Smoko

Yeah, it really shocked the shit out of me, I don't mind telling ya. The moment I opened that side door on my van and my eyes adjusted to what I was seeing inside. I was a builder see, and I was proud of my van. I had a custom pain job and all,...

A Means to an End

Brighton 2008 _I felt mum's heartbeat. It always felt like it was trying to beat its way out of her chest when she held me like this. Mine was too. Her coat rubbed against my chest, and mine on hers, and I felt her mane falling over my...

Murum Aries Attigit

**Murum Aries Attigit.** _To these things Caesar replied, "That he, in accordance with his custom, rather than owing to their desert, should spare the state, if they should surrender themselves before the battering-ram should touch the wall; but that...

Riding The Bull

"You agreed to it Morgan. So take it like a stallion, instead of a whiny little asshole, will ya?" I looked over at Hank, my employer and, at the moment, unlikely saviour. The big bull had a huge grin on his muzzle, even if the words...

A New Appreciation

I never gave my boyfriend credit for creativity before. I guess I never gave him credit for a lot of things. That's kind of how I ended up in this mess. I mean, he is a cop, so he should be good at investigating shit. It turned out he was damn good at...

Needs

It had been a long day. They all were for me, my first year of university was not going well, mostly because of money. At eighteen earning enough to keep yourself and study full time was not an easy thing to do especially in one of the most expensive...

Back on the Horse

The music was too loud, the clientele too young, and the drinks were too fucking expensive. Apart from that, I was having an awesome night. Standing by the bar I sipped my beer and eyed up the androgynous beauties sharing their witty put downs and...

Serendipity

I sat just close enough to hear every fucking noise, and smell the scents too. I had worked out what I liked by now, and for this part, I loved being just a few feet away, enough to get the full view, not too far so I missed the details. The colt was...

Starry Starry Night

For some reason the sky seemed especially beautiful tonight. Cloudless, the stars stood out like little diamonds and the sounds from the pine forest around us spoke of nature in all it's glory. The sky was the best though; we had been treated to a pink...

First

The humidity had finally done for me. I had been so long in an English climate, with occasional sojourns to Spain for the obligatory package holidays. Nothing in either place properly prepared me for this though. I waited in the vast hall and looked...

Motivation

I adjusted my position carefully. It wasn't easy getting up here in the dark, but it was a necessary evil. The room had to be dark for my purposes. Perched precariously on a storage cabinet, I managed to find a position that both had me at the right...

Diplomacy

The King's palace was not what I was expecting. In my home city the palace was loaded down in gilt and cloth of gold, rich tapestries covered the walls, and expensive scents emanated from bowls in every room where incense burned slowly day and night....
