“My luck has been absolute shit since getting dragged into this mess,” Bekksie thought, gnawing uselessly at the wooden bit between her teeth. The wood felt like it was hard as a rock! Her fingers ached from the way they’d been tied, as did her arms and legs, and she was basting in sweat inside the stout sack the bandits had stuffed her in. “What’s the big deal? One little cut and this guy has it...
“You need not keep your secret from me, my dear Astrid. I know what thoughts drive you, deep down. You are a woman, after all, beneath all of that warrior’s bravado. Why run from your true nature? Why continue to struggle against what you are?” Astrid shook her head, biting down on the thick ring that had been wedged between her teeth and secured there with a leather strap around her head. The...
“Wouldn’t it be better to travel at night, out of this accursed sun?” Astrid snarled as she settled the last of the wine casks into the wagon, having no trouble hefting them given her brutish nature. She stepped back and wiped sweat from her face, flung it off her hands onto the packed stones at her feet, just off the dock. Galvaera, beyond fed up with her situation as it was, had little patience...
The morning sun was still low over the width of the Su’Ra River, and dozens of vessels crowded the invisible and rarely obeyed lanes of travel as they moved in and out of Kifu’Nemhat, the steady winds blowing in from the Sobe’kaimun Sea making travel upriver a mostly painless affair. Usually. Already the shimmer of heat on the far horizon to the south formed, the day’s scorching heat already well...
A Brief Conversation with Momo-chan Jennifer Tempest glared silently at the glistening, latex-covered figure in the restraint chair in front of her. The only part of the woman that wasn’t coated entirely in black, polished latex was her head, which was mostly covered by her heavy-duty gas mask, the dark lenses staring back at Jennifer with a cold detachment. The woman’s hair was a hot pink...

Oh my god! They just won’t stop!” Gabby looked at the comm panel in front of her and let out an exasperated sigh...
House Call Laura sighed as she sank onto the couch, the coolness of the soft material soothing some of the day’s aches. She crossed her legs, rubbing one foot after she plucked her shoe off, easing away the fatigue. It had been a long, tiring day spent working on her latest case at the SCPD, and even with her enhanced stamina from her burgeoning powers as Gun Bunny, she was tired. She glanced...
Show Some Restraint Voices…voices in the dark. Far away, down a tunnel? In another room? A ringing sound nearly drowned them out. “Just a few more minutes…” The voices wouldn’t stop. “Why are you not letting me sleep? Just shut up already!” And they were getting closer, louder. “…other places for working out baser aggressions, at least a dozen that I’m aware of in Sentinel City. It...
Big Fight Night “What the hell did you just say?!” Cat snarled, slamming her fists onto the tabletop, causing her dishes to clatter, her drink nearly toppling to the floor. She was on her feet and hadn’t realized it, muscles tensed and ready for a fight. The redheaded brute of a woman who had just strode in with a half dozen women behind her rested her meaty hands on her hips and smirked down at...
Valefar System, Valefar V, Paradise City Inside The Devil’s Watering Hole, 7:30PM local “I should never have come back here,” Felicity thought sourly, biting down on the rubber ball wedged behind her teeth, gagging as it forced the attached phallic plug deeper into her throat. “Damn that devil!” It wasn’t the first time she’d had those thoughts, and it surely wouldn’t be the last. She...
