Will wasn’t entirely sure what to make of his life when he woke up in the morning, but both April and Lacey were both still there. At some point during the night, the two girls must have gotten up and bandaged April’s neck. He wasn’t entirely sure why he’d done that on both of the girls’ fir...

Well, most recent chapter of Breakpoint dropped for Tier 2 subscribers and up, and hopefully everyone's getting a kick out of that. That story in particular lets me stretch some muscles I haven't had a chance to use in a while. The story's a slow burn, but I feel like there's so much happening beneath the surface that it's tough...

“You have any idea how much money we’re probably looking at right now?” Harry said to the two women with him. “I mean, assuming we could get it out of here and back to civilization of some kind.”

By the time his third Midas Day rolled around, Kevin was getting more annoyed with the whole thing than he’d expected to be. The idea of literally every woman on the planet lusting after him was amusing in concept, but in execution, it meant the whole day was completely shot, and he...

By morning, Andy had begun to form a handful of ideas. That meant he was up and out of bed uncharacteristically early for a Sunday. He was particularly proud of how he was able to extricate himself from the pile of bodies without so much as a stir. In fact, while all the gir...

I've been bad about this, so let's get back into the swing of things. I've listed all the members of Team Rook who don't have a 1-page profile for them done yet, with the exception of Piper, just because I don't know what I would put in Piper's Profile that wasn't already in her 5-part sidestory.

The last twelve hours had been rather harsh for Doctor Adam McCallister. He’d been given time to spend with Dasha, who had been teary and joyous that he was, in fact, still alive and hadn’t been overly harmed by their captors. And they’d redosed her, in a sexual encounter that felt b...

The summer break wasn’t really a ‘break’ so much as it was a ‘light’ period. As Dr. Igarashi had told me, I did need to have classes during the summer, but the schedule was much lighter, and as such, it meant I only really needed to be in classrooms two day...

Andy woke up at home in his own bed, and the first thing he did was glance at his watch, which told him he’d slept about 16 hours. It was just about noon the day after he’d gone to get Mali and Melody, and he felt more refreshed than he’d felt in a long while. His body f...

Despite the fact that it was just like any other party he’d gone to in his college career, there was something like the weight of expectations hanging over the head of this one.
