The Morning After
The early morning light streamed in through the bedroom window, falling on the golden retriever's face. He stirred, and moaned in pain as his hangover hit him like a hammer between the eyes. Blinking through the haze, he stretched, only to be surprised...
Domesticating the Wild Girl
"So you're the one who keeps destroying my traps." Connor looked up at the naked rabbit girl as she swung helplessly from his snare. For weeks, he had brought in hardly any game, bad news for a hunter who depended only on his own skill to survive. It...
A Roll of the Dice
Connor sat on the edge of his bed with a happy, lustful smile plastered across his face, wearing only a pair of simple red boxers that did nothing to hide his erection. Before him stood the cause of his excitement - his friend Maya, a slender tabby cat...
The Costume Party
Eunice hadn't had so much fun in a long time. With Halloween approaching, she had managed, through a friend of a friend, to secure an invitation to the best costume party in town. It had taken some persistent pleading, and a few favors, but the effort...
Turning the Tables
Hare was a great trickster. He had outsmarted every hunter on the plains over and over again, becoming a legend in his own time among both predators and prey. It was said that no one could match his speed, no sound could escape his ears, and no one...
Real Cowgirls Ride Bareback
Carter sprawled on his back, drifting at the boundary between sleeping and waking. Most days, the big Clydesdale horse would have forced himself to get out of bed and get moving, either to go to work or do some chores around the apartment. Not today,...
Repopulation
The Cataclysm left most of the world uninhabitable, and only the Great Dome allowed the survivors to cling to a tenuous existence. The Dome provided shelter, breathable air, safe food and water, and a measure of safety and order. Its foremost purpose...
Surviving the Snowbound Slopes
Snow and ice coated her fur as the red fox trudged up the frozen slopes. She was tired, hypothermic, and suffering from altitude sickness. Because she had spent most of her life in lower, warmer climes, she was completely unprepared for the challenges...
The Pact
The wind howled outside, periodically pelting the windows of the apartment with freezing rain. It made Rebecca glad to be safe and warm inside, cuddling on the couch with her friend Connor. She'd invited him over earlier in the day because she wanted...
Office Indiscretions
My ears twitched in frustration as I gazed at the computer screen. It was already past nine o'clock. I had stayed several hours late at work every day this week in an attempt to finish the big project we'd been working on for months. Unfortunately, as...
The Wrapped Present
Connor didn't know what to think. Sara had sent him a text earlier, telling him to expect a special birthday surprise when he came home. It had been in the back of his mind all day. Even though he had tried to discourage her from doing anything for his...
The Autumn Hunt
The wolf had been on her prey's trail for over an hour. The signs were clear and easy to follow - a hoofprint there, a broken stick here, a nibbled plant there. And over it all hung the powerful, musky scent of a buck in the rutting season. The scent...
