Hello and welcome to Six Sentence Sunday. Please follow the link to find the complete list of very talented authors or search #sixsunday on twitter.
This week after Anna and the two men have disappeared upstairs we are listening to the reaction of the administrator of the chess championship. Anna has found a sense of freedom in the arms of her lovers but her fate as the reigning champion is now threatened.
I think this might become a separate chapter or short work and I’ll call it Whisper
—————————–
“Did you see her?!” Snarled the the administrator, tapping his pencil until the point snapped. “She’s poison. Bewitching Louie and that other gentleman, forcing them to participate in her sordid charades,” his face crumpling in disgust. ‘It is not the behaviour of a champion. Something must be done.”

Thank you to everyone who comes over each week and a warm welcome to new readers. I hope you have enjoyed my six today.

Romancing Alix 
Oh dear, yes indeed… she is terribly naughty! Probably the administrator is just jealous …not having lead in his own pencil ha ha ! Great idea of the offshoot Alix, love the title too! :)
I like the power in the six and I can feel the anger. As always, a great job.
She’s bewitched them all right! But I don’t think they’re complaining!!!

Sounds like she’s in real trouble now. Great six!
Oh, love it! Yay for conflict! :)
“her sordid charades” – fantastic! I would like to have some sordid charades too! They sound like fun.
Sharp writing. Love it.
Oh, yeah. They were sooo forced.
I think she’s in trouble!
Trouble is brewing… Strong six – I could feel his recriminations!
Wow, great lead in to an external conflict. Great six, Alix!
Oh dear, I think the Administrator is going to be the baddie of the piece! Great snippet!
Bet he wishes she’d taken him upstairs! Did he stop to think she might give chess a better reputation? LOL Nice offshoot.
Bewitched? Hmmphh. Seems to me they were pretty excited about it. She’s a champion of something, that’s for sure! ;-)
Something must be done… How about getting laid! LOL
she sounds like a campion to me…. why should one outrule the other?
I love the word “bewitching”–and I can’t wait to see what happens.
Yeah…cause how on earth can a woman be BOTH a sexy temptress AND a chess champion? Inconceivable (she says in her best Princess Bride voice). Something must be done!! LOL
Sounds like a tense moment. Great six.
She’s a CHESS CHAMPION? How did I not know that? That is fascinating. Tell me more!
;) Louie who we first met in Positional Sacrifice was her opponent in the championship. The second gentleman is the sexy handsome stranger from Coffeehouse Play who turned up at the awards night..she is a fascinating heroine, I hope.
Love the snapping pencil tip—great prop.
LOL Sounds like she’s in trouble!
Love your word choices: poison, bewitching, sordid charades. Good stuff.
wow–impressive. well done.
We always learned you have to look out for those quiet, intelligent types. Behind closed doors… Never thought of a chess champion that way.
It sounds like he might be a little jealous he wasn’t invited to the charades.
Oh, Alix, I love this outside look. Makes the story that much more interesting and full. Fantastic. It’s also a good look at how people question women who are sexually liberated versus had it been a man, people wouldn’t think twice. Great six.
Why do I get the feeling she’s checkmated them all!? Great six, Alix!
Great six! I think I’ll enjoy her “sordid charades”! Sounds yummy!
His venom comes through so clearly. Loved the visual of his face crumpling with disgust, excellent.
What a bitter man the administrator is. You’ve painted us a word picture without resorting to a physical description. Excellent writing!
Oh nice conflict!
Interesting take on the male point of view–it’s always the woman who is to blame. Would he have been nearly so upset if one of the men had won and taken a woman (or two) upstairs?
He seems to be the only one with a problem. He just needs to put more energy into his own affairs, right? Great six!
Love his jealousy! He wants her, maybe he doesn’t realise it yet!
Love the conflict, Alix. I think she is about to get checkmate! Well done!
I disagree. I think it is the behavior of a champion. Jeez. If the champion were a male, the administrator would be applauding, making jokes about how supreme the champion is both on and off the board. Oops. I think your six pushed some of my buttons. Well done! ;-)
Yes, au contraire, this is champion behavior!!
Strong sense of emotion, definitely! Thanks for sharing. :)
Nice display of anger. Good job!
Bitter much? LOL. Besides, MISbehavior rocks out behavior any day of the week — bewitching, indeed! *grin*
You can hear the prudish undertones loud and clear :)
Loved it Alix! I definitely felt the emotion!
I can definitely picture the old grump and his pencil. Great job.
Ooh, I’m sensing some conflict here! Very nice! Thanks for sharing!
‘sordid charades’? Do I sense a hint of jealousy? Maybe he needs to go keep an eye on her. Catch her in the act, so to speak. ;)
Interesting turn!
He’s just wishing it was him ;)
Great six!
oooh, the champion of what? A nice set up for some conflict.
Heh, sounds like the administrator is jealous!
LOL! sex upstairs at a chess tournament! I have been to many chess tournaments (as a chess widow, I don’t play), and so often I was the only female there, I have to imagine that there would be a mass exodus to listen outside of whatever room Anna had disappeared to, at the very least there would be chess players casually walking past the door in question with their ears peeled!
Oh the things men say when they want some! ;) I liked this six because it gives a wider view of what’s going on in the story. Well done, Alix. :)
Ooh, yummy stuff! Well done ;)
“Sordid charades”? Oh dear!
