It was just another sleepy Saturday night in a dirtwater Oklahoma town until Rick made a bet he couldn't cover. The owner of the tavern gave Rick two options: Hand over the keys to his pickup, or play one more game of pool for even higher stakes -- Rick's girlfriend, Jess. "Sacrificing Jess" is an erotic novellete approximately 35 pages in length and not suitable for minors. EXCERPT: Jess leaned forward in her chair and watched Orvy break. The two-ball rolled into a corner pocket. Jess felt her face flush a bit. It surprised her, how one ball in the pocket made her feel like she was undressing one piece at a time. Orvy didn't even look at Jess, though he did signal to his manager, Tyler, and told him to come over. “Tyler, get the bar cleared out. It's already five minutes past closing time.” “Sure thing, Orvy,” Tyler said. Jess stared at Tyler as he walked back over to the bar to shoo out the remaining few customers. He was big, maybe six-five, and built like 220 pounds of wound steel. Jess knew he lifted weights and it showed in his broad shoulders that tapered off down to his surprisingly slim waist for a giant like Tyler. Thing is, he had a face that would cause a barking dog to hide its head under its paws and whimper. He was everything you wanted in a bar room manager. Big and strong enough to keep everyone in line, the help and the customers, and scary ugly for those few that needed a little more persuasion. Jess thought about Tyler, what he would do to her, imagined his powerful grip on her ankles to spread her legs and push them down near her head, opening her up completely. One part of her shuddered and another part flushed with heat.
