Thursday Taster, February 6, 2014 ~ Compound Interest

This is a group for writers who want to show short excerpts of their awesome work every Thursday. All genres permitted and a comment on each others work will encourage everyone to keep going with WIP's. Our blog is Thursday Tasters so please visit our link to view the excerpt's of the other participating awesome authors.

Today is a reprint of a Tantalyzing Tuesday Teaser that I have been asked expand into a full story which I have decided to do. See what you think and let me know by leaving me a comment below the individually listed participating authors links before you leave me to read their posts. Follow the link in the title to the original post for comments.


The Senator-Elect’s wife walked into the room with an air of confidence and gardenia. Standing in silk, satin and Versace, she started to remove her kid gloves, a look of distain casting a dark shadow over her beautiful Mediterranean features.

“Bobby”, a deep breath of ill-placed privilege followed.



“Peaches….” he smiled with assurance.
“I am addressed as Mrs. Lancaster, now, Bobby. What do you want?”

“I want the return-on-my-investment. And I am here to collect it.”

“You can’t possibly be serious. ”

“You must think I am…you’re here,” he replied, crossing his legs.

“It’s been….How did you find......?” a small crack in her voice revealed the broke, pregnant college freshman she once was.

“……twenty-one years. Does it really matter?"

Bobby rose, closed the distance between them in but a few long strides, and sighed. He placed his long black fingers at her throbbing, alabaster temple and gently pushed the soft-auburn curls from her face then traced the elegant curve of her cheek down her face, along her jawline to the hard-pounding, heated pulse in the small of her throat, where he placed his thumb. She flushed with panic.

"You owe me $350.00 and twenty-one years compound interest. So….it’s you or a Senator.”

Tantalyzing Tuesday Teaser, January 28, 2014 ~ Compound Interest

In search of Tantalyzing Tuesday Teaser inspiration, I reflected upon the conditions, and results, of turning to the wrong people for help when one is young, inexperienced and new to the world. There are predators who lay in wait for the right opportunity to become the wrong person you turn to when in need. This is a short 200 word story based on the photo below about a past that comes back to collect on debts owed.

Please leave me a short comment, if you feel moved to do so, then indulge yourself in the musings from other creative authors who have selected a photo and written a 200 word teaser to titillate, tempt, terrorize or thrill you in one way or another. Some of us are dyed in the wool erotic writers so be forewarned........you may be headed into seedy, saucy, sexy waters. Enjoy each and every one at the link below or listed below like a wanted poster, but...Enjoy!!
