Shifter, Chapter 1: Dain
(The names in this story were derived from a semi-random process. The similarity of names with any other character or person is strictly coincidental.) Dain had always been a minor shifter, although he and most other people didn't really know what...
A Day in Heat
Her heat had started before she even awoke, but it was made immediately obvious by the manner of her awakening. The motion which awakened her was that of her partner grabbing her shoulder, firmly, and turning her over onto her stomach. She made a...
Adaptation

Heat
(_Note:_ _Given their extremely unusual "family" dynamic, I'm not sure if the incest tag is precisely appropriate, but I'm including it to be on the safe side._) After that initial meeting, the routine for Freddie and his siblings began to undergo...
