Wrapped in Him

She'd already given him control, which he took without question. She'd given him her body, which he gladly accepted. Now, wrapped in his arms, she felt both completely safe and in mortal danger. Everything he told her suggested that he would never let harm befall her and she was his to protect. So why did she feel like that promise wouldn't be pain free? It was then that the graze of his fangs on her shoulder sent shivers down her spine, but rather than try to escape, she leaned her head to let him take the only thing she hadn't already given.

His Pet

It was unspoken, neither had to say it. They took their roles naturally but it wasn't about the needs of either, it was about the needs of both. He was her protector, her provider, her purpose and he gave her as much as she gave to him in her subservience.

No. 9 Bar

And so it starts. With the acquisition of the most suitable building on the square and a lot of renovation work, the first part of the transformations had been completed. The dark corners and loose inhibitions would become a perfect hunting ground while the upstairs club would bring in a younger crowd that lived later on into the night. As the saying goes, "Build it and they will come."

No.9 Bar and the square

It's cold out there

Another winter, another year over, another year older. And what seems to stand out the most is the coldness of it all. Walking these streets, hearing the faint crunch of snow under foot, Nathaniel looks around at the decrepit, decaying streets that once were filled with vibrant life. Could it be his presence? Did death really follow wherever he wandered?

 Taking the long road, he glanced to the dilapidated houses and defaced shop fronts before stopping to look back along the railings of the park in silence, where children's laughter once rang out through the day. Surely, even in the snow, there should be laughter and play?

After rounding the corner, seeing the abandoned vehicles, he couldn't help but appreciate the solitude in a small way. In all honesty, it wasn't Nathaniel that had ruined this neighbourhood, it was those who took over once they'd left.

Perhaps there was hope though. He knew one way to drive out those that had ruined the area and it would take very little on his part. As dark as the acts may be, it's always possible to find such beauty in dark times.

Finally approaching his destination, sliding the key into the lock, he smiled to himself. Things were about to change, that he knew as he looked out of the window at the square. Just you wait.

Paradise Lost in SL

Many of you may be aware of a performance that occurred last year, an SL first that was hailed by many as a creative masterpiece. Having been part of said event was an absolute honour for me and I have to thank those who gave me the opportunity to do so.

This amazing story, as depicted by the wonderful Basilique Performing Arts group, shows the story of Adam and Eve and how they fell from God's favour. The story is brilliantly formed from John Milton's work and moves gracefully along to the sound of Mozart's Requiem, capturing the raw power of each scene in graphic detail.

Canary 'Becky' Beck is now pleased to announce that for this one week it will be free to register on her website to watch the motion picture of the event. All you have to do is visit her site and follow the instructions here.

Act now, because it is only free until the 19th of September. The film will be available after this date when a ticket is purchased. The post on her blog goes on to state that there will also be an in-world screening of the performance.

Please, please, please show your support for this amazing show. It was a pleasure to be in, it was a pleasure to watch and it is a pleasure to advertise here. Don't forget to watch out for my name in the credits!

No time to be shy!

Vanity is a funny thing. It drives us to hide ourselves when we believe we are to be ashamed and to strive to be seen when we feel we have something worth seeing. Sometimes, it's the opposite that makes us hide too, knowing we have something beautiful but hiding it out of embarrassment, even from those who have already seen and felt its beauty.
