drums Through my desperate, moaning song Shadows strobe in huffs over your body As you fill and release me Then flickers of light possess your eyes   “Suck him.”   Adoring Jealous Dominant Over the cascades...

Mia buffed the huge wooden cross in the white basement, deltoids aching as she remembered last night’s muffled cries.  The debased satisfaction she knew the clients always felt with Baun.  She’d hated every moment of listening to it, though a part of her always wished the mess she cleaned was messier.   Sighing, she wiped her brow with her forearm.  Took a few steps back, looking at the cross from every angle to make sure...
