“A Different Arrangement” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

I stand before a full length mirror asking myself how I ended up in this mess. If only I didn’t snoop around in that blizzard…then I would still be a lowly secretary. The dress I wear is white and mermaid style. My make-up is perfect as is my hair. A house maid has me sit and proceeds to pin a veil to my head. You want to know why I am marrying my boss’s son. Well I can share what I did wrong to suddenly end up in this ...

“Lost but Found” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

“It is said to be another balmy day here with highs of 102 degrees…” I turned off the alarm quickly as it went off. It wasn’t one of those times that most in this state even like to get out of bed this time of year. It was summer time heat like no other, but it didn’t stop anyone from adulting.As I try and set up, a headache seems to strike between my eyes and I roll to the floor as I attempt to get up. “Ouch”, I yell and slowly get up. Where the he...

“Stranded ” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

           It has been a bad month for me. I started out in what I thought was a good relationship and then it went to hell so quickly. Finally I spent the money I had in hopes of getting away from Brad and bought a pilot to fly me in a Piper M350 from Boulder to Helena where I have family to safety.           What I didn’t count on was how obsessed with me Brad had become…&...

“The Wedding...that was not” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

The city of the Over Lord, Lament, was fully decorated. All over the city, there was Cray paper of gold, silver, and platinum and the decorations to match. There were no flowers as there were none in the winter available for display. Still, artisans worked and created fake ones from various materials available. People from all over Icella were coming in droves to witness the wedding of Kaavel and the mysterious Eve.There were nobles that came in droves to sit as close as they could so that they could ...

“End of the 9th Aries War” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

(A stand alone featuring a story to be told. Based off of Why me but not directly)It was a cold day, I remember it well. My name was Raven back then and I had made it to my twenty-fourth year that time before someone awoke my memory. It is always someone that did it and that life time it was a series of near death experiences. The symbol on my back was right where it always was, the exception was that in that life time Pisces was the symbol in the middle of it.    &nbs...

“A Night Later (Theta Story line)” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

(Continues from Taken)(Small gap in the story because the gap was too graphic for the site)It was about five hours later when she woke up, typical for the huntress when she did get some sleep. There was no window so she could not even see outside to determine the time of day. Still with the bit of pain she felt in her lower body, she wondered when it would subside and if he would take her again at some point. The lady pulled herself off the bed into a sitting up posi...

“Why Me?” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

It is the year 2100 and they keep saying that the Age of Pisces is drawing to a close and judgment is upon the human race. These witches come to town every so often and make an appoint to try and preach their cause. It doesn’t help that there are people that actually follow the other three mega factions that come here too. They all say the same thing.           “The Chosen One is the one who will decide our fates. If she remains free and among the...

“The Right Circumstances (Pomp and Circumstances Part 3)” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

He drew her back to the plush seating and pulled her across his lap. Their lips met again and a make out session followed. To say that he was enjoying himself was an understatement. He did develop feelings for her as he looked after her. Big tough little witch was quite vulnerable when she was hurt. It melted him and made him want her all the more. Her virginity was safe from his bite, but not from his desire. Even if he takes it, he still won’t let her go. Even now with her having given into the ki...

“Chance Encounters in Love” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

Quinn sat solemn in a bar in Vegas. It was not every day that he would come to a place like this and sulk, but he was contacted by his lawyer and told that if he didn’t have a wife by years end and drop the whole play boy motif, he could find his company ripped out from under him. He was shocked at the idea simply because he was the owner and paid the board to run it for him. Now they wanted to find reason to cut him from it.           Oh sure he could...

“Harvey” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

Auntie Mia died on me in a car wreck. It is the holidays and everyone was in shock. Here it is a Yule and we sit for the reading of the Will when it gets to the paragraph about me. That was when things took a really odd ball turn and I finally came to realize why Auntie’s bird was here. She left everyone else money and possessions, but she left me…                “To my niece, Catalina, I leave my sweet M...

“Hard Hitting Truths” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

(This story follows Ignorance was Bliss)That panicked her even more. What did he mean by like him, sire, and new born cub, that was what raced through her mind; that and the curiosity as to why being in close proximity to this man making things ache that she never gave much thought to before. Her heart began to pound as this man got her back to the tent and unceremoniously dropped her in the center of the cloth walls. Strangely she landed on all fours, hands and feet, even though it stunned her bu...

“Sweet Tooth” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

(A little side story base on the Theta story line...Omega Huntress Kaitlin Santiago and her handler are featured)Her hair was red and her eyes were indigo. Her attire was simply a green shirt and a pair of black jeans with tennis shoes. She didn’t know why they were here. It was something for actual police, not them or so she thought. Jericho seemed interested in the break in, but she really wasn’t.            &nb...

“Price of the Blood Line Theta” by Amy Hodges-laurenzo

“Speak to me of the Theta Bloodline”, asked a shadow that stood in the room.           The man was prone and high on sodium pentothal. He began telling them what they wanted to hear. With a breath, he began…           “It was all a mistake.           Granted with the darkness at the door of...
