Working Hard part 3
3. "No clubs?" I asked for the hundredth time. Mick was either a prude or a recovering alcoholic. It wasn't a big deal. I was a bad enough influence to overcome either of those obstacles. I already made some progress to where he stopped...
A Fox Behind Bars part 27
27. Things were not as bad as I feared. Dimitri and I stayed up half the night for his first lesson. He was _functionally_ illiterate I discovered. That was why he'd been able to hide it from everyone. He knew his numbers, and could...
A Fox Behind Bars part 26
26. The Yard was warming up. I guessed maybe another week and I wouldn't have to wear a jacket anymore. I could hardly wait. Vince and his pack were waiting for us outside the doors. My eyes locked on Hash and I had to stop myself from...
Working Hard part 2
2. My headset never sat well with horns. It was an issue I knew would only get worse as they grew. Yes, I could file them like a lot of dragons do, but they would just grow back, leaving me in an endless cycle of inconvenience. Might as...

Working Hard part 7
7. It was a dream come true. Mick and I were halfway into spending our whole weekend fucking like proverbial feral bunnies. I'll admit, Mick is not as... experienced, as many of my previous partners, but he is a trainable dragon. And what he...
A Fox Behind Bars part 33
33. I sat helpless at the table. Once again I had to play spectator as my fate was in the hands of another. This time it was in the hands of Jake. He held the letter on which Hash had snuck a love note to me. If he read it to Dimitri, I had no...
A Fox Behind Bars part 32
32. I saw Herb was back in his cell. His hand was in a brace and his fingers were wrapped. It was only a glimpse I got as I walked behind Dimitri back to our cell after the showers. Maybe it was the lingering endorphins from the great sex...
Working Hard part 5
5. "I did the right thing? Right?" I asked the jackal sitting on the bus seat next to me. "I mean, it wasn't fair of me to use my sexual wiles like that. He's been telling me all week he wants to wait 'til Friday. What kind of a boyfriend would...
