_For Gabriel Clyde and Seth Drake, who know all too well_ The tall white Borzoi sat at his midnight table outside the café, enjoying the strange and magical sensations of the fragile light all around him. It was and it was not like twilight; it...
Giving Matty Milk
"Yes Mrs. Evant." I said dutifully every few sentences trying not to stare a her chest while she smiled at me. She reached out and pat my head as I wiggled my tufted ears, I knew she found it cute. I'm Chris a fourteen year old lynx living three houses...
Nightlife at the Beach

Ice Cream At The Pier
Dear Peter, Every detail of your face was breath-taking in the dying light. I know it sounds cheesy, but how else am I supposed to describe it? You're the wordsmith, not me. I'm just the dumb jock who comes down every year for his summer vacation to...
Good Friends
"I cannot believe I let you talk me into wearing this," Claude muttered with an agravated tone. He motioned down to the light blue speedo around his waist, which, consequently, was all he was wearing. Well, with exception of a chain and dog tag...
