Suzie’s House #62: You Can and I Can’t?

    Last week, and the week before, we caught Vin and Miranda in bed together.  It was not their first time to do it, but it was their first to get caught.  Suzie was a bit tipsy at the time, but not so far gone she didn’t know what she was seeing.       Suzie hacked off the tops of two carrots with a vicious swing of a cleaver.  She knew darn well a cleaver was overkill for […]

Suzie’s House 61: A Compromising Position

We’re going to backtrack in time a little bit this week.  Last week we ended with Suzie and Drew coming home from the Cardinal.  This week we are starting while they are still there. Vin jerked awake at the sound of the burglar alarm going off.  He found himself still sitting in the living room with the remote in his hand, but the TV was off along with all the lights.  He almost called out to Miranda or Suzie that […]

Suzie’s House 60: Taking Advantage

She was killing him, all soft and warm and leaning against him.  Her eyes were a little blurry with the beer and the lateness of the hour.  He told himself not to let her feathery touches go to his head, or rather his lower regions.   She couldn’t feel too good about men right now, after having run into her ex, yet she hadn’t gone cold on him.  Drew hoped her less-restrained reaction to him had more to do with […]

Suzie’s House 59: Chance Encounter with the Ex

 Welcome Fiction Friday readers and Girls Scout Cookie entrants.  This is the post to leave a comment in for the chance to win Lemon Chalets. When we left off last week Miranda had gone to the Caribou bar in search of the men who shot Vin and run into the CIA agent Christina instead.  Now we return to the Cardinal Bar where Miranda left Drew and Suzie slow dancing.  Suzie could feel Drew’s body plastered to hers from breast to thigh.  […]

Suzie’s House 58: At Cross Purposes

 As Miranda stood to leave, Christina and Cindy paused at the door of the Caribou Bar, glancing around the small, dim interior.  “Hey, Christina!” the bartender called.  “You know this lady?”  He jerked a thumb toward Miranda. Miranda waited tensely for the moment they recognized her.  It wasn’t long in coming. The two women put their heads together.  Cindy pointed at Miranda.  Christina  glanced behind her at the door as if considering escape.  Then the two of women advanced on […]

Suzie’s House 57: Miranda at the Caribou

You know, Miranda’s a big girl.  Sure she left the Cardinal Bar with a bit of attitude, but that doesn’t mean she HAS to get into trouble.  Does it? “Come on, Baby.  What’s the matter?  ‘My not good enough for you?” A month ago, Miranda might have considered the man.  He had a good head of hair, broad shoulders, a nice tan, and strong jaw.  He also had a full compliment of alcoholic fumes.   He was already sitting at the […]

Suzie’s House 56: Dancing Around the Subject

 In last week’s episode Drew caught Suzie and Miranda sneaking out to investigate Sean and Joseph.  He was aware of what they were doing, but believed they would be safe enough, so he didn’t try to stop them.  He joined them instead. “I thought you said they were at the Caribou.”  Suzie leaned across the little table, and shoved aside an empty beer bottle to hiss in Miranda’s ear.  Actually, yell with restraint so as to be heard over the music […]

Suzie’s House 55: Ladie’s Night Out

  We left off last week with Drew catching Miranda and Suzie in the kitchen while they were trying to sneak out.  “Who are you supposed to be?  Emma Peel?”  Drew eyed Miranda’s outfit with mild interest.  She looked like she was playing the part of a cat burglar.  Not a real cat burglar.  A real one wouldn’t wear patent leather.  Too shiny. “This is the latest fashion down at the Cardinal.” “You’re going to a bar now?”  Actually, she […]

Suzie’s House 53: A Little Conspiracy

  In last week’s episode of Suzie’s House, Suzie decided to take on the case against the red headed men regardless of how Drew feels about it. Suzie tried to sneek out of the kitchen and down the hall, but heard Drew’s footsteps right behind her. She couldn’t let him follow, not for what she had in mind. “Aren’t you cook tonight,” she asked. Drew hesitated in the doorway.  “Yes?  So?” “It’s already 5:30.  I don’t know what you plan […]

Suzie’s House 52: Mixed Up With Muffins

When we left off last week Ben had just left and the remaining members of the house were discussing the two red-headed men, trying to sort out which had done what to various members of the household.  Suzie headed off to the kitchen, and Drew soon followed. Suzie pulled out the restaurant bowl – a stainless steal bowl nearly two feet wide from rim to rim.  She didn’t even bother to get the recipe from the file.  She had dumped […]

Suzie’s House 51: Something to Think About

  In last week’s episode of Suzie’s House, Christina, the CIA agent, pays a visit.  While she’s there, Suzie calls Ben’s father to have him come take Ben permanently.  Drew watched Vin watch Miranda as they sat in the living room waiting for Suzie.  Poor Vin.  He wanted so much from Miranda, who would give so little.  They were both on the couch, but might as well be miles apart. “What do you think?”  Drew asked as soon as the […]

Suzie’s House #41: Coming to the Point

I know, it takes me forever to – ehem – come to the point.  But I’m there now.  So Suzie isn’t here.  It’s on the newsletter this week.   If you would like to receive this week’s episode and you have not signed up for the newsletter at Suzies_House-Subscribe@Yahoo!Groups.com  then please contact me at Alice Audrey 1 @ yahoo . com, without the spaces of course.  Provided you are over 18 I will be glad to send it to you.   […]

Suzie’s House 40: Cat Scratch Fever

 We continue from last week when Miranda went down stairs to check on Vin. Vin explored every facet of Miranda as he kissed her.  She smelled of something soft and sensual, not tart or obnoxiously floral like some of her perfume.  She tasted sweet and a little musky, and so sexy he could hardly stand it. (Editorial note:  Hmmmm… to newsletter, or not to newsletter?  That is the question.  I think… not, but my younger readers might want to skip […]

Suzie’s House 39 : Good Intentions

  Remember how Miranda went stomping upstairs after Vin fell asleep on the couch while she poured out her heart to him?  That was the same night Ben walked home from his father’s house.  We now return to Miranda shortly after she went upstairs.  Yes, it was a busy night. Miranda pulled a nightgown over her head, then adjusted the layers of filmy fabric and demure lace to hang straight from low cut bodice to her bare toes.  She opened […]
