"Why?" his voice was a mere shaky whisper but the horror and disbelief that laced it stung me. I raised my head and looked at him, rivulets of tears running down my muddied cheeks. I opened my mouth to speak but only sobbing sounds of grief and disgust came out. He wouldn't understand. --- What she had was powerful and frightening. No amount of control could tame it, so her only option was to bury it at the back of her head and forget it even existed. But then there were stirrings, stirrings that forced her to deviate from her comfort zone and delve deeper in what she could and could not do. Stirrings that prompted her to discover a side she didn't know she had. (This is NOT a werewolf story)

Business and Pleasure is an erotica compilation of three stories about the lives of Andrea and Corey, Kacey and Jordan, and Lia and Nathaniel. In each of the characters' lives, they are involved with business, whether it is their careers, schooling, athletics, or even illegal business. However, sometimes pleasure impedes their business or pleasure fuels their business in ways that they never would have anticipated. Each story is about 3 to 4 chapters long. DISCLAIMER! Must be 18 or older to read. This is an R-RATED story/erotica. Meaning that there is strong sexual content with no sugarcoating, black outs, and no apprehension to the approach of sex. If you are uncomfortable with straightforward language, then this may not be for you. I write these scenes the way I do because erotica is an ART form for me, and I am a realist. I do not write these scenes just for the reason of just arousing someone. I will at least give you honest writing of sex/eroticism and how that plays a role with human connections, emotions, and love.
