    The trauma twins bit made me laugh out loud. Bless.

    Chapter 21

    “You ran away like a bitch. Got it. Got it.” I stared up at the ceiling as I processed everything Alec had told me. I wasn’t sure where to go with this information. It seemed Alec had decided on pursuing something with Finn. Even if he didn’t want to admit it. They’d met up more than once. Alec had gone to Finn’s brother’s house. That had led to them making out and having to be separated before they went at it. Then, realizing what he’d done, he’d run. He was always running from Finn. Good thing

    @weinerdog I think I'd always planned for it to be a part of Julie's redemption arc. Tbh I don't really remember. It's been done for a hot minute now and I have the memory of a goldfish

    @weinerdog Do you mean her taking him to the club or her interaction with people within the club?

    Chapter 20

    I hadn’t heard much from Alec the rest of the day. While I was concerned, I’d also been thoroughly distracted by my mother dragging me around. I swear, I’d been paraded around every public area possible and as embarrassing as it was, it was also responsible partly for the warm feeling in my chest. My mother knew everyone in our town. Sunnyside was like that. She had seemingly made it her mission to show me off to everyone who recognized us, singing my praises to everyone who would listen. A few

    @drpaladin @weinerdog Kenji and Julie do meet and while she manages to avoid being racist, the meeting is still mortifying for River

    Chapter 19

    I should really start a mental countdown for when Alec’s nerves short-circuited his entire system. We’d not even had much trouble with the airport, and he looked like he was ready to explode. I was also a bit nervous, but I had far worse things on my mind. Like how I’d pretty much been ignoring Kenji since the morning Alec called me about his mother. Well, not fully ignoring. I answered him. In the shittiest, most childish way possible. I didn’t think he’d gotten more than a one-word response fo

    @CincyKris I dunno if vulnerable would be the right word 🥲

    @Darryl62 I am making all the haste! The chapters that involve a lot of the bits from IHTT are going to come faster since I don't have to do nearly as much editing if that helps 😅 @weinerdog can advise that my darling River did not tell Jiji where he was going or the specifics of what was happening 😁 @drpaladin hitting Kenji-ill advised really

    Chapter 18

    The most unusual things started to become normal after that night. I still met Kenji in hotels for scenes, but when he was away, he started playing a much more active role in my day-to-day life. He’d even helped me shoot pictures one weekend to post on my site. He was no Alec, but they’d turned out really well surprisingly. There were times I still struggled with it. I was a full-grown adult. Why did I need another adult to take over and keep me on track? Shaking my head, I added shading to a de

    Chapter 17

    Tapping at the tablet, I took the customer’s card. He was talking, smiling at me and thanking me for the tribal band curling around his bicep. I smiled and tried to put on my, “normal, well-adjusted human” mask. It seemed to fool him, and I watched him wave before disappearing out the front door. Cameron wasn’t at the front, so I assumed he was in the tiny room we used for piercings. There was the soothing buzzing coming from the back of the shop that let me know Lukas was working. I watche

    [K: How're you feeling? Did you sleep well when you got home?] He'd sent the text at 5:30 in the morning. I did not understand how humans functioned that early in the morning. It was 9:00 now and still wasn't convinced this was an acceptable hour to awaken. Rolling over, I pulled my comforter up to my chin and typed out a quick response. Kenji had probably been at work for a couple hours at this point. Who knew when I'd get a response? Maybe I could go back to sleep? [R: Fine. No worri

    @weinerdog well...he's just a Dom and aftercare is part of scenes. So he's doing what he should have. That being said, he was very quick to peace out @VBlew River is in unsafe waters. The thirst for Finny never really went away for our boy Alec

    Chapter 15

    Twisting my torso a bit, I glanced to the screen to see if it helped the pose. Shifting a bit more, I heard the shutter of the camera. This went on for several more positions and pictures. Alec was staring at me with his weird photographer expression. I think he did the same thing I did. He shut down the part of his brain that recognized me as a friend so he could be objective. He tapped my foot and moved it where he wanted. We were mostly quiet. We had been since I’d gotten dressed and spr

    @akascrubber just fyi, the meeting wasn't at Xi. Not sure if that matters, just wanted to clarify

    Chapter 14

    It’d taken me a solid hour and half to get through the paperwork I’d had to read and sign. Afterward, I’d been presented with a neat list of Kenji’s “hard” and “soft” limits. I got to pick my safe word, “Fungus” and learned his was “Ginger”. It all made sense. Of course, both parties needed to be able to stop any activity. It didn’t matter if Kenji was technically in a position of power. He could still be pushed too far, or maybe he’d think I was pushing myself too far. The latter sounded far to

    Chapter 13

    I could hear a dull roar as the blood rushed to my ears. My eyes were locked on impossibly dark ones. I had registered that his hand was gripping my hair at the back of my head, holding my head immobile. It was strange. Part of me felt like I should be startled. He’d moved so fast. His grip was so tight. We didn’t know each other. This was our first real meeting as more than a customer/employee interaction. I should be weirded out. Upset perhaps. Maybe even angry. Who did this man think he was?
