I had to wince at the lengthy pause. That had been an awful lot of questions, and I had little doubt they had sent Mia into a fit of tics. Which was not to say that I was not also curious. I wanted to know what the Faen was telling her almost as much as I wanted Lynnria to quit being distracted and finish the job!

2023-03-06 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View Post“Aww… come on,” Mia replied, pouting. “You deliberately avoided the question.”
“And now you’re deliberately avoiding answering it,” I shot back. “Besides, I thought you liked it when I did that. You said it was cute.”
“I did not. I said it was sweet! Y...

[A minor note: Lynnria's ears are much longer and more pointed, and her breasts are in no way this big, but I got tired of fighting with the program. It was a struggle just to get a result with purple hair and a ponytail.]

2023-03-01 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostWith a sigh, I ran my fingers over my scalp. Why did everything have to be so complicated? It seemed as though every question answered only opened up about a thousand more. Maybe that was why Bline hated them so much. She must have felt like a kindergarten teacher with the whole of the world constantly shouting why, w...
2023-02-27 06:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostJax’s face contorted into a mass of confusion. “That don’t have nothing to do with—what did ye mean about our natures?! What looping holes?”
“It’s loopholes—mangina knobbler!”
I snorted with laughter before I could stop myself. “Sorry,” I said again.
Mia let out a mournful sigh. ...
2023-02-24 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostOn reading the card, my first reaction was to scrub a very tired hand over my face and sigh. I should have been absolutely livid. And I would have save for one thing.
The skill was… good. Like really fucking good. With this one spell, Mia had nearly doubled my combat potential.
It was such an obviou...
2023-02-22 06:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostThat went over about as well as one might reasonably expect. And being the subject of the ensuing, I felt my wisest move was to crawl under the bed and dig my way to safety. However, lacking the necessary tools, I settled for the far less appealing option of holding very still and waiting for the lilim to return to sanity. 2023-02-20 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View Post
This one is going to be broken up into 5 sub-chapters.
Also, just as an FYI, I will be opening up the all-in-one version of previous chapters to All Access Patrons once all sub-chapters have been released. There isn't much need for them to be broken up like that in the backlog, and it makes the reading experience better for those who...

Have you ever seen one of those madcap comedies, like ‘It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World’ or ‘What’s up, Doc?’ If not, I would highly recommend them. Great fun.
Their plots tend to revolve around a confusing series of dispara...
2023-02-17 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostFor some while after, we lay there panting, just enjoying the afterglow. I had collapsed listlessly over top of her, but she did not utter a peep of complaint. She seemed content to let me enjoy her softness… though as often happened when we coupled, she had yet to release me, so I would not have been able to move even if I had wanted.

2023-02-15 06:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostTorpor released me gradually, awakening dormant muscles one at a time. First a toe. Then a leg.
Faded remnants of dreams danced behind my eyelids while I waited. Endless hallways. A ghost town. That one heist thing in Ecuador, but where all the money had been replaced by chewing gum.
That had been weird. But pretty cool.

2023-02-13 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View Post“Doubt all you like. I’m going in,” Arx announced, heedless.
Mia shifted her gaze from the woman’s receding form to the base of the tree. A couple of roots had twisted about an old outgrowth that had since rotted away, leaving a hole in its wake. It was just large enough to allow a person inside without difficulty, though she notic...

“‘Stits…” Arx swore under her breath as she gazed upward.
“Thank you,” Mia replied absently, her own eyes parallel to the Do-lilim’s.
For a moment, Arx continued staring up at the giant tree. It was as big around as a house and...

The hole could not do much more than be a hole, but it certainly gave the impression that it wanted to shrink from her outrage. None of this was its fault, it seemed to complain.
To one side, a ...
2023-02-06 06:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostKeeping my face carefully neutral, I lifted my hand and extended it toward her, fully intending to stop before anything happened. However, when I saw the look in her eyes… the slight hitch in her breath, the way her shoulders bunched together, her lips parting in anticipation, somehow I forgot I was only pretending.
As gently as ca...
2023-02-03 06:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostMy vision swam for a few moments as I reoriented myself. The last thing I remembered, I had been tackled to the ground by an extremely enthusiastic—and exceedingly topless—Jax.
I swear… one of these days, those girls are going to get me lynched.
Slowly, I spun on a heel just to take in my surrou...
2023-02-01 06:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostAs promised, here is chapter 40, part 2. It should have released on Monday, 12am CST. (If you are a VIP, ignore this. You've read it already.) Again, sorry to everyone else, but you did vote for this. I can't think of a better way to maintain a set schedule.
