Always Seen, But Never Known
I didn't make up my mind until Johnson tested my patience. It cemented my final decision, as an adult raccoon and a young man struggling to survive D.C. I was exhausted, unfocused, more than hungry, feeling...
Alaskan Love
Outside the cabin, the wind howled; inside, the fire was nearly out. Rather than let it be snuffed out, I carefully dropped another log atop the embers to feed the flames, and they roared back to life. Jared still hadn't returned yet from his...
Key to a Certain Lock
Fuck it. I had nothing to lose. "Hey, Dean, uh...can I ask you a question?" The aloof Mexican wolf looked at me from across the small office. "What is it?" He asked in slight disinterest, returning to his laptop on the conference table. "I'm...
Loverhood's Beginning: Chapter 5 - Smells Like Teen Spirit

Beloved Father and Lover

Twinks Across America: Ch. 51 - D.C. (Epilogue)
"What happens in D.C. stays in D.C." What an American saying. A part of me missed the independence and routine of driving around in the rented Fjord truck, but as bittersweet as it felt to turn it back in to the Docklands dealership in Maine, I...
Twinks Across America: Ch. 50 - Maine
As a final goodbye to my reliable transport, I invited a jaguar twink for an illicit shag in the Fjord truck's tailgate. Not long after stopping at a tiny gas station a kilometer within Maine, I filled up the gas tank, then cruised through the profiles...
Twinks Across America: Ch. 49 - New Hampshire
New Hampshire towns definitely lived up to the New England aesthetic. The kind that I often found in old American movies portraying the perfect place to raise a family. Big houses with big front and back yards, a close-knit main street full of downtown...
