Not one man in a million would have allowed me the time without speaking. I opened my mind, let my gaurd down completely, relaxed. His silence washed over me. I stood, closed my eyes, breathed out the...
No one expected to be safe until this century, if you read a little history. Think of the thousands of years before- years with no law, when the sword ruled. No widespread system of justice; no immuni...
My favorite fantasy? You come down into my daytime resting place stark naked, he said, and I could see the gleam of his teeth as he smiled. Oh, wait, Bill said. That's already happened.
