			<title>The Curse</title>
			<description>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Greg stood silently staring out at the world below him.&amp;nbsp; He spent most of his nights up on the roof top of the apartment building; it gave him a sense of belonging.&amp;nbsp; As for the days, well those were to be avoided as much as possible.&amp;nbsp; It had been almost three year..</description>

			<title>Untitled Chapter twelve</title>
			<description> Suddenly I felt a chill creep up my spine; the air around me became very thick till it was almost choking me. Momentarily panic ensued me.  There was no way for me to escape this but I sensed that something was wrong; very wrong.  I rushed down the cliff side and ran; I did not know where I was hea..</description>

I&amp;rsquo;m guessing ..</description>

			<description>    &amp;ldquo;Jesse, no,&amp;rdquo; he yelled as he started to push me away.  I held on with everything I had, drinking in his blood until he pushed me away with his full strength.  I flew across the cave hitting against the other wall.      &amp;ldquo;What the hell do you think you are doing?&amp;rdquo; he ye..</description>

			<description>    Christian left as I stood there so confused, so empty inside.  I didn&amp;rsquo;t understand the attraction between us, it was so strong; but it wasn&amp;rsquo;t the same as the attraction I had with Matthew.   What I really needed was Charlie, I needed someone who could deal with me and my emotions..</description>

			<description>        When I woke I was back in my cave and both Matthew and Christian were there.  I didn&amp;rsquo;t feel like I had changed, but I was still tired and just a little bit dizzy.  I sat up slowly trying to get things to stay put around me.  Christian came over and sat down next to me and offered me ..</description>

			<description>   I grabbed money from the wall space and then opened an entry way that took me to the orient.  I had wanted a place where I would be able to find most of the spices right away; and here I had that option.  And I was able to find almost everything that I needed; except for the right money.  Eve..</description>

			<description>     Christian stood there with his fangs bared but still nowhere near as scary as he had been in the park. I slipped away from her and out of the grove, my curiosity was peaked but I knew better than to stick around. Once clear of the grove, when I was sure that I was out of sight I made an entry..</description>

			<description>     The plane trip seemed to go by too fast; I hadn&amp;rsquo;t really had time to get myself together.  In no time at all I stepped out onto British soil; it had been a long time since I had been here. Unfortunately it did not bring the comfort or joy I had once had here.    I was lucky and able to ..</description>

			<description>    I tossed and turned for hours, but could never get to sleep.  Finally I pulled all my blankets onto the floor.  Ironically even with all the blankets, the bed of leaves on the cave floor had been much more comfortable to sleep on.  I wasn&amp;rsquo;t sure when it was that I finally fell asleep only ..</description>

			<title>Untitiled Chapter Three</title>
			<description>This time when I woke up I was in a hospital room.  This made one time too many for losing consciousness; at least this time I didn&amp;rsquo;t feel weak as I sat up.  I looked around and saw Charlie sitting in the chair that was in the corner of the room; he was listening to his media player.  I picked..</description>

Her eyes held that familiar blank look of sincerity as she reached out to me.&amp;..</description>

			<title>Another typical day</title>
