An Excerpt From "Original Sin"
Paranormal Short Story.
Blurb
A New Neighbor: The aura and appearance of Lea Jackson immediately attracts Adam Peters. Enthralled, his mind fills with plans to fulfill uncontrollable desire. Considerations for wife and family quickly evaporate.
The Loving Wife: Adam’s behavior is nothing new to Jessie. Facing tumultuous change to marriage and family, she cautions Adam about continuing down the path to adultery. Distracted by Lea’s charms, he ignores her pleas, plunging blindly ahead.
The Aftermath: Lea and Adam consummate their affair. In the afterglow, promises to meet again are exchanged. Adam returns home to a scene, setting the stage for the beginning of an ending.
Twelve Lines:
Adam's First Sight of Lea.
Two cream-colored calves, daintily pressed together at the knees as they rotated into view from the tinted interior, provided the first sight of Lea. A pair of trim sandaled feet planted on the driveway. There followed a flash of blonde hair, the color of beaten gold. She shook out the mane falling over and around a set of straight shoulders. Someone inside the car drew her attention. As she turned to face whoever was there, I got a peek at a sculpted heart-shaped butt.
Quickly, lest I was caught staring, I directed my gaze in another direction, returning to the yard work. The companions, a middle-aged couple, followed her into the house.
Five minutes later, while emptying the grass clippings into a flower bed for mulch, a shadow fell across the ground ahead. “Mr. Peters?” the melodious voice uttered in conjunction with the arrival of jasmine scent.
Profiled by the sun behind, her head was all oval, high cheekbones, and almond-shaped gleaming eye. “Adam Peters,” I replied extending a hand soiled by honest work.
