Opening Bethany

By Gulliver Noir

Just out of a toxic relationship, James finds curvaceous young Bethany more than attractive. She’s intoxicating. The younger sister of a friend’s girlfriend, the twenty-something seems like a perfect balm for his shattered soul. Sweet, brilliant, un-jaded. The perfect antidote for Helen, the girlfriend from hell.

There’s only one catch. James isn’t interested in a relationship like any he’s known before, and while Bethany’s the smartest, most accomplished young woman he’s ever met she’s not yet fully comfortable in her own skin.

James is sick of compromises, sick of playing games that satisfy no one. He’s sexually dominant, he’s discovering, and Bethany just may be a perfect natural submissive. He knows they should take it slow, one step at at time...

...but the look in Bethany’s eyes, scared yet willing, is eating into James’ soul.

The Unexpected Party Girl

THE GIRL CAUGHT MY EYE AS SHE let herself in the front door.

No one could hear her knock over the roar of the party, and the doorbell was broken. The young woman had straight waist-long dirty blonde hair, blue eyes, full lips, and high-cheekbones; she looked somehow out of place at the off-campus party, and a little bit scared.

Her body was thicker than her face, as she shrugged off her winter coat, thrusting her chest outwards, heroic, like a Frank Frazetta painting come to life. She was a perfect hourglass, full jean-clad hips, top-heavy but not absurdly so, in a tight tie-dyed t-shirt. She looked familiar.

My heart sped up a notch. I knew her name.

It had been a week since I’d broken up with Helen. Seven long lonely days. I’m wise enough, at twenty four, to realize that a week isn’t a long a time. I knew I should probably not get involved with anyone, physically, for awhile. I was a mess.

I made my way away from the crowd near the front door, looking for my friend Ty, the party giver, putting some
